Passport to Oddworld Screenshots
 
I took some screenshots from the video "Passport to Oddworld." I noticed some of you couldn't view it in any form, so this might be as close as you will get to the real deal.

Thanks Sydney they're great. I'm sure the others will really appreciate it too.

Wow... Sydney... those are awesome!!!

How did you manage the screenshots though? The night that video went up I tried for over half an hour to get screenshots so that I could post them, but every time I just got a black screen where the movie should be.

I even downloaded and installed a screen capture program, but it gave the same result.

Any suggestions? Do you have a program that you use that overrides Media Player doing this.

That's exactly what has happened to me many times in the past. I've found that sometimes you can take screenshots, while other times you can not. The same is with QuickTime movies too.

I don't know why it behaves like this.

Great screenshots! Thanks, Sydney. http://www.oddworldian.net/oddworldf...ons/icon10.gif
Two of the screenshots show mudokons close-ups. It seems that OWI had remodeled the mudokons, changing little details of their anatomy.

Their necks are twice as long as usual in this screenshot:

This one shows Abe and a green friend. Both seem more skinny and their heads are more oval then usual.

I guess mudokons are having a bad time under the Magog Cartel management. They look as if they haven't ate in ages... http://www.oddworldian.net/oddworldf...ons/icon10.gif

I thought that the mudukons looked as good as could be expected. If they looked a little strange to you it was probly just the cammra angle that they where being seen from. Also remember that mudukons are not humans and therefore they should look a little strange to us. :D

I ws not complaining about that Oddguy. They look great, as weird as always.

All I said was that they are a little bit changed from the ones of Abe's Oddysee and Abe's Exoddus.

I like them very much better this new way.

Super! I have seen the video once (on a friend's PC). Now that I have these screenshots I can see the new stuff again and again. Thanx.
