Oddworld 4: Character Creation IGN insider movie

[Welch's]

Hello, everyone! IGN has a short video, with a little information about Oddword 4. Its still quite interesting for a fan, though.
I'll copy and past what the article said, and shortly I'll have the video for non-IGN insiders to download.

Oddworld 4: Character Creation
Take a look at the character design process from the next Oddworld game.



June 17, 2003 - In case you didn't know, game characters don't grow on trees. We know, it's shocking. Well, there probably have been a couple characters that spawned from trees, but the majority of them are carefully designed, all the way from a light bulb-forming idea to the final rendered polygons.

Production on the next Oddworld game is under way, and with it a new lead character has been born. The following clip is from a Discovery Channel special that's set to air soon, so you'll want to watch for that one. In the meantime, though, check the clip to see what the character creation process on an Oddworld game is like.

That's the question I asked Alf last month, but nobody responded. I'd love to have an "art of" book from Oddworld! They should come out with one!

Hello, folks!

hey, Welch's, unfortunately, my firewall won't let me download ".mov" files. But I figured out how to fool it. Could you put the same file with another name? or ZIP it? This way I could download it. I'd be tremendously grateful.

See ya, folks!

Hey Lampion! Long time, no see! I hope things are going well for you. It's good to see you around again.

Anyway, thanks so much Welch's for uploading the movie for us all. It's a lot better to be able to save something than have to stream it all the time. If I was interested in more "general" games I'd join IGN, but seeing it's only Oddworld and Final Fantasy I'm into ... it doesn't really make sense to subscribe. But maybe w/ more Oddworld stuff it might pay too.

no problem everyone! I plan to make any other Oddworld related IGN insider movies availble to all Oddworld fans! They usually become free anyway.

Lampion I uploaded a zip version of the movie let me know if it works out for you.
