Why, but why???

12345abe · #1 03-22-2007, 04:19 AM

Why didn't Oddworld inhabitants make a 3D Oddworld with the models from cinematics in Abe's Exoddus?!And how can those graphics (in cinematics) work on ps1!?I think cinematics aint normal movies, I think they are scripted or something, can anyone help me out with this?And btw, where can I get ALL the movies from AE and AO?I really need them.They are totally SCREWED!!!Their career is OVER *sobs* and it's all that blue bastard's FAAAUUULLLTTT!!!!!(Just kidding, totally cool I meant)

***Xavier*** · #2 03-22-2007, 05:20 AM

I'm not sure about what you are trying to say...
anyway cinematics are precalculated stuff, so it's logic it can run on the PS1

I'm not sure I understand why you need all the movies of AO and AE, they are n the games

Jordan · #3 03-22-2007, 07:14 AM

I think he means a 3D AO and AE using the models from the cinematics.
And to answer your question Abe, OWI didn't make them 3D because they'd lose fans and they know their fans love the old games.

Wow, this is just a mess. I haven't a clue what you're saying in most of these sentences.

But you could probably find most of the Oddworld cinematics on YouTube. Just search.

Bullet Magnet · #5 03-22-2007, 12:37 PM

Those graphics work on the PS1 because the were pre-rendered. The console was not generating them in real-time like with in-game graphics, there were rendered on a relatively high-spec computer from 3D models to still 2D images, and the movie file is made of many successive frames like these.

12345abe · #6 03-22-2007, 12:41 PM

I found some cinematics on Youtube, but not ALL of them, and i like them, I need them cuz my AO and AE games are OOOOOooold and i cant play 'em, my AO stops when you exit RF to Stockyards, and my AE when you go away from Phleg (when you kill those slogs and jump in the well)I hope they will make an Oddworld that looks pretty same like the cinematics, cuz I just love the graphics

And, can anyone tell me if i can find the security fone cinematics on youtube?AAnd can anyone post the screenshot from AO when you are in the Board room?I'd like to see that I can't remember what it looks like.

Alf Shall Rise · #7 03-22-2007, 12:44 PM

I do believe there are three videos that show all the cinematics of AE. There's also one that shows all of AO. I don't what they're called, lemme find them.

EDIT: Sorry, I can't find them. For an odd reason, there seems to be 5 times more Oddworld videos than usual. But that's a good thing!

12345abe · #8 03-22-2007, 12:46 PM

I think they are deleted or something,I found them once but I didn't "snag" them (with snagit) so i think they aren't there anymore.

And... while you're here, can you tell me how i get new ranks?(zappfly... oddworld inhabitant...)

Alf Shall Rise · #9 03-22-2007, 12:54 PM

Post. That's the simplest way to explain. And for the Oddworld Inhabitant and all, that means people from OWI, or special members. There are Super Moderators, Global Moderator, and some more that I forget. As for us, we're just normal members.

12345abe · #10 03-22-2007, 01:02 PM

But you are the 3rd rank (sniper wasp) how do i get them?And do you know some other page for movies?WHOA!I am now a chippunk!!!I was zappfly till now!!!

snuzi · #11 03-22-2007, 01:23 PM

Your rank changes as you post more. There's no other way for you to alter it, unless you have a custom rank.

And that rank question does not belong in this section, by the way.

12345abe · #12 03-22-2007, 01:57 PM

Okay then, I am now a chippunk!Cause I posted much, btw can anyone of you guys post the screenshot of board room when you get there and the slig smacks you (AO) at the end?And I would also like it big. (big picture) I forgot what it looks like

(and i meant ingame, not the cinematic)

snuzi · #13 03-22-2007, 08:18 PM

Alright, listen. You are posting all of these things in the wrong thread, and you're going way off-topic.

If you want a certain screenshot, there used to be a picture request thread somewhere, but I don't think they're used anymore. If you want the picture that badly, go here and search for it. It might just be there.

Cullen Heath · #14 03-22-2007, 09:15 PM

Snuzi, calm down, he's new. How about instead of just giving him crap, helping him out and directing him to the right place to post these things.

Abe, here are two pictures of the cinematic after that section. I know that you wanted gameplay screens, but maybe you'll like these.

But I was pointing him in the right direction. It just annoys me when new members ask a bunch of questions without even searching the forums for the answers first

Can i watch those movies fullscreen you gave me, xavier?I'd like to snag them! (snagit)Nooo, I now saw that you can download them, don't reply to this Xavier

***Wil*** · #18 03-23-2007, 03:10 AM

Snuzi, the Q&A thread is now the functioning Picture Request thread.

12345abe · #19 03-23-2007, 03:43 AM

I found BEAUTIFUL concept art at the go HERE page you gave me!It is the greatest page someone has ever gave me!Lovely!BTW:Yay!Only 4 posts to 50!

Um, no problem, I guess?

Zerox · #21 03-27-2007, 10:09 AM

If your game glitches at level points, can you not simply use a cheat for level select, or the one to view FMV sequences...?

moxco · #22 03-27-2007, 11:53 AM

Some one should close this. It's gone completly off topic.

LIJI · #23 03-27-2007, 12:21 PM

You can view all movies when you play the game and in the menu do this cheat code:
Hole and press:
Up Left Right Left Right Left Right Down
This will open a Select Movie screen.
Doing the same code but reversed will open a Select Level screen.

12345abe · #24 04-01-2007, 11:08 AM

No, it just doesnt work!!!I typed that cheat about 5 times and my brother too and nothing happened!Can you tell me what happens if I type the cheat correctly?And maybe I have some other version of AE so maybe its a different cheat!

I found another cheat different from yours LIJI:
Hold R1 and press Up, Down, Left, Right, Square, Circle, Triangle, Circle, Square, Circle, Up, Down, Left, Right.
I tried only one cheat, I think I didn't try yours LIJI.Thanx for putting it here!

snuzi · #25 04-01-2007, 12:33 PM

When you type in the cheat, you get to view all the cinematics in the game. Perhaps the reason it didn't work is because you have the PSX version. I believe LIJI gave you the cheat for the computer version.

Arxryl · #26 04-01-2007, 03:00 PM

no, that's the right one. I have the psx version, and it worked. Did you hold all four of the shoulder ubttons down? that may be why it didn't work, and did you make sure you were at the screen where Abe pops out of the hole in the wall and says "hello"?

12345abe · #27 04-02-2007, 04:56 AM

Does the psx version have the widescreen with brown lines up and down?(some kind of lines, like a rope)And snuzi, i meant if abe says something or do an animation.and yes, i was sure

nvm, any cheat doesnt werk!Is there ANOTHER version?

ALL OF THEM???Thank god and thank you I thought only r1!oof thats a relief, im going to try it now.

Nothing happens, so is there ANOTHER cheat for ANOTHER version?How many dang versions are there???

And btw, can I make a topic that will be for my questions (topics) that end up with 2-5 replies?

***Nate*** · #28 04-02-2007, 07:00 PM

12345abe, not one sentence in that post made any sense at all. I know that English is not your first language, but if we can't understand your questions, we can't give you an answer.

12345abe · #29 04-06-2007, 10:58 AM

I just need another cheat if there IS another one.Thatz all!

***Xavier*** · #30 04-06-2007, 01:11 PM

a cheat to do what?
