Nice effort, especially for a first shot!
Can I ask what system specs you have? To me, the flight seemed a little
jerky, and not completely smooth. Was this just because of the capture
software, or is it always like that? Sometimes it's better to cut back
on a little of the eye candy, like clouds etc to give better and
smoother flight, especially for making videos.
I really enjoyed the music too!
Looking forward to seeing more of this from you.

Nice for a first try :o)

Like CL said, turn off the clouds, and ease up on the Autogen, to get better
framerates. 25fps beats eyecandy anny time ;o)

Allso you need to credit the music in the final text, it's rude to only
credit the crew.

Nice to see a Dash-8 using all 3 landing gears for a change ;o)

Quite good but I would have liked less of the music and more speech e.g.
radio comms. Smile

If that was your first attempt at making a flight sim video, it was a
very good effort indeed.

I started from scratch a couple of years ago, and my first effort, which
I posted here was a lot worse than that. Smile .....And I am still
learning.

If you would like people on this NG to offer you constructive advice, to
help you improve, you must ask for it; as I have found the majority of
folks on this NG are very polite will not offer advice or point out
mistakes unless you ask them.

One piece of advice I was given in my early days, from Quilly if I my
memory is correct, is to try and make the majority of your scenes no
more than five seconds long. At the time that did not make sense to
me.....it does now.... thanks Quilly. For example, in your video, after
take off at 1.32 your scene does not change until 2.06, that's 34
seconds long! If you had broken that scene into 5 second 'slots', say a
different view each slot, it would have been a lot more appealing. Makes
for hard work though......... I know!

Anyway, well done. I look forward to you posting more in the future.

The difference between flight attendants and jet engines, is that the
engine usually quits whining when it gets to the gate!

I second what Mike said about breaking up the video. I have never made one
but just as a viewer I found myself getting slightly bothered by the
continual panning. Didn't really associate it until Mike's post and I went
back and looked at one of his and the difference became clear.

For your first attempt it was very good and mostly enjoyable to watch.

Thanks for all the valued input. I will certainly apply all tips in my
next one. They are greatly appreciated.

Booh-yah!!
You're bad bad man, Tommy C! <g>

Yeah, lately those Dash-8 landings were starting to look like a one-legged
duck landing on water. Smile
