Article: Cool camera Angles - Part 2

May 30, 2007

A day late, but it’s finally here! The continued article about cool camera angles from last week! 

Written by Alcator.

Last week, I presented you with some tips on good camera angles and work with the camera in replays in general.

This week, the article won’t require much reading, although eyes should be first cleaned with toothbrushes (and for those cyborgs among you, toggle image filtering off ;) )

I’ll present you with a set of images with short commentaries about where such shot/angle may be useful, where it definitely shouldn’t be used, etc. Here we go…

Driver’s Contest II - The Final Results!

May 28, 2007

You all know by now that the past few weeks the second edition of the Driver’s Contest was hosted by the TMU Blog. It’s been an exciting journey, from the elimination of the first bunch of participants, to the quarterfinals with the eight remaining players, to the semifinals with four contestants left, and finally, last week, the final round between -Homie- and Zooz.

The top prize is 5,000 coppers and 3,000 for second place. The results were not supposed to be delivered until tomorrow, but as the two finalists have already sent in their replays, you get the news already today :D So without further ado, the winner of the Driver’s Contest II is:

TMU Blog Forum!

May 26, 2007

A while ago a discussion regarding a TMU Blog Forum was started. Today, this forum has become reality!

Before you go “Oh no, not another TM forum for me to check!“, let me point out that this is not just another forum. In fact, what you can usually do on a forum is not possible to do at this forum. There are no general discussion threads, there’s no place for you to showcase your TM creations, and you won’t be able to play any “spam games”.
