Our friend from Texas, artist and science-fiction writer born under nickname of C. Shawn Smith, made this nice compilation from pieces of our published and some unpublished videos created during the year 2010.

Thanks Shawn, and happy New Year to all our fans and supporters all around the world!

Brilliant video, well done Shawn :D I loved watching the unreleased stuff, it's always great watching a new video.

Just shows how far, graphically, this engine has got. It's a great compilation of the best parts of this development this year.

C. Shawn Smith:
Thanks :).  It was great fun.  I'd been thinking about this for a while, and started preliminary work on it just for fun while learning my video software.  I sent a personal request to Cameni, along with a sample link to the first video.  It's gone through eight different iterations to get here, but there's a couple of tweaks I really should have done.  But you get to a point where you go blind staring at the hour-long rendering process :).  Not to mention my harddrive filled up VERY fast collecting these videos.  Now comes the long process of backing them up to DVD and freeing up some space  :(

It's a little on the long side, but for the retrospective I figured it best to include a few extra clips, especially the few that were better versions of other videos.

Happy New Year!

*Edit* Oh, and I meant to add one more thing.  In another thread I mentioned it would be cool to have a voice whisper the name "Outerra" at the end of a video.  Well, I finally managed to meet up with a very sweet friend who said she'd be willing to do it.  I was hoping I'd be able to get it done in time for the video release, but it won't be until sometime late January or early February before I can.  Her schedule is extremely hectic, and she doesn't have access to a good microphone in order to record it.  Hopefully, it'll add another hook in any future videos :)

ZeosPantera:
Very nice stuff. I would have totally broken all the copyright laws and put some AC/DC over it instead of the same song from the Apache, but if you want to use it as a promotional item I guess some rules must be followed.

C. Shawn Smith:
lol, AC/DC would have been good :).  I didn't really want to use the Apache track.  I had Royalty Free stock music on my other computer, which ended up suffering a bad virus that wrecked my Windows registry (and then a series of hardware failures killed the drives altogether).  Still slowly recovering that computer in hopes I may still be able to salvage some of the files.

But out of the few I had on this computer, none really fit.  I put the Apache track in there as a placeholder, but it actually worked, so I used it.  The Cessna track would have worked decently, but I think the video needed something a little more intense than that.
