Giants Machinima
Hey all, ok my idea is to make a giants Machinima (anyone seen Red Vs Blue?) and my problem is how can i get the HUD to dissappear, if not the complete HUD then just the pistol on one character. Any ideas are welcome
This is not easy to do. You will need to create fully transparent .tgas to replace the graphics for all of the items on the HUD and put them in the override folder, and then hex-edit Giants.exe to remove or blank out the pointers to the numbers displayed on the HUD, for ammo and vimp meat and such. I made an .exe like this while working on the second version of GK (which will probably never see the light of day), but I'm not sure where it is now. If you're really serious about this, I can show you how to do it, but it's quite a bit of trouble.

I know that was the first thing I thought of, unfortunatly even with the pistol in giants (the lowest weapon) just cropping the screen would cut out a lot of it, too much by my standards, although based on what it looks like it would take to make the pistol and/or the HUD invisible it may seem my best option at the mo. Also does anyone know any good video capture programs? Specifically ones that will record audio aswell as the video.

probably fraps, or use a tv-out and record the video on another pc for best framerateDavman wrote:Also does anyone know any good video capture programs? Specifically ones that will record audio aswell as the video.
