Hello friends, I once was working on a Halo 2 Vista/Halo 1 video, but then i realised Halo 2 vista sucks nuts.

So, basically, I had about 2 minutes of montage, edited poorly and half of it was h2V footage, so i decided to add, subtract divide and multiply and the end result was all H1 and it was about a minute and a half. I ran out of footage, so booted up the ol' Halo 1 PC and started recording in that, and then gab_dc (gun) had all my Halo 1 Xbox footage I had sent him, he kindly sent that back and then i added it in.

So there we have it, it was about 7 minutes, long, spaning over 2 songs (technically 3)

Then the next problem, vegas kept crashing, i would edit a little bit, then it would crash. I lost patience, last night while I was going to do my effects pass on the video (I had already finished about 98% of the syncing) i gave up, rendered the montage into little bits (vegas would crash doing a full render) imported it into vegas, whacked on some credits and rendered it + uploaded it.

So here we are, Its not how i wanted it to be (as really, its not finished, but it's as finished as it will ever be)

Enjoy, there is a small notice at the start, do take the time to read it though if you don't it basically outlines that this montage was made in my spare time to be for enjoyment, I didnt set out to make a masterpiece, so judge it accordingly.

Have you ever woken up in the morning, look into the mirror, and say "You're awesome"? Because you are.

I give it a thumbs up just because of the silky smooth framerate.

The bungie.net community is the halo PC community that is renowned for being unbelieveably sucky.

Good montage, the pistol 3sk were nice. Definitely not the best Halo PC montage though. Most of the people you killed were clearly scrubs. Half of the guys were jumping around like retards...

A lot of your sniper hits looked like spray shots too. Lots of spraying with the sniper actually. Not saying that great players don't spray in games, but it doesn't look good in montages.

All in all I give it a solid 8/10.

@ kim LOL? was that sarcasm....? hahaha and no i can't say i have done that...

@ frnksnbns I didn't want it to be the best out, i just wanted it to be enjoyed :) if i wanted it to be the best out I would've cracked open after effects and probably got better footage + got skyracer to be head editor.

Thanks for comments guys :)
