Jerec the Dark Jedi that almost killed him. How he feel in love with Jan Ors of the Moldy Crow starfighter and yes how Kyle Katarn discarded his badges as a fleet officer for the Imperial Navel Acadamy as soon as he learned of how the Empire killed Morgan. But...Shadow has said on numerous times, EU doesn't represent George Lucas.

It sounded like you said "solar" system. But thats okay, I like some of the EU.

Sweersa if you here I have to ask you a computer animation relevant question. I'm not going to start going off again about the ST or Shadow but I have to ask you question regarding your rotoscope light saber video on Youtube.com if you please, when you get this message. Thank you

Sure, of course. Ask any questions you please. I will be more than happy to answer them.

Yet he does add characters from the eu to his vision as "he"(or it might have been shadow) recently stated their. I have seen eu characters like mara jade,thrawn,exar kun,revan,malak,nihilus,sion,traya and marka ragnos on his site.(and he does make many contradictions about them which i will post if u want katarn)

and have you ever anything from the eu? I mean just because its fake doesnt mean you can't enjoy a good star wars novel.

When I get done with a good Star Wars novel I think to myself. "Well that never happened but its awesome to think it did!"

I actually just finished the new legacy of the force novel inferno it is definitely is one of the better ones i love seeing jacen solo getting his a$$ handed to him.

Sweersa about my question. Your rotoscope video on Youtube.com.

1. What art program did you use for the special effect of the light saber?

2. Did you use Corel Painter, Photoshop, etc...?

3. I read on a post to a member, from the rotoscope video on Youtube that in order to make a 30 second video of footage you add special effects to 90 frames per second, is this true or am I close?

4. Do you have a weblink or website where I can download a free trial offer of the computer graphic program you used?

5. Was it Corel Painter and if so what program did you use after Corel Painter to import the footage to animate?

Thank You and the reason I'm asking you is because I don't want to use any of the cheap adolesent MS paint program when rendering and animating. Please answer.

Sweersa about my question. Your rotoscope video on Youtube.com.

1. What art program did you use for the special effect of the light saber?

Sweers: I used Corel Painter 9.

2. Did you use Corel Painter, Photoshop, etc...?

Sweers: Corel Painter 9 aka Corel Painter IX (don't get version 10 its bad for some reason)

3. I read on a post to a member, from the rotoscope video on Youtube that in order to make a 30 second video of footage you add special effects to 90 frames per second, is this true or am I close?

Sweers: Well generally there should be 30 frames in one second, 90 frames per second is far to fast for video, its not natural, its likely just miss communication though which it why you may have thought that, its fine. A 30 second video would have about 900 frames. This takes a long time, patience is something you need for this. I once had to rotoscope effects, that had well over 1,000 frames, took a while, but looked great when finished.

4. Do you have a weblink or website where I can download a free trial offer of the computer graphic program you used?

Sweers: Yes, here is the link, it should work, if not you will just have to download the 30 day trial for version 10, which is just slower in my opinion, not sure why.

http://www.download3000.com/download-Corel_Painter_IX5_for_Windows-count-reg-16480.html

5. Was it Corel Painter and if so what program did you use after Corel Painter to import the footage to animate?

Sweers: I just simply saved the footage as Quicktime's .MOV file format using Corel Painter.

Thank You and the reason I'm asking you is because I don't want to use any of the cheap adolesent MS paint program when rendering and animating. Please answer.

Sweers: You are very welcome, when you get Corel Painter running you will have 30 days to work with it for free, here are some tips, for the lightsaber blade part, use a white airbrush, for the glow, just use the glow effect. Remember to apply the glow first, then the blade over it. Google this if you have problems or ask me for more help.

Good luck! :-)

I love how one minute cory is calling u a sock ran by like 6 different shadowscourge people and then he is politely asking you questions about your ability with video animating and other stuff. But hey that's life for you..

Heh, none of our insults are personal anyways. People take the internet way to seriously.

I mention I have a pic of GL and Mickey and the board is totally active and talking for a long time and is all hyper and static, then I show them the pic with GL and Mickey Mouse, a bunch of people FREAK OUT and its so hilarious for me to watch it all!

ROTFLCOPTER!

it was, but i must commend you on your patience cause if i was called that type of stuff you have been such as people saying that my very identity is fake among others i would have flipped.

LOL Yeah I have a high tolerance for all sorts of stuff on the Internet.

I have read the entire Jedi Apprentice series (pretty much when it was new), and loved it (I have a LONG story of how it has affected my life, maybe another time) I have read the entire Jedi Quest series, and most of the Last of the Jedi series and counting.

I have also read a few other things, Path of Destruction blew me away though, it was awesome in all aspects. I never read any NJO books, I am leaving the sequels to George hopefully.

Anyone here get the Star Wars Insider magazine? I am in the latest issue! Its good magazine for the most part. Check out the Scouting the Galaxy section to see my little article!

Some of the sequel stuff imo i not as bad as others say like half of the njo book are decent and definitely one of my favorites is the thrawn trilogy.

U can read online so many eu books here, definitely a good website.(exluding the 1's in beige which is only a few)

And what is your article about?

Interesting Russian site.

My article is about two vintage Stormtrooper action figures, one has a variation, and I ask Steve Sansweet about it etc. Its a good read. Its more of a fellow collector's submission is his magazine department than an article, but I think you get the idea. Pick up the issue sometime if you can and check it out.

Yeah, PoD was pretty damn cool, along with the Jedi Apprentice series and Thrawn trilogy. Haven't read Legacy of the Jedi, Last of the Jedi or Jedi Quest, but I know that everything after the Thrawn Trilogy pretty much blows more than a $2 hooker. 'Vong' lol, more like 'Crappy ill-thought plot device in order to gain more $$$'.

I really wished i know how to read russian because http://www.swtimeline.ru/
here you can read the comics but it too is in russian (i use to navigate it well before they changed the layout and even then it was in russian and only now can i navigate it again) and the sad part is that my cousin married 5 years ago to woman who born in aswell as her family from russia.

I look for it when im out at barnes and nobles is it in this months star wars insider magazine?

Meh, just use yahoo's Babelfish translator to translate all that Russian. Works for me. 😉

Ill try but what's funny about the last link is that as janus said is it says that is powered by the us navy yet 90% of the language is still in russian,go figure. 😕

Just give Lucas about 5-8 years you will be hearing more info on the Sequel Trilogy. Trust me;-) I'm psychic I can see 20 years into the future like Nostradomus. Lucas has to say,"NO TO STAR WARS 7,8,9" to build hype for next decade it is a requirement. Lucas knows that with an Episode 7,8,9 he can make more money and give much joy to people. People want 7,8,9 and Lucas isn't going to upset the fans. I think some of you dishearten and discourge Supershadow for what he has to give. Heck, I truely believe he will Executive Produce the ST. He is known to fans but if the media knew of Mr. Suttle there would be to much coverage on Mr. Suttle. I respect the man, he is my friend and I'm sure he enjoys the quiet life. So yes faith is an interesting concept but faith and patience is what you have to have for the impossible to become possible. Hey what can I say, I'm a lover and a fighter. Maybe even a Philosopher. hahaha LOL

Well then I don't know what else to tell you non-believers. We just see differently and have distinct views. My life-style is on the left and your's is on the right. Good night and good luck. 😎

I think some stuff that happened after ROTJ is alright. like Truce at Bakura...

NJO, well, I don't like the thought of leia and han's kids grown up... there's something that i don't like about the it...

True. the Jedi Apprentice series is good. Up to how many volumes is it anyway?

😂 You know what's sad? I don't even know what that is. That just shows how much I know about stuff after ROTJ.

Yeah, that's just weird. And Luke dying? He was supposed to embody the new age of the Jedi. He can't grow old and die. And how a bunch of adults can come along and become Jedi. That's just weird, my good lady.

I'm not sure. I think somewhere between 17 and 20. How many Jedi Quest are there? And that new series about the Jedi being hunted. I can't remember what it's called.
