MPGFILE: freno.mpg
ZIPFILE: freno.zip
RENDERER USED: 
    POV RC6 Win


TOOLS USED: 
    Cmpeg & Cmpeg6 & Qbasic
  I started to use Cmpeg6(a front end for Cmpeg by Sander Stols ) to make the 
Mpeg but the list editor didn't function very well, but I could still use it to

preview a my scenes. I made a couple of qbasic programs to one create the 
list file and one to run Cmpeg.  


CREATION TIME: 
    Render Time 20 HOURS (I lost track)


HARDWARE USED: 
    1.2ghz Athlon


ANIMATION DESCRIPTION: 
    At a Grand Master Chess tournament as the
crowd goes wild, a player reaches to make probably his next to last move 
when he sends a knight on a small adventure.  



VIEWING RECOMMENDATIONS: 
    I viewed this on Xing and what ever
came with Win98 with no problem. 
 The screen resolution is 320*200.
 

DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS ANIMATION WAS CREATED: 

 
  This is my first entry and the first time that I've made a MPEG this long. 
When I first started I tried to make one master POV file to run the times and 
frames for each Scene.  I use scene to mean a stage and background and 
camera location.( I hope I've got the terminology right) Any way after around 
7 Scenes I dropped the master file and  made individual POV files for each. I 
wound up with 20.The POV files where name Scene(number).pov and At the 
top of each I put the frame length and the name of the TGA files in 
comments.  The TGA files where named in alphabetical order in sync with 
the scene number.(Like: Aone,Bfall,Ctun,...) 
  The zip file has all the pov files I used but not the image maps. I also 
included a text file (Frenoinfo.txt) that list all the scenes with their 
frames,times and a short description.
