Cameras

Hello,

Is it possible to record a flyover, ie manually control the view ? Is it possible to export the video to other formats, mpeg 4, etc?

Thanks

Currently there is no facility within Mycosm to capture or export environments directly. Our development pipeline for the immediate future does include the introduction of exports to image/videos directly out of Mycosm - unfortunately we do not have a firm indication of when that will be available. With regard to formats, no specifications have been made at this time.

until such functionality is available, there are third party products - Camtasia and FRAPS are 2 examples - that are designed specifically for screen capture purposes. It is possible to publish a Mycosm environment, open the published Player file and then maximise the view to full screen for capture using one of these types of packages.

The default settings in a Mycosm environment allow you to publish to a player file, and navigate that environment in the Mycosm Player via standard WASD and L-mouse click controls. The sensitivity of the controls can be altered via the mouse wheel as in Mycosm Studio. A combination of this movement and a third party screen capture product would enable you to produce a video of your environment. Of course the particular formats of such a video would be determined by the package performing the screen capture.

Hope this helps!
