Tutorial - New sky (CoD4)

Post by Nemu » March 29th, 2009, 7:55 am

Matty ask me how to get new sky in cod, so i make little tutorial how to get it.

First, download iw_sky.iwd in attachment (its modded sky files) and place it in any mod folder in cod, then record what you want with fraps (with blue sky) and then open your vid. in After Effects (you can also use Sony Vegas, but i will use AE).

(I will change sky on this screenshot for example)

Image


In AE select Effects & Presets -> Keying -> Keylight 1.2 (in SV its called "Color Key" or "Chroma Key") and in "Screen Colour" select blue color.

Image

Then, in AE / SV create new layer and put your sky video / image or make it with any Clouds Generation plugin (i use GenArts Sapphire plugins for this, you can also create clouds in Photoshop (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fW0y_ePz7ic i made this clouds with CS3).

Image

And then Export (you can add. some effects before export it) it to .avi (uncompressed) or screenshots files if you will edit it with any another programs.

Image

Enjoy your new sky in cod.

Final result of this tutorial.



And iw_sky.iwd is only for cod4.

Is this for CoD4 only?

I would imagine that you could do the same for any game as long as you can edit the sky.

That would be too easy. No you can't use on other servers because otherwise I could create walls you can see through, and we are there. Those changes (skins, skies and so on) are only possible on your server.
