Wings How To video

[AdmiralRa]

Very very good work Mike! This will help ALOT of people to get started on Wings! :thumbsup:

I recommend it to everyone, it's only 32 minutes long. And worth every minute! :D

Not too bad,I can read it up pretty good on my 27 inch tv.

Note that you missed telling them they can maximise their 4 viewport setup by using the "Hide Toolbar" in the same menu as Fit Both(098.22c here)

To facilitate and please the viewer's experience,next time use a character in the scene so each x,y or z view is easily recognizable,it also helps plugging your own stuff.

Skipped through most of the rest except the last 10 minutes or so,it's a bit too long for a walkthrough and you do linger from time to time.

Instead of making it one big long file,why not make a series of videos demonstrating the tools separately,that'd save you bandwith and the others would save time.

Demonstrating a tool can be done in a few seconds according you do quote a situation in which it'd be useful.

Have a look at Paul's webpage for inspiration.


Take care

Thanks for the crit Stephan, thats pretty much what i was looking for :)

The way I see it is that most real users probably wont get anything out of this, but Im hoping if new users were able to be directed to this vid than it could answer alot of questions for them. Like I really dont expect many people to watch it through the whole thing, as it like you say does linger in some places.

Perhaps next time Ill make a bunch of little videos show each tool that I went over in this one, might be interesting. Although I would need to know if theres an interest for them heh..

Thanks alot for your comments man!


btw what did you mean by "it also helps plugging your own stuff" ?

Geta-ve, is it okay to save your wings tut to disc?

[Geta-Ve]

Im thinking about making a new one but there hasnt been much user feedback so i dont think I will..
