We are pleased to announce that the long awaited video finally arrived! Several remakes and lots of changes tried to hold it back from the release but we fought the war and now its here.
The video is featuring
Kévin "
strenx" Baéza, one of the best Quake Live players in the competitive scene. Following the worlds fashion of videos, he decided to get the video made in 3D, making it the first QuakeLive frag video ever made! Hope you'll enjoy the video! :)
The video is brought to you by
Ákos "
F-X" Ujfalusi who captured and edited most of the scenes to perfectly match the song and flow. The 3D slow-motion animations, the outro, color correcting and rendering were done by
Péter "
mccormic" Kerülö. An other important member of the team is the creator of
WolcamQL who is still hiding his full name but has a well known nickname,
Brugal! He implemented the 3D capturing feature specially for this movie, so without him this all wouldn't be possible. We would also like to thank to
Joe Goss for providing the high quality visor model for the animations and for
Jeremy "
SHRAPN3LS" Bitton for his support for beta testing.
The video is available in 3 versions: 2D (regular), Anaglyph 3D (Red-Cyan glasses), Digital 3D (Side-by-Side half). PS: Don't forget to check out the post @

Anaglyph:
If you watch it on YouTube or dailymotion, you will notice that all the colors are yellow-ish due the YouTube's 3D color correction method. To watch the original you have to go to the 3D Settings at the bottom and set the colors to Original/Full. The RED color in this case wont look perfect cause this technology is not perfect.
To reach the best quality in anaglyph you have to download the AVI because I optimized it for the best colors even with anaglyph glasses. This version can't be uploaded to YouTube because after YouTube's recompress the colors will drop and it won't give the proper colors.
Digital SBS 3D
This requires an at least 120Hz Monitor/TV and Active Shutterlens 3D glasses (for example:
Nvidia 3D Vision Glasses).
If you are watching on YouTube or daily motion, make sure to use the latest Firefox version cause that is the only one browser so far (AFAIK) that supports digital 3d in-browser. Then you just have to start the video with SBS settings on the bottom at 3D and press your button on your glasses.
If you downloaded the video, you will need some specific 3D media player. I use PowerDVD which works pretty simple. Just start up the video in it, press the 3D button on the bottom of the screen, then the button on your glasses and it works.
If you are watching on TV, you should have some of the latest firmwares cause the video is encoded by XviD. When it started just press the button on your glasses
