Gaming 3D Animation

by red-crystal

 

 

Eversince games include 3D animations, I fell in love with 3D animation. I evan hacked (edit the Exe with MS-DOS Ediitor) Tomb Rider to view all of it's movies.

 

First Movies

Syndicate and Ultima VIII were the first games that I saw available with 3D animations. Then I saw Mech Warrior 2, the opening movie was really cool that time (great Texture mapping, explotions).

 

When Tomb Rider showed up, I wanted the game just to watch the movies (That's when I start editing EXEs just to view movies). Maybe it was the first game with a realistic character animation that a saw. Then Privateer 2 comes with a blend of 3D animation and real character (Wing Commander 3-4 Style), I was starting to buy games just because of it's movies.

 

Final Fantasy VII came, the game offers multidisc [3CDs PSX, 4CDs PC] just because of the movies (Installation is 500 Megs, the rest of the CD is filled with 3D FMVs). The character animation was smooth, but the modelling wasn't very good (Anime in 3D, acctually it was Sephiroth's neck when he killed Aeris).
