Blender & The Movies
Check out some of the amazing work being done by The Movies modding community, DCMF, using Blender & The Movies.
Been hoping to find your own copy of The Movies?
Feral Interactive is offering The Movies Superstar Edition:
"Lights! Camera! Action! You’re the decision-maker on everything from budget to production in The Movies: Superstar Edition.
This special edition features not only the original BAFTA-award winning The Movies game and the Stunts & Effects expansion pack, but also composer Dan Pemberton’s BAFTA-nominated music, which mimics a wide range of styles - from silent movie piano ditties to soaring, John Williams-esque orchestral pieces - as he traces a century of cinema."
If you decide to take the plunge, there are two sites that will prove to be invaluable for both learning the software and learning how to expand the software beyond what it was originally intended to do:TMUnderground (an offbranch of The Movies Online - the majority of TMO users ended up migrating here with the official ending of the Online portion)
DCMF Modding (the word "limitations" is not in this groups' vocabulary)
The Escape Pod
Available for free download through DCMF, Mike DeBoing's flying model comes in 2 full-size versions and 2 miniature versions. This mod was created for TheMovies.
Blender Competition - DCMF
A message from the Directors Cut Modding Forum:
OK to celebrate the return of DCMF, we are going to revamp the site, and here's the twist: the team isn't going to do it - YOU ARE. Now listen carefully.
The site is going to have the ability to use animated gif and swf files, which we would like you to decorate for us. We will do this through a competition, no not a movie competition, or a modding competition: a Blender competition.
The categories are
1. particles
2. animated ocean
3. raised shields
4. creating a tyre
5. using curves
We will give you a month to learn the categories of your choice. Don't worry - we will provide a link to a tutorial that will get you started. The rest is up to you
The tutorials will be provided once you the contestants have applied. We will also give you your own thread in our competition forum that no one can see except the team and yourself. This is where you will post weekly updates of :
Week
1. design stage with an 3 images of your design
2. creation update- 2 renders using f12
3. creation update- 3 renders using f12
4. deadline day open to public vote final animation render
This is so that we can follow what you are doing and allow you 2 question each to us for advice during the competition period. During this time the public and other contestants will not be able to see the thread until the deadline day when the comp is open for public voting.
We have 1 set criteria though for the render, and that is 475Lx100H.
The judges (team members) will make 1 final judgement at the end on which of the winning renders goes on our front page.

TheMovies software is not dead!
The INCREDIBLE modding team at DCMF is still working behind the scenes to deliver exceptional content to users of The Movies software, and they aren't done yet!
If you have an old copy of The Movies sitting around or have been curious about using it but wonder what it's limitations are....well, limitations seems to be missing from the DCMF vocabulary.
Just one taste of what they've been working on:
Over the next few weeks, we will be sharing more of what has been made possible by the modding community.
But - The Movies is definitely still alive & kicking.
