Rarebit... thank you. For over three years, MXO - specifically, its storyline, missions and events - have been among the happiest experiences of my life. As an aspiring game developer, your connection to the community and dedication to thi...

Thanks for the praise, everyone! I've managed to cook up a higher quality version based on the .gif versions of the scenes (thanks for posting those, Rarebit!). I'm not going to take the existing version down - at least not yet. The music...
I was pleasantly surprised that the new cinematic was convertable to a more... flexible filetype. I'll be uploading a version with music (from Mxo's soundtrack) to Youtube shortly.

Will these new fangled cinematics be using the "vp6" video codec, by chance? It seems pretty much impossible to convert swfs lacking that to a format that would lend itself to fan added music versions. *Shrug*
Also, regarding the location of Zero One, The General's Blog (Written by Chadwick, as far as I know) indicated that it was indeed in Iraq. I think he said that the Machines "bought it, dirt cheap". Sadly, that blog seems to have been delet...
Metal Gear Solid 1 & 2, Vice City, Halo, Knights of the Old Republic, and lots of other console stuff. My compy at the time was... well, lets just say it was running Win 98 and Wordpad had a habit of lagging.
I think they're pretty neat. I'd love to see this extended to other npc types as well - the exiles in hideouts, enemies in archive missions and constructs, etc. Their reusable nature is one of their strongest points.
Cinematics are coming back. That means I'll finally have some new mxo-related source material! In celebration, I'm uploading the first new entry in my Archie and Gray series in ages.
