Page 2 of 7 Step 1 - What you will needOkay, there are a couple of things you will need before you can even start to work through this tutorial.
PLUGINPAC
- the pluginpac for Vegas adds some nice, and quite handy little
filters to Vegas video. So you'll need to download and install these
first. CONSOLE PACK
- A simple self made set of files which you need to extract to your
RTCW/OSP folder. This will probably work for other mods where the
console has not been changed.. e.g., EDV, in which case extract it to
your RTCW/EDV folder. This pack will make the background of your
console grey, ideally it should be 128,128,128 grey the overlay method
we use in Vegas makes this shade totally transparent, whilst retaining
the other colours. We can see the differences between the standard
console and the hacked one below.
|  | standard | hacked |
VIRTUAL DUB - You can find out more about how to use this application to convert image sets in this tutorial. vDUB PROCESSING SETTINGS
- These will convert the the screenshots containing the console, to a
format and layout which is better suited to editing in Vegas. It also
ensures that the grey used in the background is the correct shade, as
the output in the screenshots will depend heavily on what brightness
settings you have set in RTCW.
