To be able to add cool transitions and effects to your Movie.
Step1: Firstly make sure you have Windows Movie Maker on your computer, if you don¡¦t then download it from the Windows Website. If you have XP then it is already downloaded for you. www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/sp2/default.mspx
Step2: Download Fraps, this is a must have. Download it from www.fraps.com/download.php
Step3: To use fraps you must open it and select you preferences, where it says half screen or full screen choose full screen. Then click on Movies. Select where your recording will go to and what key you want to press to start and end recording. Then minimize Fraps.
Step4: Play your game (RTW:BI) and there should be some yellow numbers in the corner of your screen. That makes sure that Fraps is working. When playing the Game press the record key you selected to start recording. The numbers should turn red. This means that you are recording. Pressing the record key again will stop recording. Beware not to constantly press the record key or your comp will be spammed with recorded sections. When you feel you have done enough exit RTW.
Step5: Open Windows Movie Maker. Go to File and upload each of your Scenes(import into collections, in the file toolbar). This may take some time, but be patient. When they are downloaded you are ready to make your movie. First you might want to add written scenes. From tools click on titles and credits. Say where you want your writing to go. At the moment you want at the beginning. Type in what you have to say and then press done. If you want you can add more written scenes after that one.
Step6: Add your scenes one by one onto the storyboard. Then if you want to add music click on ¡¥show timeline¡¦ and then import into collections your chosen song. Then when it has been imported drag it like the scenes into the audio/music bar (click on the audio/music b4 you do this).
Step7: Nearly made your movie now. (click back onto show storyboard) But first we want to add effect and transitions. To add an effect to a scene click on tools and then Video Effects. Select your effect and drag it onto the scene you want it to have an effect on. To add a transition click on Video Transition and select the transition and drag it into the small box between two scenes, that means that the scene to the left will change into the scene to the right with that transition technique.
Step8: Make sure you are happy with your movie. Then click on file and click on save movie file. Select where you want you Movie to be saved into (My Videos). Then wait patiently for it to be uploaded(can take some time). When it has been uploaded you can exit Windows Movie Maker.
Step9: Type in Google 'putfile'. The first link is the website you want. Register your free account (activate it by email) and then upload your movie (once again may take time). When it has been uploaded write down the url of the movie uploaded and post it on the COR forums in the Movies Thread . If you have any problems with this please pm me, EmperorMustard. Hope it works, good luck and Have Fun
