I have been lurking on this fourm for a few years now, collecting information on wings3d.
I have been working the last eight months on a better way of making video tutorials. I believe I have come up with a good combination of codecs to produce quality video tutorials.
What I would like to do is, convert the tutorials in the manual to video tutorials. I would give the creator of the tutorial full credit for their work, I would just like to add "tutorial converted to video tutorials by: 3dz
The problem is, I'm not sure who to ask for permission, or how to get in contact with them. Most open-source manuals are not of this quality. I wish I would have read this manual when I first started wings3d. "I would have saved a lot of time."
I was in the military for 16 years and gave thousands of classes, after the first few hundred you kind of get a knack for it. With the tutorials in the manual, most of the work is already done. Which would make it easy to convert into video tutorials. I guess my question is: who would I contact to do something like this?
If you like to see my results, below is a link. This was a little something to do a test with. So I must put out a warning here! This video tutorial has only been tested on 8 computers, so usage is at your own risk. So far nobody has had any problems. The final encoding is done in the XviD codec.
