• [2009-07-05] Movie Download: Virtual Thunderbirds @ VFAT '08

Posted: **Sun Jul 05, 2009 7:23 pm**

Experience the Virtual Thunderbirds LIVE performance @ VFAT 2008 again... in Full HD

This is an enhanced re-render in HD made by Gunner of the live stream, featuring the original camerawork by Panther with the addition of new sound effects, live radio chatter from the pilots, and some new camera angles, as seen during our live performance at VFAT on December 13, 2008. This video also features the BETA version of our Block 52 3D model that became flyable litterally 24 hours prior to showtime. Now, sit back, turn up the volume, and enjoy our tribute to the Thunderbirds and the men and women of the United States Air Force as we perform in front of a live audience at VFAT 2008.

There's is a problem with the video conversion in Vimeo. We're working to fix this. The video should be available again shortly...

I have trouble with downloading the video...

I've tried 3 times to download this video, but they all stopped at 12%...

So I only can watch a few minutes (till the introducing of number 5).

Any ideas what causes this problem?

Anyone else have problems with downloading?

We're still working on the Vimeo issue, and we'll get to any other problems once that's resolved. Thanks for your patience!

It downloaded just fine, but when I went to extract it or even play it from winrar it gave me an error as well:

Desktop\VFAT2008_720p.zip: The archive is either in unknown format or damaged

But it's ok with me cause the movie is great when played here especially on HD. Great work.

I don't know what has been changed, but the download didn't stop at 12% now...

50% to go!

When it says the archive is either unknown or damaged, when downloading something went wrong. You will have to re-download it. Maybe the download stopped, or when downloading it only gave you part of the file. But after re-downloading it should work

I think that's right!

Now the download went to 100%, and the unpacking didn't gave any problems...

Really don't know what happened... maybe a bad connection

Edit: Amazing video guys! Keep it up!
