I've been playing around with Avidemux, a free and simple video editor. You should edit your video a little more, separating the kills and the bloopers in the final with some message screen or transition effect.
I enjoy a lot watching videos of Battlefield 1942 and other games. Some videos are very good, I've picked these two, as an example, from the same guy:

Never heard before about those 2 programs, I'll try them. Nice video settings you have, the game looks sweet. And what program did you use to edit the video?

I enjoyed your first plane kill in 3rd person view in Gazala, really nice. smile I know you are a very good tanker, didn't know you could pilot so well. By the way, what program did you use to record your in-game video? Xfire? Fraps?

Thank you. He won't bother anyone again in this server.

Ok, thank you for your efforts. I'll look out for those players and proceed accordingly.

Gazala map was already finished the past Tuesday, that's why you did not notice. It was heavily changed, mainly more tanks, planes and AA guns at main bases. I'm glad you like both map changes. I'll try to correct some maps, as soon as possible, which in my opinion, are not good, like El Alamein, Guadalcanal, Coral Sea and Liberation of Caen.
Unfortunately, the server crashes on average 10 times daily. Curiously, last Friday and Sunday it only crashed 6 and 4 times, respectively, and the server was almost full throughout the day.

Battle of Britain was added another fighter plane to axis main base and less Ju-88 bombers spawn. In Gazala lots of changes to detail. In Midway, now 6 planes spawn at each carrier, the spawn time of the carrier, if destroyed, was reduced to half and another AA gun was placed near the island radar bunker.

Ok, XPRESS and a few others are banned for disruptive gameplay. Terence Hill is not banned. Please, don't answer back to him even if you feel he insulted you.

Hi Cpt.Kickass,

Thank you! Almost all our gameserver admins are experienced BF1942 players, that play in bf-league.eu competition. We have around 20 players who have admin rights. Our server is hosted in one of the best datacenters in Europe, that's why most european players have a low ping there.
About the CTF maps, we'll add one or two, maybe, to the map rotation, after i finish editing some maps. The time limit will stay at 30 minutes each round, most certainly. If you have any other suggestion or idea you can write it in the appropriate section, we'll make sure to read and consider it.

#3820 Re: Report Abuse » Team killing swearing and cheats » 2012-02-28 10:51:33

Hi sniper,

Thanks for your report. I'll take a look at the chat log for those 2 players.

#3821 Re: Feedback » Some comments » 2012-02-27 17:26:11

Hi Hiba,

I'm aware that Midway map, as it is modded now, is nowhere near the desirable. I'll add one carrier to each side and another AA gun to the small island, as a quick fix. As for Invasion of the Philippines map, we've decided to have it in the map pool, to give as much variety (maps) as possible. I've tried to add more dynamism to the map, by increasing the number of PT boats spawned and balancing the forces by adding another destroyer to the Japanese fleet. I was reluctant in adding a carrier instead of the destroyer, because I want the maps to be as close to the original, with not many changes. However, there are some maps, like Market Garden, that need more than adding the same type of vehicles to each side. Invasion of the Philippines is a map, disliked by some, and loved by others, much like the Midway map. In my opinion, i like the map as it is, but i'll take your opinion in consideration. Right now, I'm finishing editing El Alamein map and then will retouch most maps.
You're right, the rules should be broadcasted, most players don't read the welcome screen, which has the basic rules there. About planecamping, i'm aware of this problem, so decided to add AA guns to maps like Kharkov and Kursk, for example, when there are no admins around, at least, the players have some ways to counter planeraping. I don't like the other possibility, which is to damage planes when they enter the enemy base.
You have now map rights. You shouldn't play too much, as for anything in life, moderation is the key. Thank you for your feedback and your admin work. Don't worry too much about the players not following the rules, i prefer you enjoy your time there than getting annoyed about any abusive player.
