UNREAL is 25 years old today so I made a 3D short to celebrate one of the most important FPS (and engines!).

Fully rendered in Cinema 4D + Octane Render. Lots of materials/textures from GSG and some custom ones.

Fullscreen and headphones for the full 1998-nostalgia experience!

@josesaezmerino brutal. Me alucina que se puedan hacer cosas así.
@josesaezmerino Gracias, gracias, gracias
¡¡¡Que espectáculo!!!
@josesaezmerino Qué espectáculo, joder. Enhorabuena por el resultado 🔝
@josesaezmerino ¿qué maravilla es esta? vaya descubrimiento, haces un trabajo bestial, enhorabuena, me has reventado la cabeza…
@josesaezmerino @bigzaphod And you *didn't* use Unreal 5? For shame! 😂
@dssstrkl @bigzaphod lol I wish I’d had the time to learn it for this
@josesaezmerino this is dope 🥰 nostalgia is a powerful drug… thanks for the throwback. Would have appreciated seeing a music credit considering how prevalent it is in the video! But other than that, 💯

@Jleroy Thanks! You're right about the music credit, I hadn’t thought about it since its part of the game footage.

I did tag the main composers of the soundtrack, Alexander Brandon and Michiel van den Bos, when I shared it on twitter, and I know they saw it but I should've added their names to the video.

@josesaezmerino @lunarloony This is incredible work.
@retrohistories Thanks Chris! I came across your RenderWare video a few months ago and really enjoyed it!
@josesaezmerino Wow, that's a wild coincidence :D Thank you!
@josesaezmerino That's an animation, not IRL footage??!!! That's incredible!
@dheadshot thanks!! 100% CGI 😅
@josesaezmerino that’s nuts! Looks like the real deal. The smudges on the monitor and the jewel case 👌
