The Orb of Oculus is the start of this. It’s an in-game item that we are about to release that can be used to set up some exciting and dynamic shots for your own RuneScape machinima. You will have total control over the camera and can make it maneuver and pan as you see fit. You will have the power to set up your shots, direct your friends and keep them in frame, and make the film you want to make.

The big hope is that this tool will inspire all RuneScape players to try their hand at making their own videos. Seeing what can be done right now is a treat, but with the Orb of Oculus, I hope you can make something truly exceptional. Get a video of yourself in a minigame, show off your own house, let people see your rendition of Don Quixote as you tilt at windmills. The world is your oyster, so why not give it a try?

What is the future for machinima in Runescape? That answer is up to you. With the new machinima competition about to launch, and this new tool, I know we are all looking forward to seeing what you can do. Perhaps you will be the next machinima pioneer...



This sounds like a great idea for rs movie makers!

I hope this inspires more interesting lvl 99 movies and RISSA to come back!!!

First thing I thought when I read the blog when it came out was... If this thing had a good amount of roaming range, it would be nice for spying on people. ninja

Not to kill your hopes. It doesn't.

That's because it would be possible to be outside Runescape's diary.

A J-Mod said that it would be enough for your character not to be in the video but not more than enough to go very far from your distance.

Anyways, I am not sure, and this is just a guess, but I think it will be released either next week or two weeks from now, I am guessing next week.

Never said I had any hopes that it would. But it would be nice if it did. Because that's what I'd use it for.

Orb of Oculus is iffy-iffy, there are some fixes that are needed such as can move your character with it, the controls are a bit hard (even after a whole lot of time using it), and the crappy movement.
