Stacking Clips!

Did you know that you can re-watch anything that you do in Skate?? You finally landed that sick ledge combo after 300 tries? Or maybe you got smoked by a bus and landed in a tree? Check the footy! Everything that happens to you in game is available to watch, edit and share in the Replay Editor.

Let’s dive into the basics! As we move through Early Access, we’ll be updating the feature, adding more options to it, and celebrating your your original content (videos, screenshots, gifs, etc.), so make sure to share it with us to see what you’ve got. You can post to the skate.REEL site or share on social channels and make sure to tag #easkate. We’ve even got a specific channel in the skate. Discord called #skate-content just for you to share your clips, videos, and screenshots.

First things first, you need a subject. You, other skaters, cars passing by - whatever you want to capture. To set up your Replay Editor (length of recording, etc.), let’s jump into the tool and then grab some content.

Hold down on the D-Pad and go to the camera on the radial wheel. Quickly open up the Replay Editor by holding the View button (Xbox) or Touchpad (PS).

Let go of the D-Pad and you’re now in the Replay Editor. Before we start getting ready for our Oscar for Short Films, let’s check the Replay Settings. Press the Menu ☰ to get to those settings.

General

View Last: Change the length of Replay cached from 15 seconds to 5 minutes
Scrub Speed: Change how fast the scrub on the timeline is when editing, from Slow to Fast
Photo Format: Choose JPG or PNG for your exported photos
Playback Speed: This is the speed at which the playback in the editor will move. Choose from x.5 - x2

Export

Video Format: Choose MP4 or WebM
Frame Rate: Choose from 24, 30, or 60 fps (frames per second)
Resolution: Choose 360, 480, 720, 1080, 1440, or 2160 for your resolution.

Once you have your settings done, back out of this screen and get to editing.

Trim Your Clip

Press the R1 button on your controller to trim your clip.
In Trimming Mode, you’ll scrub through the clip using L2 (rewind) and R2 (fast forward) to find your moment.
Move a few ticks before the moment and press Left on the D-Pad to start your Clip section and Right on the D-Pad to set the end of your clip. Then press R1 again and now you’re in edit mode.

We’ve got more coming to the Replay Editor through the live service of skate. (Season 2 as mentioned in our Roadmap!), and as it evolves, we’ll keep you up to date on what we’re working on to expand the Replay Editor.

That’s the basics, so get out there and stack some clips and share them with the world! Reminder: you can post to the skate.REEL site or share on social channels and make sure to tag #easkate! We’d love to see it!

See you in San Van!

Let’s roll.
