General
This software allows ET Moviemakers to easily and quickly create Popups that look like the ingame popups. The advantage is, that you can just export those shots now and import them into your favourite Editing Software. The Moviemaker can also adjust the framerate, so the syncing with the actual footage is done in no time!
