Hey everyone ,
here we could show the files we upload to youtube =)
Feel free to contribute them tu us
Is the quality ok? I made it with SUPER, my first time using it. I think i need to change screen ratio from 4:3 to 5:4, and maybe another resolution....but its not looking bad? Takes only 35 MB of Diskspace

You can embed your 'high quality' versions too by adding &ap=%2526fmt%3D18 to the end of the url's.
PS. Growl, your quality is fine for youtube, it's really touch & go how good their stuff turns out. Banshee's Monolith was somewhere in the region of 2000Kb/s @ 480p. My HD aggressor was 1MB/s 720p, that's 4x the bitrate & 2x the resolution.
For comparison:
Is the extra quality that noticeable? I don't think so, Is it worth it? No...
Btw, to embed HD append &ap=%2526fmt%3D22.

If u are running the videos in the small window i don't see a big difference, but if u enlarge them it's huge.
I would prefer HD demos, u just get more from the action.
Saw yourself changing colors in the video, tony? Looks nice... Atm there are 50% complaints about the colorchange and 50% find it awesome an want it too
Here is a demo from p@t i found on youtube:
credits to him...awesome as ever
I hope he don't mind

Yeah, he has the skills all right.
You are right, in bigger windows HD does look better than HQ. The problem is that you're spending twice as long encoding & uploading. The colours can go weird in fast motion youtube HD clips too. HQ has fewer draw backs & it's easily twice as good as standard content. It's a winner for me.
Anyhoo, I've drifted a little off topic methinks, sorry Marc.
PS. 50% complaints? Hehe, that high? I always get someone mention it & it can lure out the trolls. If someone asks nicely then I'll turn it off, if they troll then they can fcuk off.

If it didn't drift into Offtopic then it wouldn't be a thread at this forum
I don't disable the colors, in my opinion they don't irritate... I only disabled modelchange, because i want that ppl recognize me... That's more fair
I like your Nexuiz videos very much, because your playing style isn't common. So much use of rope and laserhopping make it worth to watch it... I tried to copy some parts of your movement style, so i use a lot more rope now
OK....enough sweettalking
Not a new vid, but this is a video thread so i have to attach it

Very nice
I'd be ready for a paramedic if I ever did it that fast!

I lowered my FOV a bit, so it should also help the quality a bit Now 105... That also makes the game slower...or it looks slower at least

I can't play with FOV lower than 110 (since q3a) I have feeling then Im moving as fast as a turtle. Tried 90 when Pat told me he's using such FOV. man...impossible for me.

I recently got a 16:9 monitor & I still don't like playing with FOV below 100. I like how it makes it seem more intense, plus you can see people at your side easier & spin round & get 'em faster.
Just say no to low FOV.
