Did this one (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=38gqbuuSkB4), currently trying to find a way to get better sound quality.

How did you capture the video from the PS3?

[love9sick]

Videos are interesting to see how others play, I am also curious how to get vids of the races on a PS3.

[judus]

Darkdrium777, the music you played on that video is smashing :D

Very fast paced and very wipeout. Nice overtaking and side shifting moves by the way.

[rdmx]

How did you capture the video from the PS3?
Late reply - the PS3, using svideo, is plugged into a tv tuner on my computer. I use virtualdub to capture the video - audio comes in through the line in - I have an RCA to 3.5mm stereo plug. I sacrifice framerate and resolution for the sake of recording however - svideo only goes at 25 (or 29.97, depending where you live) fps I think and at SD only.

Here is another set of videos, a Friday night Australia vs. New Zealand tournament. Scores are still being calculated, but Australia almost certainly wins.

[trentdf]

damn that was cool, i gotta get in on that. How do you tell each other apart though?

[leungbok]

Very nice & clean racing. I look forward watching you on phantom reverse:+

[lunar]

Great videos, very entertaining! :) Now we need to see Australia A versus France A ;)

[leungbok]

We already spoke of that with Kaori ;) Xmas hollydays should be a good period. And maybe a parallel tournament on pulse.

[rdmx]

damn that was cool, i gotta get in on that. How do you tell each other apart though?
I'm not sure what everyone else was doing, but I was in a free-for-all mode :dizzy

I'd be up for a France vs. Australia/maybe even NZ tournament. Although whichever side hosts will have an advantage (weapon pads have a delay when playing someone in the EU here).

[burt_ie]

Watching these videos makes me realise how much I suck!
I will have to try and record some myself :)

[KIGO1987]

That was hell slow, then again it was Flash speed. As i said to Insertcoin it felt like driving through an infinite series of school zones, your going that slow you want to go faster. Not the best races i have had cause my ship was being a bit of a bitch. But damn that was close towards the end. One point. Good racing though Ben:D


Great videos, very entertaining! :) Now we need to see Australia A versus France A ;)

Sounds good. I need to get my standards back, so i can break this rain of French domination in the Wipeout universe.


We already spoke of that with Kaori ;) Xmas hollydays should be a good period. And maybe a parallel tournament on pulse.

Nice:D. i hope that this summer its not going to be extremmly hot, cause i leave the PS3 off on those hot nights, no point having the PS3 on cause it makes the room into a fan forced oven since there is no AC.

Great video, mate:+ But why couldn't i picked a quake or a missile since the 4th lap ?:brickwall
:lol

[rdmx]

Nice racing! I wish I could join one of those avalon races - look intense. I'm either always at school or asleep.

These holidays, I'll try and make it in =]

Good videos guys.

[Mad-Ice]

Thanks for the comments guys! At Lunar; the music track is Panorama (original mix) Only at EuroAdrenaline.com, Heaven and Sky

Here are my two new vids: first is Anulpha TT and the second is Ubermall TT

Enjoy:

[lunar]

Thanks Mad-Ice.

I love the bit in the Anulpha Pass race video going into the final lap. Missile - Turbo - then you almost lose it and go off the track on the straight, get it back somehow and then pull off the BR in the narrow section. Stunning stuff! This sort of action would sell the game to people, Sony should use it for promos and we should link to it on other forums.

Phantom looks really fast on You Tube - faster than when I play it. Maybe it shows that Wipeout HD is fast, but it`s just the 60fps that makes it look otherwise.

I will check out the other videos, should be interesting to see what you are doing. :banzai

[leungbok]

I particulary like the new anulpha vid ;)
Seriously, your ubermall race is impressive :clap

[Axel]

Mad-Ice, that Ubermall vid was awesome. What's even more scary was how close the competition was behind you as well. I must sign up to these Avalon TT races.

Greetz Mad-Ice

I remember this race. On the overpass with the winning line in sight and more than a second ahead, and Mad-Ice unloads the entire 30 bullets of the machine gun into my back, causing me to ever so slowly fall off the edge and watch him go past and take the win! Haha, great stuff!

[Mad-Ice]

Great stuff indeed! This race was very tough from the beginning to the end and to take the win in the last lap is always so much fun! I am happy you are taking it as fun too! We had some real close races together, thanks mate and please check my other vids. I will be uploading more vids from this Avalon weekend, a total of ten vids.

See them soon!

[OBH]

awesome anulpha pass race mad-ice :)
you get bashed about pretty bad times, but busted out the best lap at the end. Great skills to shoot him off then go around him :)

though, i always sidestepped to fall off the bridge to hit those boost pads. its far easier just falling off normally after watching that. learn something new every day.

[leungbok]

Ten vids ? wow, mate. I look forward to see that (and i'm not alone):hyper

[kanar]

wow... thank you soo much mad-ice for that!!! hope you could repeat that nov 28/29/30 (yeah I lost my mind lol)

[Mad-Ice]

Thanks for all the comments guys! It would cool if you guys could rate the vids aswell!

Here are two new vids enjoy:

You're really smashing your controller buttons! :g

[AnErare]

Those captures are very awesome! I like the way you include the sound of your hands jamming away on the controller and had a great laugh when you were commenting on that trick sliding you off the track on Sol ;)

Am looking forward to see the other videos :)

Cheers!

[Mad-Ice]

Hi guys, I recorded all my races from last Avalon weekend. I raced from Anulpha Pass forward to Metropia Reverse. So these are my last vids for now. I hope I will be there next Avalon event! Please let me know what you think of the vids and if I should continue recording?

Have you ever seen a 101 zone run on ANULPHA PASS?
[VIDEO] ANULPHA PASS : ZONE 100, CLEAR! (http://www.consolewars.de/userpages/viewentry.php?bid=25555)

I had the best perspective. ;)

[kanar]

Mad-Ice, of course you should continue! Well ok, my voice doesn't count lol, but I hope you could record the next ones!

Problemsolver, congrats, awesome video too!

[lunar]

Please keep going, Mad-Ice, yes. :nod

I would love to see more races with guns on for maximum entertainment value.

[blackwiggle]

Yes, please stop.

Just watching Vineta K reverse was enough.

It's cruel to we mere mortals that have to watch you totally destroy any hope of achieving your lines and consistency.;)

Just out of interest,do you use the D-Pad or the stick for steering?

[Mad-Ice]

Thanks Lunar and Kanar for the motivation! Sorry Blackwiggle, shame on me then! I remember getting my name which I use for youtube from Lunar! Thanks again mate. He gave me this name because I did all the records from Pure with D-Pad, that is why; MadPadMan.

Problemsolver: No I never saw zone 100+! To be honest, I did not even try one single zone race in HD! I would like to watch though, but I am not going to DL it. Youtube is easy and it will not take ages for my PC to watch it. Welcome to the zone btw.

[ProblemSolver]

Nice vids, Mad-Ice. Quite clean.

The 240p video (given within my blog) can be streamed, too. The quality is
a lot better than the one given on YouTube.

quote: Welcome to the zone btw.

Thanks. Nice to meet you.

[leungbok]

Awesome videos, mate (did i already said that ? ;)). I'm proud to have the same br strategy as you, i just can't succeed in 5 clean laps like yours :lol

[AnErare]

Mad-Ice you really need to keep filming those :D
There are a few people here and in general who can cover races very good verbally or by written word but video's show so much more.

ProblemSolver, damn! That is such an awesome video and display of sheer performance! :nod If your field of play doesn't end at that track please capture more of them and post those as well, I would be very very interested to study HD's zoning possibilities :g

[Mad-Ice]

At Problemsolver: Okay I will stream asap. Thanks and no problem;) I hope to see you soon online.

At Leungbok: Thanks and no I can't remember you said my vids were awesome.8) You will get the consistency I am sure, you got it in you. The force is strong in you.:banzai

At AnErare: Thanks mate, our flying zone dutchman, this could be a very interesting competion.

[H3avyM3tal]

Wow, those are really expert level performance videos Mad-Ice. I have much to go before I get this good, and these help speed the process.

[ProblemSolver]

... Problemsolver: No I never saw zone 100+! To be honest, I did not even try one single zone race in HD!

Everybody has his favorite. :nod I've found out that either one likes
or "dislikes" the ZONE mode. But sometimes it simply breaks down that one
cannot be the master of all. For example, I'm not into SPEED LAPS atm.


... ProblemSolver, damn! That is such an awesome video and display of sheer performance! :nod

thx!


... If your field of play doesn't end at that track please capture more of them and post those as well, I would be very very interested to study HD's zoning possibilities :g

That was one of my intention since a lot of people have asked me for a
video to study how I do it. However, I have improved a bit since I've
recorded that video. My runs are now a bit smoother at zone 95+.

I would also do some more videos, but I need a better DigiCam at first. As
you can see, as faster the geometry goes as less was the cam able to track
(to encode) the given information resulting in a rather bad video quality
at zone 85+. I need a 60fps cam.

[leungbok]

At Leungbok: Thanks and no I can't remember you said my vids were awesome.8) You will get the consistency I am sure, you got it in you. The force is strong in you.:banzai

Thanks mate, but very attractive & easier the darkside of respawns is :lol

[OBH]

great vids mad-ice.
chengou rev, metropia rev, and moa therma rev are sheer class acts.

i didnt know about the barrel roll at the end of chengou rev, thatll be handy :)

[Mad-Ice]

Thanks again for the feedback guys! This will keep me going to make more vids. Also I am happy people are using the vids to become better!

[blackwiggle]

Maybe a video with your hands and the controller in the shot as well.
We can hear you slapping the controller around in the background,would be nice to know if it's a short stab at the air brakes or small side shifts your using.

And how your getting consistent barrel rolls,mine are far less so,well hit or miss to be totally honest a lot of the time,still haven't got the hang of the damm things,seems to be dependent on which controller I'm using and if it's a full moon or not.;)

[Mad-Ice]

Well, I am already happy that I could record it like this! I think I am not able to record my hands too, sorry!

Consistent BRs are very difficult, especially in the beginning I had to adjust my thumb movement from the PSP. The D-pad from the DS3 is somehow reacting different. When I tried to put my thumb in the middle of the D-pad and gently rubbing it left-right-left it reacted better. I hope this will work for you too.

[blackwiggle]

Yeah,rubbing my thumb over the D-Pad is what I'm resorting to,the problem I've found with that is, that because your hand position is dictated by the shape of the controller ,instead of being able to position your thumb [North/South as on the PSP ]and moving your thumb [East/West] to do a barrel roll.

On the controller your thumb tends to sit across the D-Pad in a [N/E-S/W position],so when I go to do a BR it either doesn't happen or it does happen but I've veered either left or right,and BR into something.
I have to move the whole of my left hand to line my thumb up to BR successfully.
PITA.
Makes me wonder why the decision to keep the control input to achieve a BR were still linked to the craft steering in HD,knowing that the interface had been changed.
I guess a controller mod of some type in on the cards for me.

[Asayyeah]

It took me time but eventually i did watched, commented and rated all your videos Matthijs : pure hot-show you offered us : keep the good work up !
I really enjoyed those vids like the one from ProblemSolver zone 101 rocks
:guitar
Thx guys to put your spare time doing this :clap

[chboing]

Thanks Mad-Ice for those avalon vids, very nice work, i'm waiting patiently for the next ! :)

one or 2 questions though. It seems to me you manage to place 2 side shift into the same turn sometimes. This is something i tried but i gave up rapidly with the conviction it was impossible. For me you have to stop turning and then turn again to be able to do another side shift ... and with the analog stick it's ... HARD (in the same turn ...) :)
so can you confirm you do this please ?
2nd question in ubermall or chenghou, do you pause thrust in the chicane or U turn ? i think i heard the reactor noise in ubermall ....

thx ! and keep up the very good work !

ps: problemsolver, dling your vid atm, i'm sure it'll be amazing :)

[Mad-Ice]

Thanks Arnaud and I am happy that you enjoyed them. Superb that you commented and rated each and every vid. Big Thumbs up!!!

You are welcome chboing. To answer your questions: Yes I am able to sideshift 2 times in the same turn. Airbrakes are located on R1 and L1, when I tried it with R2 and L2, I was not able to do it too! Try to make a little pause between the two sideshifts, if you press too fast after the first sideshift it will only be an airbrake move.

Yes, I sometimes let go of the thrust in the U-turn and the chicane of Chenghou Project and Ubermall. When my line isn't perfect I adjust with decreasing the thrust.

On the reverse ones these turns are far more easy and can be taken full thrust!

[ColdRem'S]

You guys are amazing!
These vids are fantastic Mad Ice! However, i'm a little disappointed, I will never be able to fly like this, as I play with the internal view. Some of the BRs you make are almost impossible in this config. Or at least much less precise!

Guess I have to train more before I meet you online :banzai

[Mad-Ice]

Thanks ColdRem'S, but don't be disappointed! Asa is also flying internal view and he is able to do the same BRs as me! It is really all in practise.

[eLhabib]

Very cool videos, Matthijs, didn't know youtube had a video quality (and size) update while I was away! Looking forward to the next avalon!

[Darkdrium777]

About Youtube: I noticed this yesterday, I thought something was wrong with Firefox :lol
Yeah it's a welcome change.

EDIT: It adds 720p support! Upload your videos in 1280x720 resolution and add &fmt=22 at the end of the URL to enjoy in true HD ;)
Example. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6-nVI7WqsrE&fmt=22)

[xtriko]

ColdRem's said "Some of the BRs you make are almost impossible in this config."
man, I really understand what you are saying... I'm also an internal view player. Zico was the worst thing to beat :S those BR's... ouch XD other thing was the zone zeus lol. I couldnt see Sh1t!!! plus I was always nervous :S
But after watching some of mad ice videos I was able to do some of the BR he did. Like he said, Practice is the answer. Exemple. after the "narrow jump" into the chicane. we can all do the BR. It's simple. but! i can't do it and do the next one after the chicane. If I do the 1st, i can't do the 2nd. If i miss the 1st, i can easly do the 2nd. I need some time to play (wich i don't have now :S). I think I will have a marathon this weekend ;) ehehehe

[ProblemSolver]

... I really enjoyed those vids like the one from ProblemSolver zone 101 rocks
:guitar
Thx guys to put your spare time doing this :clap

Thx. Yes, I've put some effort into that video. You may wonder why you
can't see the explotion of the craft. Quite unfortunately, the memory was
full after I had reached zone 101. However, the fade out of the video (the
heartbeat, the flatline, ...) sums up my feelings at that very moment.

[Mad-Ice]

Here is a new vid of the Avalon event of last weekend! Thanks Kanar for hosting again, thumbs up!!

Chenghou Project TT with the most amazing start for all others but me, very funny to see this turbo start. I hope you all will enjoy it.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o4eRbmyTDvM

Greetz Mad-Ice

[leungbok]

Wow, you were not very advantaged at the beginning, mate, wonderfull race :+

[Darkdrium777]

On the contrary, I think he was. This lag made it so that he did not get bumped by any of the ships at the start, and ensured him victory because even though the others were appearing ahead of him, they actually were slower because they bumped each other at the start. The lag explains the timing weird stuff with the race times.

As I said on youtube, I like the white flash and blur at the start :D

[lunar]

that is weird lag, but how many perfect laps? I hate you. ;) Seriously, great control and concentration, you make it look easy, it isn`t. :banzai

[Mad-Ice]

Thanks for the comments guys. At Dark: Well maybe this lag gave me an advantage but that it ensured my victory is a bit over the top. I still have to fly the whole race and not making too many mistakes!

At Lunar: yes I love you too ;)

[eLhabib]

Wow, very smooth race! Even if the lag would have made it impossible to actually bump the other ships, you were passing by every one of them (but one) extremely cleanly! I know how much I hate it to have a bulk in front of me, because passing them cleanly is so hard to do, and it usually messes up my raceline because I concentrate on the other ships and not the track. But you stayed extremely calm and controlled - bravo :clap

[Wellington86]

Ohh that's what happened here. I thought the game had glitched when it told me I got second, I wasn't even sure if others could see the 'mistake' I was seeing. But that insane beginning explains it. It actually looks very amusing.

It also resolves the question of the 'super' fast starts that were being discussed elsewhere. They're definitely just lag.

[mic-dk]

Heh that start pretty much sums up how I feel when playing on-line. I usually nail that turbo-start though - it's just the rest of the race that's a problem ;)

Truly great racing Mad-Ice!

[Mad-Ice]

More, more, more vids. Some interesting races with a Chenghou Project Reverse shortcut, an overtake in the final corner, heavy damage because of weapons everywhere, critical energy and lots of fun, enjoy and please add comments.

[eLhabib]

Really nice videos, Matthijs! Have to race you again soon!

[H3avyM3tal]

Mad-Ice, you should know that these videos make it easy for people to learn your racing line (and everyone's else)! Make you wonder when will someone come along and lay down mines or bombs carefully :)

Not that I imply anything.

[lunar]

The problem is you have to be infront of him to bomb him.:cold

Thanks, Mad Ice, these are the tracks I really wanted to see. And seeing more weapons races is great.

Superb reactions to take the Chenghou cut so soon after picking up the turbo, but I guess in a TT you would normally cut even more track.

I will have a really good look at the videos later on. :)

[leungbok]

Yes i agree Lunar, Mad-Ice wears very well his name to try the "turbo shortcut" of chengou in a race online :lol
well i'll bring my poor contribution to the avalon with some vidéos.
Don't compare with Mad-Ice's videos, mine are low quality and unworthy for youtube (because of my very old tv and the low skills of the pilot, lol). But enjoy anyway ;)

great videos, Leungbok & Mad-Ice, thank you so much!. Now we just have to contact a videogame channel, maybe they could record the next event lol.

[Lance]

"....wonder when will someone come along and lay down mines or bombs carefully

Not that I imply anything."

"The problem is you have to be infront of him to bomb him."

Someone could be in front of him by his second lap. And their first.

Not that I'm implying anything. :evil

:D

[Mad-Ice]

Lol at Lunar and Lance, naughty thoughts, I do like!

At Leungbok: I just watched Sebenco Descent ;) Very nice race mate :clap If you try to use pitch down, you will see your times drop even more!

Just watched Chenghou Project Reverse: First place and a pretty clean race. I could hear you wanted to say: "putain" when the BRs wouldn't work!

Nice fight for first with Kaori on Moa Therma Reverse. You must really love the Mission Impossible tune?

Ubermall, consistent race. I think you already know it, but to be sure, you can use your turbo just after the hill when you are already going low, hit the turbo and fly over the chicane landing with the boost from the BR just before the two speedpads before the next chicane.

Very nice Sol2 reverse race, winning everytime from Chaos80 thumbs up! But whoaaaa, please no more Mission Impossible tune.

Metropia Reverse: Auch, respawn after the turbo, but luckely it worked the next time.

Moa Therma reverse; lost it on the magstrip in lap 3, but gained your control back and you had a good fight with Kanar! Very nice vids mate.

[Lance]

Don't forget H3avyM3tal's innocent lack of implication. ;)

[leungbok]

To Mad-Ice, loool, mate and thanks for the advices, i'll try that as soon as possible.
It was my "avalon mission impossible day" :lol (last time i use that tune, i swear ;))
You can't imagine the amount of "putain", when those f$*^%g brs are not working (i had to censored some vidéos):lol:g
You have noticed how kaori & kanar are pushing my ship on the walls, very sad from french friends ;)

[lunar]

Great racing Leungbok. Superb battle on Chenghou Rev and with Kanar on Moa rev, very tense. Some ramming action was caught on tape, but I`m sure it was all accidental :) I think you nailed some parts of Moa better in the other race, but maybe the tension was getting to you and that was a very good watch.

Metropia, crazy stuff.... I don`t think you will find a shortcut there, but nice try. ;)

Really clean Sol reverse. I think I just learned last night how to take that horrible left hander at the top of the hill where the ship always jumps. I`m doing the same sort of line as you anyway.

Are some of your friends signing in and out all the time to try to distract you?

great flying, I can`t give you any piloting advice, but I can advise you to get a few new songs on your playlist. Actually, maybe keep it because mission impossible works surprisingly well :lol

[leungbok]

Lol, Lunar :g
You're right no shortcut at this place, but it was a nice try yes ;)
For sol2 R try to br on the hard left hander, it can helps you to shorten the turn and you will have the benefit of a boost.
You too you noticed that my pretended "friends" are always trying to disturb my concentration ! and they say that i'm paranoïd !!;)
The mission impossible tune was fun during the avalon event, but after the race looking at the vidéos i found that boring too :lol Don't care, more music next time.:guitar

[djKyoto]

Sorta of a uneccessary question, but are there any online videos posted that feature little ol' me? :beer

[G'Kyl]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mIGS71YuP1Q

Apart from being a great race, what tune is that? :)

Ben

[Amorbis]

I've been testing a few different methods of recording races and managed to get a race on YouTube. I used a camera that wasn't really designed for film but it turned out OK, something went wrong with the breaking up though. The track is Chenghou Project with Wotan, Wellington, me and some others racing. Wotan won and Wellington had an unlucky elimination at the end.
Feel free to criticise the camera quality and my (not so good) piloting skills:
http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=XIkF01AABog

[rdmx]

Out of the Blue is a sweet tune :)

[leungbok]

Very nice race Amorbis, awesome lap 4 with no mistake allowed :+

[Mad-Ice]

Amorbis, very cool race. You are able to get Icaras very smoothly through the hairpin of Chenghou Project. Big thumbs up. I made a comment on youtube too.

G'Kyl: I will look up the song for you later on.

[Amorbis]

Thanks for the compliments, I might film myself playing more often. I'd be on guard if you join my race, you never know I might be doing it for YouTube! :eek

The song is System F - Out of the Blue, I think it might be the remixed version.

[Wellington86]

Well it's kind of you to say that my elimination was unfortunate. This looks very much like the race where I was doing unnecessary barrel rolls with low energy. Then when I was extremely near death on the last lap I somehow managed to float up and crash into the top of the entrance to the tunnel after the long left-hander, which killed me. So really it was all my own fault, haha.

Thanks for the video though. I'd do some videos myself but I don't think I have any suitable recording equipment.

[Amorbis]

I've filmed a tournament that I had with Wellington today and posted the results on YouTube. Well done to Wellington who won, but only just!

Nice vids, mate, your Ubermall is brilliant, and sebenco very disputed :clap

[lunar]

Great stuff, Amorbis. That Ubermall video has opened my eyes to new possibilities, I didn`t realise you could cut off so much track to the right on the bridge jump. I wouldn`t be optimistic racing you on that track. :cold

Great Sebenco battle too. Very impressed at how you get so many Barrel Rolls in a race with that low shield ship.

[OBH]

excellent ubermall racing line.
I reckon thae stardard one is faster if you pitch up to avoid turning left after the first br, but that looks like a very reliable line, especially if i have low shield.

good stuff mate.

[Wellington86]

I only seem to be able to watch the second one in high quality.

I first saw that Ubermall trick last week when ExpitariuS was doing it. If I'm right behind them then they tend to boost off while my screen is rotating as I do my barrel roll, so to me it just looks like they disappear into thin air. It baffled me when ExpitariuS did it, and although by then I knew how it was done it certainly surprised me when Amorbis disappeared lol. Great performance!

And good tournament, it's a shame you didn't film your win in the first race.

[Amorbis]

I didn't do any filming today unfortunately, but I might do a bit more in the week. The Ubermall trick is very good when you get a boost and shaves off about half a second to a second depending on the height at which you boost and how close to the flower arrangements you go. I think I picked it up from GTP_(can't remember), an Irish pilot. It really was mental seeing them whoosh away so quickly.

I don't know why some won't go in high quality. YouTube is being crazy to me!

[H3avyM3tal]

Thanks for those vids Amorbis! Your line is very clean and your driving is ace!
More people to learn from :)

[OBH]

That ubermall trick is brilliant. if its hectic at the bridge, that is a sure way to keep out of trouble on the chicane. One for every player to have up their sleeve.

I wait for the day i try it and theres a bomb there :)

[OBH]

Okay, after watching Mad-Ice on http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mIGS71YuP1Q I DID NOT KNOW you could boost over the gab after the first mag strip, and miss out the right hander completely!! :) Thats so cheap but so good!

edit:
also, after watching your avalon record on vineta k reverse. I didnt know ag systems can hit a br on all 5 laps, hit walls, and still have a bit of shield to spare. harimau can only br 4 laps and your already living dangerously!

[eLhabib]

AG-SYS has HUGE shields in HD. Unfortunately.

[OBH]

br reduction should be a %, say 17% or something. Then every ship can at least hit a br every lap, as long as they dont hit any walls.

[Darkdrium777]

The amount of energy taken by a barrel roll is 15%, no matter what the shield stat of the ship is. So every ship can do a br per lap, as long as they don't hit any walls, already. ;)

[OBH]

Really??? I was certain i was losing more shield.... i shall test your claim when i get a chance :) If true i was losing due to flying like a mug then :D

[OBH]

My first attempt at recoring :)
http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=g05dP6HTOZs

Its a bit dark, not a great race, i didnt make good use of youtubes widescreen, my speakers were too far away, and it was about 4am after a very merry and drunk christmas :D:beer but its all pratice for recording endland vs france.

[KIGO1987]

Pendulum you listening to there Haydn, nice! If i where to do that and create a video, one you'll see my ****ty 51cm CRT tv, two; you'll hear to incrediable sound system causing incoherent sound on the video, and three; me cursing really really frequently and intensly.

[Zoth-Ommog]

Most of you guys seem to use exterior view, i find it impossible to use. Anyone else feel hopeless with exterior view? Or am i the only one who uses only cockpit view...

[blackwiggle]

I'm cockpit view, but it seems I might have to change as it limits your ability to see what's going on around/behind you,and you get trampled underfoot a LOT when playing really fast players,where otherwise you could block them,or at least attempt to.
The nose of another craft coming up beside you through the cockpit can meld into the side walls,where top down view you can see the whole craft and the way they are piloting.

[Cerium]

...and three; me cursing really really frequently and intensly.

Hah! Same here... except rather than colorful words, I tend to yell "MOVE!" and "I WAS NO WHERE NEAR THAT ****** BOMB!" a lot.


@Haydn:
Good choice of music. It's a shame most dnb songs don't pick up until right before the end of the race. Though, most of Metrik's stuff works nicely (Stranger and Moving On being my personal favorites).

[stin]

Here is my first video online for you guys.

Those videos are quite embarrassing for me that you filmed today Haydn, :redface: I guess it was just one of those days :frown:. The videos are good quality and show all the action, it would be great if you recorded any team tournaments! I'll just have to get my act together for next time :)

[leungbok]

Nice races, mate :beer

[pirahpac]

here a little video show some br or double br and a bad tt in sebenco http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=oZfwB-Cf6h4

[OBH]

good video! shows a lot i didnt know!
the extra br at the beginning of sol 2 reverse is one of the most sneaky things ive ever seen!

Im surprised this thread hasnt been stickied. a whole weath of information here for pilots new and old :beer

youve given me an idea to try and record the best places to use AP. cheers!

edit:
do you actually gain any time on metropia reverse when you boost onto the mag strip mid way round??

[Mad-Ice]

Very cool BR locations on Vineta K, Sol2 Reverse and Metropia! Big thumbs up! Greetz Mad-Ice

[leungbok]

Hey mate, another awesome example of your "skate spirit" way of racing :+

[pirahpac]

[

edit:
do you actually gain any time on metropia reverse when you boost onto the mag strip mid way round??[/QUOTE]

no its just for fun

[eLhabib]

cool video! the only thing that is slightly worrying me is the double BR you do on Ubermall - would it be possible to chain even more BRs using this technique? because that would seriously break the SLs and TTs for me, every straight would become a BR-fest :(

[leungbok]

I don't think everybody can pull those kinds of br consistently, mate. And br only can't makes a top ten ranking. In the tt of metropia R & sebenco, Pihrapac beats his record with few barrel rolls, i think his skills are beyond the ability of succeeding in br. So don't care for the tt contest ;)

[JJPAP]

Jesus Christ, Pirahpac! What a great video, I almost started laughing (especially while watching the double br´s at Ubermahl).
Now I certainly realize where and how to cut of some couple of tenths.
If you could only send me some faster reflexes and a new nervous system, I would be quite happy.
Very well done.

[Wotan]

I made a little video about BR's location on VK , SeC F and R , Uber R and Anulpha . I'll do other tracks if i find a lot of time ^^ .

http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=Az5N9kmzXGI

[Danterich]

Very nice Wotan:+. Now I defenitly think about changing from internal to external view for further success.And wow "Massive Attack" and wipeout, that´s a combination. Never thought of that, smoothy. c u on tracks

[eLhabib]

Pirapac, after seeing your video and noticing that you have quite a different raceline on Sebenco and Metropia R, I had to try TT on those 2 tracks (never done TT before, only SL). Sebenco I find especially intriguing, since it's really hard to whip out 5 perfect laps with all those BRs and not messing up ;)
But on both tracks I am now directly behind you on the leaderboards, and I think I can fly about 1.5 sec faster on Sebenco (had about 4 or 5 missed BRs, and some wall contact + missed boost pads), and about 1 sec faster on Metropia R. I just need to pull it perfectly once ;)

On Sebenco I really wonder why you use the turbo on top of the hill. I BR there without turbo, land on the crest, BR again. I use the turbo coming out of the tunnel, BR above the chicane.

On Metropia R I have the same turbo spot, but I pull down (under the metal trussing) and catch the speedpad in the bend.

[Cerium]

Wow... learn a lot by watching first hand how you guys handle some of these tracks.

pirahpac, in your Sebenco run, I've noticed you're not even attempting one of the final BR attempts immediately after the final chicane when you fall from the hill into that hard right. Might help shave off another couple tenths.
Your Metropia reverse run is pretty crazy as well. Though, I'm curious why you boost over the mini tunnel thing at the end and not into it? Wouldn't it be slightly faster to stay closer to the ground?

Also, what are you guys using to record/edit these videos?

[pirahpac]

for sebenco i use always my turbo here cuz i did my 22.08 sl like that..and one time in a tt i did ..21.87 (9 pad 6 br i have a photo) so i continue..and for metropia rev u right i still forgot to nose down for get last pad after boost br

[Alejess]

Many thanks to Pirahpac & Wotan for those great videos. Those BRs look so easy when watching them on YouTube, but most of my attempts to actually replicate them ended very messily :D

[lunar]

also huge thanks from me to Pirhapac and Wotan for the videos, some great stuff to learn. I agree with Haydn about the BR on sol reverse. That is just amazing.

[rushin]

Pirahpac.. wow, especially metropia reverse. it's 03:00 but still i want to get out of bed and try that boost over the tunnel :D

Funny stuff from my son verses Xtriko! ;)

[Darkdrium777]

Was mom happy that he was talking loudly like that? :lol

Funny stuff indeed :) Tell him he's a good pilot though :+

[xtriko]

stin you old bastard! XD LOL! "Hey Mauro! my son is going to f4ck your a$$!" XD lol it's these things that i miss the pulse times... i could race you all with my girl :) now, all she gets, is to watch lol. I have to upload a few videos that i have :) not something too special but i'll do it ;)

[Hellfire_WZ]

Finally got a decent enough camera to make some videos myself and have set up a YouTube channel. Nothing really groundbreaking so far, just a few TT runs on various courses. Will be filling it up with some online races in the future though :)

http://uk.youtube.com/user/HellfireWZ

Make sure you watch them in high quality, normal quality is almost unwatchable

[Darkdrium777]

That's a lot better than what I thought it would be, from what you said. :) How is the setup, turn of the lights? Camera goes where? etc. Thanks ;)

Nice quality.

[pirahpac]

heu!!?? u stop accelerate in the first turn on chengou?? i br before and dont stop accelerate..its very more fast..

[Mad-Ice]

I made comments on all your vids Charlie! Very nice racing with the purple brick.

[H3avyM3tal]

Very nice flying Hellfire! I should take all yous example and post some vids too...

[Hellfire_WZ]

That's a lot better than what I thought it would be, from what you said. :) How is the setup, turn of the lights? Camera goes where? etc. Thanks ;)

Nice quality.

It took a fair bit of setting up, mainly to remove all the auto lighting adjustments as it killed the framerate. All other stuff was pretty much my normal setup, room light was on. Only thing I don't normally do is turn the volume up that high so the microphone picks it all up. It was all recorded straight from gameplay, nothing was added to the video. The camera itself was sitting on my desk in front of me on top of 11 DVD cases to get it up high enough. Could still see over the top though :)


heu!!?? u stop accelerate in the first turn on chengou?? i br before and dont stop accelerate..its very more fast..

I can sometimes get through that corner without letting up, but because of the heaviness of the craft the turning circle is so big it requires an exact line that I can very rarely replicate. It needs to pretty much skim the apex of the corner, and more often than not I slam straight into it. I prefer the slightly slower, albeit safer, line ;)

There's a few more being uploaded now, should be ready later. Again, nothing groundbreaking, just my attempt at some time trials.

[Mu5]

Great Videos - I would have liked to have seen you racing a ghost, have you got them turned off yes?

Nice racing bro :)

[afatsuoM]

Hello all, i'm new to this forum, but i love all the video's in this thread. I'll try to make some of my own soon.

The video's will be recorded through my dad's harddisk recorder in SD quality, so no cam. I hope to have them up on Youtube this weekend.

I'm not a very good pilot, but i managed to get the Zone Zeus trophy so i guess i'm not bad either. I still need to nail some of those Phantom elite single races. WipEout HD rocks, but i find the game quite hard to master.

[kanar]

Hellfire, nice vids. Amazing quality... I think we have the same screen lol. I love qirex now!

afatsuoM, looking forward to your videos too

++ I forgot, Pirahpac : WHAT A YouTube CHANNEL LOL

[leungbok]

Here's my first youtube vidéo, a sebenco online race during a tournament http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=k5TJnuGpw5k
The hoster was kut59 (a fast frenchy ;))
Kgb1971 won the race (i'm a nice rival, don't you think ? ;))

[Darkdrium777]

Got a HD camera for B-Day. You know what that means ;)

[OBH]

As I just mentioned in the Avalon thread, Ive uploaded the first 4 avalon races i took part in in Asayyeahs room. (and the first videos of me riding for my new team!)

[afatsuoM]

Sorry guys. I promised you some video's last weekend, but something came up (missed Bling Brigade AGAIN!).

I've been working on my first video and it was a bit harder than i had in mind. i started recording Zone on Anulpha Pass, but there was just a little bit of lag while recording. That's why i only managed to get to Zone 45, while i normally finish anywhere between 65 and 75. My aim was a high quality video (no cam), so i hope it works out as i hoped it would.

The video is uploading now. The link will be added when it's finished.

As I just mentioned in the Avalon thread, Ive uploaded the first 4 avalon races i took part in in Asayyeahs room. (and the first videos of me riding for my new team!)

1 Chenghou Reverse (with weapons) and 3 Metropia Reverse (2 with, 1 without :)). hope you enjoy them :hyper

Here's my video:

Quite a bad race because of the lag (looking back it's even worse). The quality looks good, but i'll try to upload an even better version tomorrow.

[blackwiggle]

I'm surprised you didn't use your boost for the shortcut on that last lap of Chenghou R haydn.

[kaori]

As I just mentioned in the Avalon thread, Ive uploaded the first 4 avalon races i took part in Asayyeah room.
It was an impostor room!

[OBH]

yeah i gathered ;)

still good fun.

[SaturnReturn]

OK. So I recorded some footage tonight to see if I could get the hang of this video technology stuff. I can now get stuff off the dvd but would appreciate if someone could download the video here from megaupload (http://www.megaupload.com/?d=RWOZVAGJ) and see if it's sufficient quality and if it plays ok etc. It's nothing special, just a test. If it works I should be able to get some vids of a crazy tournament from tonight with Wellington86, Luxoflux and a host of brutal frenchmen.

Will be able to put them on youtube when I find the patience to wait that long.

[OBH]

I'm surprised you didn't use your boost for the shortcut on that last lap of Chenghou R haydn.

Thats not something i often try. I try to hit a br sideshifting over that corner instead, and save my boost for later.

Granted however, that is a short cut i should practice till im comfortable with it. A sweet line and br would be nice.... at the moment im 50/50 at best just staying on the track. :)

[Wellington86]

SaturnReturn, I downloaded the video but there was only audio, no video. I might have done something wrong though...

[rdmx]

I'm guessing you don't have the codec that saturnreturn used.

[IH8YOU]

Try using a media player such as VLC (www.videolan.org) - if you haven't already. It plays just about every format under the sun without having to download codecs, and configure anything.

I haven't used it on PC for a while now - but I still use it for OSX, though. If anything, it probably got better since then.

If you're hearing sound but no picture (as stated above me) it's almost 100% certain you need the correct codec.

You can download codec packs for Windows Media Player - but I've seen so many people screw their systems from bad packs, improper installations or codecs that aren't actually codecs (if you catch my drift here) With my old age I'm lazy, and just want things to work out of the box, so I dumped fudging with WMP and TCMP.

[Cerium]

http://www.cccp-project.net/

The best codec pack ever. Even includes Media Player Classic (which, in my personal opinion, is better than VLC; but to each their own). I've put it on several systems without any issues. And, should you hate MPC, VLC or whatever, the codecs work with every player which use external codecs (WMP, for instance).

[SaturnReturn]

SaturnReturn, I downloaded the video but there was only audio, no video. I might have done something wrong though...

I doubt you did anything wrong. Had a hell of a time getting videos off my dad's camera. Then had a tough time getting them compressed decently.

I used VLC player to transcode the files from the dvd as I don't have any software for it on my PC. If anyone can point me towards the best settings VLC's transcoding feature then that would be most helpful. Otherwise I'll have to hijack the family PC tonight.

[Darkdrium777]

With VLC it works. But only VLC. :D

[Luxoflux]

Downloaded VLC to and it works like a charm. I hope youre able to post those videos from that tournament last night. Never seen so many eliminations :) great fun

[SaturnReturn]

First one. Higher quality on the way if all goes to plan. I don't think people will be able to make out that you shoved me off the weapon pad (thus leading to my elimination in this one) :P Good times.

Wipeout HD ASTRAL Warmup - Chenghou (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=BQ1uUXfpJg8)

[Darkdrium777]

Yes I can.
Encode in 720x480 for a high quality link to appear on youtube.

Anyone has tips to edit videos from high definition .MOVs? (1280x720)

[Danterich]

It was an impostor room!

Please, kaori, if your accusing or judging someone of something, go into details.
Being involved in those mentioned races is not the only reason I call you for explanaiton, besides I think such postings are poisining the community, thx

[blackwiggle]

Danterich,the "Impostor room"is in reference of the Avalon meeting over the weekend,there were numerous PS3 set up each with their own display in the same household,each PS3 had a forum member logged in under their name ,be it Kanar,Kaori or Asayyeah.....but each of these players moved to a different PS3 to play without changing names.
So you might of thought you were racing against Kaori when in fact you were racing against one of the other two.[Impostors]

[Danterich]

Thank you, blackwiggle. Now it makes sense to me. Pardon me, but i´m still a newbie in this community. Just wanted to clear this , thx

[kaori]

Yes I was Asayyeah ;), but I was not the only imposter, louie2001 was also another. You are welcome Danterich, glad to see you here!
Sometimes, kanar was Asayyeah and Asayyeah was kanar too!

Hi guys. here are my first videos of random online races. They're random because I can't ask my wife all the time to record the races lol :P I have a few more videos, but I haven't uploaded them yet.

Oh god, I remember that now! After I failed to barrel roll you appeared right behind me and I spent the rest of the race :turd myself...
And I've just experienced the whole thing again after watching that! So darn close. I dunno how you can race so well with the cockpit view, i felt sick when you did a BR! :dizzy

Cool vids Xtriko and a damn good race to :) I look forward to meeting you on the tracks again...
(I'm glad my Harimau showed your AG whose boss on that last lap ;) "Oh come on!" :lol )

[YouAreFubar]

That's all for now :) hope you guys enjoy this![/QUOTE]

Good videos! It looks so good through the cockpit view, I dont know how you can handle it though.... Ive tried a few times and I can just never judge the corners right. Good effort!

[Darkdrium777]

Chaotic is right! Only feisar had escaped because the quake didn't hit him :( ;)

[Feisar31]

Haha, I can't say I remember that last race but I guess it was from my recent AG-Systems period. :) Nice videos! I have to echo Greenix and YouAreFubar: I don't know how you manage with the cockpit view! :blarg

[blackwiggle]

Guys check out the new youtube web browser for the PS3 and those "other" consoles.
Easier to watch all these videos now.
http://news.cnet.com/8301-17939_109-10143648-2.html

Is that a video camera you have, Xtriko?, amazing, extremely clean and very sharp!!!.

I`m using my webcam to record my hd atm.:paperbag

Will soon be available, and make sure to watch in HD :) (Once the link appears, I hope it will it's .wmv at 1280x720 30FPS)

[Mad-Ice]

Xtriko and Darkdrium very nice races! I made some comments on youtube too.

[leungbok]

Hey xtriko, mate, the camera moves a lot in your vidéo. Don't tell me that you were holding the camera in one hand and the paddle in the other :eek
:lol

[OBH]

I tried out that browser, isnt bad. Loads the screen very quickly but the movies painfully slowly. If they sort it out thought, great stuff!!

I didnt realise so many of you guys had videos on youtube, been tryig to make my way through them.

[Darkdrium777]

Planning another video, also in HD, but with better sound this time :)

And about the youtube.tv thing, it doesn't work on my PS3, it keeps redirecting me to ca.youtube.com, even though on PC I use www.youtube.com (For link convenience, as it puts it automatically in other people's languages if someone clicks on www, but not on fr or de or etc.)

[xtriko]

thanks for the comments :D I'm so glad you liked the videos mates!
lol leungbok. no I wasn't :P it was my wife that was holding the camera ;)
I'm going to upload a few more soon.
Ps. I'm going to tell my wife to not move so much lol.

[stin]

Why not buy a tripod for yourself!;) it`s extremely sturdy and very still.

stevie;)

[zeeZ]

Or use a chair or some other flat surface. If your cam's strangely built so it keeps tilting or falling over, grab some LEGOs and build a tripod yourself.. or use some duct tape..

Couldn't that be considered an insult? "Your're doing worse than duct taped lego"... I guess nothing is superior to duct taped lego..

[xtriko]

Another race with Weapons Off. This time is Anulpha Pass Reverse.
Feat. Asayyeah, Expitarius, JJPAP, Saturnreturn, jsv (don't know him) and fabylas (don't know him too). comments by my dear wife (Spitfire2097) that can't keep her mouth shut lol

She's also a WipEout Pilot ;) but more in WipEout Pulse ehehe

[Darkdrium777]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UJo63xhF4NM&fmt=22

It's not as smooth for some reason unknown to me. The source video is fine, it's during the rendering process that something somewhere somehow doesn't work. Basically the same capture method and everything too, also I used the same computer to render it, etc. Anyways, I hope the next one will be OK.
Now with better sound :)

3 race tourny involving me, wellington, greenix, djkyoto, kingheim and tesser.

there was actually 4 races... but i totally messed up on recording the 4th, and instead got a video of me apologising to FrostE for starting before he arrived :)

Race 1 (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=Hd8w-Y4sXbE&eurl=http://uk.youtube.com/my_videos_edit2?ns=1&video_id=Hd8w-Y4sXbE&next=%2Fmy_videos2%3Fpi%3D0%26ps%3D20%)
Race 2 (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=YKZZDopzg5U&eurl=http://uk.youtube.com/my_videos_edit2?ns=1&video_id=YKZZDopzg5U&next=%2Fmy_videos2%3Fpi%3D0%26ps%3D20%)
Race 3 (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=rRyHvFGuGsI&eurl=http://uk.youtube.com/my_videos_edit2?ns=1&video_id=rRyHvFGuGsI&next=%2Fmy_videos2%3Fpi%3D0%26ps%3D20%)

hehe.... i should also say there was a tourny before... but i had the WORST 4 races ever... and i refused to upload a video wich was nothing more than me embaressing myself :g sorry guys! It must be said kingheim won that one.... id love to say "deservedly won", but i wouldnt know!!

also if someone can help me get good quality youtube videos id love the help. i got a small file size, the right format, codec, resolution etc, but cant get the same awesome quality as on my laptop.

I never managed to get good quality videos on youtube, it always butchered them. Well it still butchers the LQ and HQ versions, but HD seems fine. Here's a more updated list of what you need. (http://help.youtube.com/support/youtube/bin/answer.py?answer=132460&topic=16621) If all fails, look around for some other free video hosting. I recently stumbled across WeGame (http://www.wegame.com). They have good quality for free gaming videos..


Woah you got quite a few auto pilots on Sol

[OBH]

oh yes! but well used :beer

[Darkdrium777]

I was using Movie Maker before Vegas, and with Movie Maker I used the following:

http://www.wipeoutzone.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=508&stc=1&d=1232562494

Although this is the Vista version of Movie Maker, similar settings exist on Windows XP. Just tick the ''More Settings'' box and scroll through the choices until you get something like the picture above. Exporting with these settings should nail you something like this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5n9IneWzQYg&fmt=18) when you watch in high quality.

The link below may help. Tells you about resolution and codecs for high quality. Depends how awesome you want it to be. I got a cheap HD camera (720p) and can upload the .mov files straight to youtube in HD, but they're pretty big.
How to get high quality youtube videos (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=hLtTNE61iik)

Here's one of mine that uploaded fairly quickly, despite being about 100MB I think. Not awesome quality but you can still read the player names which is the main thing I want on the videos. You can compare it to the HD video which I uploaded straight from the camera. I find HD loads too slow as well. Can't be bothered waiting that long for a 2 min race.

I assume that HQ has a limit so if you can upload at the exact resolution (and similar bitrate) that youtube uses then that would probably be most efficient. Although I am completely speculating and don't really know much about this stuff to be honest.

High Quality (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=weGOWUbvGq0)

HD (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=uIKh4I4NsD4)

They're pretty washed out looking but that's just because my camera is so poor. Also, please ignore the strange sheep sound I make when close to elimination :p

EDIT: Hadn't seen ZeeZ's post above. That list seems to pretty much tell it all.

haydn - the HQ vid I just saw of yours is good enough quality for me. However, it downloads to only about 2/3 the file size of the one of mine. It doesn't even play in VLC for me either so maybe try a different codec?

[OBH]

my first attempt at uploading to www.wegame.com
http://www.wegame.com/watch/WipeoutHD_Tourny_20_01_09_2_3_Sol_2/

feedback on what it looks like / loading speed etc would be useful. for me it looks fine but takes slightly long to load despite only being 61 meg.

the other races ive done are same quality but only 31 meg, will uploaad those soon.

if people like it we should make an faq on how to make good quality videos. the quality of this site is far better. Nice one zeeZ.

[SaturnReturn]

haydn - the quality of that vid is really good compared to the youtube ones and it downloads reasonably quickly for me too - about 3 mins to finish. Might sign up to that site. Thanks to you and zeeZ.

[yeldar2097]

just watched it, much less torturous than watching nassty youtube vids. was streaming but i didn't need to pause so good job all round (and gratz on the win)

[DjManiac21]

Wow, there's some rally good videos in here, I'm glad I'm having time to go through them :+

I recently recorded some videos http://www.youtube.com/Djmaniac21

Nothing really mind blowing so far, but some lines are solid. There's a few mishaps too :banzai

Now I'll look around the thread to suscribe to those channels I'm missing!

[KGB]

Really good quality, some of the best ive seen.
Ive posted comments on them all. :lol
You really should of won, next time we meet, we'll do it again.

[AG-wolf]

i had a couple good runs:

Sebenco Climb:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OPaHf-B4S3I&fmt=18

Ubermall:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xno0fx-fyiI&fmt=18

[rdmx]

Next time a big event is on, I can use this to live stream at the expense of my own framerate:
http://ustream.tv/channel/wipeout-hd-live-stream
If you click now thats a live ps3 playing.
EDIT: Now off-air.

[OBH]

i dont think i won any friends checking out djmaniacs videos in the library :g

insertcoin that live streaming would be excellent for arena events.

[pirahpac]

haaaaa dont fall!!!! http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=oDGv1nbgwVo O_O

[yeldar2097]

pirahpac there's definately something wrong with you. i feel rather inadequate. thanks for sharing! :)

[leungbok]

4 barrel rolls on chengou reverse (only 2 really usefull) ;)

[Constrictor]

Any european old-school gamers might appreciate this run on Ubermall:

It was you who hit me in the 1st round and left me totally disoriented ... Yeah, I'm on youtube.

[yeldar2097]

blimey AG-wolf, you definitely drew the long straw as far as AP's/turbos are concerned.
great race!
i really must try and get recorded by one of you some day...or record my own (an embarrass myself in the process)

[Zoth-Ommog]

Erm.. that first quake threw me down the track :lol and in second or third lap, same happened again in exactly same point, but not by quake, there was a nasty bomb.. so not so nice race to me. But you raced great mate ;)

[AG-wolf]

lol I think it's funny when people find themselves in videos online :P

Zoth and Constrictor, those were some awesome races that day, I had an absolute blast

Yeldar- I got wicked lucky with AP and turbo's in that race, admittedly ;)

[archman]

aargh!!! i definitely need to steal one ps3 somewhere...geez, i'd like to participate :(
:)

[djKyoto]

I wonder why I don't play much online atm.

2 races i've managed to lose all 100 of my shield due to ram-lag, as I call it. I'm sure SaturnReturn's seen me drop back to the back of the feild at the start of most races.

[SaturnReturn]

Yup. It's pretty bad tonight. I wondered why I kept winning so often. Thought it was just my awesomeness :( Doesn't help having a triakis on the room.
Earlier on Greenix and I appeared to coalesce. Once apart again I came off better as I had 11% shields and Greenix spontaneously combusted in the middle of my screen. In another race later I had him locked on with a missile that just flew up in the air, followed seconds later by the lock on sound effect.

Any reason why this is in the video thread?
To keep things on topic:
My videos on wegame (http://www.wegame.com/users/SaturnReturn/videos/)

[djKyoto]

Crap, I thought I clicked on the online meetings thread, sorry :\

[yeldar2097]

saturn: great vids. AND...I'm in one of them! yippee!
great birthday present, i knew you'd come through.
i think my brother has an HD camera so i might give that a whirl this weekend.

[Wellington86]

Yeah I enjoyed watching them SaturnReturn, especially those older ones. I can't remember the races at all so I'm able to cheer myself on, lol. If possible I would like to see the first race of the first Astral tournament the other night, but it's not essential.

And I'm in agreement with everyone about wegame, it's much better than youtube.

[SaturnReturn]

Wellington, that particular video is censored. I wasn't quite ready for the start so it's just be throwing myself off the track at every possible opportunity as I wonder where my rock music went. Anything particular you want to see in it? You can always let me know and I'll have a look for you if you want but it's unlikely I caught any action.

Yeldar - Thanks.

The best thing about wegame is that it seems to preserve the quality that you upload in, and the viewer can download the original if they so wish. Thanks again go to zeeZ for finding wegame.

I haven´t had the time to upload the rest of the races from Semi-final Pool 2 and the Final, But I´ll do that later on if you´re interested - (maybe next week, leaving for a short vacation tomorrow :P).

[Zoth-Ommog]

Very nice! good races, especially in chengou rev. thumbs up.

Anything particular you want to see in it? You can always let me know and I'll have a look for you if you want but it's unlikely I caught any action.

I just used the shortcut on the first lap (of Ubermall reverse) to overtake the whole field. I'm not in the habit of using that one in online races, it was just instinct - if I'd thought about it I wouldn't have done it. So I thought it was cool enough to see a replay of (lol), but it's certainly not worth going to any trouble over.

[AnErare]

SR and JJPAP, I am enjoying your video's a great deal at wegame, but my pc is unable to display them full screen :( The framerate is damn low.. I'm only still at a last generation P4 HT, darn old already :)

Nice work though!

[SaturnReturn]

I'm uploading a few more right now.

AnErare - if it helps you should be able to download the original from wegame. This might play better than streaming and should be almost exactly the same size.

[AnErare]

Ah yes that is the solution, nice :) It takes of bit of patience though.. Viewing all the video's now suddenly appears to involve a lot more time and work :p

[stin]

Eventually after 3hrs uploading!:blarg

Here is my two links for you to watch:pc

1st Nordic Sessions (http://www.wegame.com/watch/Nordic_Sessions_12_02_09_Wipeout_HD/)

A 10 minute-edit of highlights and "lowlights" from the 1st Nordic Sessions.
Featuring chaos80, Soccermums, Zoth-Ommog, Golgofier, drMannevond, CRIZ-87, Mulvad and JJPAP.
Pretty intense and damn good fun! I guess that´s why we all love Wipeout.
Enjoy.

[LOUDandPROUD]

Wow, I loved the slo-mo part towards the end, on Sol 2 Reverse, where you ended up scooting IN BETWEEN the mines while going around a corner...cool stuff!

[Soccermom]

Awesome JJPAP.... I feel your pain :lol

Thanks a lot for hosting that event. Looking forward to next thursday :+

[Constrictor]

That's really great stuff. I like this edited version. Highly appreciated. Looking forward to more of best of HD online.

[TarotCardKiller]

I filmed a TT on SCR using the TRIAKIS (my fav ship). One of my contacts dried while playing and fell out. haha. I filmed it using my small camera phone; it isn't that bad of quality taking in account its ancientness. I'll figure out how to work this "recording directly from the tv" stuff and put some more up.

In the mean time; let me know what you think. =D
I'm going to have to re-upload it after class today.

Fantastic video JJPAP. One of the most entertaining Wipeout videos I’ve ever seen. Love the way you included not just the good bits, but also the bits where things go horribly wrong! There were several places in the video where I couldn't help but laugh, recognising a particular mishap as one which has happened to me on far too many occasions (eg falling off the Chengou bridge, again and again and…..).

[TarotCardKiller]

I re-uploaded it. My dad said he "sort of" raised the quality. Sorry guys; I wanted only the "best" for you. =D Let me know what you think. It might be in processing still.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BBiZBS6h_Nk

[kanar]

wow kigo you should see that, impressive triakis handling here! nice vid TarotCardKiller!

[yeldar2097]

ok people, don't get TOO excited, but i have some news:
guess who has 69 videos to upload!! no i'm not joking...
it might take a while but i'll get them up as soon as i can.
all videos taken afternoon/evening 17th feb 2009 so if you raced me you're probs in one of them.

apologies in advance for the quality, i only had a 1gb stick for my camera so i had to lower the resolution and TRY to put the videos on my laptop before the next race started. got pretty hectic at times. they are perfectly watchable though, i made sure.

i'll keep you posted as far as uploading ''the good, the bad, and the yeldar" is concerned :)
ciao

[Greenix]

ok, I'm excited now! But you never said who does have them ;)

69... What was used more, your analogue stick or the camera record button. Thats certainly dedication to making a wipeout film, never mind a 10 min vid. Which makes me think... I'd love to see a scene like that of the pod racer one from star wars but wipeout style, maybe add 3D glasses and a few well known racers like elhabib in auricom or wellington in feisar and it would be a blockbuster.

Oh and welcome to team Harimau, yeldar. Very few get into the team, or was it only a few are in the team......

Cant wait to see them all :D

[yeldar2097]

more time hastily plugging the camera into the laptop immediately after i'd finished the race, moving the file over (which takes time), then setting the camera up and pressing record just as the next race was starting.
i was dead by the end of it all, never been more knackered in my life...

[OBH]

To try and rekindle the interest in a wipeoutHD woprld Cup I made a little teaser trailer.

After a while i kinda didnt know who races for what team, or indeed whos involved, so i started just guessing :g hope i got most of them right!

http://www.wegame.com/watch/wipeoutHD_World_Cup_2009_Teaser_Trailer/

[pirahpac]

ouch!! very nice work osama!!:clap

[Mateo]

that trailer is really cool :+

[kanar]

awesome teaser, nice quality & great music. You teased me a lot mate. Respect!

[TarotCardKiller]

I enjoyed watching it. I loved the "flying V mines" at :49 (story of my life) =D.

Good Job

[Constrictor]

That's what I call a teaser - didn't hear/read anything on the W'O''WorldCup before. Well mostly beacause I joind only some weeks ago and still practicing. And now I want more ...

But there are so few racers from GY *sic* Anyway, as stated above. I like those compilation trailer teaser vids. Great job! And I think I have to dig through the WorldCup thread to get comfy w/ what's when going on .

[Zoth-Ommog]

Very nice! Very nice indeed!

[H3avyM3tal]

Wow, osama, that was not a teaser, it is the full trailer! Amazing work there :) I should probably resume racing myself!

[Alejess]

Superb trailer mate! Really well put together. Perhaps Studio Liverpool could employ your talents the next time they put together a marketing push for a Wipeout product :)
