PSOBB: The new, revamped music video

[RubyEclipse]

As promised. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif Thank you all for the feedback, and I hope you guys enjoy this one much more than the old - the shots have been improved, bosses have been added and - well, you'll see for yourself I guess. The old video thread can be locked if need be, though these two videos are entirely different (sans music).

Enjoy!

I like it. The only thing I could wish for is that you had a different camera view. See, you can do this if you have a mouse with a rolling ball (for page scrolling.) I think if you had some close up shots of the monsters and some scenery shots, it would be just that little bit better.

Either way well done. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

Ah, it's even better now. Good choice of scenes, and the music continues to work well.

Very cool! really makes me wanna play PSOBB again.. to bad I canceled my acount in november >_> I hate having no creditcard.

Do you have a better quality version? I really would like to show this to all those WoW fanboys @ school. You really should try H264 compression.

If you don't mind, I can host the video on my domain, still got plenty bandwidth this month.

Hey, that would be great, thanks! http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif

Also, I've found out today some good news and some bad news:

The bad news is, I can't get the quality on that video any higher than it is right now without making the file size waaay too big.

The good news is, I've found another way (still with fraps) to get better quality on any new shots while keeping the file sizes roughly the same.

So, I've decided to redo the entire thing (going to try to keep all boss shots the same, just insert the higher res counterparts) in the higher quality - as they say, fourth time's the charm. There won't be need for a new thread this time, so I'll just post here and edit the title whenever I get it finished. If I'm lucky, this should only take a day or two to finish, and I hope the higher quality will make it well worth the difference when you show it to your friends. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif

Best wishes guys,

I guess you never seen H264 before? H264 is the latest compression method that can create very small files with very good quality.
example: an XviD anime episode is around 200~230 MB and the H264 version is only 150MB and looking even better. Just give it a try.

here is the download link for the video:

Could you PM me with details regarding that? I'm very interested, as it sounds like a great option for future videos.

As well, thanks a ton for hosting! I've linked it from the original PSO:BB forums thread, so it should get a few downloads now - the link to that can be found here:http://boards.sega.com/psobb/viewtopic.php?p=692880#692880

Thanks again, and I'll keep you all updated as I work on the new higher res video.

alright, I PM'd you the details. and no problem about the hosting, I usualy don't even use 1% of the 10GB bandwidth I can use every month and I always hate those free download sites.
