x264 is strictly better than Xvid in terms of bitrate:quality ratio, with the tradeoff being longer encoding times.

Alright, it's uploaded. Still processing right now though. The music might be too loud in certain parts. Also, I screwed up Destil's boss icons during megaman 3 and 6, but when I tried to fix it with avisynth, the resulting video had a ton of weird laggy stuttering and desync issues, so I just bit the bullet and kept the mistake. Kinda sucks, but I really don't want to go back and fix these things. Processing takes up too much time.

Looks like you are getting credit for Destil's kills on MM1, too.

Once the video's done processing, just throw in a self-deprecating annotation. That's what I do!

That's funny, because Magnet, Drill, and Plantman are my greatest shames.

Top Man kind of made a monkey out of you too. Ha ha!

narcodis, you should put a credit in the description for the rock music that starts up after you run out of MM6 songs. Is that an OCRemix?

I kinda tried to rush through top man which is why I didn't really dodge him much, but he's not my shame. The three I mentioned above are my shames.

Damn top spin running out with Shadow Man still standing (well, jumping). I was doing so well up until there (Ice Man stage aside, because Mega Man 1).

Yeah, a lot of people that put music up don't mind it being used if they are credited.

The latest issue of Nintendo Force featured concepts for dream NES HD remakes ala DuckTales Remastered. Here's my girlfriend Karen's entry:



Why am I posting it here? It's dedicated to Brickroad.

So rogue, was there anything to be done about the sound on your Yoshi footage? I know you said there were a few things you wanted to try. If there's not, well, at least we have the video. I can give you a Pac-Man ghost.

Sorry, haven't had much of a chance to work on it. I'm going to try by the end of the week but this weekend is going to be busy for me.

I've been thinking it might be fun to do a Mario All-Stars Warping Race. Debating whether or not to include The Lost Levels or just make a quick blitz through the first three games. I can't remember anything about warping in TLL.

I am possibly available. I've got some stuff to do this evening that I'm not sure how long it'll take, but I'll probably be done by at least 9:30pm (Central Time).

I can do a SML2 Race! It will be a nice change of pace from fixing broken stuff. XD

Also, a new All-Stars Race might be a good idea, cause this one is kinda ehh... and the ending is hard to fix. XD

Agh, ok so the thing I was going to try with my video didn't work. It's still silent and I can't even hear the background voice that I used to hear. So Brick, go ahead and make the video and do whatever you were going to do with my video. Sorry I couldn't get it to work and I have no idea why my mic didn't pick up my voice. Hopefully for future races, now that I have a new computer and an actual headset this won't be a problem.

No problem. I'll try and tuck into the Yoshi race this week and get it up by next weekend.

So yeah, who is doing the footage for the Mario Land 2 race? Because I have mine on youtube but it was being weird yesterday.

Also, remember when I was telling you guys (in the race) about my air conditioning breaking and it becoming super hot in my house so I couldn't render or game, and we joked about me breaking after the house finishes breaking.

Funny thing that, I fell down my staircase yesterday and tore my MCL (along with various other injuries.) So yeah... I'm gonna stop talking about future things on the internet. XD

I got Mario Land 2 guys. After Sonic 3. Which is really happening I promise. I'm processing a cut of it right now. The threat of a backlog is proving to be a substantial motivator.

Mario Land 2 was heaps of fun by the way guys, even if I think the game is kind of balls.
