Videos are around 6-8 GB before encoding and around 300+MB after.

What's this supposed to mean?

Probably means the difference between the recorded footage vs. the footage converted into a higher compression before uploading. HiCompression means high CPU-usage so you record at low compression to get more fps.

And then compress when you've got the game turned off.

would anyone object if a started a competition essentially the same only on a smaller scale? I would help out with the running of matches here but the processing power required is out of my league.

I wouldn't object, but a third competition to XFF and the Rumble Pit? What do you have in mind?

EmperorJon · Post by **EmperorJon** » Thu, 9. Sep 10, 14:18

Rumble Pit is still looking for a video person by the way.

But anyway, XFF has priority...

I was thinking of another competition too, but nothing to do with XFF so completely OT.

You can't leave it there!

Well you can, but you won't... Will you?

It involved some riddles and anything in the X universe.

Could be anything. Sector. Station. Ship. Person...

And you have to work out what the riddle means.

Aaahhh... anything, you say? OK then, I'm in.
However, if you want to know why Gavrushka's head has exploded twice earlier this year, and perchance want to experience the same thrill, check this monstrosity out, then dare and propose a similar outrageous think... thing

So - be gentle...

I've already bought a ticket to God only knows where and I ain't never coming back, I simply can't go on buying new hats due to exploded head debris, which is notoriously difficult to wash out.

EmperorJon · Post by **EmperorJon** » Thu, 9. Sep 10, 15:09

Something similar but not as... Gah.

I'll post it later.

For now, hijack over.

I've sort of lost interest in XFF for now, because nothing's happening. Oh, and I know I'm going to lose the next match.

Basicly the same as XFF on a smaller scale and structured in a way that the matches can be quickly run and results posted I think I could run a match a day atleast but I'm limited by processing power so the credit cap will be lower than XFF and I think I could add in a Sports Type Intro. but I'm thinking of creating a series of mini category's like an 8 on 8 fighter battles or something like than along with the large fleet matches (but smaller than XFF) to add a bit of spice

Sounds pretty much like the Rumble Pit to me - well, just be careful or you end up with 8 Solanos vs. 8 Solanos

actually i ran a test with eclipses and Solanos, 8 on 8 eclipses managed to beat Solanos tho could be because I armed the eclipses with PRG's

That's because the Eclipse is an M3+ and the Solano an M3- (face the facts guys) - if you want to set that battles via credit cap you might get in trouble. However, this might be better discussed in its own thread.

lol the credit values were pretty much the same filled Solano's with missiles to make up the difference but you're right i'll start a thread when i get some ground rules sorted (and a name for it)

X-Verse Wing Fest? Wing Wars? Dog-fights, no Vick.

Seriously? Another competition?

I guess I should hurry up with the videos or XFF will be forgotten
