Hmm, not good, especially after a big download. I haven't seen any other reports so assuming the file is okay - what player(s) have you tried? ------------------------------ Rooks and Kings Blog |

Out of sheer curiosity, if you dont mind me asking, What sort of hardware/software did you use in all this?
fake edit: Thanks for the MKV, i never knew so much win could be packed into a file type \0/ |

The full version has the song credits/details. The one you are referring to is the second track from "Slow Riot for New Zero Kanada" by Godspeed You Black Emperor. The actual track is very long; the video only features a short segment. You can hear more of it on youtube.

Hardware was mentioned earlier - essentially overclocked ATI crossfire/ic7 platform. Good SSD drives (X25-E) help a lot too. Software wise, it's recorded in Fraps and put together in Adobe Premiere/AE with associated plugins.

Odd. It might be worth trying Windows Media Player Classic which comes with the CCCP pack. I don't want to recommend you a zillion things to download for what's just an Eve video if everything else is running well :/ ------------------------------ Rooks and Kings Blog |

Maldoror may have stumped himself; it will be almost impossible to top the second video. Still I know he enjoys a challenge.

My question though: Will there be a third?
Thanks for the kind words. As for a third, there probably will be. But each one needs to highlight something tactically different. I could probably make about a half-dozen Pantheon videos to the same standard using existing footage (I started this with 700gb of fraps) though they would essentially be showing the same thing and thus the same narrative, just against different fleets or on different moons.
Triage stuff I have even more of. But again, people rightly want to see something different after very generously indulging so much of their bandwidth. So a third part would have to continue this capital logistics story in the same manner as part two versus part one.
In many ways, the criteria from selecting fights from that hard drive full of them is a) be very outnumbered b) against a high quality 'name' opponent and c) aesthetically able to follow what's going on. A and B are fairly easy to fulfill - it's not hard to get blobbed in Eve and then just make it a champagne blobbing for point B. But the third requirement can be more tricky - the viewer needs to be able to follow what's going on to enjoy it. Whereas Triage gives you a central focal point, Pantheon is more decentralised and so footage needs to be very clear to show the story of the fight.
In the longest fight on the video, I had to remember to fly the ship and FC but also the camera needs to be focussed on the centre of the battle and to look at the action points as they happen (Cynos, capital placement, new things jumping/warping in, friendlies being primed, smartbombing, etc.).
In some ways that can be tricky - however, I don't think it's necessarily detrimental. There is a lot of information to be gleaned whilst tracking the aesthetic stuff. You can see who is neuting, you can see which way drone and fighters swarms are headed, who is smartbombing, who is in triage, who is siege and a million otherthings. So running a fight that follows these things is not necessarily at odds with recording it. Maybe in the future it would be, if aesthetic effects become divorced from any in-game purpose, e.g.overbright HDR 'glare' in FPS games which you certainly wouldn't want in a ladder match
Once that's taken into account it reduces the number of usable recordings, though even then I could still make several vids like this from existing footage, not to mention upcoming stuff. That might go into some archive for internal use. But a third chapter would aim to mix things up again.
It's like Hannibal says when he's feeding morsels of fried brain to the unsuspecting kid on the plane: it's always important to try new things. ------------------------------ Rooks and Kings Blog |

After you've made a few vids, the a,b,c you describe is the holy grail of a decent big gang video. Even when you get a and b, you may be lagged out so you have to fully zoom out and have no brackets, so it looks like rubbish.
I'm in the same boat atm, I have a ton of fraps, but hard to make an entertaining timeline out of it.
I'm a big fan of both Clarion Call vids, the effort you put into it is appreciated, and makes them worth watching many times over. Hope you keep the standard up for the next one.

Let me start by saying that I too am really impressed by this video. So impressed I went and looked up the clarion call part 1 video and stumbled across an old foundation video called exodus. All of them are entertaining and they really do get better with each new edition.
All of this got me thinking about some capital theory crafting, EFT, etc. So I googled the R&K killboard and tried to figure out exaclty how you fit these things. As impressive as your videos are, your personal, corporate or alliance finacial structure must be even more impressive. Lately Alazais has been losing carriers on a bi-weekly basis. I would LOVE to know how you can afford to do that!
I really do not mean any of this as a 'troll', clearly you're doing some things right!

Well, it's easy: in nearly a year, I've lost 6 triage Archons so far in Rooks and Kings. Keep in mind that I'm in a fight with it pretty much every other day (it doesn't aggro, so only on kb if I die). Also, remember that sometimes it may die in a winning cause and the capital k/d ratio is extreme enough that there's an endless supply of cap mods for it, to rebuild it with.
In terms of how those six were lost, interestingly the main danger seems to be the times one jumps to assist blues without ganglinks for bonuses, specialised fleet roles, etc. to try and keep them up and escalate a fight while scrambling alliance pilots to log in. I guess if I stated losing too many I'd probably do less of that and stick to focussed ops. But it's a lot of fun when it works, to get a phone call in the middle of the night and jump blind and help: it's a thrill and a sort of karma partner for the merticulously planned stuff.
A triage pilot does need to know that the role of his ship is such that he could blow up even in a winning cause - although in terms of capital k/d the triage Archon has an incredible survival rate, if you attend to all the details.
Of course, the issue of having a triage dread blobbed is part of the narrative of the video: that's where Pantheon comes in.
So that you know what you get is authentic, I should point out that the footage comes from a summer campaign of a dozen or more capital fights, mostly heavily outnumbered and the only (necessary) capital casuality using these tactics is included on the video.
As for Pantheon, to date of post, we've not lost a Pantheon fleet at all yet, though recent capital changes (including titan super weapons) present new hazards for unwanted exploding. That good run will also likely end tonight if I log on in the early hours after New Year's drinking and Fc ;)

Edited by: Anubis Einstein on 31/12/2009 21:05:25 Also i'd like to point out that having a cluster of suicidal triage pilots on the batphone is a big money saver overall. Often carrier losses are the result of a concious exit strategy to minimize cost - so using them as a measure of loss can be a bit deceptive.
An insured triage is certainly cheaper than 10-15 properly fit battleships...

o/ anubis :)
an insured triage probibly only cost you 4-500m i would guess? if that?
fully fit t2 with rigs, bs's can run 200m counting insurance payouts (+70m)? so really, a triage carrier kill is only worth 3-4 good battleships.
of course, knowing LM, I wouldnt be surprised if he faction-fit his suicide ships still
