Are you going to do all of them, or just a few?

[Dawnlight]

I hope I could do all of them. That's the plan.

[HylianGlaceon]

If it helps, you may want to do mine last, as the demo is pretty long. I've easily gone over 10 hours for a play through, and that's with knowing where everything is..

[trudatman]

neat. I plan to watch them all!

my demo is short. it should take as little as fifteen minutes or as much as an hour.

I just watched the first part, but I was wondering. For future videos, would it possible to do anything about the voice/video desynch? It's kind of weird and disorienting, especially towards the end, when the triforce jingle started playing (through the mic, I'm guessing) before you even entered the room.

Other than that though, nice LP so far. I do want to point out though that the target that you shoot to light the torches isn't a script. It's a custom enemy whose attributes Dan set very creatively.

[Dawnlight]

Yeah looks like BB Flashback Express's voice capture is pretty crappy. I'll try using Audacity next time like I do for my other LP's.

Hey Dawnlight, when you LP OoA make sure you download the one from the expo. I know I released it to you guys, but there were a couple of fixes in the demo currently in the expo thread. Thanks!

[Dawnlight]

UPDATE:

Oracle of Awakening Demo is up. I think I fixed the voice sync problem Russ addressed. But I still need to find out how to get rid of that background noise on my mic.

LP #2: Oracle of Awakening
Part 1 - Introduction to Moblin's Keep

Part 2 will be up shortly. Check my YouTube page later. It's uploading as we speak.



Now what demo should I play next.

I'm probably biased, but I think that you might as well do mine because it is short. no matter which you do, thanks for putting your time and effort into this. I particularly appreciate it because I cannot currently play the 2.x quests until we get another laptop charger. also, your voice is quite different from what I had in my mind. keep 'em coming!

Part 2 for Oracle of Awakening is now up with my final thoughts about the demo.

Part 2 - Moblin's Keep


trudatman's Demo will be the next item on my list for LPs.

Dawnlight, about the difficulty, I am sorry. I am terrible at telling if something is too hard or not. I went through those Darknuts with no problem, but that may be cause of different play styles. Also, you found a bug in the bridge that I'm not sure what happened to cause. It was solid when I played it, but it looks to me like it's letting you walk right off of it. And for the switches, I'll change them by making some custom drawn switches. I'll fix everything you mentioned. The story is a bit bare because of lack of time before the expo, but I wanted to make sure that there was a playable demo for the expo. I am glad to have PureZC to help me improve.

[Dawnlight]

UPDATE: trudatman's quest is VERY hard. I'm having a very hard time LPing this quest. I'm very sorry dude. Unless, if you want me to show parts of the demo but not give a rating on it, I don't think I will make my way through.

So, I will put that quest on hold and make my next upcoming LP "The Eight Objects" by Saffith.

[trudatman]

really? what part is so hard? it's kind of an old-school learner, not a typical custom quest gauntlet romp, so I could see it being a bit frustrating, but, after watching your other videos, I know you can do it. I guess my quest must be tough, but I also suspect nobody is willing to try a tough part more than twice. if you shot some video of your failures, I'd still like to see them. I feel like the kids that grew up with the NES and didn't wait for Nintendo Power to explain everything to them will be able to handle this quest. Zeldaman23 managed to explore the last version and I haven't made it any harder...



...and he only died three times. I'm hoping you'll try again.

Hang on, are you still using BB Flashback Express on these? I use the same program, and had the same audio sync-ing problem. However, I messed with the settings and figured out how to fix it. If you're still having issues with it but are still interested in using it, let me know. I'll tell you what settings I have on. (I'd just post it here, but I don't know what settings do what, so I'd have to post absolutely everything on the list.)
