Finally working on a short fragvideo

I had an idea recently to find a demo where I hit a ton of rails, and sync it up to some random song. I found a demo where I fired 93 rails (!!!), so I captured the whole thing in MME, opened it in Sony Vegas, and marked each and every rail shot. Then I picked a random song (Foals - Cassius), and started syncing the two up.

After about 20 minutes of work, I realized that I hadn't also cut out the ingame sound when syncing the video with the music, and I knew of no way to get the two matched up, so I decided to have no ingame sound. About 10 minutes later, I realized that that was a horrible idea, so I might start from scratch.

Here's what I have so far:

Borderlands and things

I've been playing borderlands a lot the past 3 or 4 days. I already have almost 30 hours of play time, sadly. I should be beating the game soon, both in co-op and single-player.

lol @ GTX 4850 in my last post. It's an HD 4850. All these model numbers confuse me, because I'm new to this whole computer hardware thing.

New graphics card!

My friend range sent me his old GTX 4850 a few days ago because he got a new PC and was too lazy to send it any earlier (he even got his step-mom to deliver it for him). It just arrived, so I went to the store and bought a molex to 6-pin power adapter for it. I'm back, and my torrents are going crazy (like 5mbps DL LOL!), so I'm delaying my system shutdown for a little bit until they slow down.

Anyway, I'm going to install it, and if all goes well (which it probably won't, because I'm me), I might finally be ready to make a movie! :OOOO

All I've been waiting for was a graphics card so I could capture in MME, because I have no QL content and Wolfcam still doesn't feel right. I might also be able to get a steady 125fps in Quake for the first time EVER! What an occasion! I'll also be able to play relatively modern games without having to turn everything on "ugly as shit" and still barely get 30fps. And I'll have FBO support... and Pixel Shader 2.0 or whatever... XReaL and Q3Bers, HERE I COME!

The thing was dusty as hell, though, and I didn't want to dismantle it to clean it, so I blew at it with some compressed air and it seems a lot better now. What kind of asshole sends a graphics card that's caked with dust? Come on...

Riot are amazing!

I e-mailed Riot Support last night, before bed, requesting a name change. When I first made my account, I was forced to use the name "Kitten Ignition", because the automatic name filter wouldn't allow KittenIgnition (nIg is flagged for somewhat obvious reasons). Today, someone replied to my ticket:

It made my day.

League of Legends

It seems most Quakers eventually end up playing this or HoN (for some reason, I have yet to see a Quaker playing DotA), and it's no different for me.

A good real-life friend of mine started playing, which encouraged me to check if the game worked properly on my computer this time, and it turns out that it does. So I've been playing a lot. I stayed up until 6:30 last night playing, which sucked pretty bad. I've improved markedly though, from my first game against a bunch of bots.

Swain is a baws though. No other champ ain't got shit on Swain. Swain gots swag, ya heard?

----

That said, I've also decided to start playing Quake more than I have been the past few weeks. DeFRaG not so much, but CPMA for sure. I need to get better, because I need content for my stupid movie. I keep getting ideas, and I have more or less all the tools I need, but I don't have the content. I have a handful of crappy, disorganized demos scattered throughout my 800+GB of crappy, disorganized files. I can't wait until I get some nice frags and a proper GPU that can run MME properly, because then I can start making movies! Or, alternatively, I can wait for brugal to add dm_68 support to wolfcam, improve upon wolfcamq3, or for someone else to create a demo converter (I would even help them however I could; it shouldn't be too hard).
