RE: Let's play - Amnesia! [Somewhat Blind]

Use VirtualDub for encoding the vids. Fraps doesn't encode them (which is why Fraps videos are HUGE), and Virtual Dub can decrease the file size significantly while preserving most of the quality.

It can preserve all of the quality, depending on the codec you choose.

RE: Let's play - Amnesia! [Somewhat Blind]

you want to use the H.264 codec, best quality, Best compression, and also an industry standard, not some 3rd party cheap attempt

Thank you so much for the links! Im actually working on the map at this very moment, So far I think ive got the entire basic idea planned out!

The story will be called: The Dark Ones,

Plot: You play the protagonist (obv) and you live on the outskirts of a small village (This is the Victorian Era) and Your family is very rich and of high status, you and your older father live in your family's mansion deep in the forest, recently, rumors and panic have been whispering about the town about missing persons have been going around, but you dismiss it as just a bogus story and continue on in your life.
So weeks later one morning (While your father is out on buisness) you walk around the mansion and into your servants quarters and find a tatty old diary and the room messy and deserted, The diaries latest entry goes on about how the servant needed to get away before something happened to him, and that he had seen too much, So your character, bewildered, begins searching his mansion for answers..

((This is not the nearly the full plot, I purposley am leaving things out as to not ruin the story :3))

Chuckles.... lmao. Theres so many funny names for these monsters Big Grin

Also, your story idea sounds good it sounds like a exploring, puzzle type level, with scares of course. I'm almost done with mine and hope to have it up in the next week Smile
