As do I. If you want to try to make the record, high booster is best, but tricky, as I had to permanently slow down and stop at some points to manage air to make the record. Now that I realized its full potential. Here's a tip: the power shortcut's three cars on each side can raise you to max or near max if you hit at least five of them. Just try to manage your air. Though I also did it with the heavy bike as well... but that won't make any records anymore on that course... Either way, power's your best bet.

:o?
Can no one here make vids? Am I the highest ranked player in Riders who can make vids?
I would love to help, but seeing as I'm not in the Top 5 anymore, and because I haven't gotten sub-2:00 in Metal City (yet), I guess I can't. Sorry! ^_^
*goes off to play Riders for the first time in over a month*
EDIT: Wow, using the High Booster is difficult. D: Still, I managed 1'48"75. On video. Yeah. =D

I could, but the vid submissions system just had the size limit reinstated. All I can do is point a camera at a TV, and once I scale the quality down to force it through submissions... ewww. Does Rolken still allow vids to be sent to him via e-mail, or did that stop after the size limit was temporarily removed?

Nope, he still takes submissions directly to him. Email or IRC is all good.

I'm not in the top 5, but I have a video of one of my top 10 times. Check my Races stats.

No access to a digital camera. Sorry. By the way, when did the size limit change, and how do you scale one down?

Dunno, but now you got videos up. But... the quality kinda sucks.

I am fully aware of that but it's better than nothing, eh? Besides, I'm savin' up for a new Camera anyways so by then, I should be able to make better ones. :D

Okay. I would upload my Riders vid I have, but not only am I not authorized to upload videos, but it's over the upload limit.
Title: Re: Riders Vids?
Post by: douglas on May 28, 2006, 04:06:55 pm
You realise all you need to do to get authorised is email Rolken? The authorisation exists to stop randoms uploading porn, not to keep out certain people's vids.
Title: Re: Riders Vids?
Post by: Groudon on May 29, 2006, 01:45:33 pm
But I'm pretty sure there is a limit to video size.

From what I know, there's no specific limit, just what's within the realms of sensibility.
For reference, my Rush vids are, with one exception, in the 7-9MB range, which I got the impression was considered fine seeing how I could only film them in a very awkward manner (screencapped vids will be smaller). Otherwise they would probably have been thought rather large. My Dead Line vid is 14MB, which is a bit big, but I hadn't quite figured out the camera I was using at that time.

I am now awaiting authorization.

Guess what, everyone? I got the camera! I'm currently making Heroes videos but I've recently started doing a couple for Riders. The quality is an improvement from my previous videos, no doubt. I'll be submitting them soon. Keep an eye out for them.
Edit: The files are quite big and in mov format so I converted them to AVI but they're still like 16-20 Megs. Can anyone help me? I asked aorund but no one has helped me that much with exception of one or two people. And it has to be max 2 MB too, right?
