Hi guys, thought you might be interested, soon as I got to the surface area, I decided to start attempting to leap to places your not mean to get to, well, this map is the result.


As you can see, the white area is the area I've explored, and you can see me up in the air there too. So, I managed to leap rather high, I'll be uploading a video later for you non believers. Does anyone know a method to compress a video file other then windows video maker or whatever it's called?

EDIT: Both video's now uploaded

haha, very awsome :P but you'll know for sure soon as I get this vid uploaded <_<

trouble is windows movie maker aint working, and I took the vid using fraps, and this virtualdub program says "asf file not supported" when I try to load the vid file :S.

The uncompressed version is 30mb for like 10 seconds

Fraps should capture to AVI, right?

Take the AVI into VirtualDub?

Also w/ virtual dub you'd probably need the XVid and Lame MP3 codecs.

haha nevermind I did get it to work, quality didn't come out too well but it compressed nicely and you can easily tell whats going on. I'll be uploading now, I have 2 videos first is 2mb second is around 4mb so they'll be up soon as I find a host and such.

EDIT: Will be ready in 2mins :P

EDIT AGAIN: my god, I just finished uploading it, and then the site goes and says something along the lines of "sorry can't host your file as your not registered!" Wouldn't it have been easier and simpler to tell me I'm not registered and it won't actually host my file BEFORE wasting my time and uploading it <_<

and now I've finished registering and it goes and tells me I can't acctually upload anything till next week, wtf is wrong with this host! *finds another host*

Use www.willhostforfood.com free upload until 100MB, no registering, no ads, just works :)

Can't you just use the Tube?

thanks for the link, already ended up using rapidshare though :) And hadn't thought of youtube really... never used it before.

Anyway, I've modified original post with download link, uploading second file now, I haven't actually shown how I did it, just the actual fall, if anyone wants me to spoil the speculation and fun I suppose I can upload another video showing how to pull it off :P

whff is much better than rapdshare, because you have no waiting time and don't have to type in some weird code. ;)

lol! now wouldn't that spoil the fun? :P

I'll stick a vid up on youtube showing how if you guys want, but fraps only allows 30 seconds, does anyone know any other software to record vids?

You can try this one. It may really drop the FPS, though, I never really used it for games.
