Any ideas on why they had to crop out the game windowed on his desktop instead of him just full screening it?

I'm confused on why that had to be so difficult.

Is that actually easier? I'd imagine it's easier to work with sizes that are absolute. Does their stream compositioning software just take arbitrary video input and resize it on the fly?

 

[Mister Negative]

Edit; Woops, wrong thread!

 

[Ferrio]

Using Fallout 3 to explain turn based combat...

It's a valid explanation since Transitor doesn't really use traditional turn based combat.

Not sure, but the past GDQs had loads of issues in the past with PC games. So maybe it's some sort of safeguard to cause everything from imploding, lol.

 

[LeonSPBR]

Nice. They are already posting the runs on youtube. Only TASbot isn't up yet.

 

[bon]

Is the game supposed to be silent?

 

[Revven]

Is the game supposed to be silent?

No, it's a technical issue. They're looking into it.

 

[Omnicent]

didn't even notice no game audio, since im listining to vulajin

 

[Ferrio]

Song so beautiful.

Welcome to AGDQ's tooth-pulling curse with PC games.

The runner prefers to play windowed for some reason so they worked around it. Apparently he also likes to play without sound which is making this difficult to watch.

 

[antibolo]

Kinda wondering why they're not simply using the PS4 version.

EDIT ok he's not playing with a controller so it wouldn't make sense

 

[Portugeezer]

Still better audio than The Game Awards.

He explained why he plays windowed (so when the camera fails to keep up he can still keep moving off screen without the cursor getting caught on the edge of the window) and the lack of sound is a technical issue.

 

[Y2Kev]

Lol the song was so beautiful~

 

[stump sock]

liek if u cry evrytiem

 

[Revven]

Because the runner plays on PC.

 

[Proxy]

True enough. I guess I was misremembering how Transistor played.

 

[Shining Sunshine]

Finally a game worth speed running. Transistor takes a lot of skill and strategy, opened to speedrunning decisions.

 

[jediyoshi]

transistor ost goat

 

[ratcliffja]

This chat is awful. Can anybody invite jrat12345 to the GAF chat?

Edit: Thanks.

 

[Xerotwo]

Jesus, the chat right now

Yeah, they can be quite a nuisance to look at when there is a good game being played now.

 

[Lilo_D]

Transistor is so fun to play by yourself but kind of boring to watch another people play

 

[Finalow]

what was the mistery game?

 

[Diablohead]

what was the mistery game?

smb1 in smw by tasbot

 

[nonnocere]

Jesus, the chat right now

There's a chat?

 

[Nanashrew]

Don't forget if you have a Twitch account you can join the GAF group chat. And anyone in chat has the power to add someone here.

 

[Gentleman Jack]

Mmm I don't have a lot of interest in the remaining runs until tomorrow morning. The F-Zero block should be amazin.

Anarchy reigns.

F-Zero was one of the most impressive runs of last year if i remember correctly, right?

 

[Sub_Level]

I'm gonna watch the Tomb Raider Anniversary run.

The classic PS1 Tomb Raiders were more challenging but the time trials in the Crystal Dynamics games could be fun. Should make for a fun watch.

 

[cerulily]

Anything worth watching so far?

Mario Kart Wii, you won't regret it!

 

[Nose Master]

Mario Kart Wii, you won't regret it!

This guy knows.

 

[JBourne]

I didn't realize how broken Anniversary was. Now I'm pumped.

 

[antibolo]

I love me some broken games to speedrun

 

[Hanzou]

Why is this stream completely garbage for me? Stops to buffer every 10 seconds.

 

[Wallach]

having named for tricks is kinda dumb
...

i call this trick zipping

 

[Blizzard]

Ack, I didn't realize this started this early in the year! Thanks for making the thread about it. I remember completely destroying my sleep schedule, probably last year, when it happened. >_>

 

[Gentle Rodriguez]

How is naming tricks dumb anyway? How else are you supposed to refer to said tricks?

 

[Blizzard]

Both of the VLC links in the OP don't work -- 404'd. Are there updated links and if so can we put them there?

 

[antibolo]

Telepathy, obviously.

 

[Revven]

lmao this game is so broken, this is Sonic Boom levels of broken (as in it's an air walk you use to clip through everything and skip 90% of the game).

 

[Xeteh]

I had a chuckle at that part too.

 

[Weetrick]

Catching up on the runs I missed - I'm not sure I will ever understand the TAS run scene.

 

[CrazedProfessional]

No wonder Tomb Raider got a reboot.

 

[Xeteh]

The stuff they show off is mostly just for shits and giggles but normally TAS is used to see how fast certain routes can be run and if certain tricks are even possible to pull off.

 

[Gentle Rodriguez]

Mario Kart Wii, you won't regret it!

Yeah it seems awful at first but keep watching! It gets good about 39 minutes and 56 seconds in.

 

[RagnarokX]

He failed because he called the lions cheetahs.

No wonder Tomb Raider got a reboot.

It had too much gameplay?

 

[Omnicent]

just tuned back in for Tomb Raider and dude was back flipping in the air across a chasm.... wtf
