Closer (to the Optimal Setup) - Last Test

[egyokeo]

@alex112298 back then I used Ulead Media Studio 8. I had a capture of the game screen, then used "mattes" to mask out all the rest of the screen and just leave the pieces I wanted, and moved them around on the screen next to the drum pads.

[germandude3]

How do you get that drumset?

[djtheextremegamerpro]

nice job

[GamerzBoyMike]

how can we get that

[spjcjwes]

fantasticly played just from my opinion i like the second view more =)

[KillswitchAbusers]

Or If you dont want to do TTFAF maybe can you do Jordan?

[egyokeo]

yeah, no problem, ttfaf is my list.  jordan... still can't pass the solos on the drums :(

[KillswitchAbusers]

You might not like this but,Could you do Through The Fire and The Flames with your new camera set up would love to see the drum pad hitting with a closer view.

[MetallicMikey]

how do you make it show the bar where the notes are on the video like that and what program did u use?

[egyokeo]

using a "matte" in the editing program. i just started using Ulead MediaStudio Pro 8.

[Enz0man]

Was the drum pad hard when you first started to use it?

[egyokeo]

yeah, it took a month or two before just knowing where the notes were on the pads became intuitive to me.

[youcandothemumbo]

egyokeo! Guess what? Do you know that 1 spanish guitar hero nline game? Well, i can play it with rock band drums on my computer =p.

Your not the only one who can play guitar hero on drums!

[ueberRegenbogen]

Well developing the accessory wouldn't be a very good investment, if only one person in the world used it. LMAO!

[XxCisnerosxX]

Birds Eye!!!!

[pye3214]

Goats eye view and message in a bottle please!

[Vatsug90]

I pref go's eye, looks much nicer

[Driminem]

Oh yeah, you will probably be able to dominate some GH4 or Rock band tourneys if they become big.

[Thatdumakid]

Yes, i agree

Goat eye's > Bird eye's

[Lloyd1337]

I like the new camera angles. Some suggestions:

If you're going to switch angles in the middle of the video, could you perhaps fade between them or something so I don't have a heart attack? Or at least, do something more smooth. It's kinda... annoying having to adjust when it changes so fast.

Also, perhaps you could redo TTFAF with this new angle? Personally I think that'd be neat.

And did you get this working with RB yet? You should post some videos of that.

[egyokeo]

Lloyd1337, yeah, if i ever do multi-angle again, i'll fade. for this one, i just wanted to get both views into one vid and it was getting late so i uploaded the heart attack version. you're the 4th person to re-request TTFAF with the new angle, and i think that's more people to request that than anything, so yeah, i'll probably attempt that again. RB, i'm hoping soon, like within a couple weeks. XIM2 is almost in Beta and that's what i've been waiting for.

[gigax571]

I love the fact you can see the lines between the pads in this one. You should let all our videos have a few frames of just you at the start. =3

Also, I prefer Goat's Eye as well. But, again, Bird's Eye would be fine if the drumset wasn't in a tilted view. (Maybe the camera directly above your head?)

[egyokeo]

HEY EVERYBODY! So far, most people prefer goat's eye view best. I think a farther away version of that will get all the benefits of the bird's eye view so i'm gonna try that next.

[uberwater]

Goats eye view all the way ;D

[cwhitney2]

birds eye all the way

[koolhawk26]

low left

[RockBandHero101]

ohhhhhhhh is that what it is????

a weight scale??? woah i though it was just like some cool box lol

[Fghwads]

the second view he showed was the best

[Ncstatefanman]

I liked the "goats eye" view a little better...but they're both good.

[brocgustafson]

i like this view. the rest of them all sucked. no offense

[daboyakasha101]

brids eye

[KalebLee2]

wow,i actually read the description unlike most of you idiots,he just used the first video he fced it 2 times and used the first one as the video!lol!

[Standardtime09]

goats eye it just flows more and you can still see your hand

[thok78]

how do u get the ones with 3 notes?

[sonicpotter2000]

I liked the left view.

[demonbomb102]

Man, I don't know which angle I like better. They're both winners I think!

[Driminem]

Have you ever tried to bring your setup to a guitar hero tournament or is it too hard/impossible to bring it?

I think you could win some local tourneys if it wasn't too much work to bring the setup and if you don't have to bring your computer and everything. Maybe even if you just brought a lap top.

I am sure you would get a lot of recognition for dominating on the drums at GH.

[egyokeo]

Driminem, no never entered any tourneys. I kinda think they wouldn't let me in since this is not a supported controller.

[Driminem]

That's probably true. Oh well, guitar hero tourneys aren't that big right now other than WCG.

[Dreadlord67]

I'm a hardcore fan! Lol. Anyways, I like that sharpie touch in this video..it makes things more clear. I think your idea of a farther back "goat eye" view would be the best. I rofled when I read that goat eye thing. I liked it, though. Nice video!

[rocketman0000000]

I like the first view better, but put the star power meter closer to the score meter

[RiouInsuiko]

Definitly the best so far, i like it.

[upward23]

i like the first veiw u did

[GuitarHeroJunky]

i personally prefer the bird's eye because it's easier to see everything you do, i also like the fact that you marked out the drum pads, that was an improvement. i think the star power reserve is useless, i would prefer the rock meter instead. great videos, thanks for taking time to make it work for everyone!

[chickenweezer]

u messed up sp

[TheProven]

the note chart on the bottom of the screen and goat's eye view makes it easier to watch. lol nice. much better than ur other vids.

[KrazyKriis]

goat!!!

[AMD889]

with the star power bar in the video you should have just added the whole rock meter to

[Z4ckK10]

i like this alot more than ur other videos birds eye ftw

[asdfz0mg]

I like goat's eye view (lol) the best. Continue using that in ur upcoming vids :)

[jfowler88]

i like the goat's eye better

[Insanelivekop]

kool but i like the birds i view

[mstwntd69]

i like it on the left has a better close up on the drums and looks cleaner on the notechart. When it switched i was like OMG

H4X onoez

[freebones12321]

like the camera angles, as for the high quality option.. im not seeing it =( dont think you really need it it looks good as it is

[TheCityOfKingsALC]

goat'seye view, first off, the star power meter and multiplier and score are all in the same area, makes it much easier to see. secondly...well, rock on!

[n8isthecoolest]

goats eye

[nascarfan02]

nice fc!

[frazzleberry]

How do you up the bitrate?

[egyokeo]

frazzleberry, I "up the bitrate" when I compress my final video after I edit it. I use DivX codec to compress/encode it, and from there you can set the bitrate to anything you want.

[galen367]

i like the fretboard on the r9ight side.

[OMGItsMeels]

Yeah, 0:43 and 2:33.

Or, goat's eye(?).

[kingeli911]

Nice man, I like the fretboard to the right- but that's just my opinion.

Oh, and OMGWTFBBQ thankyou SO much for accepting my friend request (elitheking)

You rock on the drums. ;)

[S3bz3r0]

prefer the bird view by far :)

[timma1083]

I Like Goat's Eye View best

[nachoseller99]

birds eye view because it looks better.

If i read the entire video description does that mean i'm a "hard core fans/friends"?

[nl45t3ll4]

i think the goats eye view is better.. but can you get back to me on what kind of editor you use?

[iamjamielincoln]

goats eye view

[theguitarhero94]

i like the view that you change to at 2:33

[monkeylane99]

i like the goats eye view over the birds

[patrickcc112]

also, I have to ask a suggestion. I think it would be very cool to see colors on your drum kit. Like yellow where the you hit the yellow note, and blue where you hit blue, etc.

[egyokeo]

patrickcc112, yeah, colored pads would be cool, but i'd have to have a way to change them when i use it for rock band drums.

[cjpboy18]

this a fun fc on guitar

[patrickcc112]

yeah, i'd say goats eye.

[XhounderX]

How about a flying Goats eye view :D

Nah

maybe a right above the drums if its possible, and have the note chart on the left/right like it is now.

Just an idea.

[Zamler1]

the set up at like 2:50 i like

[buyacanary]

the goat's eye view is definitely the winner in my book. but either way you go, these videos are starting to look fantastic. keep up the good work!

[numcaps2]

nice dude that rocked!

[andreigiant]

i think goat is better, and i hav a slight

question: how come there are 6 bottom pads?

in other words, which pad is which fret?

[egyokeo]

the bottom center two pads are both mapped to yellow, that way i have some flexibility with which hand to use when a Y comes along.

[egyokeo]

Thanks a lot for all the feedback everybody! Sounds like most of you like the goat's eye view. I do too, but I think it's zoomed in too far. Going to try goat's eye but zoomed out a little next time. Another thing: argggh, I thought I had the "high quality" thing figured out but it's not working on this vid! annoying... anyway, thanks again!

[Holzy09]

i thnk just try the farther goats eye cuz it looks nice. and i read all the way and i don't think ur cheating us

[sevendollars70]

WELCOME TO THE JUNGEL!!!!!

[JonyBoyHache]

goats eye

[pye3214]

Goats eye view

[gobucksgo21]

goats eye is better looking imo

[projectsabre]

second view is probably the best view, and it looks good with the SP meter at the top

[SNiPeR8246]

I like the second point of view (goat's eye view), it is a lot comftable to look at than the first one (bird's eye view).

[AsianHomie54]

i like birds i eye view but a farther away goats eye would be nice :D

[oOscaryvideosOo]

i like the second veiw.

[Calumef]

"Goats eye view" looks cleaner so Id go with that one.

[LegendOfAndrew]

I'd say the second view which started at 0:46

[KazStar23]

i reckon the birds eye veiw is better for rock band in my opinion, like you can put the rock meter on the left, score on the top left corner and the notechart and od meter are together so you can enlarge it more and put it on the right hand side :D but thats my opinion so you can do what ever you like.

[Mushy2000]

lol I loved that book you wrote for the description... :-) I completely agree with you btw the goat view looks cleaner/nicer... but I like seeing what your hands are doing... tough choice... or maybe use the birds eye view and and put the score and star power on the top right middleish and move the fretboard down and crop out your foot and put it where the star power is... idk... watever u think is best... I think once you actually try it with rock band it will be easier since evrythg smaller

[yur0wnstupidity]

i like the first view, but i think the best would be the second but mirrored, like azureite does, you on the left, chart on the right

[yur0wnstupidity]

WOW for some reason this was the only vid i didnt read the descrition on, sory for being stupid, #3

[yur0wnstupidity]

OMFG TYPO #1111111 <-1111111

[Teh48Finn]

the second one s the best

[monkyskin]

definitely like the second view better

[MabusPwns]

I like the second one the most.
