[JohnKulo]

[hogehoge335]

Thanks for all your comments. Happy New Year!

[MrShenron17]

@hogehoge335 how do you get it on kinect though?

[hogehoge335]

@MrShenron17 Actually you can connect Kinect to PC by USB and run your own program on it.

[puryteevee]

[DAANTAELON]

the sayayin hair moves backwards when he do the kamehameha lol, really impressive, even a little aura, you need to make the aura far bigger and to make it move like steam

[FamousFakie]

godzilla should have eaten you!

[Mordecai4501]

Thats coolx

[1epicgamer]

5 ppl got pwned by kamehameha

[InnerConflict011]

1:13 - 1:16 felt like Cell

[georgebogurd]

Where can we get this ???

[jcobarbosa]

Awesome! Brilliant!

[maxstrongerr]

1:03 kinect fail

[MysteryRoberto]

muito fodaa

[bennemann]

You, sir, are oficially awesome.

[glitchuser4]

Amazing!

[moesamuri]

1:12 The last thing a lot of the villains in DBZ ever see

[Gunheddo]

This is totally awesome!

Maybe i should finally get a Kinect now ^^

[magnobatera1]

Porra,massa.....hehe

[roadkill14]

really cool man, keep it up!

[ripper6565]

You dumb ass, never preform a Kamehameha inside your house. Insurance companies have unanimously decided not to cover energy blasts.

[hogehoge335]

@ripper6565 Oh you are right. The terms said "Act of Saiyans" should not be covered!

[chestergeo]

@hogehoge335 well, technically speaking, "Acts of God" would include acts of Namekian(Namekuseijin) in general (since all of them have the potential to become Kami Sama). So I guess a Kamehameha is ok, but you shouldn't try any of Piccolo's moves! :-)

[LegatoCirion]

@ripper6565 I am quite sure almost all of the Dragon Ball attacks are classified as "Natural Disaster".

[NobleWolfXibi]

@ripper6565 Thumbs up for you for GLaDOS-like comment!

[jasperdj]

Thumbs up, if you think he should CONTINUE DEVELOPMENT!

[Jerry12i]

Thumbs up is you are here because of Mundo Estranho link

BRASIL RULES

[YorianSevenfold]

@Jerry12i Brazil in english spells with Z.

[F0NAT0]

PLEASE, CAN YOU MAKE A TUTORIAL VIDEO TO HOW TO INSTALL OPENNI AND ETC ???!!! BECAUSE WHEN I CLICK IN kinect-kamehameha.exe IT SAYS: ''MISSING MSVCR100.dll'' RECORD A TUTORIAL VIDEO PLEASE !

[hogehoge335]

@F0NAT0 Hmm, it seems OpenNI and NITE are upgraded recently (which I have not tried yet), and it may have caused your issue. Let me take a look, but give me some time because I am so busy for my regular work... Thanks for your interest and patience!

[F0NAT0]

@hogehoge335 THANK YOU VERY MUCH, I WILL WAIT =D

[mig36su27]

(´･ω･｀)これで君もフサフサですよね？ 

[hogehoge335]

@mig36su27 誰か試してくれないかなあw

[EllobodeFuego]

Seeeeee el proximo reto

[megamaa]

Y-your power level....

It's over NINE THOUSAAAAND!

[izzlefrizzle]

the more reason to buy kinect.

[tamemsam]

...Am i the only one who doesnt understand what the big deal is with DBZ. im not against it or anything...but i dont like animai.

[paladinstorm]

@tamemsam Well, there are much better ones out there, regardless, so it's not that great an example of the medium.

[gabmax97]

Make a rasengan

[pimpin420253]

THANX ALOT IM HAVING ALOT OF FUN WIT THIS STUFF WORKS FINE JUST I GOTTA GET THE LIGHTING FIXED IN MY ROOM

[noelaraujomoreira]

parabéns pelo trabalho, espero que isso se torne um jogo, pq esse cara vai ganhar uma fortuna, e eu vou me divertir muito

[jasperdj]

Any more updates???? Cant wait for more video's !

[raditts]

Sparking!!!

[bravojr]

Multiplayer and intractable beams! Do it Naow!!!!!

[manallin]

The calibration is very fragile, I have no problem with any other kinect app for it to take perfectly the Calibration, but here I do and I´m always user: new user: lost . When I get Henished as soon as I move I loose it...

We need a more Stable Calibration for this app, It´s amazing congratulations!

[hogehoge335]

@manallin Thank you for trying this app. I know several people having this issue, but it is extremely difficult for me to nail it down because it does not reproduce in my place. I have not found any API to specify the skeleton tracking sensitivity, either. I am sorry but I have no clues. Since this app is open source, hopefully someone else may find it out...

[hogehoge335]

@manallin It seems the unstable versions of drivers and middleware causes the calibration issue. Use the stable versions, and then I think the problem will be gone. I listed the exact URL of the stable versions at WorkingConfigurations page in the project site.

[manallin]

@hogehoge335 Thanks man I´ll give it a try now.

[manallin]

@hogehoge335 I´m on it now then.

[manallin]

@hogehoge335 That worked. Cool.. however, I don´t see the kamehame, just the glow and the %counter, maybe the shader thing? Ati radeon 8400

[hogehoge335]

@manallin I observed the same issue on my friend's machine. Probably for the shader as you assumed. His OpenGL version was 4.10 which was newer than I tested. What is your OpenGL version? It will be displayed on the console right after starting the application.

[manallin]

Cool App, I´ve tried it and works, BUT, I think it has problems with the calibration. It´s constantly saying "User: NEW, User: Lost" "Pose Psi detected: Calibration Start..." HENISHED and then as soon as I move It says user. Lost

All other apps like MikuMikuDance for instance works without loosing the calibration or the user, maybe it´s because you are using NITE without the proper treshold? let me know please. I´m tired of doing the Psi Pose tryinng to get henish LOL

[jasperdj]

Any updates :) It has been 3 WEEKS! :S

[TheTrueChuster]

I think I´ll buy Kinect only for this...

when the Rasengan update? :D

[phoinx3D]

Awesome!

[erikafoshizzle]

Need...Kinect...Now...

[simongie]

Absolutely amazing! Well done, man!

[omarcortes88]

No matter what you do in life, there's always going to be an asian dude doing it 10 times better.

[jasperdj]

I am already imaging people making movies using you're effects! :)

[jasperdj]

Well done, you're video's should get way more views.

The work you do is simply brilliant ! Keep on coding!

[randy7027]

and your getting away with this how???

[yanivcogan1]

can you please publish this as a free indie game for xbox? that would be a great fun for me and a great advertising for you!!!

amazing work, the new rendering is amazing, while the hair still looks some kind of wierd and it's not affect by the light (0:42) but I'm sure you have a great future. and I hope you will continue to upgrade this project

[mcklain]

@michaelwaynehamilton You don't need to be a supersayayin to be able to throw a kamehameha in the dragon ball universe. Duh. Ha.

[kikobnuu]

perfecttttttttttttttt

[gilesahrun]

MASTA SPAAAKU!!

[jambo366]

IT'S OVER 9000!!!

[rubensource38]

@jambo366 The original is: ITS OVER 8000, in japan and latin america

[yanivcogan1]

i think the hair makes it strange, forget about it and update the effect

very well done.

you should work more about one project like this!

[OmegaDragon7]

what if the user was bald? what would happen?

[hogehoge335]

@OmegaDragon7 I'm also interested. Can someone try it and share the video? :-)

[thevictorstudios]

@OmegaDragon7 ask Nappa

[brestevam]

@OmegaDragon7 4 circles would pop on his forehead. (Krillin) ROFL XD

[Rldband1]

Im very impressed, cant wait to see an improved version with better graphics

[proberush]

So dazzling

[nathanthekiller]

Yup, Even know my graphic card drivers was only a month old it fixed the problem when i updated it, still happens every now and then but it works now!

[hogehoge335]

@nathanthekiller Great to hear that you got it worked! Several people reported the same issue of losing the motion tracking, but I have not found the cause so far. Environment dependent issues are very hard to debug in general...

[nathanthekiller]

awesome demo! Although i'm having trouble. Some reason i lose tracking alot. I've changed angles and position but it still doesn't work. I'm trying to update my Graphics Drivers now to see if that helps at all. It seems to happen randomly even if i'm not moving hardly, And i can never use the blast. Just charge it up and sometimes it'll disappear, Then i'll have to go back into the calibration pose.

[Skypomate]

very very nice

but you are standing there like an ultimate gaylord :D

[Anim8or44]

lol love the hair part
