Thanks to the good grace of Insomniac Iguana in business ( I.E., my friend's computer ) and his capture card, I have been able to make a number of Samurai Spirits 64: Asura no Zanmaden capture movies. ^_^ If anybody's willing to host them, please inform me.

I'd take any of the cool FMV's from the first 3 games (Like I said, I was Turbo Duo impared as a gamer..Though I at least got to play Book of Y's 1 and 2..).

Yeah, sure, I'll try. BTW, we tried to capture some movies from " Goemon's' Great Adventure " , for the N64... but it wouldn't let us capture!!! Does ANYBODY know why this is the case??

Yay, thanks for the movies! :)

Hmmm, as for the capture card:

1) how did you connect the 2 together?
2) what software are you using to grab the footage?
3) eh, what brand of capture card are you using? :)

AV cables should work just fine. Just
worried you used something like S-Video or
RGB / YUV cables :)

Also tell me what goes wrong, eg:
- can you see the footage on your computer
screen? or nothing comes out?
- can you hear any audio?
- any error messages?

Yes, we can see the the game, and sound comes through; it just doesn't do anything when we click on " capture " . Also, I'd like to know what other people think about this, and I reiterate my offer of trying to do various captures for people. Any characters you'd like to see in more SS movies, or any other games you'd like us to make captures of? So far, I have Akumajo Dracula X: Rondo of Blood and Valis... Speaking of which, which Valis game would you like to see, Satoshi Miwa?

Mmm, sounds like you have a DirectX problem
(DirectDraw), or your video capture driver
is corrupted.

Try reinstalling the latest version of
DirectX in your PC first.
If that doesn't work, try uninstalling and
then reinstalling your capture software.

This has happened to someone I know. In the
end, he had to reinstall his Windows2000
again :(

Mm.... just thought of something;
maybe it's the video frequency of the game?
I'm not sure if the games are able to carry
different frequencies (Pal, NTSC, Secam) but
maybe you'll have to adjust the signal
frequency settings in your capture software.

You might be right, Holiday, and it would seem that we have the same problem with ALL systems, other than supernova/arcade boards.... He's e-mailed the manufacturer for help. Hopefully, we can get this sorted out. ARGHH!!!!

Okay, the manufacturer replied back! ^_^ Apparently, arcade systems convert RGB video to NTSC video directly, or something, and home consoles don't. They've said that if we hook it up to a T.V. and capture from the T.V., it should work fine. Ha ha ha, so it'll work out after all! ^_^

Never saw this game before, but it looks very cool! I like the Hanzo moves, they seem pretty cool. And I like that guy with Red hair, he looks brutal!

They range from about 2 to 4 megs. There are eight currently, we plan to try and make more next weekend. I could've made them in mpeg format, but they'd be about 14 megs each, if I did.... I'm going to make at least one mpeg, though, as a request.

Hmm, that's quite small. I was thinking 200~ megs :)
What format are the movies in? I'm guessing
DivX Avis?
As for conversion to mpegs, I could do the
conversion for you.

But currently I cannot spare much space on
my ftp site. Hopefully it'll be free during
the 1st week of March.

Don't have to feel guilty about it

When you see the amount of people who open
10 connections and leech off the mp3s hosted

I'm sure they exist, given how popular the series is. It's just a question if they've been scanned or not....

Speaking of Vandread Doujin, I had just had a chance to check out the first chapter of the Vandread manga by Gonzo and boy is it different (Very different...) from the opening of the anime. It's worth reading just to see where the changes will be heading..

Anyway, sorry to hear that the Dita doujin
you saw was bad :(

Vandread has so much potential for a H-
Doujin because it has *that* one particular
character in it. Those who have watched the
2nd Stage will know what I'm talking about!

length to try and justify those "insta
