Any bets about the car? I say Corvette or Lancia.

I think one of the powergear cars, acura perhaps...

Acura NSX after Nissan Skyline? Not likely... Corvette is in use for USC, so Lancia is my bet.

Doe he do this often, taking a week off?
Title: Re: FTT0204
Post by: Chulk on March 12, 2009, 03:09:04 PM
Yes, I think so. Race will start next Monday. Anyway, I think he's busy, he hasn't been around for a few days...

Oh, sorry Krys but I couldn't resist LOL'ing at your news post...  :D No need to worry about excuses, and I was quite unable to race this week anyway. The only thing I'm really wondering about now is the car for #4, as I've been doing a bit of NoRH track design lately... ;)

Indeed. BTW, did I mention my bet is on Lancia? I hope it's Corvette, I've training with parkany track. ;)

Hi all. sorry for the delay, I'm definitively a crappy competition manager.
About the car you're all wrong. I promised AbuRaf to use his track, here is the moment : indycar, powergear, fast but not so easy. AbuRaf did the track, I added scenery.
Sorry for not talking more, I had a busy week and even busier wek-end. No time for points update and so on tonight, I'll try to do it this week (or at least I hope so).
Time to go guys, have fun. ;)

Indy falls within the collection "one of the powergear cars". ;D

Muchas gracias, Krys, por utilizar mi pista...

Has hecho realidad un sueño que yo tenía...  ver a los grandes del Stunts correr a máxima velocidad con el Indy, en una pista no tan fácil como tu lo dices...

Será además una prueba de fuego para mi también, ya que nunca intenté hacerla en NoRH.

Suerte para todos y como dice Krys....   a divertirse...!!!

Post by: Chulk on March 16, 2009, 09:13:37 PM
I'll race my best, as a tribute to you, my fellow teammate!

Voy a correr al maximo como homenaje a vos, mi compañero de siempre!
Title: Re: FTT0204
Post by: AbuRaf70 on March 16, 2009, 11:00:57 PM
Gracias Chulk....   Hoy yo estuve probando hacer un replay, pero tengo tremendos problemas con el DOSBox...  ya no pude hacer funcionar correctamente al Skyline y ahora, me pasa lo mismo con el Indy...

Para colmo de males, hice dos o tres vueltas y no me grabó el video...  esperemos que pueda solucionar este problema, sobre todo ahora que es MI PISTA...!!!!
Title: Re: FTT0204
Post by: Duplode on March 16, 2009, 11:28:48 PM
AbuRaf: Al pulsar el botón para grabar el video, ¿hay algún mensaje de error que aparece en la ventana de Terminal (la pantalla de línea de comandos desde la que lanza DOSBox)?
Title: Re: FTT0204
Post by: AbuRaf70 on March 17, 2009, 12:38:53 AM
Si Duplode...  siempre sale un mensaje de error, pero omití copiarlo, así que por ahora no te puedo decir cual es...  la próxima vez que salga, lo anoto y te lo comento...

Por suerte, recién, di una vuelta con sumo cuidado y con frame 1 (antes usaba 2 o 3) tuve la suerte que me grabó el video.

Por lo menos, a pesar del tiempo malo, veo mi nombre en mi pista...
Title: Re: FTT0204
Post by: AbuRaf70 on March 17, 2009, 01:16:54 AM
Duplode...  luego de escribir la otra respuesta, volvi a intentar con frame 2 y luego de romper muchas veces el auto, pude completar una vuelta y felizmente, grabó bien otra vez...

Lo que noto es que cuando el sonido sale entrecortado, todo falla, asi que tengo que salir del Stunts y recomenzar todo de nuevo...  la verdad es que estoy muy complicado con el DOSBox ...

Y el mensaje de error que siempre sale, es el de la imagen, que no se ve: 

Ha ocurrido un error.  La reproducción de esta película requiere un complemento Decodificador video/x-avi-unknown que no está instalado.   

Y la verdad que con mi hijo, no sabemos que es.  Si podés orientarme en ese sentido, te lo agradezco.  Recuerda que tengo instalado Ubuntu de Linux.
Title: Re: FTT0204
Post by: Duplode on March 17, 2009, 01:53:00 AM
Oh si, yo reconozco esta mensaje  :) Es probable que usted está usando un programa llamado "Totem" para ver los videos (Totem también se conoce como "Movie Player", o la correspondiente traducción al español). Si intento reproducir mi vídeos con Totem me sale el misma mensaje. Si su problema es cuando se reproduce los vídeos grabados, la solución más fácil es cambiar lo player. Instala y utiliza VLC Media Player en lugar de Totem (lo encontrará en Ubuntu de Agregar o quitar software de la herramienta) y deben reproducir correctamente. Si no, podemos buscar el problema en otros lugares (lo que me parece extraño es que algunos de sus videos funcionan bien. Todos ellos deberían ser afectadas si la culpa es del player...)
Title: Re: FTT0204
Post by: AbuRaf70 on March 17, 2009, 02:15:12 PM
Gracias por tu ayuda Duplode...  ahora le voy a pasar a mi hijo tu comentario para ver si él puede solucionar algo...

En cuanto a los videos, NO veo ninguno...  solamente cuando graba, sale el sonido nada más y así se los estoy enviando a Krys...  posiblemente el los vea porque utiliza lo que vos me estás indicando...

Ya te comentaré si tenemos algún progreso...

Bottom line of the Spanish discussion: if you happen to use Linux, don't bother using Totem Movie Player to watch DOSBox videos - go for VLC or MPlayer/KPlayer instead. :)

Perdón Krys y a todos los demás, por usar Español, pero fue a sugerencia de Bonzai Joe que me comentó que me entendía mejor si usaba el español que el traductor en inglés...

Hoy estoy feliz, porque pude grabar otro video (sonido solamente) y mejoré un poco mi tiempo...
Title: Re: FTT0204
Post by: Krys TOFF on March 17, 2009, 03:55:58 PM
Oh, codec issue. No problemo, as long as I can watch the videos to verify them. ;)

Exito total...!!!   cuando terminé de bajarlo, lo probé al VLC Media Player y por fin, ahora puedo ver el video y escuchar el sonido...

Muchas Gracias por tu ayuda....

I thought this made a better pun, since Spanish and French were supposed to be really similar.

Bien por Duplode...!!!    El primero de los grandes que se animó con mi pista...

Y con un tiempo que yo no pude lograr ni corriendo en RH...

Veremos quien se anima a presentarle "pelea"...

Chulk, espero que como me lo prometiste, pongas todo tu empeño en hacer un buen replay.

Looks like I get to have a run for my money again. Let's see how neck to neck we can get this last week.

EDIT: Wow, I just managed to improve my time by .05 seconds, didn't think I'dd get to do that in a NORH contest...

Muy bien para el Maestro Gutix....!!!

Parece que no se olvidó de manejar...   por mi parte, sigo padeciendo con el DOSBox , cuando pongo para grabar el video, se me hace inmanejable el auto...

De todas maneras, no aspiro llegar tan arriba, pero por lo menos "complicarlo" un poco a Overdrijf, para divertirnos un poco...  veremos que pasa...

Lol, I'm really bad. I noticed I had spellt my name wrong a few times, so I tried to type "Overdrijf can't spell" , and then erase it to just my name, but apparently, there are more things I can't do, so no my official winning replay stands on the name of "Overdrijf can't" ;)

FELICITACIONES...!!!    y por supuesto, nuevamente gracias a Krys por haberme dado ese gran gusto... 

Y además, la gran sorpresa...   ya está la 205....!!!

Let me mention Chulk's time almost caught me by surprise - I was pretty close to considering myself satisfied with 1:06.35 during my final session yesterday... anyway, thank you guys for the compliments, and thanks to AbuRaf in particular - the chase for the final tenths on this track was one of the most satisfying drives I had in a while!

Impressive times for the top 3, I didn't imagine that going under 1'08 without RH was possible.

I was quite silent these days, sorry for that. I had to do a Stunts break. It happens sometimes.

Motivation is back now, I'll check Overdrijf track proposal and will do the website big update in the next days. Congrats to the podiumers once again and thanks to AbuRaf for his great track.

I'm not sure you'll enjoy that much the new one with Audi. :P

Post by: AbuRaf70 on April 06, 2009, 04:20:50 PM
Efectivamente Chulk...  cumpliste lo prometido, con un tiempazo, que yo creía imposible en NoRH...

Pero, quien iba a pensar en el tiempo increíble de Duplode...  evidentemente, ya tiene ganado un lugar entre los "Grandes del Stunts"....

When looking for tracks for the latest episode of Stunts Pro Academy (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=55ZIiKajswE) I also looked into this track. I didn't end up using it, but I do mention it in the video. The track no longer seems to be available on the FTT website (getting caught between no longer being the "active" track but not being included in the archive yet), but I did still have it on my own computer. So I'm attaching it to this post for posterity, and for people who became interested after seeing the episode.
