VC Un-Modded Stunting Video Releases / Re: Skuller - Impervious
« on: May 19, 2020, 12:52:40 PM »
Good video, but ehh.... where can I find these collision fixes? Quite a few stunts are bumps of off stuff that definitely isn't solid in my VC/LC. Now I don't mind it particularly when someone fixes something that is clearly broken, but without sharing = caring... that is just regular modding in my book.

Apart from that, I have to say this was a very enjoyable video. Good variety, both of vehicles and methods even though stuck vehicles don't exactly have my preference. There were a few stunts where they were used nicely, like the BSM stuck against the fence on that green roof landing. It's nice to see that as of late we are getting more videos where it's not only PCJ600s doing bigairs. I love that subtle hard-but-looks-easy kind of stuff with the tiny/fucked up runups that I saw in this video as well. The smaller the better I'd say! More time for the stunt itself and less time just gathering speed.

All in all a very solid video!

Awesome to see that we can still put out good videos together, and very happy to be in this. I particularly liked JustCaus3's taxi stunt, Zero's grind combo, and mehmet once again owning that construction site, but the variety of the video with a lot of different vehicles and cool ideas is also great! I ought to spend some more time fucking around with a Sanchez again, it has its flaws but damn does it have some cool shit to it as well.

sequel when?!

I'd like to add that I think Daffy's stunt is such a clever find, I remember Iskanderrr (or some other mad Russian GVTer) modding this back in the day and I've tried a variety of ways to land it clean, but never quite making that last little bit. It's nice to see someone find a way to land it though! I love it when these classic spots, those "everyone knows but nobody figured it out" kind of things that someone just comes and pulls off in an unexpected way. Hats fucking off!
Did you try to just do it normally? because that's how I landed it  :rolleyes:
Didn't know about this! Sick! But still like Daffy's approach as well, clever way to do it like I said

Enjoyable video, there were quite a few stunts that to me felt outright generic, but there were some really cool ideas as well. Standouts for me were Daffy, Ars, Ktulu, Max, Blaze, Nagual, and of course Ralleee (I remember you showing this one, was amazed with it already before!).

DSS Video Releases / Re: [DSS] Morgoth

Thoroughly enjoyed watching this video, a great variety, especially for a DSS video which I think would expect have a bit more of a big air-ish theme to them (so good to see some other stuff!). For me the standouts were TBV's tank stuff (the one to the Staunton police station wow!), Skuller's Freeway grind combo near the end in LC (great find), and Oliver's taxi stuff was cool as well. I also liked the bump to the waterway in SA, I think Skuller did that one? Overall I'd say stunting-wise this was one of your most enjoyable videos so far for me. The only thing I didn't like was that some stunts were recorded from a poor angle and/or cut too short so it was hard to figure out what was going on; this wasn't always the case but there were 50-10 stunts where I was kind of wondering WTF you guys were actually doing.

Hope you keep up the good work, it's always nice to come here and find a good video to watch, sure things might be slow but that's OK! As long as we're all having a good time, which I certainly had watching this.

Very enjoyable watch! I pretty much liked all the stunts I think, but Turok, Max, and Zero stood out for me (really liked the dropbump 2 grind by Turok and Max's freeway stunt near Leaf Links). Keep it going guys! I'll try to send something next year as well, I think I've liked the past few installments in this series as well.

USS Video Releases / Re: [USS] 2028
« on: September 17, 2019, 12:46:57 PM »
Thanks for the comments everyone! The 2028 is a nod to the slow pace of things in GTAS nowadays, after we released our previous crew video we had a topic titled USS 2028 and we just kept it as the title. Blaze and IceD were supposed to be in this but things just turned out a bit diffferently. IceD was evensupposed to edit but he kinda fell of the radar after finishing a pretty complete beta, no idea what he's up to.

As far as my stunts go, thanks for your nice comments. As someone already guessed the double stoppie 2 precision is indeed glitched (quite obviously I would say, but if you were still doubting let me just clear that up). MehMet actually showed me the spot for the Faggio stunt so props go to him for the idea. I love that part of VC though, so rich in possibilities. The police station precision is not possible natural as you need quite a bit of speed and that makes you overshoot the bump that the car is stuck on no matter what. Since I'm not a fan of stuck vehicles (like so many), I figured the least I could do is set it up in a natural position - wedged between the tree and the wall).

Very glad to see this out finally. I think if all had gone as planned this could have been out much much sooner. Hopefully our next video will be a bit less of struggle :)

VC Un-Modded Stunting Video Releases / Re: Keep Your Friends Close
« on: March 15, 2019, 01:50:31 PM »
Cool video and glad to be in it! I particularly liked vice ninja's stuff like the ledge grind combos and am very happy that Zero landed to manage that stoppie 2 grind combo, I've had my eye on that for a while in a bit of a different way but I am happy that I no longer need to bother with that spot. Editing-wise the cam angles were a bit ehhhhh but other than that I liked it, classic song always works wonders too :)

Thanks for inviting me Zero, it would be fun if we could organize a few more collabs like this around here. Sadly I no longer have as much free time on my hands anymore but usually I can spare 1-2 stunts for a video so if anybody is planning to organize something let me know!

Decent video, not a big fan of all the ledge grinds and some of the stranger setups. Loved the backward wallride though!

Great video, love me some plane stunting. A few little touches here and there but other than that amazingly clean

Computer Talk / Re: Best laptop computer for Vice City

The issue is not fl on, the point is getting your frame rate up to 30 in the first place I guess. If you have a piece of shit laptop or a really old pc then it won't even run VC at 30 FPS. Same applies for running it at high draw distance and such, my current laptop doesn't really allow for stunting at high draw distance , high resolution etc.

I have no real experience with the modern high-end PCs and whatnot so I can only speak for my own case. I've been doing all my stunting since ~2010 on a laptop and have no real qualms with it. If you dislike the flat keys on a laptop then you can also buy a simple USB keyboard, and dito for the mouse. In terms of performance, I have been using a cheap HP laptop (~250 euro) ith about 2.2 GHz dual core and a built-in graphics card for the last three years, which works fine but is close to becoming outdated/slow. Prior to this, I had a 300-400 euro Acer, which was also fine but I fucked it up because I'm an idiot. No idea on the specs for that one, but it was slightly worse than what I currently use.

So in short, any laptop should do, I think a little bit more recent than 2008 would be wise. If you don't want to spend so much I suggest looking in the 300 euro/dollar price range, that should already do the trick.

LLS Video Releases / Re: [LLS] Andromeda

Short but sweet video. My favorite was the beam precision in the LC building site, but there were good stunts all around. It is sad that this is the last video by LLS, but hopefully its (former?) members will stay active, as this video emphasizes how many of you still got that knack for stunting.

Amazing stuff obviously. You gave landed some of the most mindboggling stunts in VC, and this video is a great collection of your (recently landed) best stunts.

Keep riding you crazy panda fucker
