What's your least favorite about..
« on: December 11, 2010, 10:58:11 AM »
Editing.

This can go in all categories from recording to rendering

I would say my most annoying experience would be with recording. It just gets me in a bad mood before the edit.
 When the cam goes through a building, when it gets pushed because of an object and especially when the stunter's reps are like 30 attempts before the actual completion.

Yea recording can be a pain in the ass due to the things you've already mentioned and the fact that you want everthing to be as good looking as possible and your computer may not have enough power to record in such quality.

During editing the most annoying thing is probably the rendering...and sometimes you just can't think of how to edit a certain part of the video to the song and then you get kinda stuck.
Sucks.

Recording is by far the worse part of it. Lack of ideas is pretty bad aswell

Yeah the bad things you summed up on the recording are really shitty especially the long boring attempts (which is why I always load on foot), I never really have a lack of ideas, except once or twice.

Another thing would be when you have really many leftovers and you just discovered there were better ones left in the folder than you used.

RECORDING, what an obvious question  :cc_detective:

Recording in GTA4 is fun for me tho.

Perhaps it's just me, but the mouse uses to freeze ingame sometimes. You can enable it again by randomly hitting the mouse button in the pause menu. The game often uses to freeze aswell then, so you'll have to restart and reset all Freeplay settings again (time/vehicle color IDs/weather/etc.).

I also hate to record on less than 25 FPS, my movements look jumpy cuz of my sucky laser mouse. Also it takes ages to capture with a smaller FPS amount (I actually use 10, so my PC can handle FHD + ENB etc.).

I can understand that some people dislike long replays with mutiple attempts, but I rather use such ones. The map objects are at least loaded entirely on the needed attempt. Unloaded object textures just look extremely ugly.

On ENB series I hate the bugged DOF, water and shadows. That makes recording really annoying.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Vegas generally is a great software to put all the things together, but I also hate some aspects of it ... just like encoding. On like 70% of all videos I rendered, I had some fucking rendering problems. I know that my old crappy PC dislikes to render like a half day for one fucking file. But it doesn't need to remember me with annoying crashes over and over again lol. The program freezes while rendering lossless .avi files pretty often or just closes up without any error messages, no matter which codec I am using.

Editing itself is quite much fun to me, but those crashes piss me off and I often just lose my mood to continue. My old RAM is also extremely slow on previews.

My hardware stuff likes to torture me over and over again. Worst thing all about might be uploading with my epic 17kb/s.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The most annoying points are simply caused by my hardware. So if I had some better one and wouldn't be that lazy, I perhaps would edit some more videos.
Kind of a wonder that I enjoy doing videos though. :|

After reading I was thinking about a few others

I hate when sometimes the mouse might cause fraps to completely freezes and I have to go back to using my touchpad which doesn't get any good views since it's tiny and limited.

In editing I HATE when you find a good enough song, then you make some progress and you randomly lose all will to go on, delete the save file and start with a better song :l

In rendering I hate how I render in 1080...and youtube says 720. F U YT

"Vegas found a problem and needs to be closed" thats why I always need to save and restart Vegas after each thing I add, so I rarely will edit something...

I hate it when Vegas doesn't read Fraps files correctly and then gives you offline footage/crashes. As soon as I've rendered my next video, I'm moving onto Premiere Pro CS5 :). It's just so much better, I use it a lot in studios as well so it shouldn't be a problem to start editing GTA videos with it either. Also means no rendering between After Effects and the edit program, and rendering perfect MP4's out without the need for MeGUI.
