Killing Black Dragons In Runescape using Super Anti Fire and Extream Potions

February 25th, 2010 by admin

It has taken me a very long time to get my herblore high enough to make:
Extream potions, i didn’t expect these higher level potions as i have always increased my herblore using farming (growing herbs ) and killing creatures for Slayer Xp, the update in Runescape allows players with high herblore to kill dragons without the use of a anti fire shield, this can be great for fast killing, as you can see in the video the high hits i take off the dragons, i still don’t own a firecape :( maybe with fire cape these hits would be even much higher.
I hope you like the video i have put together i will be posting more videos in the future of other things in runescape and show other people how to capture games with hypercam, the music in this video is named:
Crawl And Hide and Field Forces.

The Inflatable movie screen are fantastic for get together s or functions, as it brings everyone together in one central spot to watch a classic movie or even a hot new release video, put some beanbags out or chairs in front of the huge screen grab a bite to eat or even have a BBQ sit in the fresh air and relax.

You can a outside movie night just about anywhere just as long as you have enough space to have one, if you have pool party the inflatable movie screen is perfect as it is weather and water proof, is your friends having a party take it with you, they are also great on the beach as long as you have a inverter for power or generator.

Make sure its rather pleasant weather not to much wind, because they are light weight, and it will move around if the wind blows to much, but they can be tied down quite well to avoid most of the lighter wind.

People can hire these inflatable movie screens from party rental companies, you just need to make sure you get one that’s big enough for your audience size, make sure also to have speaker set up so its loud enough, you may be able to use your home stereo system and amplifier for this, if you don’t have a movie projector they also can be hired from the party hire place.

Here are the AVI settings i used with My Screen Recorder Pro.

video-settings-for-my-scree

Lets take YouTube for example, you can use http://keepvid.com to download videos its rather easy to download the files from YouTube when you use this site but you will need a FLV player you can download a free one from here http://www.wimpyplayer.com/products/or you will need to convert the FLV to WMV or some other format that so that you can view the video.

After i had downloaded the video from YouTube, i converted it from FLV to WMV so i was able to edit it in windows movie maker 2 then re uploaded it to YouTube, this is what the video looks like now :)

There are many other programs that will let you download videos from YouTube, some will even convert the FLV format to AVI or WMV format, then you can watch it right away on your computer system.

Compress video files or convert them

May 14th, 2009 by admin

There are many ways for video compression,  some are very good and some are not so good, lets take a look at different formats of compressed videos, some are very common like .AVI, MPEG or DIVX some play on Home DVD players, but all will play on a PC computer with the right software installed.

There is a few different ways to compress a video or movie, if you don’t want any loss of quality in your videos i would just compress it with WinRAR file
compression software, WinRAR is a powerful archive manager, if you don’t have WinRAR you can download load it here here http://www.rarlab.com once you have it installed, get it going and locate your video, mine is here

video-file
Now right mouse click on the video file and select the second choice

add-file-to-compress1

and leave all the settings default for now this will make a compressed file of your video thus making it a bit smaller it does does some time though, my file was 357MB after it was compressed it is now 353MB only 4MB reduced its not really worth it! it also did take a very long time.

create-archive
With WinRar you can set a password encryption for your video file, you can make self extracting and multi volume archives etc.

Another way you can compress the video is to convert it to a different file format this will reduce the audio video quality and file size, i am using Xilisoft Video Converter Ultimate http://www.Xilisoft.com/trialware

I have reduced the file using .FLV format, this is a great format if you want to add video to your website as now its only 74mb in size, here is a video of how i did it :)

How to use fraps and good settings

May 10th, 2009 by admin

When using Fraps, it does take up a lot of system resources, it can also be used as benchmarking games finding out how many FPS or (Frames Per Second) a game can run at, but it will reduce the amount of FPS to some amount as Fraps will use a lot of system RAM.

For best results

Make sure you exit any programs that might be taking up RAM or memory on your computer, exit and quit everything you don’t need running, if your system is a slow computer, you may only be able to record in 10 FPS and in this case you will lose a lot of game play while recording.

Good settings for Fraps

When i use Fraps i use 25 FPS, for small games, but if i am recording a game that requires 3d and a lot of RAM i will use 10 FPS click.
For settings click on the  Movies TAB then select 25 FPS now if your trying to record something and its very laggy this is due to a slower system, which means you need more RAM or a better 3D video Card, you can select 20 FPS or slower in the custom box but you wont be able to capture as many frames in the game.

fraps-settings

Hard Drive Space

Fraps records in the best video capture quality AVI and a 5 min capture will take up about 5 GIGA BYTES at 30 FPS, this is a lot when you might want to record 30 Min’s or so, you will need a fair amount of HARD DRIVE lots of free space.

Recording a game

When you are ready to record a game start Fraps then start your game you want to record, then when ready just press the F9 key to start recording when you have finished recording your game just press the F9 key again to stop.

Where are my saved videos

You can find the saved videos under C:\Program Files\Fraps but you can change this location in the movie options TAB to what ever you like.

Saving and compressing your video

You can use any type of video editor, but for a free version just use Windows movie maker if your running XP, keep the video at 800×600 or under when using Windows movie maker.

Screen capture

You can also take photos of anything in a game while playing by pressing F10 every time you press F10 you will have a new photo, photos are saved in the folder C:\Program Files\Fraps but you can change this location in the Screenshots options TAB to what ever you like, you can also set the file type .BMP .JPG PNG and .TGA there is a auto option of setting it to take a photo every 10 20 sec or whatever you like.

May 9th, 2009 by admin

I will show you how you can slow you video down in windows movie maker 2, this is effect in windows movie maker is called,  Slow down, Half and you can find it under the Tools, Video Effects TAB.
I have made a video of a video which has been on YouTube for a while now some guy bursting a water balloon, i had to try and slow this video down even more just to see what it might look like, i have added the (Slow down, Half) effect on the video clip 2 times which means the video will run for 2 mins, every time you add the effect it will slow down the video even more, heres the video of how its done.

I have also included the video after it was completed below.

Now the hamster running in a slow motion video,  i have added the slow down effect 2 times on the video time line.


Brighter video in windows movie maker

May 7th, 2009 by admin

This wont work the best, but it might at least let you see what you filmed ornight-video even know whats going on in the video.
Night time movie making is pointless unless you have the correct lighting, but sometimes you might end up filming at night anyway, i have a few videos that are just too dark to use on a website or upload, this is where you may be able to bring some life back into your video, using a feature in movie maker that is a Video Effect and its called Brightness, Increase and you can also use Grayscale to take out the color which sometimes look better in darker videos.
Now i have a video of some puppies but it was filmed at night time, here is a
small short clip of how dark it looks before editing.

When you have your video in the time line we will select from Tools, Video Effects.

video-effects

Then drag the Brightness Increase Icon onto the video time line,

drag-brightness

i have added the icon onto the timeline 3 times, the more times the brighter it becomes, i have also added the Grayscale (Black and white) icon i dragged that onto the video time line as well, here is the video after i fixed the dark video.
