PCE Software Bible updates

_Paul · 06/11/2006, 02:30 PM

I've redesigned the front page a little and have now added the following gameplay videos: After Burner II, Dracula X, R-Type I, Schbibin Man, Space Harrier and Street Fighter II'.

I'll be working on adding a few more this week so keep an eye out.

Seldane · 06/11/2006, 03:45 PM

I just gotta say: awesome front page! I especially like the hucard-buttons!

_Paul · 06/11/2006, 04:17 PM

Thanks

Just added: Rastan Saga II video. Woohoo!

Keranu · 06/12/2006, 05:20 AM

Looking good man, and I dig the front page with the cute HuCards as well

. I do hope you enlarge the small screenshot pictures like you mentioned in the other thread, an original resolution size would be really nice. That's up to you though.

Working on it now.

Yep, great job so far.
And bigger screenshots would definitly help. Although a video is worth a thousand pictures

akamichi · 06/12/2006, 11:00 AM

Great stuff Paul! That Rastan Saga II video had me laughing hard! It's just like you and stevek666 described!

I'll have to try it out myself just to say I suffered through the gameplay.

Oh, one last thing, on the main page under the updates, the Street Fighter II link goes to Space Harrier. I was able to get to the SF2' video from the Gameplay Videos link in the Omake section though.

Keep up the good work!

Digi.k · 06/12/2006, 12:06 PM

yup great new home page. and yea I wanna point out that Street fighter link too.

_Paul · 06/12/2006, 12:17 PM

Link fixed. Thanks for pointing that out.

TR0N · 06/13/2006, 12:33 AM

Great stuff, I really dig the hucard weblinks.

Just want to point out a minor mistake on KYUKYOKU TIGER. You have its AKA as Tiger Heli and it should be changed to the name, Twin Cobra. Tiger Heli is an older game that came out before Kyukyoku Tiger (Twin Cobra).

The AKA is used for names which games are WRONGLY known as, as well as alternate names (i.e. US). For example, The Kung Fu is also known as Drunken Master, even though this is not the name of the game. Ultimate Tiger is often called (incorrectly) Tiger Heli.

Fantastic work, Paul. You've made my PC Engine Bible wish from years ago come true!

_Paul · 06/15/2006, 11:41 AM

I originally used the tiny screens because of download times, so it's about time they were updated now everyone has adsl. I've taken a whole load more and will integrate them as soon as I can.

Oh, I see, that is pretty neat. The import stores would always get the names of games wrong (sometimes they just made shit up).

I bet there are differences between the names UK vs. French vs. U.S. importers assigned to games.

Odonadon · 06/19/2006, 12:30 AM

Good work man, and good luck. I originally started out Turbo2k many years ago with the idea I'd have all the screenshots done as well, and at least 2 done per game. I've gotten to the point where I think I'm around 95% complete, however I've virtually given up. If you can do 'em all, my hats off to ya

OD

_Paul · 06/19/2006, 12:29 PM

Well I may be calling for help from the guys on the forum here soon to fill in some of the major screenshot blanks I have.

Let me know man, I've got a bazillion and am not against sharing if you need a hand to complete the project

In fact, if you really wanted, I could give you access to all of them right now - should speed things up if only a little bit for you. Let me know.

_Paul · 06/20/2006, 01:19 PM

Ooo, are they all full resolution, clean png or gif grabs?
What I need is title screen and one in game shot for anything I'm missing. I really need to get a list up of the priority games (not having pics of countless mah jong games worries me less than not having some for Sapphire for example).

Odonadon · 06/20/2006, 11:54 PM

Check your PM

_Paul · 06/24/2006, 02:48 PM

Gameplay video added: Shadow of the Beast.

grendelrt · 06/24/2006, 03:45 PM

I beat Shadow of the Beast god knows how many times back on my TG16+CD. I always wondered though,
*SPOILER*

was the last boss really a big toe, whenever I finished it, I would be like, that just doesnt seem like the end to me , did I miss something.

_Paul · 06/24/2006, 05:16 PM

hehe, I know, that has to be the oddest end of game boss ever.

I am checking this out ASAP. NO JOKE! I have the HuCard, but that doesn't mean I want to actually go through the labor of taking it out of the case and inserting it into the console

Gameplay video added: W-Ring.

This one was a bit of a nightmare. Because of the rate your bullets flash, half the time they were showing up blank on the video. Took a couple of retries to fix it. Still a couple of glitches in there though.

Tatsujin · 07/13/2006, 08:41 PM

did you try out some different framerates for the capturing? i think with 15, 30, 60fps you will get the best result.^^"

_Paul · 07/14/2006, 11:01 AM

I capture at 50fps which is no problem. The issue is with editing afterwards. I use Windows Movie Maker which kind of limits the options for exporting, but a few tweaks and it's usually OK.
