The new season has begun

So, Freedom Fridays ended last week. However, Seferia has already got to work on starting her new weekly saturday hunt stream. So, all’s good! It wasn’t a long wait at all, huh? Yea, I know, it’s mostly a joke.

Anyway, I’ve been having fun on Tri Ultimate so far. I’m still not too far into the game, unfortunately, and struggling for resources and all that. So, the overpowered Seferia from earlier streams was not present. No, instead, another Seferia was present. It was the one that barely had any equipment or materials. The one that was struggling to make her stuff up to par. Yes, that’s the Seferia that appeared on Saturday.

Also, I think I need to tweak my mic settings. It is noticable that my mic is louder than the other callers. I’ll try to remember that soon.

Anyway, enjoy the show below.

The Soulcalibur streams will return

Seferia has talked some friends into getting Soulcalibur V for cheap, so she now has a group in which to enjoy custom characters with. The insanity will once again be revived.

Sadly, a DC from the game caused my system to crash to the degree that I had to actually turn off the power to get it to turn off. So, the stream was cut short. Still, we had fun while it lasted.

Check out the recording of the stream after the more. Also, yes, Seferia’s skill level goes way down if she doesn’t play a game in months.

Freedom Fridays has come to an end

Sadly, my evening before streaming was restless, so I wasn’t the most energetic for my final Freedom Fridays stream as I had wanted to be. However, I did my best to have some fun and stream with as much energy and sanity as I could manage. I will admit, that I did indeed have fun as well. I just couldn’t come anywhere close to maintaining my usual momentum with the lack of sleep that I had.

However, I did have one sweet moment. I do not know if it was a glitch or what, but I managed to trap two monsters in one pitfall trap. It was glorious. It was also completely unexpected. I had never seen that occur. By the response in the chat, nor had anyone else who had viewed the stream.

Also, I so need to stop saying that staff members said they’d show and hunt. It seems to curse me. I swear they say it, but they do have lives and wind up being delayed at times.

Oh yes, and the Hauppauge sometimes does freak out. I was silly and forgot how I had managed to reset it from those times without a reboot. Hopefully next time it happens, I’ll remember that process properly.

Anyway, feel free to watch the finale here.

The swarm conquers all

Except Seferia’s desire to be lazy last night. I almost didn’t play any Starcraft last night because I was on the edge of falling asleep.

In fact, I spent most of my evening watching Hellsing Ultimate, which I blame Meez for. He’s currently using Alucard as his avatar, which reminded me that the original anime series was interesting and that I had never gone back to properly watch Ultimate. I’ll definitely say that Ultimate is much better than the original anime series.

Anyway, back on the real subject. Starcraft is going quite well. I may flail about when having to play as Terrans, but I zerg with some form of ability. I’m not fully certain what that ability is, but I do do it.

Anyway, feel free to enjoy the show after the more:

Seferia has joined the swarm

Mmmmm…. Zerg!

I am more than happy that my special editino of Starcraft II: Heart of the Swarm came in tonight. I basically jumped on it as soon as it came to my house. I only had to wait a short bit for it to install, then I plunged into my adventure as Sarah Kerrigan.

Even though I was certain that my strategies were not up to par, I felt like streaming this game. So, I spent several hours this past evening hitting SZZZZZRVSZZZZZ F2 and so on. It was rather fun. I do honestly enjoy Starcraft. However, I am by no means good enough to try to seriously play it.

Anyway, feel free to watch the streams here.

The season finale is approaching.

Freedom Fridays is quickly reaching the end of its life. As I had mentioned before, I have intentions of replacing my weekly Monster Hunter stream with a TriU-based stream. I’ve yet to pin down a name or day for this stream, so I’m open to suggestions.

Anyway, this past week’s Freedom Fridays was a complete success. It may have started off slow, but once it picked up, it was a blast. I also beat my prior records of nearing but not passing 9 hours of streaming. Yes, now my record stands firmly at a ten hour long non-stop stream.

The only sad thing about the stream was that at about hte half-way point, the frame rate became unstable. I’ll try to isolate the problem to determine if I can stream with music playing again or not. However, the music that I was playing at the start of the stream had to be killed off.

There was also a slight issue near the end with a person making comments that were not quite ones that I wanted to support in any way nor give any impression that I support. I do not enjoy having an entire group of people blanket-hated upon. I care not how one wants to term this hatred, it is not ok. Those that do come on the calls for my streams with such attitudes will be removed each and every time.

Anyway, if you think that you can make it, enjoy watching the recording of the stream.

The end of the Dead Space run has come

This time, Seferia did not have the technical glitches. However, Shayla on the other hand… Her mic became possessed by powers that possibly were summoned by Harv. Yea, I’m pretty certain that Harv was the one who set her up for the downfall.

Also, a lot and very public Happy Birth to Harv. The guy didn’t have cake though. So, poor guy. Cake is good. Especially if it were ice cream cake.

Anyway, want to watch the end of the saga? Feel free to check it out below.

The end is drawing near

Tri Ultimate is releasing this month, which means that the weekly stream for P3rd is likely going to conclude in two weeks or so. This doesn’t mean that I’m done with P3rd streaming nor weekly monster hunter streams. No, it just means that the P3rd stream will be replaced with a TriU stream.

I’d also probably be likely to move the date of the weekly stream to make it work out a bit better, maybe. I don’t know. I’ll see if Friday is still a desirable day. I have time to think on that matter.

P3rd streams will likely occur when I have the whim to go onto P3rd. However, Freedom Fridays will be set free.

Anyway, enough of that talk. I’m not even fully certain what my plans are yet.

Anyway, this past Friday, I did stream P3rd again and this time, I think that I have the audio working nearly perfectly with what I want. I might need some tweaks and such, but it sounded much more stable from what I’ve skimmed over.

Unfortunately, Xsplit did have a silly error near the start of the stream. However, that was just a random error that could not be planned for. Sadly, computer programs do occasionally do that.

Anyway, feel free to watch the recordings. I’m open to any feedback, especially on the audio quality.

More lessons while experimenting

I’m still on my quest for the perfection in which I seek. This perfection is escaping me for now, but I will eventually obtain it, I swear.

However, Trillian turned out to not be the key to that perfection.

Last night, I once again performed a number of test streams. This time around, I did some research and looked at my resources. When I glanced over what programs were munching up resources, I quickly found that Skype likes to eat a whole lot of resources. I also noticed that Trillian, on the other hand, does not. So, a brilliant plan of using Trillian instead of Skype for stream Skype calls came into play.

It didn’t work out as well as the brilliant plan idea that had been envisioned. Apparently, while Trillian does indeed use less resources, it doesn’t have an option to turn off the mic volume adjustments. So, my voice was regularly brought to a near whisper thanks to the program’s tendencies. So, Trillian has been cut out of the available options.

Maybe I’ll look into the mumble thing that had been mentioned once. I remember using vent while on WoW, and that was a nice program, though I wouldn’t want to pay for another vent server.

Anyway, if you want to watch the fail, here you go.

Bash things enough, and maybe something happens

This past week has been filled with a lot of trial and error. For that bit, I apologize. I wish that I could get programs to work the way that I want them to the first shot. However, things regularly need to be bashed in order to discover all the bugs. Then tweaked and bashed again.

It’s never a pretty process.

Anyway, OBS project has been fired. Sorry to all those that love that program, when it drops my streams like crazy, it gets shot and told “you suck!” I do not know what else I could do to get that program to work properly. I’ve tired, but it simply is not meant to be.

So, last night, I brainstormed and decided to try another approach. This approach involved minimizing the preview on Xsplit so that it would not use up so many unnecessary resources. I also bumped up the bitrate for the sound. The result sounded like it was close to what I wanted. So, I think I have it.

So, feel free to watch that result here. Or just listen. It’s probably more fun to just listen to this one.
