SPUD, lol, they didn't come out on the 12th. WTF, did you just make that up or are did they really say that??

 

[Idolon]

He asked the 8 Ball... :dozey:
I wouldn't exactly call that a reliable source.

[13.29] <sharp> Will the "new" hl2 media come out this day?

Only flaw I see there is that spaces aren't allowed in IRC, so it should be Gabe_Newell

 

[LoneDeranger]

First of all Gabe never goes on IRC. And even if he did, his name would be "gaben"

 

[Guest]

first of all it was a joke

second, I got you 2

 

[DigiQ8]

3rd, you suck
4th, go to hell

 

[3DDuL]

Guys, you heard anything about file format?
avi, mov, mpg?

 

[Kotik]

The video will be in bink format.

 

[Gordon Freeload]

The new videos will be in BINK format, probably as a self-running .EXE file.

Remember the Duke Nukem Forever Trailer from E3 2001 ?
That was a BINK video.

Most of the Blizzard trailers have been released in BINK format too.

 

[symptom]

Never heard of BINK format, but as long as it looks good, I don't care.

... does it look good?

 

[BWMASTER]

bink compresses the video insanely so people can download it at higher res.

Edit: Blue-shift trailer was also in bink .

 

[Gordon Freeload]

Here's the FileShack link to see what a BINK video looks like:

[JimmyTheGent]

bink certainly isn't as good as mpg, avi or mov

 

[BWMASTER]

No frame by frame analysis for us . Unless someone is willing to wait 2 days and extract the video into another format.

 

[3DDuL]

Aawww, that sucks =(
btw, all sites where you have to wait to downloads sucks too :flame:
Edit* **** fileshack just grab this link i found on filemirrors.com instead...

when you compile the bink into the exe you can give it advanced controls that allow more than just playing the video, hopefully valve does that, but i somehow doubt it.

 

[3DDuL]

You know where do get an extraction tool =\
edit: lol found that one too..
h**p://graphics.newfreeware.com/programs/825/

It extracts the warcraft bink movies in 3 seconds

 

[DimitriPopov]

Lol , I never saw that video , I know the game is never coming out , but 3Drealms is the top of comedy gaming. "When its done" , best part of the whole movie , I htink the HL2 movies are gonna look great.

 

[3DDuL]

I wonder how long we'll have to wait before the games start looking as sweet as blizzards movies *sigh*

 

[Cyp]

HL2 already looks like a real movie.... no matter how you look at it.... it goes as close as REAL people.... but as they said they made it REAL but not REALLY real u get the idea lol....

that works well, extracted the duke trailer, encoded it to Xvid and Divx, it was a snap.

 

[csmighty]

oh my GOD look at steam!!!!...it's "working"!!!!!!!

Jk i wish

 

[PSX]

see, just give them some time, fix these annoying bugs

 

[LoneDeranger]

m_pOwned .. LOL

 

[GLMinorThreat]

So... When is there next attempt to release the media?

 

[RabidMeatloaf]

July 16, 5342......

I'd guess by Midweek or so. I still think all those steam servers need to be nearly maxed out so we can get more bandwith...
