(Direct download) 2012-09-04 – “FRAPS Test” – Guild Wars 2 Blackgate WvW. Recorded by Valkyrja Flame [RQ] of RageQuit Inc. Song info shown at the end of the video. No copyright infringements intended. This is NOT a complete video. This is a short clip for testing how well FRAPS works with Guild Wars 2 and Mumble at 1600×900. The test video simply shows me log in for the first time, create the guild, then load into WvW, no actual gameplay footage. My external hard-drive broke prior to launch (new one should be arriving some time this week) so this is …

(Direct download) 2012-04-27 – “Critical Hit” – Guild Wars 2 PvP video. Recorded by Valkyrie of RageQuit Inc. PvP Warrior, rifle-axe burst-crit build. Song info shown at the end of the video. This is PvP footage from the first Guild Wars 2 open beta weekend (for those who pre-purchased the game). Was extremely busy this week with school work so this video only contains FRAPS capture from a few hours of gameplay. The game ran pretty smoothly on my Dell XPS 17 laptop, but network lag was quite problematic (e.g. see the second fight against the charr warrior). There was …

(Direct download) 2012-04-27 – “Fly Away” – Guild Wars 2 PvP video. Recorded by Valkyrie of RageQuit Inc. PvP Warrior, rifle-axe burst-crit build. Song info shown at the end of the video. After making my first GW2 PvP video (“Critical Hit” v=S0kTqCy8un8), I realized I had enough leftover random footage of group PvP to make a second video. As of the moment, the “queue as group” functionality of PvP isn’t implemented yet, so this is just a few clips of me messing around in PvP, some of which with other RQ members. As for the song choice… the fluidity of …
Read More »Beats2 Prototypes
It’s done! For those who haven’t read the last post, “Beats2 Prototypes” is pretty much a series of demos/prototypes designed for the purpose of quantitatively comparing different user interfaces for large touch-screen devices – in this case, 7″ or larger Android tablets (you can still run it on your Android phone, but that’s not the target of the study). (Direct download) It’s also my senior design research project (i.e. not a polished final product) and an important precursor to Beats2, which will target BOTH small touch-screens (i.e. Android phones, iPhones, etc.) AND large touch-screens (i.e. Android tablets, iPads, Windows 8 …
Read More »BomberNome
For my ESE 519 ”Real-time Embedded Systems” (University of Pennsylvania, Fall 2011) final project, I worked in a three-person team with Monica Lui and Faqin Zhong on a hardware project dubbed “BomberNome”. The original project requirement was to make use of the ESE lab’s stash of monome boards in a creative and fun way. It turned out, however, there weren’t enough actual monome boards lying around (i.e. boards with each grid unit also connected to a switch and LED) but there were plenty of LED boards, so we instead decided to just hook up a bunch of these LED boards …

(Direct download) 2011-08-19 Dragon Nest NA-Argenta PvP- Welcome from RQ. Recorded by Majestyca, lvl 24 Mystic. Background music is “Bo Peep Bo Peep (Areia Remix)” by T-ara, remixed by Areia Creations, followed by “Run Devil Run (Robotaki Remix)” by SNSD, remixed by Robotaki. While I usually don’t listen to K-Pop, this music choice was inspired by this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lncpOpJEbGw Was going through my screenshots folder and found some video recordings from the first day DN-NA opened up PvP. Took the clips of group PvPing with RQ and stuck them together to make this video. Mystics don’t do well in solo …

To start off, it seems that sometime earlier this month, Beats hit 250k downloads on the Android Market! (this doesn’t include downloads from the Downloads page and other locations of course). So here’s the obligatory thank-you picture! While I’ve been quite busy over the summer with work, I did manage to get my hands on a new Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 running Honeycomb (3.1). Which means, yes, the next release of Beats will support tablets! Beats, Advanced Rhythm Game – 1.7a Tablet Demo [Android] (Direct download)

(Direct download) Perfect World International Harshland Territory War – Crimson vs Kylin 2011-07-30 for Fragrant Hills. Capture by Desiree, lvl 101 demon venomancer. Background music is DJ Max Portable CE song “Airwave (PV ver)” by ReX, followed by DJ Max Portable 2 song “Seeker” by M2U Instructions were chaotic at the beginning, stretching TW out far longer than it should have been. The consistent 1k+ ping didn’t help much either, but having a cleric that focus healed well did ^_^ After TW, sold some items in the AH so managed to refine my weapon from +3 to +6. For next …

(Direct download) Perfect World International Harshland Territory War – Crimson vs Kylin 2011-07-29 for Hidden Orchid. Capture by Desiree, lvl 101 demon venomancer. Background music is a remix of Touhou 10: Mountain of Faith’s BG music “Onbashira no Hakaba ~ Grave of Being” remixed by Demetori, followed by a remix of Touhou 07: The Perfect Cherry Blossom’s Yukari’s theme “Necrofantasia” remixed by Demetori. So yeah, I decided to go back to playing Desiree after all – too lazy to fully gear up a second veno. This week’s TW was a bit plain and straightforward so minimal editing was required. As …
