GRS BuoyRepair Demo video now on YouTube

Post by Diziet Sma »

After finding that YouTube could not cope with the demo video made by Svengali, I contacted Svengali and he was kind enough to supply me with the raw footage he'd used to make the demo. I succeeded in re-creating the same video Svengali had produced, and (after some tussles figuring out which compression codec gave the best results), I have uploaded the result to YouTube. I was able to locate and use the same mp3 as Svengali chose for his demo, and I've inserted a credit for the music in the final credits scene. Other than that though, it is as close to the original as possible. Enjoy! :D

The video can be seen here. I highly recommend viewing in full-screen for best effect.

It's quite nice and a good demonstration of what Buoy Repair is all about.
