I think your channel is as good a find for me as that CD-ROM for you. About a month ago, a coworker said to me he'd bought an old film scanner and had no way of hooking it up to his computer. Talking to him about it I said "what you need is a Firewire card. I don't know who'd install one in a PC in 2024, or where you'd find one these days, but that's going to be the way". Like an hour later, your "installing a firewire card in 2024" video popped up in my recommendations. With a silent thank-you to the capricious eavesdropping deities of the algorithm, I linked him to the video, thought to myself "might watch that later", without adding it to my Watch Later, and then promptly forgot the video even existed. Today, I see you reviewing an obscure edutainment CD, so you've got a new subscriber, here!

@UpLateGeek19 күн бұрын
We were taught Macromedia Director in my high school computer class in the mid-late 90s, and we were given an open challenge for our end of year major project to make _something creative_ with it. Could have been an animation, an interactive website, a game, anything. I decided to make an interactive multi-media presentation about my favourite band at the time, The Smashing Pumpkins. I had downloaded tons of their music videos, and I thought I could make a UI to watch them, and also show pictures and information about the band and their music. The main "creative" part I came up with was the animated introduction, which basically had a bunch of pictures popping onto the screen in time with the beat of the intro of one of their songs. In the end I ran out of time working on it at school, so I installed a demo of Director on my home computer, which was much more powerful than the ones at school, and I got the timing to perfectly match the beat of the music. But when I ran it at school, the timing was way off because the machines were way under-powered for such animations. I did get marked down for the timing being off, even though it wasn't my fault, but I still got a good mark though, since it was technically animated and interactive. In hindsight, I should've scaled the images to the screen resolution before importing them, so Director didn't have to scale them on the fly, and I should've scripted them to appear at an exact time rather than depending on the timeline running at a specific framerate which didn't necessarily match the music. That said, it was a fun project, but I'm not that kind of creative, so it was mostly because it was about my favourite band.

This is an interesting concept, checking out games and interactive educational media most people will probably never investigate. I wish there’d been more information available about the company that produced the CD. I feel like people like hearing about older digital media companies, especially the ones that are defunct. I’ve kind of wanted someone to start doing a more software oriented concept along the lines of LGR’s weird tech series. This perfectly pulled that off. I personally feel it’d be interesting to do outdated or otherwise “weird” software that goes beyond games and interactive media, but that might just be a personal wheelhouse nobody else exists within.

That whole installing Quicktime thing at the start pretty much nailed it. I remember having Windows 3.11, and had just gotten a CD-ROM drive.. I'd bought a computer magazine that came with a CD-ROM that contained Quicktime, and a bunch of video files to show off what Quicktime could do, and the one that I remember the most was that old video of a news story where they blow up a whale that washed up on a beach! That's the first video I'd ever seen on a computer! That CD-ROM also had the Hock-a-loogie Beavis and Butthead game where you had to spit on stuff from the roof of the school! 🤣🤣

This was fun to see you explore! This definitely feels like a school curriculum, done over the course of a year or something, maybe they had multiple different save files set for different lessons or something!

Another masterpiece of a video! Loving this series so far! Really looking forward for more videos about obscure PC educational games from the 90s for sure lmao

Loved this! 🤩 I've always had a softspot for these old macromedia point and click games. They're all equally as clunky and delightfully 90s. MOAR PLS

Great video! This was a really fun flashback to 90s edutainment.

This took me back, I'm in the middle of a move, and I discovered the old end of year project I made for my Multimedia course I did back in 2002, I'm pretty sure we used that same version of Director!
