Friday fun, lets go!

[@FairLight1337]

Thanks. I hope you can see past the technical glitches.

[@Sumaleth]

Loved it. Interesting to see what 15 images someone chooses.

[@FairLight1337]

And also an expert choosing them. Glad you liked it!

[@FairLight1337]

Any picture you would have picked that was missing?

[@Sumaleth]

​@@FairLight1337 They were Prowler's picks so none were missing. There are no wrong answers. :) What I would pick is a touch question though! I'd start with RA too, for sure. The one Prowler picked is great, so either that or the screaming red face from Arte. Or the bird picture. They all encapsulate RA's originality. Jim Sach's Brilliance box art would be one. Craig Mullin's image called "Envy Chapter Screen" for Marathon was one of a series of images by Mullins that were transformational in the digital art movement. It's not pixel art but I'd have to mention it. :) I would find Waneella's best image. I would find Jubilee's best image. I'd include one of Kenneth Scott's compilation of skins he did for Quake 3 (the compilations are called "the Pixel years" on ArtStation). I'd pick something from Paul Robertson. I'd pick the best loading image from the Amiga game Agony, by Franck Sauer. I'd choose the title image from the Amiga game Lionheart, by Henk Nieborg. I'd have something by Bob Stevenson from his C64 days. Maybe the Sentinel eye? "The Game Is Apaw" by iLKke. I'll stop there, but there is a lot of great art out there. :)

[@Sumaleth]

Oh, and Dan Malone. Probably a screenshot from The Chaos Engine. :)

[@FairLight1337]

Hrm. That looks like a list that could be its own episode.

[@OLIV3R_YT]

Interviews like this are great, thanks!

[@FairLight1337]

I have bought a new laptop so next time it will be technically better

[@ScoopexUs]

Ra was awesome! IIRC he used a workstation and drawing tablet to do his excellent hand-drawn contours and layering for Amiga graphics. Nowadays he's only into high (print!) resolution artwork with massive detail. :O And lots more famous names as well. I love me some Ptoing and Mermaid GFX. :) There's a certain pic, the title picture for Cryptoburners Megademo 2 which I've always wondered about, crazy work on the fur, maybe a tip for Prowler? Regarding streaming from laptops, sometimes a hidden forced update can wreck USB / Wifi. Not the download, but the update already made to the OS but showing as "pending". So I update before I stream. (For Win11 24H2 the most recent one has problems so wait for the next.) The other major factor is not knowing which USB ports are 15Gbps or better, and which ports share the same hub (on the motherboard). USBTreeView will map which internal hubs are connected to which ports. This helped me distribute the cameras/capture cards across two powered 30Gbps external hubs. Other stuff like mics don't affect anything.

[@FairLight1337]

Thanks for that feedback. I went through a Windows update just before this, but I connected the USB A where I previously had problems connecting the GoPro on X2024.

[@michaelctanner]

Audio at the beginning intro sounds like you‘re „Living in a Box“ (remember that tune?😂)

[@FairLight1337]

This episode leaves a lot to wish for technically. I fear that I also didn't bring the mic close when recording the intro. (Living in a box with a group with the same name and the lyrics was also basically the same)

[@Demoscene0x0801]

@@FairLight1337 Like living in a cargo box? 😂 Great episode as usual

[@FairLight1337]

Thanks :)

[@strangerhmdrbsdlg9949]

Nice interview and cool Gfx selection (15 is better then 50 😜). Big up Prowler & Bacchus!

[@FairLight1337]

Big thanks!

[@rafapiasek6981]

You should run the sound through one of the AI tools to fix it. If there are good uses of AI technology, that would be the case.

[@FairLight1337]

Better still is if we make a proper capture. New laptop ordered today. My portable gear seemingly isn't up to par.

[@NNokia-jz6jb]

Your audio sounds different.

[@FairLight1337]

You mean the initial segment? I believe I forgot to fetch the microphone. It's folded away. Stupid me...
