It might come back to bite me in the ass someday if I don't take these precautions. I hope my pursuit of this ideal is not becoming a grievance to you. If it is, then I most sincerely apologize. Having my actions negatively affect the status quo would make me feel guilty.
I understand, it's not a problem at all.

Hey, everyone!

I know it's asking a lot, but if you're willing to switch platforms, Riot looks promising.
(my apologies, links are broken atm)

Code: Select all

https://about.riot.im
Riot looks like a Discord clone, but with a focus on user privacy. It's available as a desktop, mobile, and web application.

I was able to make an account for it without any hassle. Let me know what you think about it.
My original Cock Hero songs can be found here:

Indeed! It looks a lot like Discord. Also:
You can also host your own open source server for complete control, or just use a free public one
That's awsome! :yes:
Cock Hero Database (on the ice atm) - https://www.ch-db.club/ - :gathering:
[APP] Cock Hero Slideshow Player - Thinking about a script feature for [APP] Cock Hero Video Player :icecream:
If your video is too fat, there's a solution!
Spoiler: show
The generated output of your video editor may be bloated, too big for not any significant benefit. One thing you can do is use HANDBRAKE with the H.264 (x264), RF18 Constant Quality and Web Optimized / Fast Start options, all other options by default. You'd be surprised how smaller the video becomes, without any impact to the quality.
:yes:

For future reference, here's the original Hanbrake post by Eriol:

Interesting for further details about the process.
:thumbsup:
So many projects to kill, so little time. :-)

I thought I was going to finish up my act 2 round yesterday, but I've been having some of technical difficulties of late. The audio thumbnails that I've been basing all of my cuts/timing around have become desynced from the actual audio, without warning. To counter that, I proceeded to generate an image out of my beat sounds and import it as a video clip to use as a visual sync. Unfortunately, that image is, presumably, too large and crashes the program.

I'm no expert when it comes to video editing and was wondering if you guys know of some better ways to synchronize cuts between the audio and video? I am using Kdenlive for this project, if you were wondering. In the past, I used Blender, and the generated beats image would work flawlessly. The only problem I had with Blender was that the workflow was significantly slower than in Kdenlive.

Other than all of that, it's coming along nicely. :-)

I don't know how Kdenlive works but in premiere there is a mark function which will drop a marker at a location. This key for me is M and I just press M where ever I want a cut. The clips snap to those marks.

I would suggest the use of a VPN then. :yes: Discord won't block it.
Discord is spyware. They say so in their ToS.
Dafuq? I use Discord all the time.

I came up with my own syncing solution. Kdenlive has something equivalent to markers known as guides. I just spent a few hours writing a python script that places guides on the timeline with respect to the song's BPM and the project's FPS, and it's working quite well. :thumbsup:

The first beat of the measure is colored red, while the rest are colored blue.

Whew. Missed my own deadline.

I'm about to go on a trip for a week. I will work on putting the video together when I get back.

So far we have I believe 7 or 8 rounds ready. If anyone else wants to contribute, I am extending the deadline to August 2nd.

Seeing that you've extended the deadline has inspired me. I wrote a cool song and have some neat ideas for it, so I'll try to make a round for act 3. :-)

Hi, Sgt_Alex!

At this point, all rounds have been tentatively rendered with beat meters added to them. Then, each creator confirmed the correctness of the beat meter in their rounds. I don't have access to the Discord server, so I'm in the dark as far as details go, but if all things go as planned, it should be released "before Classic WoW" (August 27th). :yes:

If you have further questions regarding Softcore Collaboration 2, send them to the project manager, fragrantEmulsion.

Thank you for clarification, High_Octane :)
And again, all creators - thank you for your efforts, first episode was spectacular, one of the best CH that I've ever seen (I'm sure that many agree with me on that). Always a pleasure to have qualified soft core video.

Great work, lads.

All rounds are in, except for one more... maybe.

...and it is looking really good I have to say.

All what is left to do now is intro, ending, and switch between rounds.

Depending on how hard FragrantEmulsion want to hit the forge, the project could come really quick...

Yeah we are close to release. I just need to figure out what to do about the final round.

Still need someone to do a final round? I'd be happy to jump in again.
