Hey everyone, part 2 is up and ready to go!

I was having some pretty serious issues with the way the pictures in this one were getting compressed, so I went ahead and created an HD version for TeaseMe. I don't prefer the left/right format generally, but I think the clarity of the pictures are a big factor to the effectiveness of this tease, so I wanted to give the people the chance to see what I was seeing when putting this together.

Secrets Part 2 TeaseMe HD mega.co.nz *Fixed

I will answer everyone's comments soon, I just wanted to get this link out there as soon as possible. :-)

Edit 2: Okay, the link has been fixed so that all the pictures should work correctly in the new download. There's no color formatting in the text, but since I don't make extensive use of it I'll not worry too much about that for now.

Edit: Okay, well it seems my inexperience with TeaseMe has led me to release a version that doesn't exactly work. :lol: The first part of the tease seems pretty messed up, but it looks like it works fine once you "Skip to Tease". I'll leave it up in case anyone knows how to fix it or just wants to play through the tease part in TeaseMe, but I may have hit the wall of my expertise with this format. Apologies.

With that said, if you want constructive criticism, I thought that the same pictures were on too long... more changes of photos would intensify the feeling.
PinkDKB wrote:Someone mentioned that the picture doesn't change very often and while I agree that slightly more changes would be a benefit, it can be hard to get access to sets like this.
It definitely can be hard to get access to sets like this. As a rule I only use promo sets when making teases. Usually I can find a couple different promos of the same set and get 25-30 pictures out of it. That's been much more difficult with this model, as all the promo sets I've found have been identical. She's too good not to use for the role though, so I'm working the story as best I can around the limited photos I have.
PinkDKB wrote:The only notable criticism I can offer is that, contrary to what other people have said, I don't like the autotimer of most of the story. I don't know if I read much more quickly than is average, but the wait timer for every little sentence was incredibly painful to me - especially as there were so many consecutive sentences. An option to continue without waiting for the timer would have allowed me to read the text and not sit around waiting afterwards.
jackstock wrote:Agreeing with Pink.... I always find that 1885 teases have way too long of a wait time on each picture.
such impatience, I know.
Ironically enough I'm right there with you about not liking to wait too long between slides on a tease. One of the things about the format I created is that it takes control out of your hands for a very long time in order to create the illusion of constant dialogue.

The general speed I use has been fine-tuned over the course of the teases I've done, even if it doesn't seem like it sometimes. :lol: The pace I use is aimed more at the part of the viewer who's stroking, not at the part of him who's reading. It's not really meant to move along at reading speed, it's meant to let the conversation have flow and tension. I try not to ever let it drag, but I always want anticipation and apprehension to be a part of the flow.

I don't know if there's a perfect solution for people who just don't like waiting for words to change, but if my teases moved at a perfect reading clip I think they would lose half their tension.

Thanks a lot, rockies! I'm just sad to say this looks like one of those times I won't be able to fit a character's wife into the storyline. :lol:

The problem is the file names in the tease are x-better.jpg and the correct file name is x_better.jpg

Who downloaded can just rename the files changing the " _ " for the " - "

Good find avatar, thanks a lot. I fixed the file names and re-uploaded the rar file above. All the pictures should work now. Hopefully. :lol:

Your wiriting is superb! And I do agree that the automatic change of slides and even of WORDS adds to the experience. I sooooooo like the style where you add only half a sentence or even just words to put emphasis on each ... and ... every ... one ... of ... them! ;)

Looking forward to every new part. (And of course urgently awaiting them, as I will play along once again...)

Keep up the good work!

If someone wants to make one, they're welcome to. I'm not going to make one personally because I still prefer the Nyx format, I just couldn't handle how the images came out in the second part after they were compressed.

Thanks a lot, max. I really like to add tension and emphasis to my dialogue, and that's one of the ways I do it. I'm glad it comes across well, because I really like the effect too. :smile:

I'll admit, the forced waiting and automation is part of the effect.
works much better in the online version though. I wish TeaseMe or GuideMe had the option to make the text on bottom. so much better.

I feel you, jack...that's one of the main reasons I don't really use TeaseMe.

You have a nice pace! :) Thanks for not making the time between parts so long. (Especially for people that play along when they come out) I know it is not always easy to put so much time into such a thing. Your work is very much appreciated!

I will do this one tonight... More time to build up tension :)

Pretty sure we wouldn't lol. This and the Ruined by Sisters won't get boring however long you make them, both brilliant series.
