Yes, it's been awhile video tease fans. And as some of you know, this 3rd installment of the Stroker Ace series will be the final one. I don't intend to do anymore video teases mostly because real-life things are taking much more of my time. With that said, my intention is to make this the best one of all the three and I figure it will be given all the things I've learned, all the great video teases that have been made and because I've been taking a lot of time to get the scenes I want in this one.

As far as format, it'll still be the standard 3 Stage x 3 rounds (9 rounds total) with a few twists here and there. Yes, Edge N' Ride will be there and no, there will be no Stroke Meter as is the case with all the Stroker Ace series.

As far as changes, I know some of you who don't like the high-pitched Stroke Beat will be interested to learn that I've lowered the pitch of the Stroke Beat now. Still messing with it, but the Stroke Beat in this Stroker Ace 3 sample is as low as it will go. I think it works okay but it might be a bit too low in tone to be heard clearly. Let me know.

The other thing is the Reward Round - I'm basically taking the format I used in the Stroker EDGE series and applying into Stroker Ace. That is, there's a Warm Up Round featuring 8 girls and those 8 girls will be the Reward Round girls. Watch the sample and let me know if the Reward format is clear as well as the rules overall.

Oh and I'm experimenting with a few different openings to the video - the one in the sample happens to be my favorite, mostly because these video teases are supposed to be like video games.

Last thing, as this is just a sample, it's also an unfinished sample - so no text instructions at all.

All constructive feedback/questions are welcome. Oh except asking for a torrent - I really don't think there's a need to make a torrent for a 34MB video file.

Enjoy and let me know what you think.

You guys really need to stop using all these bad file hosts. Upload it once to mega.co and be done with it. So much easier to upload, so much easier to download.

Thank you! I'm looking forward to this.

I just wanted to alert you to an issue when viewing your videos in VLC media player. The way you display text doesn't work properly in that player. I know that the intention is to show the first paragraph or so of text, pause a few seconds for the viewer to read, and then display the rest and give the viewer more time to read that. However, in VLC the initial text is displayed, but the remaining text doesn't appear until a fraction of a second before you change to the next page of text. So that last paragraph or two only flashes momentarily before disappearing.

I tried Windows Media Player and it works fine with that. So it's probably a bug in VLC or the codec they use. I just wanted to alert you to it in case there is some setting in your video rendering software that would allow it to work properly in all players. For your reference, the same problem with VLC occured in Stroker Ace 2, but not in Stroker Ace 1.

A really weird glitch, since the text is embedded in the video. I would think it wouldn't matter which video player you use. But I'm no video editing whiz, so who knows. It works fine on my VLC though. Maybe trash yours and install the newest version or something.

Just watched the sample video, looks like it will be a fun video when finished. In my opinion the "stroke beat" is fine at that pitch or perhaps a little higher. I know you are just experimenting with the levels, but the music was very low and overwhelmed by the stroke beat sound...but even with the music brought up I don't think the new pitch will make the beat hard to hear at all. Looking forward to seeing it when its done! Thanks for your hard work

I noticed the same behaviour here on my macbook with Mountain Lion and VLC v2.0.7, some texts are only visible for a split of a second. QuickTime Player is showing the texts as expected.

I experienced the same problem running VLC 2.0.8 on Windows 7. Again, Windows Media Player 12 works just fine.

In terms of the beat sound, I find I can hear it fine. What is hard to hear is the music when compared to the beat sound. Maybe bump up the volume of the music with respect to the beat sound.

Your reward format seems clear enough from the sample and instructions. The first four reward round girls shown in the sample are all stunning. It's going to be hard to pick a favorite. Looking forward to it! Your previous works are among some of my favorites.

I, for one, really miss the real-time stroking videos you did in some of your earlier works.

Looks good so far, the main think I would say is watch the beat sync, in the hd remix it was perfect but in 2 and in this sample there are some places where it goes out. I don't think it was out by much but as a musician when something is out like that it really bugs me. not trying to force the issue, I'm sure the video will be good regardless but to me that is one thing that has stopped several CH video here being great

Thanks guys for the reminder. I actually figured it out - the video editing software I'm using saves the MP4 files in some weird video codec. I just have to remember to encode it in a standard AVI format and it'll work fine.

Okay good - I did make the Stroke Beat louder in the sample as I was worried that the lower tone of the Stroke Beat might be a little harder to hear. Glad to know that's not the case, especially as I have some good tunes planed in this one.

Thanks Zeretal for the feedback and totally know what you mean. I wasn't super "precise" with the sample, but will do my best to ensure the syncing between the rhythm and Stroke Beat is on point.

Thanks everyone that has given feedback. If you've got more, let me know.

Any idea of a release date? not to rush you or anything im only curious

Posted: **Tue Sep 10, 2013 8:07 pm**

I love the idea of the reward round and choosing your girl at the beginning of the video, however, and I don't know if it's been mentioned before, I think it might be helpful to give the girl's name, or even just assign her a number at the beginning of each clip. Something to better identify her when the reward round comes around. In the original video you used this kind of reward idea in I had trouble differentiating between some of the girls, especially because it was kind of unclear as to when the warm up actually ended. I could have sworn there were other girls featured in the warm up round that didn't have a reward clip but maybe I was wrong. It just might be easier to have some kind of identifier to know for sure that it's the girl you chose. When I'm in the moment, jerking off, focusing on the content on screen, trying to last till the end, it doesn't help to have to think about anything else.

It's just a small thing that can mean the difference from an "A" video to an "A+" video, and if this is going to be one of your last videos I'd want it to be the best video you can make. Go out on top.

FWIW, I'm experiencing the exact same behavior with the text in VLC 2.0.8... in both Win7 and Win8

In fact, I noticed the same behavior in the previous installments of Stroker Ace, but never bothered to mention it. --- but since you're asking for feed back, and since others have mentioned it, I figured I'd chime in here as well.

Incidentally, I have a media PC connected to a 55inch HDTV... that's how I watch these. :D
I don't use any alternate video player, just VLC.

I'm not sure why it has the glitch, as you say- it's video.
