Star Wars - Dark Forces II: Jedi Knight

Your voice does not sound like what I would have expected 😂

Also the constant swearing at enemies sounds like how I do when I'm playing a game. I crack up my friends on ventrilo all the time because I'm always swearing at inanimate objects and enemies for being idiots.

I can't watch it now. But, consider hitting ctrl+enter to get it to go to full screen. Let me know if that works.

Also, you can adjust your desktop screen resolution to match that of the game to get it to go full screen. Turn on "auto-hide" for your start bar and make your desktop background black and it will make your video recording "appearance" more professional. That, or move the game screen to your second monitor (if you have one) where the start bar is not located.

Also, boobs.

No no, like, it ONLY runs this way through Steam. There's a series of hotfixes in the directory files I had to perform just to get it to run at all, and then only in this windowed mode on particular settings. It hasn't adapted well to newer OS's. I may try to monkey with it, but I think I'm stuck like this.

Thanks though.

I use push-to-talk on Vent. Otherwise my random grumbling would likely get me kicked from my WoW guild.

Oh, we all use push to talk too. However I use ctrl as my PTT button, which is also the general "show enemy names" button in GW/GW2, so I have it held down most of the time 😛

(also I'm the guild leader. So yeah. They're all as nuts as I am.)

I was able to get a better screen-to-game ratio by playing with my monitor's settings, though it's still only about 75% of the screen. Had forgotten about such tricks though. Thanks dudemon.

Working on the level 2 video now. Might have to split it into 2 parts, but I'm hoping I can cut it to under 20min.

So wait, what did you expect?

You're obviously from the Northeast. Accent oozing through. I'd say Jersey. Not too far from Atlantic City?

That's awesome.

Also, the gameplay is very very smooth. You have a decent computer or is the game so outdated that it would run that smooth on anything?

Honestly, you sound like a dude in his mid to late teens. I expected a more monotonous and boring voice over, too. 😐 I guess with all of your goofy posts, I should have known better.

Even at my most Eastern locale, it probably still would've been considered the Midwest, and certainly where I live currently. So no dice there, though that's funny that you think that. East coast, I might grant you in terms of how it sounds, but I've heard Jersey accents. Mine is nothing like it.

My computer is a friggin' rocket ship. There's nothing it can't run smoothly. Though yeah, the game itself is from about '97, so I'd imagine it doesn't take a high-end rig.

Though, ironically, the game itself started locking up randomly during my level 2 video. Like, down to 1-5 fps. Never had that happen with any game though, so I'm not sure what's up.

You sound just like every native tech I know that works out of our Atlantic City office. They don't have very thick accents. It's subtle. Nothing like you see on Jersey shore. It just oozes through on certain words like "but" and "byte".

Some older games, if you can trick them into running, do this. Nothing you can do about it unless it's a very popular game that is still patched like Mechwarrior III: enthusiasts still patch that game...which is hilarious.

The journey continues.

I'm going to start mixing up the format. I want to set some to music, speed it up, and remove my commentary.

{edit} for some reason it doesn't fill the entire youtube screen when I watch it here on KMC. Might be better to follow the link to the original?
