Maze - Feature

[Bliccer]

Maze - a 15 minutes long cpm movie closing a gaming chapter in the life of a german defrag player who started defragging in 2005.

Movie download should be prefered to youtube streaming, since latter doesn't support 50fps.

With this movie two defragger, Maze and Bliccer, want to say thank you and goodbye to the community.
This piece comes in all kind of flavours:
- the movie including a standard name/time hud
- or topviews of the maps for orientation
- or the COMPLETEPACK, including the topviews as a second video track, input subtitles, extra clips, all redesigned maps (you can also use for your own demos) and maze' demos.

Of course the author recommends to download the completepack and starting the full experience by reading the info file inside.
Every version also includes the good old "ingame only" audiotrack (rightclick in vlc, audio, audiotrack 2)

Very impressive editing, sweet looking map-remakes and overall just a very enjoyable watch. And that topview thing was just awesome.

Thanks for creating such a fine piece of art!

You guys will be remembered!

What else is there to say

Great job!

I downloaded both complete pack and topview versions. And I prefer the topview version on a single monitor, because it is new and interesting.

I wonder how much work was spent to the topview / 3d route highlights, AND the subtitle keypresses. Must have been a damn lot.

The movie looks smoothly and clear, and has a style of its own. A great addition to my collection.

Kinda said you say 'goodbye' this way. But 'goodbye' is not 'farewell'. No-one has quitted defrag that easily.

Thank you so much for all your comments =)
The topviews needed around 8 hours of work, when all the screenshots were taken; the subtitles have been created during render times (probably a day?).

Saying goodbye seems pretty hard, indeed. Two days ago, when I watched some of the old tricking vids I came across an account name a lot of people in here might be familiar with: [bsh]thrshr. He uploaded some of his old demos onto youtube... and actually... I am thinking about doing (again) one last video, this time including my demos. But it probably will be a short 3 minutes, first-person only, no transitions at all clip. At the moment I can't do anything anyway, since I have too much going on, away from games and the computer. And for my idea I first need to recover my files from an old hdd...
