Zer0Squared

Ahhh...ok.  No worries. :)

The movie itself looks amazing.  Great job as usual, Harmy!

Hey Harmy...just curious...but during your extended credits at the end, is it supposed to loop the last 10 secs of the credits music over and over again as the music portion of this segment?

At least it does on mine while viewing it with VLC.

That's great news Harmy.
I'm interested; however it seems n00bs cannot Search that usual place.
Any old-timer could send me a URL to that thread?
I'd post it on usenet to show my gratitude...

 PM sent

It's downloadable!  :P

 But it's against Myspleen rules. :(

Ok - should be all good now.  Sorry for the bad first attempt.  Please restart your downloads.  :)

I don't do this much - gimme a break. LoL

It's downloadable!  :P

OK!  It's up on the Spleen.

Enjoy, folks. :)

Ok.  Let me zip it all up into one file and I'll throw it up to Spleen.

Standy by.

What? Well, v2.5 will probably be released eventually but not any time soon. First I want to do Jedi.

 Sounds great!

And that is actually why I stopped by the thread. The newsletter almost made it sound like V 2.0 is almost a temporary version, with 2.5 on its way soon.

Sorry for the confusion, guys.  But yeah, the MKV of 2.0 is next and then probably ROTJ 2.0 - then, hopefully, Harmy will backtrack and put out a 2.5 for these as well to catch up to Ep IV.

But in any event, the newsletter was sent to notify everyone of the AVCHD release with the MKV coming shortly.

Thanks, John.  Finally found it. :)

Newsletter has been sent to all 963 subscribers. :)

(ignore subject line of 'July' update) :P

It's up on paradox now! If someone put it up on the spleen, I'd be grateful :-)

@Feallan: I have 8.0, which I believe is the latest version.

 Now, is this 2.0 or 2.1?  :)

The 35mm stereo mix was most likely the first to be completed, since it contains the least number of sound effects compared to other versions, and may have required the most testing in order to ensure its technical compatibility.  However, it and the 70mm six-track would have been created at virtually the same time, since the actual original mix was not the stereo version itself, but a four-track master from which both the stereo and 70mm mixes were derived.

The stereo would have been created by downmixing the four-track into a matrixed LtRt, with peak limiting applied to fit it into the reduced headroom of the optical format, and the panning width reduced somewhat to avoid excessive crosstalk between channels when upmixed again during playback.  The 70mm version contained the four discrete channels but with unrestricted dynamic range, and with the addition of bass content in the other two channels generated by a subharmonic synthesizer in order to bolster the impact of explosions and spaceship flybys.  A very small number of additional sound effects (four, by my count) were added to the 70mm that are not present in the 35mm stereo, but for all intents and purposes they are virtually the same mix, simply optimized for different presentation formats.  Listening to either will serve you well, depending what kind of sound system you have.

 ....what he said.  :)

Oh, no no no. I'm putting a cap on the donations! I nearly have the money to cover the cost of the new mobo now and there isn't anything else I need for this project at the moment! Plus I need to finalize the credits.

LoL!  Good deal.

Oh, no, they are just in the order in which the donations came. I will probably try to put them into alphabetic order. Anyone know how to do this easily? I have them as a simple .txt file.

Copy them into a spreadsheet program, sort A-Z. Should work. If you don't want to do it, just PM them to me.

 Psh, young people these days...

sort acb.txt > abc.txt

I sorted them for him real quick and sent them back.  No worries.  He only has to add any new ones at this point.  Or, if a lot more donations roll in for him (cough cough) I can re-sort them later.  :)

If you have Paypal, just go there and "Send" an amount to Harmy's paypal email address.

Much appreciated guys - it seems the returning of the broken motherboard won't work out (they found that some of the pins on the CPU bed were slightly bent and tey said I must have done it and gave it as a reason to not refund me for the mobo, even though I'm convinced it can't possibly be what was causing the problems, which didn't appear until I put in the additional RAM), so this will help a little to cover the cost of the new one.

 You're most welcome.

And I don't know where or who you're getting your motherboard from but that sounds like a pretty shady reason to not replace it.  If it worked at one time and all you did was add RAM, you didn't touch the bed after that.  Anyway, any reputable dealer would only need to ship the board back to the manufacturer and get a credit - it's not like they're losing money on it. (sigh)

Don't feel bad.  I had to wait til I could afford it myself and just sent him a donation.  Like I said to him in my message, "Better late than never!"

Keep up the great work, Harmy!

P.S. My name will be easy to add.  Just put me at the bottom. :)

Didn't think it would be as difficult to rank as it sounds, I guess I was assuming it was all noted down in a spreadsheet with the converted values to your local denomination (if that's what paypal shows you on the receiving end) next to names...  A text file of names you'd have to match up to donations in multiple currencies this long after the fact, yeah, that'd be a hassle.  It was just a thought, stemming from my wondering how my donation stacked up to others, more comparison than competition, really.

 Yeah, I agree with Harmy on this one.  Showing what each person donated would be slapping it in the faces of the ones who either didn't send in a comparable amount or couldn't afford to.  I know that's not your intentions (at least I hope not) but some people would take it that way.

Alphabetized is probably best. (send me the file, Harmy, if you still need that done)

OK, how's this:

 Wow, that's muuuch better! :)

 I can do that for you.  Just PM it to me.

Yeah, that's what I was doing before.

Glad you found a name error.  I wasn't checking for those at the time.  Maybe I'll re-scan it later and see if I see any others. :)

Just proofed the whole thing on my end and did not see any other misspellings so, nice catches n00b.  I also verified that there was a space after each comma when multiple names were listed on the same line for a skill. (this was not reported, it was just something secondary to look at while I was scanning)  I kept uncovering the overlay to check the GOUT just to be sure.

Nice job, guys!

OK, assuming I haven't missed anything else. I've uploaded a new PSD and will send you the link via PM, Harmy. Just a second...

 Hey Jonah, can you PM the link to the PSD?  I can take a look as well.  I have PS installed and work with it daily and I'm also a stickler for grammar and spelling.

 Sooooo much better!

Harmy said:

Zer0Squared, you're getting a mention in the main credits :-)

 Whaaaaat??  Wow, I'm honored, sir.

All I can say is, I'll keep doing what I'm doing as long as you keep doing what you're doing. :)

Pretty cool!  

But I'm going to unofficially add my name to the Honorable Mention list when I send this out in the next Harmy Newsletter since next month will be the one year anniversary for it.  :P  LoL

920 subscribers and growing!!  Woo Hoo!
