So do any of you guys have Steelhorses? if so what is it?

I've got a 2000 Kawasaki Vulcan EN 500.  It may not be a big bad Harley, but hey I just graduated college last year and it's all I can afford, and it's my baby and I love it.  And I think it's pretty badass nonetheless. 

And here's adding some reall irony to this argument.  Since I joined here recently I've been trying to decide what restorations to get, and after reading through tons of threads and looking at all the edits available, I've decided to get Puggo's, Ady's, and your V3's :p   Each has its own different, and equally awesome approach, so why resign myself to just one?  Can't wait till either of you are finished!

Hey nothing wrong with a Kawasaki, I am not a hard nosed Harley Davidson ONLY type of guy, my first bike to learn on was a Kawasaki Vulcan 750, I needed a small cruiser type bike to learn on, and man do I wish I would have kept that little thing, it was a nice shaft driven bike, and great on gas, my 2007 Harley Davidson Fat Boy uses almost the same amount of gas as my big 4x4 RAM LOL, but I still can't wait to get it back next week, all ready to go for the Spring.

OH, and I am glad you are interested in the V3 DVD's, and I to will be grabbing Puggo's new DVD, hell yea, the sample looked damn cool, and I am sure I will grab Ady's to just to have it, but truth be told, it is hard for me these days to watch ANY version of the SW movies because I have seen them, and heard them, waaaaay to much lately with all these projects I have been doing, so once this latest is finished, I probably will not watch another SW movie until the official Blu-ray Saga Set comes out, OH crap, I will have to watch my Blu version for testing, darn I forgot about that.

Yes and all those are fair points, but changes are changes, I NEVER specifically said you were a "hypocrite" now did I? no I did not, and GL can do with his movies whatever the hell he wants, he owns them, not us, and as far as the OT goes, we are not even talking about that, everyone already knows, and have known, that these are not going to happen(hence all the damn projects I am doing) fact is fact, and yes, some people in his thread like the SE's as well as his(Ady's vision) but some of those people in that thread bitch up a storm and call for GL's head because of the changes he made(remember they are his films) but then turn around and praise Ady as the SW GOD because of ALL the changes he is making, now THIS is what I find rather amusing, and at least some in the thread understood where I was coming from.

I am not knocking Ady or his vision of things, that is his baby, it is the people that I mentioned that want GL's head, but then praise someone else for doing radical changes.

*edit- I didn't really start getting riled up until someone accused me of calling everyone in the thread a hypocrite, which I did not.

Trimming separate LD sides to make one AVI?
Time

If you have watched the movies enough you will know what is right, and if not check out your VHS, if you are using VDub just start your file and set your start point, then go to the end of that file, which would be LD side1 right? and set your end point, then choose in VDub how you want to save that file with what compression, I use Lagarith, then save that portion, that would be side 1, do the same for all other sides and then join them up, now you have a completed movie for further processing.

Just make sure you have a lot of HD space.

If I was able to get AviSynth to show up in Windows XP Pro to use it I probably would have started there but every time I try to install it ..... it is nowhere to be found for me to access.  I got lost on the issue and gave up.

Thanks Moth3r

It is not an exe file, it is a command line program, open up notepad and make a script up, that is how you will use avisynth, once you get the hang of the basics it really does open the door to some really cool stuff.

Teaming up? Sure, big guy. We're all in league against you.

I'll say it one last time, I don't care if you hate adywan's edit or any edit. I love it, I've never denied it. I also love Puggo's restorations (which I just watched the other day) yours and ABC's Imperial Edition of ESB, and DarthEditous' Ep IV hybrid (which was the the first SW fanedit I ever watched). My problem was with the comparison you made between those who didn't like the Special Edition changes and those who do like faneditors' changes. It's a bad comparison and I called you out on it. You got all bent out of shape and started crying about why I singled you out instead of Jeyl, and you don't pay attention to threads on this board but you've spent more time and effort here than me by your own admission. You just basically turned into a little baby because I took the time to disagree with you. I had no idea that only dark_jedi is allowed to be all "brutal honesty" over everything.

You're a hypocrite and a baby if you can't take what you apparently give out here all the time. Is that sugarless enough for you?

NOW this is a post, FINALLY LOL, you grew a pair, for the record, I NEVER said I hated Ady's Edit, it is just not my cup of tea, to many crazy alterations, like I have said, no different than what GL did with the SE's, deny the difference all you want, it is the same.

Puggo's works are, well what can you say, FANTASTIC!!!

Once again you say I said ALL, obviously you can't read anything in () most, not all.

Again I am a baby for what I am doing, by what you are typing and toting, doesn't that pretty much put you in the same boat LOL.

You say I am a hypocrite, don't think so, not me, sorry to disappoint.

Thank you

You're right. The adult thing to do would be to ignore you completely, but I'm bored.

Me to, So you, twister, and rockin, teaming up on me, this is to funny, this whole damn thing started because I agreed with Jeyl in Ady's thread LOL, but it does not bother me at all, fire away guys, hell you guys can even wonder over to my project threads and post and protest over there to, that way we don't have to just stay here in this thread.

Nah I'm done. You've just established what I originally thought, which is you are egging people on to argue with you.

But you still haven't answered my question.

I think we all get that you don't care about what you say... We get that. I must ask though, more simply, what makes you think it's OK to be like that and still get away with it? Someone is always going to take offense. You are literally inviting people to.

Moth3r if you are reading this, if the rules don't apply to dark_jedi because he's a friend then fair enough - your call, as you are the boss. But, I will say it seems a tad unfair to other people - assuming that is the case with the rules.

I'd actually prefer it if we could all just get along, but I get the vibe it's impossible with you dark_jedi.

Egging on arguments is not what I have done(not deliberately) see now I feel that some of you have, and NOT caring about what I say, that is not right, I will say what I mean, I will not sugar coat, if something looks like shit or sounds like shit, that is precisely what I am going to say, hell I even say it when my own projects look and sound like shit, so not sure what you are getting at, reading more into what was typed I am sure.

and you calling out to Moth3r like a little tattle tale, well quit frankly, how does that make you look now? I have broken no rules, we are in the off topic my Friend, in case you didn't read that.

I to prefer it if we all got along, but some make that hard to do, that is why we have an ignore feature here, what the hell, use it, I get along with 99% of the people here, but if I get called out, sorry I am going to respond, I get called on for agreeing with another member, then I get accused of calling people "hypocrites", then I respond by assuming all that are throwing that out are AK's, I was not at any point dis respecting Ady's decisions on HIS project, it is just very funny how you better not dis agree or else.

So rockin, did you PM Moth3r?

I can't wait to see the quality of ESB and JEDI.  Especially the Asteroid sequence in Empire.  

That reminds me, I would love to know what the special effects sequences look like in these Blu Ray versions.  Other than the beginning of Star Wars, I don't think we've seen much else.

I know you're swamped with renders right now.  Just a screen cap or two would be awesome.

 

The Asteroid sequence in Empire looked friggin Great on my set up, I was actually surprised by this, I thought for sure it would not look to hot, I am glad I was wrong, but this is my opinion only.

Yea this went real far, Oh well, at least I tried.

Looks like there are others here that can't accept brutal honesty either, that is the way I am, and always have been, I sugar coat NOTHING when I give my opinion, and I really could care less if I "rub" someone the wrong way, people that know me like how honest I am, I do not believe in using "kid gloves".

rockin said:

d_j, not to be direspectful (I like your work and appreciate the projects you are doing), but honestly dude why do you keep popping into threads stirring things up? In the V8 thread you are questioning why people like V8 over GOUT and then reasoning that with "I really think most people that are saying that the JSC set LD captures look great are not viewing them on a large screen HDTV." Which I must say, why does it even matter? In one of Harmy's threads you thought Harmy was implying that PAL was superior to NTSC when he didn't. These are just some of the examples.

We know you have an opinion on things - everyone does. It's the way you go about it that is really rubbing people the wrong way. I know you mean well, but I just don't understand it and neither do other people (not everybody) but it's becoming more frequent as of late.

We had this discussion before in the preservation section, and I'm not getting on my high horse, I just want people to get along - as we ALL do bring something to the table as a community, even if it is just suggestions and ideas to the topic. Some do more than others yes, and your work has been noted. Let's not turn this all into a "I've done more for this community than you" argument, to warrant an opinion.

 

Sorry Ady.

You know I can't really respond to you now because Super M will delete posts like he loves to do, as well as ban, so who knows what will happen, but I do have something to say to you, but I won't because this is not off topic, so Super M, delete away!

With all the arguing going on with a certain member, I almost forgot I have a very small update, the rendering of Jedi has started, by Monday ALL video will be rendered and encoded along with the audio, so hopefully once I figure out these Blu Menu's(which are friggin hard as hell) I should have all 3 done soon, maybe I will figure out a way to upload Star Wars V3 & Blu-ray first, then do both ESB versions and so on,not really sure yet.

So how is it going dude? let's talk Community, and Community projects, and sharing of said projects, I have not traded in a while now, so I was really hoping to maybe trade for some of your projects, or do you have them somewhere already for download somewhere, if so could I have a link?

Thank you very much for your time, take care.

LOL says the kid who downloads fanedits he doesn't like.

Damn right, I have been a member of this community for a very long time, I have made a lot of friends, and I do a lot of trading, some really, really love Fan Edits, so wouldn't it make sense to have them for trade? or to upload? because believe it or not, I used to upload a shitload for people at Myspleen(Star Wars and NON Star Wars projects, others as well as my own) my record stands, it is all there, what is yours? do you even have one? like I said, we should carry on over in the off topic, so hopefully I will see you there and we can discuss who and what we are there.

Later

LMFAO! me a kid, sure, sounds good to me, just continue praying to a dead young Lucas like you said in a different thread, and then go seek some serious psychiatric help, because you need it.

1 more thing, maybe we should go to the off topic section so we can really let go, just a thought.

I made my point clear. I don't care if you like or don't like the changes, but you made a lousy argument comparing people who do like these changes to people who don't like GL's changes. They're two different situations. If you don't like ass-kissers, don't get so offended when someone doesn't kiss yours.

LOL, and who are you? what do you, or have you ever brought to the table? anything? and for the record, I have no AK's and I am not an AK, never have been, and VERY proud of it, but I admire your honesty at admitting to being one, +1 for you!

Obviously you STILL can't read between the (), bust some got what I was saying, apparently you just don't understand.
