Stream archives in process
I've started to create an archive containing all of my old streams from back to the absolute early days, on up into the modern kuoushi streams. This will likely be a very large undertaking and won't be finished anytime remotely soon, but I feel like the end result will be worth it to me at least. These streams cover a lot of my personal history and a bunch of different time periods in the life of kuoushi, plus a dickton of games and memories.
We've also been slowly continuing our Thi3f streams. Making progress, stealing stuff, and not being as awful as we could be at the games. I do think I've fucked myself over in the hub world though. Tune in this weekend to enjoy that idiocy.
Steady as she goes
The site has slowly started to take shape again. I have our totally cool forums going which are absolutely a thing that will be super busy and not just kind of there for my own amusement. We've got proper stream embeds on the front page, which honestly is pretty okay. I'd like to make the embeds stay there even when people are offline, but that's $50 I'm not super into spending right now. We've got a cute little not super effective widget showing the status of our Sven Co-op server at any given moment, assuming it hasn't crashed. User registrations are opened back up, too.
Oh, and I suppose there have been a few more kuoushi streams lately. That's pretty cool too. Just kicking around some games that are fun, and with a whole new layout and vaguely interactive elements for viewers. More to come on that latter front, but it's coming together.
All in all, things are looking up for the kuoushi world. Not too sizable at the moment, but hey, we're just getting back into the swing of things.
We’re back, but only just
As I'm sure not many people noticed, the kuoushi.com site went down for about a week or two. Well, that's done now and the site is back up, but it won't have nearly as much on it as it used to because we're going to mostly start again from scratch to try to get it to a nice place. That's not going to be a thing that happens very soon, but I've been working on a lot of stuff to try to get back into streaming old HL games and Sven Co-op at least once a week or so, so hopefully that'll be a thing to look forward to in the future.
Whatever happens, at least this is here, right?
24 Hour Stream Soon!
Time: Starts at 12am CST on the 15th, ends at 12am CST on the 16th
So I've got a 24 hour stream coming up and I need some ideas for what to play. A theme of games would be nice, but mostly I want to nail down the games so we can get some light promotion going on. Things like having people with followers able to make some tweets or talk about it on Facebook or whatever. That's hard to do when we don't have any idea what I'm going to be playing. This is all pretty short notice as is usual for anything Kuoushi-related, but I'd like to get some ideas going in this thread.
My Steam List: http://steamcommunity.com/id/kuoushi/games?tab=all
Things I can emulate: PS2 a few games, would need testing, PSX, NES, SNES, Gameboy, GBA, Dreamcast haven't tested, Genesis, N64 and other things from these eras of games.
Anything that requires me to download something will have to be done way in advance so I can test it.
Suggestions are helpful. Games, themes, whatever. An example of a theme is the Megamanathon. Just play Megaman 1-whatever.
Suggest away!
Edit:
Games so far in kind of order:
Megaman X4PSX
Daikatana
An Untitled Story
Vertiginous Golf
Megaman X5 PSX
Prison Architect
Dota 2
Dustforce
Shadow Warrior if it streams well
Beast Boxing Turbo
Axelay SNES
Megaman X6 PSX
Not all of these games are guaranteed to make it in as we are limited by time, but I'll do my best to get most of them going and beaten. Also if we run out, we'll improvise! Feel free to suggest more in here during the stream. Anything on Steam that I don't have installed most likely won't make it, but SNES/NES games should be no issue."
Improving delay on Twitch
Go here: http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager09.html
Click the checkbox next to Disable P2P uplink for all.
You're done. That should improve your Twitch delay by a variable amount. Generally it'll be lower, but we haven't seen how it goes for everyone yet. Improved it by ~10 seconds for me when I tried."
