What Happened?

Some of you may be wondering what happened to the Borg clips and the soon coming Klingon clips. Let me clear up the confusion: No, they have not been removed for copyright infringement, but rather, removed to be renovated. I've received a few complaints about the volume level of the clips. This is not the sole reason why I removed them, but it was also because it is difficult to create interactivity. The major problem I had with them is when the decision changes (see: "Your father cheats"), etc. So, hopefully, when I'm done, the changes should be:
  • Changing choices.
  • Loading only the "selection" part of the video after having to try over again.
  • Increased volume so you won't have to increase your computer's volume to hear it.
I hope this makes sense. I don't know of when all of the clips will be up again, but I'm going to begin correcting and re-uploading hopefully sometime next week, with Klingon to follow. In the meantime, if you still want to view the Borg clips, you can visit TrekCore's Borg video page where I have provided every single clip. Enjoy!

Uggghhh...

...so I am trying to add annotations and interactivity to Borg, but certain clips hamper my ability to do so. If I'm going to do it right, I'm going to have to go back and add a few more videos so the user does not have to reload the previous video clip just because of a bad decision. Talk about a friggin' mess.

I think I might just do Klingon, and then get back to fixing Borg. I dunno.

Annoucning STAR TREK: KLINGON

I will soon be uploading the entire interactive episode of KLINGON as soon as I finish the Borg annotation project. I've never played it before, so it might be a while until I figure out the whole scheme of things and play it though. Bear with me!

YouTube Video Annotations

I'm going to start my work on beginning video annotations for the Borg videos and make it a little more entertaining by letting the user click their choice rather than clicking the video response video and maybe pop in some trivia and goofs 'n such. Lemme know what you guys think!

Hard Drive Failure

Well, this stinks... but my 500 GB external hard drive failed a week ago and I have to send it in for a replacement, so it's going to be a long while until I can make some more Trek videos. I lost the work I had made on my Le Disko one for VOY and Bitch for House. It's a bummer, but I guess it'll give me time to think of more ideas for videos. Overall, I'd say my largest disappointment would be the fact it had all my master copies of my music videos. Not much I can do about it it, but still makes me sad. :(
