I am getting a bit of a geek-crush on the smoothly spoken Englishman that is DAZ with his insightful and thought-provoking series of derping around missing all the secrets and even items that are right in front of him errrr I mean talking about mapping while playing cool levels. So I thought his channel was worth it's own seperate thread - entertaining for players and mapping veterans, and potentially very useful for newer mappers as DAZ does offer some really good views on mapping theory. Also DAZ go ahead and put all your updates in here.

Scampie, it gave me something to talk about :)))
I swear I heard something move when hitting the jam button, oh well I must be going mad.

Thanks For The Warp Play Daz

Shame I missed the start, but it gave me a warm feeling to see you dive into a bottomless pit full of Night Gaunts :]

Yeah That Was Something!

You should definitly upload this to Youtube.
All of it.

Thanks For The Derping Daz.

Good stuff, sorry I missed the earlier bits, but falling in the Gaunt pit made up for it a little.

Also when you respawned in DayZ, I was off for a shower and my bird was watching you in fits of giggles. Apparently you spawned surrounded by zombies, but instead of attacking them you spent a good while choosing the correct cowboy hat / checked shirt combo before panicking wildly??

So How Does It Work?

I can't find the previous broadcast for warp - are they auto-deleted after a while?

Yes, I'm a internept.

Vods

Seems tiwtch has misplaced the start of the WarpSpasm stream :| No idea how that happened.

I don't know if I'll be moving a vod to youtube, especially if the beginning is missing!

That sucks :(

You mean the maps before warpd?

Dunno What's Going On

#238 posted by Pekka on 2014/09/05 20:31:06

I don't know for sure what's going on with the messages in some of the recent archived videos, but they suggest the copyright fairy has visited, muting them and cutting off most of the actual video. Some of them are now less than 30 minutes long. I saw the messages in a couple of the Colonial Marines vods.

If this was an automated process and it also mistakenly ate the Warpspasm session, maybe (just maybe) someone at Twitch support could restore it. I know, it sounds wildly optimistic. But maybe worth asking at least.

I Grant My Permission...

Vod Muting

#240 posted by DaZ on 2014/09/05 21:24:25

only mutes vods for 30 minutes if it detects a copywritten track, it doesn't cut them at all.

So something else has broken there causing many 28 minute vods that should be 2+ hours. So WarpSpasm is lost to the ether it seems :|

The Secrets In Warpspasm

#244 posted by DaZ on 2014/09/05 22:19:07

confused the fuck out of me! The trend with most modern maps is to have secrets that you can find by studying and then interacting with the environment in some way (ie hidden buttons, doors etc) but warp had very few of these.

Nothing in the levels stood out to me and I just started randomly jumping into windows and things just to see if there are secrets there. It was really weird!

Of Course You Are Right

#245 posted by mfx on 2014/09/05 22:31:41

That makes finding them more rewarding, thats the only good thing about it.
Some are nearly impossible to find:)
I tend to make secrets easier accessible, which lowers the replay value on the other hand..
Like you find 9 /10 . Like that..

Warp Had A Good Mix

#246 posted by oh, that person on 2014/09/05 22:37:50

Of intuitive secrets, obvious non-secrets, and bullshit obscure secrets.

Extended Derping

I just got twitch turbo so my vods are now kept for 60 days afterwards

I Learnt A Thing

#248 posted by Pekka on 2014/09/07 20:04:13

I read up a bit on what Twitch does with the streams, and I think it stored the vods in sections of about 30 minutes. For some reason they threw away all but one of these sections for some of Daz's recent vods. Which explains why there was so little video left. Jerks.

It didn't have anything to do with the copyright related muting. I shouldn't guess how things work without looking it up.

Anyhow, looking forward to zombie-related streaming that is starting very soon. What a good way to spend some time on Sunday evening :)
