Dark Files 2 - By Dark Soul

FINALLY I UPLOADED MY VIDEO!!!!! (after 8, yes 8 failed attempts to upload)

Short Info (copy-paste from the readme file rofl):

Well, i decided to make the second part of my video because (personally) i didn't like the result of my first video
so i said "yeah lets make dark files 2".

All the footage are from Scrims, 1v1 and CAL footage (only the credits lol, i had so many "meh" frags in CAL so i
didn't want to show them). There is no Staged or Pub frags in the video, also some frags can look laggy, that's
because i dont have servers to play in my country, so most of the frags in the video are from American servers .

Basically i made a Clean editing After ALL the problems with sony vegas (i couldn't mask coz Vegas crashed every time
i want to do that, i couldn't put a crosshair img file due a weird problem with vegas) so the editing is not the most
impressive u've seen, but i still thinking i made a huge improvement since my first vid. so i hope u enjoy
the frags

Special thanks:

wowowwowo thanks for the comments m8s. really aprecciate ur words

@onty: yeah vegas betrayed me this time

Enjoyed the vid, well done in all respects.

ohwow. This is awesome, in every respect. While you say there's a lack of editing, I'd say that the clean style is a plus. Great music, too. Watching that lostvillage kill, I recalled a pub game we played that contained dialogue something like this:
me: wowowowowow wtf
dark: ?
me: xbow bolts falling real slow, straight down.
dark: wait for my video.

It was worth every bit of waiting.

(so rate and comment are welcome)

PS2: and it's on youtube too : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4I2T5kC2O_k&fmt=22

Yeah we should lol...especially the footage you've probably just got the other nite ...I like seeing myself get pwned alot lol..

what a nice video.

the editing was really good and there was some amazing frags. these granade frags were impressive and the quality of the video was great. nice work.

I liked the same weapon transitions, I'd like to see more of them. The syncing was also good, especially the strobe effect during the intro. subtle, simple and clean... no over the top bullshit that's spoiled so many other frag vids

Keep it up DS, I look forward to your next instalment

Really aprecciate ur words guys, love u so much!!!

KEEP HL2DM ALIVE FOREVER!!!

Impressive. Perhaps the best editing I've seen for a HL2DM vid.

yay im in the video! nicely done man i like it !!

Thx charles and dazzle for ur comments

oh id have to put onti up there with it but yea! very much!
and while i'm at it i'd like to say in the midst of all the winning, name calling and the current h8rage wave passing through the U lately it's so cool seeing all these new vids, maps and ppl coming into this great game.

XVid version plays a lot better for me so was finally able to enjoy the vid more

Excellent work. A bit classic but very efficient.


I have really appreciated the movements of the camera following the flying nades etc... Same for the crossbow shots.

Very interesting to see this map with the water too (I dont know the name). It avoids to see only lock/bio/lostv/losta.

So it's a vid Im gonna keep and watch again

Damn, some of the frags on this were insane, especially the lostarena double nade, been trying that all week. I like the transitions between different sections and the smoothing when you were flying through the maps.

Great video

I also liked it. I watched it on sourceradio. Nice job m8.

thx for ur words guys, im really glad to know u liked my work. i'll put more effort on my next vid

@ DDF: that map is dm_mileu (demos are from b6 and b5) it's posted in the department of architecture of the U.

Ok ty for the info. I will try to play it. It's just in Europe players are lost when they dont play lock/lost/bio. It's something I dont appreciate but it's like that.

I wait for your next vid !

In Clans United it's a system of homemaps. And a lot of clan take bio, lock, lost as homemap. And some players were complaining about that.

In OFF, the league we have created, it's a mapcycle. We have tried to bring some other maps. But when we have set some maps that are less played in Europe like Avalon etc... players were complaing again cuz according to them its not "pro maps".

And I find it stupid. There are no bad maps, only bad players

That's what I meant

There are no bad maps, only bad players

oohh trust me, there are bad maps hahaahhaah.
Anyway, yeah saying avalon, caverns, milieu and maps like those aren't "pro maps" (whatsoever that means) it's plain dumb.
People end up limiting themselves learning 3 - 4 maps and when they gotta play another one, they lose and whine, rofl.

Fully agreed. You're not pro if you can only play 2 or 3 maps, and are too scared to play people on other maps like Avalon because you're to scared you'll lose as you're not used to that map. If you can't play more than 3 maps you definately aren't pro, part of being pro means adapting to maps quickly, and if the only way you can get good at a map requires you to play the same 3 maps over and over again, you're not very good at all. Me and Dark Soul love to play other people in 2v2's in less played maps like Overwatch and Avalon etc, matches in those maps provide for very intense and interesting matches. I don't understand why people walk around like they're top shit but can't play more than 2 or 3 maps like a lot of the euro's, yet they consider themselves pro rofl, sorry to say, you're not pro.

Anyway it's going very off topic lol give more reviews for Dark Soul's vid people!

The reason why I don't play in European leagues... because it's fucking boring. I'd rather just hangout with friends and test new maps, so that's what I do.

I agree rofl

Though I would like to dwell in the finer points of how us Europeans play like ddf here who seems to try and push OFF in everyone face when ever he gets a chance I think i just stick to the topic .

On the frag video I was like "hey something thing different" with a intro that has not been mimic like most hl2dm I seen that lack ideas. Music reminds me of elevator music not sure if that a good or bad thing but choppy frames work well with it. Music from that then point the usual sort of rock but at least they where not tracks i have seen been recycled from other movies. Action was good not much to say about it really just entertained. On editing yes parts sync with music what overall basic.

I say its a good solid frag movie 7/10 from me with respect man watching frag movies now just makes me feel depressed im never going to finish mine

u better finish yours or else

Nice one darky

btw, I don't have any program for editing vids now
