Surreal64ce Help!, Synopsis and XMV Collection Options

[weinerschnitzel]

Hey guys, I'm going to pull an RX and get as much help as I can to complete a community project. I am looking for the same kind of help he is, but I will need devoted volunteers who think they can get information between 3 days and 7 days.

You will need an emuXtras.net connection. If you haven't checked it out you really should. From there we will need help with building the N64 Synopsis. Someone will have to add all of the crc's we use (cbagy them sorted alphabetically in Surreal.ini) Afterwards, other users will need to fill in the information on these entries. (Game issue reporting on synopsis is a great way to report an emulator issue to everyone and anyone can do it) If you are interested, send me a pm and I will arrange for you to get a Synopsis editor account.

Now the harder part... I need volunteers with IRC access (mibbit is fine) to collaborate with Cbagy who has taken lead on capturing and creating an xmv video pack. If you would like to hurry this along, get in contact in #RessurectionXtras or #Surreal64CE on EFNET.

The xmv's will take a while, and the video pack won't be available until sometime after release. Synopsis is key right now. Once I have enough valid entries, I can throw in a Synopsis reader to Surreal opening a few new doors.

Long Live the Community!

I'd love to help with the synopsis mate, but I'm busy enough finishing those Surreal skins.
Great idea though.

Hi guys, looks like I am in.

Just did 20 entries starting from the bottom. (took longer than I thought it would)

To anyone who wants to help. this would equal the following:

1. Going to emuxtras.net and adding to the synopsis editor
2. let us know so we can hook you up with an account for n64
   
3. and also coordinate what ones you will do (so no one is doing double work )

Let us know if you are interested
Or if you need help/ more info.

I'll try to post some more info in better detail asap.

Lets go guys... the faster we get this done the faster the new Surreal 5.5 comes out!

A few more demo vids for Surreal video previews when 5.5 is released.

These have a few artifacts, not noticable, this is due to the encoding process at low bitrates.
I use low bitrates in order to keep the file sizes much smaller.

You guys at emuXtras have been a great help.

Cbagys organized ini for crc entry in synopsis: http://www.mediafire.com/?chtd5l1jqvsbn86
use crc1 for each entry.

MMQ, thanks for getting the ball rolling. With the valid entries I can get the Synopsis reader put together. We need all the help we can get. Most info can be found of GameFAQs or wikipedia. Getting in a few entries at a time will speed things along if we have multiple people going. Please Volunteer!

Good stuff Cbagy, great quality for size.
