what you are looking for can be found by reading the main page - theres a link to learning supcom there.

takes you to this page.

using search function also works pretty well i found.

hope this helps

Not going to happen until wiki is transferred over properly:

This weekend when I get my next material run I'll experiment a bit more.

Thank you all for the feedback so far!

I have the Nvidia encoding with dual-GTX 770s. I should be able to plow through and will test for my next vid / redux of this one.

Morax, your bitrate should be an absolute minimum of 4500 (value in the box in OBS) to push 1080p video. This will still give some pixelation with fast movements, but if you are constrained by your network, this is the minimum you have to deal with. Below 4500, you need to use 720p. 8000-10000 pretty much eliminates pixelation. 15000 seems to be about the limit where you can't easily see any improvement past that. You need to do a test run before you actually record though, because the higher the bitrate is, the more load it will put on your CPU (if you are using CPU to encode) and if you go above where OBS shows you the "warning: high CPU usage" the video starts hitching and doing weird things.

yeah, curious indeed

morax - make sure this gets on the wiki as well as anything you put up in the future.

How? I see speed2 post links often and every time I go there I challenge myself to find it from the "home" page and 99/100 times fail. It's not very well laid out in my opionin : (

How does this affect the outcome and what should I change it to?

I like it.
It's good to have a quick way to know those "invisible" features exist, and how to use them on top of it :p

I was always too lazy to look at what hotbuild actually does, I'll give it a go now

I have no issue with the pacing, your voice is really good. (ignoring the volume issue obviously)

dude.

All the respect. take all of it.

You and your voice are beautiful as always, but yeah the audio levels are all messed up and bitrate is way too low ^^

I find it curious how suddenly everyone started doing tutorial videos o__O

Hey all,

I spoke with visionik and some others awhile back on what to do post the WWPC and was reminded of how difficult this game really is for new players. The answer became clear that creating more detailed "how to" videos would be the best path forward to grow the FAF user base and generate more competition.

In an effort to make the introduction to the complexities of Supreme Commander easier I've decided to spend my time learning how to teach the game in a better manner. I will be doing less-entertaining but informational tutorials and casts with a mix of entertainment/analysis that fits in between the style of Gyle and Zock/TA4Life/etc.

So here is my first tutorial video. Please note I'm aware the volume of my voice is low (was some bug with OBS) and it's not as fluid as I'd like it to be. I will work on pacing my voice and be more on point so I can say everything I want to say well.

Thank Yous

I'd like to thank Lextoc (believe it or not, he was the best trainer I worked with to date) JaggedAppliance (show me how to get some OBS stuff set up), Kalvirox (wouldn't be anywhere if it was not for his invite to AIx back when I returned to this game), VioletAnia (helped out with casting settings and feedback), keyser (great guy and very friendly to teach), Zock (his phenomenal lessons), MrMackey (good 1v1s and feedback), visionik (for keeping this all alive), Sheeo (he needs a pat on the back with all the work he does), Man_Of_Action (lots of help and feedback), Blodir, ZLO, Molotov (currently AngerManagement), Cassimus (please come back!), and many more...
