THE VIDEOS THREAD FOR MSPA VIDEOS [VIDEOS]

Tried it in Chrome, didn't work. Gotta use Firefox.

To extract the Homestuck .swf files using Chrome (Windows 7 and, I presume, Vista):

1. Navigate to "<Main Drive>:\Users\<Username>\AppData\Local\Google\Chro me\User Data\Default\Cache". AppData is a hidden/system file, so either type it in the navigation bar at the top, or activate "View hidden and system files" from the "File Options" menu in the control panel, as I have.

2. Delete all files with the prefix "f_". Don't worry, this won't break anything.

3. Load a flash page. A number of new "f_" files will appear.

4. When the flash has loaded fully and begun playing, make sure your windows explorer window is fully refreshed and select the "f_" file with the largest filesize - usually the one at the bottom.

5. Copy this file to another location. Rename it "<insert arbitrary flash name>.swf".

6. Job done.

Note: Cascade is broken up into multiple files, so you're gonna have to grab all of them if you want to download that.

If anyone is interested, you can then create high-definition video copies the same size as your monitor by recording fullscreen playback of the files with a program such as FRAPS. Some video editing programs allow you to directly import .swf files, mainly those made by Adobe, but this seems to remove animation from individual elements - I.E. if somebody's expression changes or a meteorite should be animated with burning flame, they will jsut remain static, rendering the flash in this form useless.

I have got to say, these are some of the most amazing voices I've seen people do for the Homestuck characters.

Hey so, I'm considering making some Flash compilation videos. Like a video with like, all the flashes in an act back to back. Might combine some of the first few acts.

Do you think I should talk in between flashes like a radio show, or just string them all together back to back?

I'd say make both versions, but personally I'd prefer to watch without commentary.

I feel like if I wanted to watch all the flashes I could just do that. On the other hand awesome Drillgorg commentary is not something I currently have access to.

Agreed to the fullest. Couldn't have said it better myself.

Found some cool vids. First two are comic voice-overs by pacman9911.

WARNING, the video under this next spoiler contains offensive terms that make this NSFW. Not that Cap. Pasteleg was safe for work, but still. You've been warned.

May I ask what you used to convert the flash to video? I've been having quality problems with my screen capture software.

Nearly a month late, but what I do is download the SWF from the page (look at source code and find SWF), decompile it to an FLA, and then export it as a MOV in Flash.

[BobbyBritish]

I saw this on tumblr, it's Rex Duodecim Angeuls synced up to Caliborn: Enter and it is almost perfect the way they match.

[Blaperile]

...Wow, that does fit amazingly well.

You can also use websites to download the flash as .AVI except I can't name such sites openly for obvious reasons.

After three days, I finally completed this flash. Amazing how long it takes to make something so short.
It's an extended version of the [S] 5596 flash (the one where Jonh is stabbed by Jack), using mostly maniped images.

This is a "trailer" of sorts that I made, I think it turned out pretty well!

[Bearstronaut]

Just a video made from a Different Context I made recently. I figure it belongs in both places.

@Bearstronaught:
The video embdding for your video is disabled, so maybe just have it as a link?

Also, very amusing.

Fixed, and thanks.

I jumped on the bandwagon and I've been making shitty videos of Sweet Bro and Hella Jeff comics for a while, and today I realized I should probably show them to you guys on the forums instead of just bugging my friends to watch.



Here's the newest one I did. You can find the first six episodes on this playlist. Tell me what you think, guys. How horrible are they, on a scale from 1 to 10?

[simon.clarkstone]

Brilliant. I completely lost it at number 7.

Someone made a video based on a nice Karkat/Terezi fanfic!

This was in the related videos of the video Hussie linked in his twitter. It explains why John likes Nic Cage so much. Less MSPA, but there is a short clip.

Oh wow these are so awesome.

I'm awaiting the day when Homestuck gets performed on Broadway.
Or maybe the Starkids...

the countless possibilities

[Shadowbi]

The John interdiction gave me a cool idea.

It's an original animation, done Hussie-style:
