hello im new (video included)

[Bbandit]

hello all,
im new and i just thought i should say hi
i've been playing GT3 since the first time it came out
last year, i got myself a logitech steering wheel+pedal.
since then, i've been drifting all over the place
and yes i also drift in real life.. i dont drift in public roads because its stupid.. i go to drift events
i've also been autocrossing for 3 years now.
i drive a 1991 240sx coupe (www.conetoy.com)
enough about me now lets talk about GT3

here's the first video i made last year (i sucked big time back then)
http://www.maddphatt.com/granturismo3/gt3drift1resized.mpg
right click - save as
its not that fancy but i hope you guys like it
song: t.a.t.u. - all the things she said (russian version)


im in the process of making a new video but my video card (S-video input) decided to gave up on me..
so now im looking for an alternative way to capture some of the footages from my memory card. do you guys have any ideas?

anyhow..
nice to meet you all
peace

Rey

downloading the video now, welcome to GTPLANET

 

[Bbandit]

thanks man
and im really sorry. i have a slow server so bare with me

 

[Dark Skyline]

So thats why It is taking so long, oh welll, I'v got time

 

[Street Fighter]

My download just froze pretty much, probably when Dark connected

 

[Dark Skyline]

Hey dont blame your problems on me

 

[Bbandit]

its in zipped form

 

[Dark Skyline]

only 5 min. untill I whach your video

 

[XzifT]

Very nice. It looks like you're using big horsepower cars, and probably using T7's, T8's, right? Just a suggestion: Try lower HP cars, nothing more than 300 HP, on simulation tires. You're just taking away from your own skill if you don't. Besides that, very nice video, I see you got the wheel, like myself, so the drifts come out nice and smooth. But try an AE86, Simulation tires, turn the ASM and TCS off, and try drifting like that, that's where true skill shines.

 

[Dark Skyline]

That video was awsome:tup:

 

[XzifT]

And hey, whats the backdrop song called?

 

[Bbandit]

thanks for the comments guys
the song? t.a.t.u - all the things she said (russian version)

low HP cars with sims tires?
okay i'll do that
i do have an AE86 <300hp but i dont use sims tires
i might want to start and try that
thanks for the inputs

 

[XzifT]

Yeah, it makes drifts seem alot smoother, and you can hold them out for a while, and I almost forget.

Welcome to GTP!

 

[Ethix101]

! I haven't downloaded the video yet because I'm currently downloading several other things, but I'll give some more feedback when I do.

aahh yes yes...
i just tried it on my stock FD with tcs and acs off
i never use sims tires before but now that i do
i love em.. i can do slower and more technical drifts
thanks for the feedback man
do you have any other suggestions for a newbie like me?
i dont know the standards of drifting here in GTplanet
do you have any good gt3 video that i can download and learn from?

I didnt know you made a video, nice job:tup:

 

[XzifT]

Thank you.

 

[Bbandit]

nice clean run!
i like it a lot!
im gonna post more videos once i get everything fixed

oh yea btw... i just realized that there are teams and drift battles...

how does that work? i read the threads about em n stuff but im kinda slow...so i guess i have to read em again

 

[XzifT]

Basically, in a nut shell:
A person challenges another person.
Both people send in a video of their run a set course, sometimes set restrictions, and so on.
A pre-set (always the same) panel of judges judge the videos based on Angel, Smoke, Style, etc, etc..
They then decide who wins and post the videos for public viewing.

 

[XzifT]

Also: Teams are (As I know, sorry if I leave one or two out):
Monkey D- Lead by Battle_Stage
Team Slideshow- Lead by (I'm not sure)
Project D- Lead by SupraFly
4.W.D- lead by Ryen49 (I think this team is done now...)
Team Zaku (Or something, just got started today)- Lead by anime drifter.

Now its time for sleep. Andrew out.
