I made an IFTTT recipe for getting alerts on my phone when a new LP is posted. I've not had much trouble with it.

I'm thinking of making a Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker SSLP and have already made the first update - could people give any feedback? Are the images too big, for example?

https://lpix.org/sslptest/index.php?id=148122

Ohh! I've been waiting for an SSLP of this! I had it on the Request List for like, a year, before I let it fall off.

Anyway, screen size looks fine to me, but things look a little fuzzy. I don't know how to remedy that, but I'm sure someone here can tell you.

On the other hand, if you really want to do it via the snapshot to Twitter thing, you can take the images from the tweets, save them to your computer, then upload them to LPix. You might have to resize them with… uh, whatever tool is recommended. IrfanView, I think? I never remember what it's called because I use something else.

That way, you get to tweet your run to your followers, and present it as a Screen Shot LP here.

I say this every time something like this comes up, but the New LPs thread really isn't needed, since there's an RSS feed for it. I've even set up an IFTTT recipe to send a notification to your phone every time the RSS feed updates with a new LP.

Other than that, I agree with GrandmaParty's outline.

Need some opinions on image sizes. The top image is at the same resolution as my capture footage and the bottom is resized down a bit. Is the top too large or could I get away with that size?





I personally have no issues with the top image.

Also, I checked your post in the Awful App on my phone and on my tablet, and they both end up at the exact same size. They're both also perfectly readable.

Most people are for offsites because we figure Lowtax is going to flip poo poo and shut SA down, FYI, not just because they want to leave. You can post here and on the beach at the same time

I figure that if he was gonna shut SA down, he would have by now.



CrashScreen posted:

I don't know about elsewhere, but on the SALP subforum all I've seen is people either afraid of it all being burned to the ground, or just personally not wanting to support Lowtax. Not seen many judgments. I hope too many people aren't being dicks?

Just continue to stay out of GBS and you'll be fine.

Party Bug posted:

I am currently working on an LP of Hades. Those of you who've played it probably know how bad of an idea that is, but the plan is this: Do video updates for first run and every 5th run or so, then do screenshots updates for the (significant) runs in-between. That plus editing some files to speed up progression should hopefully make this a manageable task.

Anyway here's the first episode:

- https://youtu.be/nJJt2zaWse4

And the following screenshot update:

- https://lpix.org/sslptest/index.php?id=157808

Any feedback would be appreciated.

Looks good to me! This game is on my Steam Wishlist, and this LP will probably push me over into buying it.

Psycho Knight posted:

So here's the thing: Nidoking is correct about this. In its current state, the game has maybe 2 or 3 screenshot-style updates in it.

From playing through it myself for a little over an hour. It definitely has a surreal feeling to it. I did get quite a few laughs out of what I saw.

But I don't know if that's enough to make it worth creating a dedicated LP thread for. I could certainly come back to the LP as major content patches hit, but that would create an LP which only gets maybe 1 or 2 updates every couple of months (possibly. This game could spend the next 5 years in Early Access for all I know).

As it is right now, the game is good for about 1 or 2 hours of laughs in a video format. What I could do instead of an SSLP is to use the footage I captured and attempt to create a captioned video.


Since this is the request thread, please quote this in the Sandcastle if you intend to reply to what I wrote. I don't want to clog up the request thread with more LP discussion.

Why not post it in The Casual LP Thread?

Maybe you should page an admin (probably astral) or make a thread about this in the tech forum.

I'd say post it in the Technical Issues Thread. Also, add this:
