Writing a journal before I forget or get distracted again.

Whew, I can't be bothered to resume the entire week I've missed so I'm just gonna resume the past couple of days. I played Last Remnant some more, finished my rendering project, finished getting the sounds and setting up the Wwise project for my audio project so tomorrow I'm gonna finish it for good, and today's Physics class was hilarious.

For the new and final project, we had to do the physics of a plane. Teacher said to use matrixes and quaternions but since I forgot most of it already, I tried some pretty weird things, project works perfectly as intended and without bugs. Teacher has no idea how or why it works since I don't touch matrixes or quaternions at all, but seems I have one less thing to do this week xD. I was in a pretty awesome mood and when I stepped outside, it was raining, whee! So instead of taking the bus, I walked back home.

Before the class though and before working on stuff, I received the new webcam I ordered. I figured the jump from 480p to 1080p would be a welcome change, but apparently it comes with a bunch of issues because hot dang. The basic LifeCam software I've been using forever doesn't record above 720p, so I had to make the jump to VirtualDub. Problem is, at first it'd take 5,5gb to record 1 minute of stuff, so I had to fish for codecs for a while. Eventually managed to shrink it down to 1,3gb per minute which is pretty good for a lossless format, but now the problem is that Movie Maker doesn't accept .avi. My old webcam recorded in .wmv so that wasn't an issue; I tried converters and they worked but it wasn't lossless and true 1080p anymore... it just looked like my old webcam except slightly better.

Went fishing for new video editing software and tried a few, but nothing seems to work fine so I'm gonna have to keep looking another day once I can afford the time. I wasted over two hours on a single recording and that's enough for today. Oh and I might have met someone.
