Call to Action: Archive EVERYTHING!

[Megajoule]

As a personal project and memento, I spent the last couple of months grabbing demos of (almost) every zone in the game, along with lots of screenshots.  If someone can tell me where to put 'em, I'll be glad to upload the demo files for the public.

Atlas, Galaxy (Echo), Kings, Perez, Hollows, Skyway, Faultline, Steel, Boomtown, Indy Port, Terra Volta, Talos, Striga, Croatoa, Brickstown, Crey's, Founder's, Eden, Peregrine
Midnighter Club, Cimerora, Pocket D, Rikti War Zone, Dark Astoria (live and echo)
Ouroborous
Outbreak(!)
Firebase Zulu, Cascades, Chantry, Storm Palace
Mercy, Port Oakes, Cap, Sharkhead, Nerva, St. Martial, Grandville
Bloody Bay, Recluse's, Siren's, Warburg
Nova Praetoria, Imperial City, Neutropolis, Underground Imperial(*), First Ward, Night Ward
 (* chosen to be representative, not comprehensive)

You can either take my on-rails tour, or push F2 and explore as a free-roaming camera.

Since the announcement I've grabbed screen shots of every sign in the game that I saw, even in missions. The signs in this game were always something that made it special to me, so I wanted my own archive of them. I think I got most of them outside of praetoria (though I did get a few there), particularly in the rogue Isles. I'm pretty sure I have all the red side signs.

You could host them on Dropbox as one potential option, or even mediafire. I, for one, am very interested in having the demo files of all the zones. I was recording things towards the end with a very specific purpose in mind, so I don't have records of a lot.

I think ParagonWiki or Ouroboros Portal may be able to do this as part of it's file upload mechanism, if it's cool with Titan Network to use the wikis for that purpose.

Something like upload file, link to it in an appropriate page (don't just upload the file and take off), and we the community organize and collate the links (so someone out of haste or ignorance doesn't dump links to Atlas Park tours in the list for Villain zones, etc.)

It would be easier to use existing systems than make a new section of the Titan Network just for demorecord submissions I feel.  I might be wrong and something like that is already in the works (COHTube? XD)

The month that never happened....from the CoX forums

[Megajoule]

I've zipped up all the zone records I have.  The package comes to 50.5 megs.  I don't have a dropbox (et al) account; should I get one, or do you have other options/suggestions?

[Tahquitz]

Self hosting seems to be the only option for now.  If you want to share it now at least. (Dropbox, Google Drive, box, etc.)

A centralized option would be great, but when it happens, it happens.

[Daimyoshi]

I host the Zip at my site but then I need to get the file some how. If we can some how work and exchange I will host it on my Remembrance Site for CoX.

[Megajoule]

Let me see if I have this right, then:

Thank you

[Scitenik]

Awesome, very much appreciated!

[Tahquitz]

Very nice!  Thanks for sharing!

As for the representative not comprehensive part, once the map is fully loaded, I hit P, then F2 in the Demorecord mode, which lets me move around the map as I please.  The tours are helpful, but anyone with these files can go "self-directed" if they like.  (The program Cameraman also helps greatly: http://www.cohtitan.com/forum/index.php/topic,5623.new.html#new)

(Edit: You got the Ski Chalet!  AWESOME! :DDD)

I'm downloading it. I hope there aren't any viruses, cuz GMail can't scan it... 

 

[Megajoule]

Given that it came from my machine, I sure hope it's not virus infected too.
You are, of course, welcome to scan it yourself once it's downloaded.

Tahquitz:  What I meant was, I didn't get all three Underground zones, just that one.  Like I said, this was a personal project.

-A piece of history for newer players.- Those kiosks that were all over were once the Facebook of Paragon. You could get information about who had the top stats for tanks, healers etc. The top ten were displayes for the day, week and month.
Here is a screenie with my Double Healix listed. There was something really cool seeing your name on the lists. I was bummed when the devs disabled them, but it must have been a pain to keep up with it all.

*Sobs*

Megjoule, you will never know how much this means to me.  I wanted desperately to demorecord all the zones so I could walk through them again, but we were so busy on the Disney Pitch I never got even half of them done.  Thank you, thank you, thank you.

[Tahquitz]

Sorry to necro this post, but a possible Demorecord repository is in the works outside of Titan Network.

There's a link to his demo records as well.

Also, someone is working on a demorecord converter for any .costume or Sentinel+ files you have to aid in making your own Demorecord edits later. https://twitter.com/EpicDuckStudios/status/276743837924339712
