New to Fox, need advice.

[maelstrom99]

Well, I've just started picking up Fox and I was just wondering if anyone could give me advice on character matchups and technial stuff I really need to get down with Fox. Mainly, I wanna own my friends since some of them are arrogant pricks and I really wanna shut 'em up. Anyways, I've noticed my friends main Falco, Dr. Mario, Jigglypuff, Sheik, Fox, and Marth. It'd be nice if someone could give me strats on char matchups, top priority being Dr. Mario since that's really a major main my friends use. Anyways, thanks, and I look forward to working with Fox haha.

P.S. I've got some technical stuff down like wavedashing and L-cancelling, but I need help with some more advanced stuff like waveshining.

You should try your best to post a video or 2.
A lot of Fox players do that here and usually get what they want.

If what you need help with is as vague as match-ups, just take a look at one of the Fox guides, here in the Fox boards.

 

[maelstrom99]

hmm.. how can I record a match?

 

[RaynEX]

lol.

1. Video-tape it.

2. Record it on VHS then transfer it to your pc.

3. Use a digi-cam to record with the video-capture function...(in quick fixes this works best for me).

You'll figure it out. How do you record b-days? Use that method. :S

 

[maelstrom99]

umm.. i don't record birthdays lol. Well, I don't have a digi-cam, just a VHS lol.. so what do I do now?

 

[RaynEX]

point it at the screen...

and hit the record button... are all these ******** questions really necessary? You can't really be THAT MUCH in need of help?

 

[einthesuperdog]

Maybe he just means a VHS player. Is it necessary to come down on him like that? That being said, maelstrom, try to reserve this place for smash questions. And if you want to get good with the technical stuff like waveshining then my advice would be to practice a lot.

 

[RaynEX]

i'm not coming down on him. Are you seriously telling me that asking how to record a match..the question alone; shouldn't be scrutinized?

 

[einthesuperdog]

I agree that the question is unnecessary and doesn't belong in this thread, I even say so myself. But when you say "you can't really be THAT MUCH in need of help," I see that as being personal. Unnecessary question or not smashboards is a resource for getting help, and we all have to start somewhere.

 

[RaynEX]

Nevertheless,

asking about HOW to actually record something isn't really the kind of help most would be inclined to give. Seeing as it is ridiculously easy to do.

Anyways, before this thread gets closed; lets address the topic at hand. Record the vids, put them up. Done&done.

 

[Eggz]

Put da tape in da VCR

Press dah record button

Go through dah ridiculous stepz to transfah it to dah PC

and lahstly

GET TO DA CHOPPA

 

[thebluedeath1000]

Eggz, you make life worth living.

 

[RaynEX]

I second that.

 

[maelstrom99]

ok well, the thing is.. I know how to record it onto a videotape, the question is how to get it to the pc.. well, whatever, you don't have to answer if you don't want to. I can look elsewhere...

Stop sounding like such a wuss.

Look under the video section theres plenty of information regarding recording & uploading.

I couldn't have said it better myself.

wth...i didn't know that. :S

 

[maelstrom99]

it's so nice to see the kindness of the Smash community. =o

 

[ye25]

Seriously, wait til we critique your bad quality vid xD.

 

[RaynEX]

any update on those vids?

 

[maelstrom99]

dude, really, I know how to record it onto a VHS tape... I just don't know how to xfer TAPE onto a COMPUTER. (excuse caps, i'm trying to sound dramatic)

 

[ye25]

Or maybe you are!! Dont worry I dont know how to record vids either xD. That doesnt mean i cant play smash though o.o.

 

[RaynEX]

Google it, maybe a website can help you or something.

This thread is changing;

from "need advice" to "transfer help"

 

[Oskurito]

I use a TV card for the comp (it looks like a sound card If you've ever seen one of those) which has two outputs but you'll need one cable with double-video audio inputs and a TV with 2 video-audio outputs, that cable is going to link your TV with your comp and all you've gotta do next is connect your GCN on the other entrance(output) and use a capture program to record (windows media should work)

 

[RaynEX]

sh*t.

I didn't know it was that easy. I just used a good digi-cam hoisted on textbooks. :S

 

[maelstrom99]

alright thanks. It's been very productive. Time to go buy me a TV card, thanks again. I will update on this if I ever get the chance to record.

 

[RaynEX]

I guess i'll take this time to apologize for being dumb?

Hope it works out for ya.

[ye25]

Like a bitter melon.

 

[RaynEX]

[ye25]

Cept its not edible.

 

[RaynEX]

i love this meaningless banter.

&oh, i thought so.

 

[ye25]

[RaynEX]
