Hi all - I just noticed, today, that Angel Kiss / Devil's Kiss can now be downloaded in the 1080p resolution.

It looks fantastic!

Great job, VG! I can't wait for more.

I just wanted to give y'all a heads up, on the new resolution. Seriously, the new resolution looks phenomenal.

[If this has already been mentioned, my apologies]

Later!

How can I tell, if any of the cards in my collection are available in the higher resolution?

The cards will have a small green resolution logo on the card, or a green update icon. Looking forward to what's updated next...

Angel Kiss in high resolution is absolutely fantastic

thx Totem

this update should not have been released so quickly, cause we're still working on those files. There are still some placing bugs, that will be fixed in the incoming update (1 or 2 days to be synced).
good to see you already enjoy it! ;-)

btw, some more cards are to be updated in the incoming weeks ;-) stay tuned!

Yes i to have up graded and it is great thanks Totem.

And @Nikotem thanks for the heads up on the other cards that are coming. I`ll be waiting.

Great card to start this with, thanks!!

I know you are still working out the kinks but the only problem i found was the pole clips are not centered when in full size mode and are to the left and right of the screen everything else looks great.

Two thumbs up!

I can't download it tonight. I'm getting a server error 404.

Actually, MUFFDIVR, none of your shows will be updated, since the updates are planned for cards released in 2010 to date.

I was only able to get the first 6 files to download before it was ***** to stop it's loading from the clips I did see it looks great

?How can I tell, if any of the cards in my collection are available in the higher resolution?

Continuing Oquijan's post
"the updates are planned for cards released in 2010 to date."

I'm going to venture to say that cards a0650 and up are candidates to receive resolution updates.

While there were some cards early in 2010, I don't think they were all filmed in the Higher resolution back then.

When and if, cards in your collection are released in a New Resolution, that card will have a Resolution Sticker on it..

Not to be ***** with the Update Sticker.

Resolution Sticker - Means a New Resolution is available for the card.
Update Sticker - Means something besides the resolution for the card has been Updated.

The Team is still working on the Encoder details for Current Production. None of the existing cards have been re-encoded as of yet.

I have just downloaded the upgraded 1080p version of this card to replace the original version. I would like to provide feedback based on my observations:

The video quality is superb! I look forward to seeing many more of the older cards upgraded to 1080p.

As Ironman79 reported earlier the pole clips and standing clips are not centered. Some of those clips are even positioned to the far right or left of my screen.

Most of the taskbar clips are VERY large. While I really like this in principle they are much larger than the taskbar clips of other cards and therefore ruin any sense of uniformity when clips from random cards are being played out of sequence. There are 2 clips in particular - a0666_66208 and a0666_66302 in which her body can't even be contained by my screen.

While I look forward to future upgrades, I hope that these problems will be fixed on this card and that future upgrades will not be affected.

I have been assuming that the bad placement of clips is not due to a bug in the clip itself, but rather in the software. I've been trying to call attention to this issue over in the Mac forum on this thread:

. The reason I think it's the software rather than the clip is that if I change from "Right" placement of clips to "Left" placement of clips, the issue is fixed. (But the downside of "Left" placement of clips is that everything is backwards. This suggested to me that the clips are probably OK, but that computation of how their bounding box should be scaled to certain screen sizes was wrong. In any case, I wish someone would fix it -- it makes the new 1080p clips much less attractive than they should be (unless you're into just seeing elbows float onto the side of your screen...).

Hold on, I take that back, Katy Angel's Morning Smoke card goes off-screen whether in "Left" or "Right" mode for clip 96409.

Niko said the card is not ready and that they were fixing placement problems for some clips. I would wait for the definitive, official release of the fixed card before reporting bugs from an unfinished work, but that's just me.

All the files have been reencoded yesterday, and uploaded on the servers today. They will be available tonight. Thank you for your patience. Centering issues have been fixed. This test card should not have been released until we get the good parameters, but the sync pushed up the release to earlier... sorry for all the different downloads.
Btw, don't forget to use the 'fit to my screen resolution' in case you have a small screen.

When I try to download this update, it gets to about 60% downloaded and then reports a Server error [404]. I've tried deleting the files from the models folder and starting again but get the same result.

Thanks for the update, hope this issue can be fixed soon.

Worth the wait and now Totem has added another of Angel's cards to the 1080 list. Fantastic!
