hi

just uploaded the first MPG video of
our game at our WEB site www.visiware.com

Please note:
1. The mpeg stream is not time code corrected
   so, by no way the video represent the frame
   rate ou the actual game.
2. The shawdows of the cars are not activated
   so don't flame us with remarks like:
   The cars are flying...
3. If you want more videos, email me.

4. Screen shots are coming...

5. Thanks for reading...

Any comments are welcome.

Anyone else out there having problems getting past the "Bad Header"
CRC Error check when you run "ARJ e SGVID.ARJ"?

I've downloaded all of the files, and the .ARJ file a couple of times
now, but I still get the same error.

Anyone gotten past this point?

I also got the error on both the first .ARJ and the .A01 file. What a damn
waste of time. If they are going to post something they should at least
make sure it damn well works first instead of making us waste our Internet
Time...

hi,
just a word for all of you that
downloaded the video and got problem
to uncompress it.

1. I verified the files and tried to play
   the video witx XingMplayer (PC) and Mp (Amiga)
   boot worked well.
2. To be sure that the files you downloaded are
   ok, use : arj t sgvid.* this will check for
   file integrity
3. We where in a hurry to put the page with
   the files to download for you and put the wrong
   decomp options for ARJ, the correct one
   is more like arj e -v -y sgvid.
   (thanks remco Moedt!)
4. For those of you who tried arj e sgvid.*, look
   like the problem was that DOS, didn't pass
   the files in the correct order to ARJ.
5. Why using arj ?
   Because at the time i made the video, i couldn't find
   how to split file with ZIP without using disks :-(

Any more questions:

Just tried your new instructions, but still no luck.  I keep getting a message
about bad header (CRC failure); this includes using arj e -v -y sgvid.  What
version of arj did you use to create the files.  I wonder if the one I grabbed
off the net is a different one.

hi,

we used the arj v2.51

try: arj t sgvid.*

to test files integrity.

I'm downloading the files myself
to test, i'll post here
when completed.

Nope, didn't work. Here's what I got:

U:\Upload>arj e -v -y sgvid

OK, I saw your message about this "feature" in Netscape so I'll download IE
and try it with that.  Pretty sad for Netscape, though.

Thanks for your help,
