As the thread name implies, I'm going to be making some longplay-esque videos for a good chunk of the complete and better unfinished mods out there now that summer break is starting soon. I currently have roughly 36 or so mods lined up, though I might be open for suggestions after I finish those.

Decided to start off with a classic: Schism.

Since I haven't posted these on the forums yet, I might as well include the footage I recorded around a month ago for something else:

Ah this is awesome! It's been a while since we've seen a true comeback to CS mod play-throughs; I can't wait to see where it goes. Since there have been a new wave of mods, it's nice to see that they can get some needed exposure, even if it's confined to our community, but nonetheless, exciting!

Yeah, I figured I might as well make videos for them if I'm going to be playing them anyways.

Also expect a re-upload of the Schism video sometime today assuming that the lab is free; despite the volume being perfect for my earbuds, the same can only be said for the YouTube video if you crank the player's volume up to max. Will try to keep that in mind for future videos.
Edit: Replaced the old video with one that has bumped-up audio levels.

This is pretty interesting, looking forward to seeing what mods you'll be going through.

Also want to mirror that this is a good idea. I had actually thought about making some kind of Cave Story mod longplays channel on YouTube for a while, but I'm very happy to see that somebody has gone ahead and started making it themselves. There's a good deal of potential for this. I think it would be a good idea to make a playlist on YouTube of all these playthroughs (and heck, such a playlist could include longplays of mods played by other users, if they want to contribute as well). Links to each mod's video could also be included in the mod archive (if/when it gets finished) as a companion piece in case you want to preview the mod. Plus, this could help some of the more underappreciated mods get exposure. Keep it up, Seasons :D

Y'know, adding these videos to the mod archive is actually a pretty neat idea! I don't know if I have the willpower to play through a gorillion partial edits of Cave Story, but at least some mods would get a preview. Anyways, thanks for the encouragement.

>No Enthology despite being 100% complete.

Though to be fair the archive probably lists it as the abandoned 2015 version so that makes sense. Thats a good list you got there. Can't wait to watch these.

And this is why I said I can definitely add more when the time comes. I might sprinkle them throughout the later parts of the list if I feel like it, but for now I wanna go with my current order of oldest to newest.

Speaking of Enthology, the archive does list it as complete with a "?" length. I think I missed it due to how I stopped shortly after Inner Demons in the archive, and Enthology just so happened to be around that point. On the list it goes.

Oh shit, Wrath of Revorshkenahl AND Lost Land!? This is exciting, can't wait to see these older mods be brought up for more exposure.

Took well over 12 hours to upload, but here we have one of Metalogz' mods: Magic. It was kinda fun editing this footage; I'll probably try to work a little more variation into it later on down the line, depending on what I can come up with.

Really hoping that HitFilm Express has a smaller YouTube export than the one I used for this because hoo boy this took a long time to crank out.

Tale of Dale is one buggy piece of shiny garbage, unique but really flawed
I don't recall it causing antivirus problems though..?

I'm glad you picked Lunar Shadow though, it's an unpopular mod but it's quite fun to play (if you don't get lost in the castle)

Tale of Dale I think was a false positive, at least in the newest release. The Brown Lines is/was definitely infected though.

I distinctly remember being able to play Tale of Dale before just fine. Webroot just doesn't like it for some reason or another, though I can probably just make an exception for it like I did one of my Geneforge games.

Also yeah, Cave Story Redesign is gonna need a lot of editing and/or, if I get lost enough, segmenting.

We don't talk about TBL, I got rid of it for good because I actually managed to catch something on it; I mean, it never existed, what are you talking about

I have a clean copy of ToD for sure if there are still doubts....

A little slow on the draw this time due to trying to split my focus between I Wanna Be The Story, some other things, and this series, but here we are! Presenting DragonBoots' mod, The Dark Platform:

By the way, been wondering this for the past couple videos: what's the general attitude towards my editing so far? It's fun to be a little less than serious with my editing, especially with some of the things I did for The Dark Platform, but if it bothers enough people I could try doing something a bit quicker and more consistent.

Just thought I'd ask before I move onto the next mod on my list: Julian's King.

What should I do if an antivirus problem occurs? I was just thinking to change the antivirus software. what you would advise? I tend to Avast more.
Antivirus softwares such as Webroot or Avast (i haven't used others) do give you the option to say it's safe, if their actions are more extreme, it should be possible to manually undo it and take it off their blacklist
