Good day fellow assassini!

A real long time ago I completed the "I am the master of the world" challenge (Original Forum Thread), but lacked the internet to upload a video.

I got impatient and compressed it down a bit (expect 240p) and here it is!

Again, sorry for the bad quality.
Enjoy!

EDIT: Re-uploaded the video in HD.
Enjoy!

Excellent, excellent! Very creative route. I suppose this is frontpage quality. Smile

Really, really nice. Even without waiting for a better quality video, FRONTPAGE THAT GUY!

So, finally, the trick was to use "Empy hand" button and to be fast... Maybe I'll try that. By the way, my route until the second window was very different from yours. But you managed to do it, so you're now kind of the master of the world Smile

Oh, finally, let me tell you a video encoding trick : never encode in a single pass Smile

Thanks guys!

I will (hopefully this time) upgrade my internet next week, so MAYBE (BIG MAYBE) I will upload the HD one then.
Does anyone of you know which video codec offers the best quality/size ratio?

And thanks for my first frontpage, and the site in general, stabguy! (And for embedding the video on TheHiddenBlade, I was meaning to do that, but lacked the technical skill.) Smile

According to me, H264 for video and AAC for audio (MP4 file format). Another possibility is DivX for video and MP3 for audio (AVI file format). And, again, never encode in a single pass.

If you don't want to "masturbate your brain" (as we say in french), just use Anri-Chan, the software from Speed Demos Archive : http://kb.speeddemosarchive.com/Anri-chan

The only skill to have is to write [youtube] XXX [/youtube] where XXX is like /watch?v=XXX in the youtube link.

At 0:10 in your video, I used the ladder and made a back jump to catch the ledge on the tower, then a climb leap jump to go ahead.

Then, from 0:48, I ran on the ledge on the left, and continued with the kind of houses at the corner. I don't know if it's slower because finally Ezio was grabbing a ledge the whole time, whereas you run sometimes, and then use your fast method to re-catch the ledge at 2:29.

At 5:20, I continued on the left of the castle. I know there's a glitch, but I remember I had a method to stay blended.

At 6:25, to go to the pillar, I used a wooden thing that is in this area, jumping on it from one of the ledge, then back on the other side of a bigger wall.

But I was blocked at the bottom of the pillar because you have to use high profile to climb it, and this should destroy the blending.
