I was due to give a wee demonstration of my game for an online Scots language event, and I planned to reveal the new trailer for it. I rehearsed it last night with the host of the event and everything went well and the host gave me pointers.
Fast Forward to tonight, and Zoom decided to crash every time I tried to share my screen, it had worked perfectly until today. I didn’t think to upload a copy beforehand, so spent most of the event waiting for it to upload to Youtube. We just barely got it in the last minute of the show!
Was kind of a disaster, but hey, wasn’t my fault! I should upload whatever I stream next time to avoid what happened in the future…

And you’re now one experience richer! 😄I held a presentation once about a short project I’d done in an academic tool. The biggest problem I’d had was the abysmal lack of documentation. The dev manual was filled with TODO placeholders. I decided to show it live and the manual had been updated literally a few hours before my presentation and was suddenly complete! ”As you see this isn’t very helpfu… Oh. It is…” · 4 months ago
