For PoP2, there was a "Princess in Danger 2" on the PoPUW forum by mk1995. And "Away and Challenged, Yet Again" by Eagle-Head Priest 97.
I'm not sure they were finished, though.

I will PM Eagle-Head Priest; will ask him if his mod was ever finished.
mk1995's mod was apparently abandoned, only 4 levels were finished.

I've recently found out (Augiasz told me via e-mail) that princeofpersia.ppa.pl has been around since 2000.
I'll mention it with the rest of the 2000 stuff in the = 1990s and 2000 = section.

All right, what I plan to do is end the video with a list of first names, people who are or were into PoP modding.
(That's what it will say above the list, not "Credits".)
Just the first names, I won't include the names of docs or tools or whatever.
Right now, what I have is:

Ahmed, Alan, Alex, Alexandr, Alexandru, Alexey, Andrea, Andy, Anke, Arun, Brendon, Christian, Csaba, Danny, Dávid, Dawid, Diego, Dmitriy, Dongsoo, Eero, Enrique, Esteban, Fabrizio, Florian, Grzegorz, Gustavo, Hubai, István, Jalal, Jenny, João, Jordin, Khalid, Khushal, Kirill, Kor, Maciej, Marc, Mateusz, Matthew, Maurice, Michal, Micheal, Michel, Nardeen, Nicolas, Nikolay, Norbert, Olli, Patrik, Paul, Paweł, Péter, Piotr, Piter, Ricardo, Rob, Robert, Rodrigo, Roger, Santiago, Sarah, Scott, Seth, Steve, Steven, Tammo Jan, Tomas, Tristan, Yongmook

This list is fairly complete. I'll end it with "...and many more" (or something).
I still need to private message a couple of people (like spartacus735 and Eagle-Head Priest) to ask their first names and I'll ask poirot a thing or two, and then it's ready.
One small problem though: I don't know KingOfPersia's first name, the creator of Repetition Of Time. Maybe Jalal knows, I'll contact him.

[Edit: Two more first names after e-mailing with poirot: Danny and Yongmook]

If you mean htamas: Although his full name is Hubai Tamás (as he wrote in, for example, the drawmap source, and in the Format Specifications), he wrote his name according to the name order usual for Hungarian names, that is, family-name given-name.
So if you want to include first names, then it's Tamás.

Err, yes, you're right.
Will fix that in a next update.

I'm going to record the audio (narrative) this weekend.
David, you're going to stick with the "Pr1SnesLevEd" name? (See what I wrote about this here.)
If so, how could I best pronounce it, as Pee Ar One Snesleved, or pr-one-snesleved, or...

On a side note, what about the program's logo.
Is there anything in the related thread that you think is usable?
I personally sorta like the lower left image here, where the prince is looking up, because it also looks acceptable at 16x16.
But obviously, it's up to you to decide. You could even pick images you think could work and make create a poll about it or whatever.

"Pee Ar One Snesleved" sounds better.

Okay, but it needs to be brightened. It's too dark within a bright window frame.
I'm not sure if its background should be transparent.

About the poll: Not many people posted concrete ideas in the existing topic about the logo. I don't know whether more people would post in a poll.

Woot! I've finally finished recording the narrative. :)
I had to rewrite a couple of small things here and there, but mostly the text stayed the same.
All the audio files together are 9 minutes, so that + the (mod, ...) footage when I'm not talking should fit nicely in a max. 15 minute YouTube video.
I can now finish collecting all the screenshots and footage for the video.
How long that'll take, I don't know, but I look forward to editing the whole thing and finishing this project.

Attached is the narrative (as 34 MP3 files). It'll accompany the visual presentation (screenshots, video footage).
If you want certain screenshots or video footage to be added to the PoP modding video, please post them here or private message them to me no later than 21 July...
...because I've decided that I will finish the video in (the beginning of) week 30.

(sorry for my late update, I was very busy with my studies)

I attached two "mini" walkthroughs of two of my mods: The Deserted Dungeons and The Shadow and The Flame Remake
They are pop_deserted (9 sec), and pop_tsatfrem (18 sec). If you think I must make them shorter please tell me.

No need. I'll only use a 5 second fragment of one of them though.
Probably seconds 2.5-7.5 of pop_deserted.avi.
Thanks for creating the videos.

This is an example of what the images (that will accompany the narrative) will look like.
This will accompany 02.mp3. (First only the Apple ][ stuff will be shown. The DOS and SNES stuff will fade in during the related audio.)

I've got all resources prepared and ready for action, so it's just a matter of editing now.
I'm a perfectionist, so it's all still a lot of work - more than I thought, to be honest.
I have no idea how much more work it is. I planned for the video to be ready tomorrow, but I'm not sure if I'll make that.
Should be ready this week though, no doubt.

Hm... I've been so busy this morning that I didn't see your post and the export just finished, so I'm ready with the video.
I think I'm going to keep it the way it is, with noise and all. The video is not perfect, I don't mind.
Thanks for the tip though, I may use that tool for future videos.

Here it is:



Obviously it isn't perfect, but it could be useful to introduce people to PoP modding.
Later today I'll link to the video from the main pages of princed.org, popot.org, and I'll mention it on Facebook.

I'm not going to make changes to it, it's done.
I want to move on to other projects; still have the next apoplexy version to finish, to name something...
