ROTW #61 - zhady on kz_man_owtcity

By Ovidiu Dumitru·
Hello there, and welcome to the 61st edition of the Run Of The Week!

How many of you thought that he will be back one day, delighting us again with his oldschool style and astonishing demos ? Well zhady is in the spotlight again, at least briefly for all we know, giving us the pleasure to watch two new remarkable demos from him, both released in the #576th demo release, one of them, kz_man_owtcity done in 03:25.03 being chosen for this ROTW edition. As a short notice, for everyone of you to have a clue about the earlier times in kz, this map, in 2007, was made by another legendary jumper, namely FikoN, in 04:16. You can see how much we developed through all these years.

Well, for those of you who know zhady, any additional words would be pointless. For those of you who don't know zhady, expect to feel the oldschool days, with a developed jumping skill worthy of today's standards. Now I'm asking you, my dear audience, what could be better than an oldschool demo ? Probably more oldschool demos, right ?

Like having one oldschool icon wasn't enough, this ROTW we also have in the spotlight an oldschool mapper as the guest feature and creator of this ROTW video, namely Perdo. This talented mapper is the man behind maps like j2s_sandland, kz_kzsk_forsaken and kz_kzsk_desperados. We can view Perdo now as multitalented as he shows that he is filmmaker material too, making from zhady's demo a smooth and enjoyable video for us to watch.
Hopefully, some of you are interested in what Perdo has to offer in the near future, mapping wise, because I'm about to reveal some projects that he is working on. At the moment, his top priority is a collaboration with yet another oldschol mapper, s0liD on a map named (kz)_cavefalls and then a KZSK community block project. He was kind enough to show us a sneak peak from the community project : http://perdo.kzsk.sk/cmp_map00032.png.

That's it for now. Watch below this ROTW and let us know what did you think in the comments section.

Great news :)

18/07/2011 19:33:00

great job CyccloP! I really enjoyed reading this desc. :) On ROTW, that was different from the other ones, acutally liked it. The song was a bit too loud and ingame sounds not enough tho. Also great run zhady. GJ everyone involved

18/07/2011 19:42:00

I'm not fan of the songs and I think the color correction looks a bit "smoky", other than that I really liked the idea of the HUD, and of course the run :)

18/07/2011 19:46:00

the edit was great but didn't like the song :X 8/10 :P

18/07/2011 19:49:00

gj both !! zhady i love ur strafes :)

18/07/2011 19:53:00

Gj cyclopp, really liked the big commentary. Also the run was very enjoyable.

18/07/2011 19:59:00

Nice rotw and good news about mapping, really looking forward to these maps!

18/07/2011 20:05:00

Xtreme-Jumps presents xxx's amazing run on kz_xxx chosen from the #xxxth demo release, transformed by Airwalk Media's filmmaker xxx into visual art, based solely on his filmmaking imagination => a beautiful text :) gj :D nice description, I think we have to thank [flag]in[/flag] prad and [flag]bg[/flag] nobody for this description :D Exceptional run :) zhady, I really hope it was a comeback .... Time for getting back to your throne,king :) Nice song, I really enjoyed the idea of using that kind of songs ... Im really so tired of those stupid dubstep songs or rock ones .... non-sense :)I liked the colors, oldschool remining , at least for me. Yea and not to forget : release that map :D looks sooooo awesoooome .

18/07/2011 20:10:00

I really liked the song, so I liked the rotw too =D Btw the hud was not necessary imo.

18/07/2011 20:11:00

finally i can watch a simple clean run, no shity useless intros of 40seconds and no outros, thats the way to go Pedro #1

18/07/2011 20:11:00

zadi ftw

18/07/2011 20:14:00

gj zhady! keep it up

18/07/2011 20:16:00

shitty colors

18/07/2011 20:20:00

akkord: +1 This is how the ROTW's should be!

18/07/2011 20:24:00

MEGA RUN !

18/07/2011 20:30:00

i`m glad to see new demo by legendary player.respect zhady :up:

18/07/2011 20:32:00

After seeing this movie, I already know who is the Kreedz Master! :first:

18/07/2011 20:35:00

ye i agree with akkord. awesome run by a legendary player ! i hope u keep on making Wr's :D

18/07/2011 20:37:00

zhady still can do it :)

18/07/2011 20:53:00

+1 all coments and includes the chatbo

18/07/2011 20:59:00

zhady, wicked run :) about the rotw, yeah, good it's plain, but colors were horrible. if you want to keep it clean and edit colors just a bit, why do you add only blue tint? just little contrast and that would be it :)

18/07/2011 21:07:00

First rotw i watched till the end. Really sick run and a beautiful clean edit :)

18/07/2011 21:23:00

love ur demos zhady

18/07/2011 21:24:00

Great run and nice map history + movie project idea :P

18/07/2011 21:24:00

Hoooolyyy hoooolyyy was the words I said when I read s0lid doing a new map. Probably a new hit map incoming with Perdo's excellent artistic eye and thememaking skills map will be awesome :) can't wait! Like I've always said zhady is the king of KZ, run is bloody awesome even with a few bhops missing.

18/07/2011 21:24:00

really smooth run :) I only disliked the songs. gj Perdo anyways xD

18/07/2011 21:30:00

Gargoyle: Actually, you get it wrong. s0liD isn't doing any map right now. The map was created back in 2007 by him, now I am finishing it so it can be released.

18/07/2011 21:59:00

one of the best rotw's so far,only thing I didn't liked was that song transition can't wait to see that map

18/07/2011 22:03:00

Got to be one of my favorite ROTWs, and same goes for the run. Incredible

18/07/2011 22:06:00

Didnt like the color, other than that great video and run!

18/07/2011 22:07:00

18/07/2011 22:44:00

one of the best ROTW's

18/07/2011 22:45:00

I really liked this ROTW. The edit was clean and simple, the songs used were different from the usual drum n' bass and last but not least, the demo chosen was indeed sick. I hope to see more edits like this one in the future. Good job, Perdo and zhady.

18/07/2011 23:41:00

nice rotw good job :)

19/07/2011 00:05:00

19/07/2011 01:14:00

19/07/2011 01:49:00

Oh, only info I read was this posts info and it wasn't mentioned that you resurrected an old map. Anyway what I was saying s0lid made great jumps when he still mapped so atleast we have them ^^

19/07/2011 02:28:00

19/07/2011 02:45:00

beatiful run gj both

19/07/2011 03:18:00

19/07/2011 03:29:00

Absolutley awesome from the description to the run and the edit was nice and clean which i like :) Good job every one that was involved!

19/07/2011 03:51:00

No one takes owtcity to zhady, got it bitches? haha damn.. saw zhady countless times on this map, and that's still so god damn impressive. Love that old school style, the best. edit-side : As ndR said, the colors looks quite smoky, the first song was just perfect, but I don't know why you just switched from nowhere.. (?) And 2 songs is WAY too much for a ROTW.. Sorry man :l Liked it overall. LOVE that style, damn.

19/07/2011 05:30:00

nice run and edit, gj perdo

19/07/2011 07:03:00

19/07/2011 13:15:00

nice simple edit, not the best one i've seen in the rotw series but still pleasing for the eye. run was great, despite the few unfortunate fails.

19/07/2011 13:30:00

Remarkable stuff! First of all, I'd like to thank [b]CyclopP[/b] for this eye-catching description, it was a pleasure reading it! Great edit, [b]Perdo[/b], you sure know what does the audience want! I just sit back and enjoyed! Really clean! Definitely my favourite ROTW. 10/10 :first: [b]zhady[/b], during the years you had amazed me more than once, actually your skills amaze me all the time! Great run dude, really! You sure brought the oldsql feeling back and I want to thank you for that! In conclusion, I am really happy to see that the community is still alive! New maps,new maps, NEW MAPS! :happy:

19/07/2011 13:33:00
