Have tried two VR chess apps, dont remember the name. I was not impressed.

My experiences with VR. Some things it is great for. Some things not. One needs to know what to use it with, than it is fantastic.

Jim,

would you mind to put the latest posts, VR related, into that linked thread?



After all, I wanted to post a new video only.

Fahrtenbuch 05

Again, from Münster to Osnabrück.

This tour probably is a bit monotonous to view in the first 45 minutes, since in that time its over 20 minutes just following the Dortmund-Ems-Channel, and then another 15 minutes in a region where the corn was standing high and blocked the view, even more so since I have installed the camera quite low to avoid unwanted attention. Also, the film is quite long. So I recommend, if you are even interested at all, to not just quit when you got bored, but jump either to around 47. minute when the small town of Lengerich was reached, or jump to 1 hour 17 minutes when Hellern was reached, the outskirt of Osnabrück, or some minutes later the centre of Osnabrück.

In any case make sure, at least if you are even interested, that you watch from 1 hour 25 minute on. On that tour I spent much time in the old town and centre, drove circles and zig-zagged to cover the touristic hotspots and the better part of the old town, walked the pedestrian zone, so one really can see that the small old town of Osnabrück may be small, but is really beautiful and attractive. That part of the film is the entire remaining 20 minutes, and its the reason why I even cared to post this.

Not all of Osnabrück is as beautiful like seen here, many parts are not, the town is a worker city, and is quite poor, too. But it has some more nice spots, and the real beauty is the surrounding landscape anyway.

The way from the ice cream parlor (I lived near to that place in the first three years) into the old town was my daily tour most of the week's days when I studied there. I never stopped enjoying that ride and tour, 5km. I always avoided the main streets, since they were ugly, and traffic heavy.

The way back home will follow later, again there were a few sequences showing the beautiful landscape of the Osnabrücker Land.

The fourth and last tour variant for the way "there". It is the furthest east and longest tour and makes a wide hook in the direction of Bad Iburg. As it is just unavoidable, the individual routes close to the origin and destination places are close together and overlap, that can not be avoided.

At some point, No. 6 and 8 with the two return trips für Nr. 5 and 7 will follow, and then this "documentation project" will be completed.

Sechs. Dies ist das Anschlussvideo zu Film 05 mit der Rückfahrt.






Eins noch (Rückfahrt zu Film 7), dann ist es nach zwei Jahren geschafft.

It's done, this is the return trip to Fahrtenbuch 07, so all four "transit routes" I drive between Münster and Osnabrück are "documented", each route once in each direction of travel, makes eight movies.

5-8 have musictracks. The first four had not since I had no royalty-free source of music of according length, but meanwhile I found some material at youtube I could use, its royalty-free.

Cruising just for killing time.



Oh dear, I messed up German grammar in the title , and at ~ 00:07:00ff I forgot to make a cut. The pause lasts just seconds, I changed bike battery then, then drove back a bit and turned again so to have a loop that would allow me to edit a good, "invisible" cut. But i just forgot to do it in post-processing. No biggie, however, just a few seconds.

You obviously got your kwiggel back on the road again, can't hold a good man back!
A shame to see all the graffiti.
