Lets Catch Up

Alright so, I spose you’ve noticed theres been a lack of updates and activity for a little bit now.

Unfortunately, I havn’t been able to get the work that I wanted to get done on episode 4 done. I’m in the middle of moving(again) and just have not had the time to really focus on Episode 4. I promise once I’m settled in you should hear a lot more about Episode 4. On the other hand, I was able to sit down and put the website under a new host. Props to Eternal Infamy for hosting the site, check him out.

Some good news about RCS though, YouTube announced they’ve upped their limit to 15 minutes. So I’ll be going back into Episode 4 and adding more. The extra 5 minutes doesn’t seem like THAT much, but it’s going to help a lot. Usually I have to cut and chop up episodes to fit the 10 minute limit, but now I won’t have that problem. You’d be surprised how much gets cut out of episodes on me.

Thanks for the support everybody, for those 2 people who still read the site by now. :P

April Update

Not going to lie, I was considering releasing an april fools episode, but that’d be mean. =P

Anyways! Episode 4 is getting into it’s later stages, we’re finalizing the script and starting on the lines. So if you’ve been worrying that you won’t know what will happen to Leon and Claire, worry no more. As for a release date, I can’t give one yet. But once I get closer to completion, I’ll definitely fill you all in.

In other news, the site will be switching hosts soon as well as being redesigned, I figured the site needed to be redone. Anyways, thanks for checking in guys. I’ll keep you all updated.

February Update

I uploaded Episode 3 to the site, it’s now available for download from the RCS page.

Other than that, not much else is new other than progress on Episode 4. Can’t really give a release date for it yet though, were still in pre-production on it(aka were still writing it and still grabbing footage). I’ll keep you all updated on it.

Happy New Years!

Happy New Years everybody!

I have a New Years present for everyone, that being, episode 3! Weskershouse from The-Ward Productions has also given everybody a New Years present with Episode 7 of Days of Our Lives: Resident Evil!

You can watch them here…
Episode 3: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FXksvSNmWqc
Episode 7: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5oCNuuboOfA

So there they are! What everybody has waited so long for.
I apologize for the delays, I promise episode 4 won’t take so long to get out.
Thanks for the support everybody!

Sooo…

I probably should explain why it’s October and there’s still no sign of episode 3. I guess I misjudged time and ended up being unable to finish it before I moved. So, it’s only now that I finally got my desktop back that I am able to finish episode 3.

I apologize for yet another delay.

Small Update

Episode 3 is nearly done! The script is complete, all thats left is getting the lines recorded and we’ll have it released by this weekend.

I’ll also be uploading ep3, and the finals of ep1/2 for download to the website. Along with that, the first episode of the new machinima series I talked about previously will be released mid-late September.

August Update!

Hey all! It’s a very hectic month for me as I just got my wisdom teeth out, all the while packing and getting ready to move out.

Okay so first off, episode 3 is looking good. The deadline won’t be missed this time around, it’s really awesome seeing the final touches being done. When you start an episode you usually have no clue how the final product is going to look. I started this episode nearly a year ago, so it’s been through so much development at this point that we’re making sure it’s up to our standards. With episode 3 nearing completion, I’ve already started on ideas for the next few episodes. I can say I’m very psyched to get to work on the next episodes!

Second off, I gotta say, I never knew people appreciated RCS so much. First a MySpace fangroup, now subbed episodes of Raccoon City Stories! Check it out here! Props to Berumi and her translators for their awesome work.

Finally, the new machinima is near completion, and episode 1 will be arrivingĀ  soon after episode 3 of RCS is released! I’ll also be uploading the updated versions of Episode1/2/SE1 of RCS on the site. So August is going to be a busy month for us at Barley Productions!

Update

So I’m in the midst of my fourth or fifth move within a year and a half. So the updates on here have been lacking, but we still plan on having Episode 3 released by the end of August at most. We also plan on having the new horror-survival machinima released too. So keep checkin’ in.

MySpace Fangroup?!

A kickass fan named Caitlin has created an awesome MySpace fangroup for DOOL/RCS.

So if you have MySpace and are cool pants, you should totally join.
It helps me and Shaun know we still have fans who havn’t bailed on waiting yet. XD

Edit: Some people are having trouble with that link. If it doesn’t work for you try this one.

Oops…

So it’s June… Nearly July, annnd episode 3 still isn’t online.

Episode 3 is very close to being finished, the problem is, right now me nor Shaun have the means to work on it. It was meant for a April/May release but we ended up getting very busy and when we did get time to work on it, the project corrupted. Coupled with the hardware and software problems I had towards the beginning of the year, that also pushed episode 3 back. When we started episode 3, we never intended the wait for it to be so long, our original intentions was a Christmas release. Obviously, we missed that deadline.

Once me and Shaun get the time to sit down and really work on it, we’ll have it completed, no doubt. A lot of factors have caused it to take this long to be pushed back. Personal things, hardware/software problems, finding the time to work on it, etc… I can promise that RCS is not dead or forgotten about. It’s been something we’ve been trying to get too but due to our busy schedules we keep having to push it back.

I will say the wait between episode 3-4 will definitely not be as long as the wait for episode 3 has been, we never intended for it be this long. I log on daily and read all my comments and messages so I know people want another episode. My goal is a summer release, I can’t be more specific than that, even if I wanted too. I may not have 10,000 subscribers, or even 1,000 subscribers, but I appreciate the small amount of subscribers I do have and I hate the fact you guys are STILL waiting for episode 3. So I’ll try my best to make sure it’s out sooner than later.

Thanks for sticking with us this long guys!
