    Thank you for the post and explanation and more importantly, addressing your customer base.

    As for the video. Holy shit that's sweet. Up until now, I have been ambivalent to the remake, preferring the original. This is the equalizer and actually could compel me to seek out an mmr to own. Kudos.

    Quoted from dmbjunky:

    Well I guess I've read other people state on the forums that the ColorDMD platform is powerful enough to do that, for what that's worth. But ColorDMD relies on the community to actually do the work. So I would the cost wouldn't necessarily go up because they're pretty much getting donated help. There is always going to be some really dedicated people that would do that for their favorite game.

    I'm not savy on the tech but it was always my understanding it's an IP issue. If I understand correctly, ColorDMD skirts the ip issue because it colors the frames on the fly and doesn't alter the assets. If ColorDMD redrew the frames similar to what Chicago has done, they would be infringing on the ip. Therefore, ColorDMD will forever be limited to the originally rendered artwork. Again, I could be wrong but that's my understanding of it.
