Through the comments and stories shared via the survey, we've learned. The company that was called. RAD Game Tools, in particular the video software.

Bink. It's performance went well beyond our expectations. The encoder is very easy to use, and the memory footprint is surprisingly small, resulting in a great performance. If we hadn't used BINK, we may well have had to reduce the number of playable characters from three to two, due to resource limitations. You. can't beat the quality of the software or the excellent service you get. RAD Game Tools team.

The last thing we want is for compression to diminish video quality, and thankfully, we've been quite pleased at the results we're getting from using Bink in Gears of War and Unreal Tournament 3. RAD tools pack a powerful punch as they're easy to use, and the end results are awesome.! It is an astounding all- round achievement; the picture quality is truly better than DVD, the compression ratios are far in advance of anything I've ever seen, and to top it all off the decoder is damn fast!

The Bink Tools are blissfully easy to use with plenty of fine control options and the Bink SDK is so easy to integrate - it took me literally 2. Bink up and running in Star. Lancer. Trust me on this one, there is no better video codec on the market than RAD Game Tools' Bink. It was the port of an arcade game with a sprawling codebase, written originally on Windows and then ported to Linux.

We turned to Bink and Miles to replace the movie and audio subsystems, both of which integrated easily. Our game plays up to 2.

Bink, streaming off the DVD player. This was an incredibly aggressive playback need and memory constraint. Bink performs wonderfully, and without it we could not have shipped this game. Surround Sound and localization needs were easily addressed with the Bink audio mixing system. It was just what we wanted. It is one of the very few pieces of middleware that we use at Rebellion. It's powerful and fast, but more to the point, it just works exactly the way it should.

Rad Game Tools' support is fantastic. The perfect middleware combination.! Bink rocks my world! Performance and memory posed few problems and disc interfacing was transparent. We found it to be a solid package with a straightforward interface and good support. It looks sweet and I haven't had any problems with the API.

Holmes, Dream. Forge. You have no idea what nightmare it was to get our app to work with Direct. Show back in January. Also, the action is really smooth. We switch videos all the time without a single glitch, and the speed is definitely better. Engineer, Destineer Studios. We didn't receive a single support email regarding problems with our in- game movies and in the PC world that is a miracle.

Perhaps just as importantly to us, RAD Games proved forward thinking, adaptable and cooperative in helping us move ahead with a new business model in an area that is often mired in conservatism and obsolescence. This constraint gave our animations very strict size and length constraints. With Bink our animators can make our monster animations as long and as beautiful as they want without running the risk of hitting hardware constraints. Because of the nature of Bink videos, we were able to reduce our app's memory footprint by 5. I found the SDK to be well documented and easy to use. After I figured out what I was doing in regards to i. OS shaders I was able to get 4 Bink videos running simultaneously at 3.

I look forward to bumping this number up in the near future as device capabilities increase. Everything you want from an SDK. Artificial Intelligence Machine for Windows. Border. Zone for Windows, Cuban Missile Crisis for Windows, Stalingrad for.

Unfortunate Implications - TV Tropes. Despite this, sometimes something appears that.. Even when authors are being careful with story elements, it is impossible for them to know every single person in the world's opinion or how certain tropes may be construed as offensive. Especially when you consider just how diverse human beings really are. When a work's content offends a large enough audiences in a way that the author did not expect, you get this. Citations are done as follows. Blah Story Blah Blah Circumstance Blah Blah Implication Blah.

Example Website The citation needs to record the opinions of several people; a citation that mentions only one person isn't enough. We'd prefer you cite something a bit more formal than someone's Tumblr blog.

Anyone can write a blog post and then call it a . If people can't see your proof, then it doesn't prove much. An intended offensive message (for example, a piece of Nazi propaganda about Jews) does not belong here, nor does natter about the author's true intentions. Also, for something that may not be offensive to you personally but may offend others in a different culture or time period (or vice versa), see Values Dissonance.

If something with this kind of content offends everyone, regardless of audience or time or place, then it's an Audience- Alienating Premise. If unfortunate implications are caused for the modern audience by once innocent words changing meaning over time, it's Have a Gay Old Time. Several companies have caught on and now consciously try to avert this, including Kiyonna, which honestly makes an effort to have its models be people who would actually wear their clothing in their everyday lives. Even plus- size (if you will) models are altered, which can seem unnatural, but it's more noticeable here. The tagline . After it caught a lotof flack, it got banned, despite being edited twice. Said groups weren't amused. T42 Multimedia Audio Controller Driver. An ad campaign from The Economist aimed at women used its traditional brand of quirky humor when it said on the front, ?

They shouldn't. 2. In fact, there was a Twitter hashtag (#Not. Buying. It) in anticipation of the rampant misogyny, with the . There was a small- scale press outcry after viewer complaints that these were racist metaphors, but after a formal investigation by a regulatory body, the complaints weren't upheld. Cravendale had an advert in which an angry bull's black patches are removed, leaving it white and .

Naturally, there were complaints, though the Advertising Standards Authority ultimately deemed it . In particular, one radio ad was banned for implying that closing curtains or not speaking to neighbours is suspicious enough activity to merit reporting someone to the police. The ad received a number of complaints that it implied that being abducted/presumably raped was her own fault, and encouraged victim- blaming. Even leaving the aside the question of what anything in this scenario had to do with Mountain Dew, the ad implied that white people cannot tell the difference between a black man and a goat.

The fact that it played heavily on racist stereotypes and violence against women as well, all Played for Laughs, didn't help matters. She then fantasizes about using the box on her husband, transforming him into a handsome man who does all the chores for her and sets up a dinner date for her (at which point she is brought back to reality by her real husband farting loudly). The implications that Women Are Wiser and that men who don't toil away for their significant others are neanderthals were not lost on commentators.

Several gothic commentators pointed out that IKEA had managed to offend a group who actually LIKED a lot of their products and were unhappy with IKEA perpetuating negative stereotypes of goths. The reality is that impoverished people and homosexuals already are the groups with the highest risk of meth addiction, particularly in the northern and midwestern United States. Supporters have pointed out that the poor and gay characters in the ads are depicting a realistic example, and it's only the audience who assumes that they weren't poor or gay to begin with, but most of them depict at least upper- middle- class teenagers, often girls, from good families, and the ads that reference male homosexuality depict it as predatory and abusive. They depicted Jewish Americans as ignorant of Jewish history and culture, while their patient and intelligent Israeli partners or family members struggled in vain to educate them. The ads seemed to imply that Israeli Jews are the only . Needless to say, many Jewish Americans found this deeply insulting and the ads were pulled.

Might also be a case of You Are What You Hate, since many of the earliest official Israeli citizens were American- born. Apparently, someone in marketing submitted it as a potential name because it was a non- trademarked word that sounded cool, and the company didn't do the research that would have revealed that they were about to sell a women's athletic shoe named after male Horny Devils. The company quickly apologized and recalled the product when this came to their attention. In order to illustrate this, the shirts had cardboard cutouts that had photos of kids printed on them while in stores. The controversy occurred when one of the shirts with a monkey's body was paired with an African- American child, unintentionally referencing the . In it, a group of white teens are seen traveling to an indigenous Mexican village with the intention of spreading Christmas joy; they give away bottles of Coke to the sad- looking natives and build them a Christmas tree made out of soda bottles. The ad was widely panned for its White Man's Burden theme and was immediately pulled.

Bloomingdale's subsequently apologized for the gaffe, but were unable to pull it, as all copies of the print catalog had already been sent out. One of these features a Toys- R- Us ad from 1. It showcases kids from an older ad and then shows them 2. The unfortunate implication here is that these people never did grow up. The Red Cross had to issue an apology when a pool safety poster showed the lighter- toned characters acting safely and following the rules, while the ones painted with darker skin tones were the ones breaking the rules.

The message was that giving blood is a much simpler way of doing good. These PSAs attractedsomecriticism for implying that social activism is a waste of time and only makes things worse. Kendall Jenner, who is modeling nearby, decides to join the protest and offers a Pepsi to one of the police offers, eliciting a roar of applause from the protesters and apparently mending relations. Despite its intended message about peace, the ad was widely panned and pulled from television due to co- opting the very serious and controversial- at- the- time issue of police brutality and their protests to simply sell a product. Also rather disliked was the fact that rich, white, and privileged Kendall Jenner is the one to mend issues, while police brutality frequently targets poor and underprivileged minorities. The minor character Hannya had a featureless death- mask of a face beneath the mask he wears in battle.

Watsuki noted in the liner notes to manga volume 4 that originally he planned Hannya to have been stepped on in the womb like the Elephant Man. After thinking it through, he realized Unfortunate Implications abounded with the idea (. To avoid this, Watsuki altered the backstory to Hannya having intentionally mutilated his own face into that death- mask so that he could easily disguise himself as anything. Most of the female cast have roughly the same body type, with Barbie Doll- like proportions of wide hips, thin waists, and large breasts, and often similar faces as well. As well, the article mentions an incident where Sanji, who is supposed to be one of the sympathetic protagonists, is switched into the body of his crewmate Nami, on whom he has a crush, and takes the opportunity to sexually harass her with her own body.
