cool. it does use a version resource already, if there is anything else you need let me know.
i'm a big fan of pimpbot, since writing install scripts is such a fag and mistakes like not detetcting the path can be avoided.
globmgr is all thats missing that we needed. i forgotthat texer ii comes with winamp :/

well, i guess it wont be released before mid of june or something, so it's still some time to go.
btw would it be a big problem if someone contributed only one preset?
Warrior of the Light
7th April 2005 22:37 UTC
You mean you can only build one good preset in a month?
C'mon.. just send two presets.
It's more fun for the remixers and it's good for your status to have two presets instead of one (+ mixes of course) to show the masses :D
For the remixes I wouldn't mind as much since there are two remixers now. (actually 4 remixes per artist would make the pack huge, I think ~3 remixes is a good aim)
Reasons to have two remixers: More variety for the remixer + a slimmer chance of having non-remixable presets at all (not that anyone will be submitting those because you've been told in advance, but... :p)

Well I dont want to sound elitist to all you pathetic noobs below me (oops, too late), but it takes longer for me to make a preset than you, plus I have to balance it with real life(tm), watching The Simpsons and jerking off to pr0... er... other miscellaneous stuff.

i say I am swamped with work (4 weeks left of school, ever), and will be unable to make a preset by the deadline.
However, I should be able to crank out some remixes as they take less time.
Shylent
19th April 2005 19:15 UTC
WOtL: You can search for my posts. I have like 5 of them :) I bet. And I dont think that those presets are total junk, anyway.

19th April 2005 22:09 UTC
ok, what about that: shylent posts let's say 2 posts a day untill the deadline. Then we can call him a frequent forums member ;)
Joking apart, as we already said in the beginning this project should be a pack made by the "more or less frequent ones at wa.com". And since i'm running into some problems finishing my work, too (like everyone does recently...) i'd also say the more the better. So we could still concentrate on the remixing part.

Yea, and thanks alot :)

19th April 2005 23:56 UTC
everyone sends in his work to wotl, who randomly forwards the presets made by two artist's to one participator. Then you have the opportunity to choose the presets you like most and remix them. Afterwards the remixes are also going to get collected and complied (together with the 'normal' presets) to one huge pack.

C'mon people, I've hardly received any presets!!
Don't start discussing why, rather create presets for the compilation instead

for the remixes we should say another 3-4 weeks? Not too short, cause untill end of march i'll still have pretty much stress with my studies.

1st May 2005 04:33 UTC
Meh.. I missed the deadline... oh well. Can I still make the intro? Heres a little something I've whipped up. There is a little z-fighting but I can remove that by subdividing the tris a bit.
Who wants their name in 3D text?
needs latest ver of triangle that i didnt already have... so i've included it in the zip (its on devart).

I dont mind doing everyones names and some obscenely complicated animation method on account of its all just 3d models converted to gvm and the z-buffering makes the occlusion quite easy.
may 4th... that should give me enough time to finish the textured model preset that I am working on. :)
jheriko
1st May 2005 09:19 UTC
Heres a slightly better version of that text, with some colour change and more detail and some different subdivision to hide more z-fighting. The W is still a bit messy and i need to subdivide it more, also i left a few tris inside of the N by mistake and sometimes they 'pop through'.
If anyone has any cool ideas for this intro let me know... as long as they revolve around 3d text i could probably work it in somehow :)
jheriko
1st May 2005 10:58 UTC
maybe i should have waited until i got bored of working on this for a bit :P like now... heres how it looks now, i put a point light at the camera pos instead of the directional light and added specularity, these changes look okay because everything is subdivided so much, infact combined with the fadeout in the background i think it looks awesome.
feedback appreciated.
uses the same gvms as the previous ver (wfc2_w and wfc2_r)
^..^
1st May 2005 11:48 UTC
hey that intro is awesome jheriko! :up:
i don't know how much work it'd be. but what about starting the intro as it is and then moving the title a bit to the top. Now the names of the participants could appear from one side, stay a few seconds in the middle and then disappear to the other side. (Hope you get my idea.. ;))
So, it would be cool if you could add my name in 3D text either! Going to send my preset to wotl in 5 minutes!
jheriko
1st May 2005 13:59 UTC
you mean something like this?
notice the almost zero z-fighting :)
i had to put the gvms in a rar in a zip so that they were less than 102400... i'm sick of pumping my post count with continual attachment :P
overwrite the old gvms with these. it colors the 'winamp forums' text gold
^..^
1st May 2005 16:10 UTC
hey cool! that's what i meant!
But could you perhaps make the name appear a bit later?! Cause the two objects come too close in my eyes. I'd wait untill "winamp forums" is at the top, before the name should come in.
Nevertheless, the lightning and reflections are awesome!
jheriko
1st May 2005 17:22 UTC
denkensiefursic, goddamnit! such a long name that i had to rar the file containg the model for it before i zipped it. :P still it looks all the more awesome with bigger words...
I havent subdivided that name yet so its very z-fighty, you can see how many triangles are there in some places.. i tweaked the timings and movement a bit more... tell me what you think.
needs the previous files
wfc2_n1.gvm
wfc2_r.gvm
wfc2_g.gvm
wfc2_w.gvm
i'll compact all the models into one file for the pack, or we could stick them in the subdir... whichever is prefered (one fairly chunky file or lots of small ones?) btw this is quite size hungry... its already about 2-3mb :P
^..^
1st May 2005 18:29 UTC
Originally posted by jherikoyeah yeah... but it's just so cool! ;) Isn't it possible in any way to reduce the filesize for the pack? I guess a 10mb packsize (containing all member's names as 3D-text) is a bit too huge, isn't it?

I thought about that, checked everything I could think of. I dl'd the past 5 zips and put them straight into winamp\plugins\avs. J said he included the latest version of triangle.ape in the first zip so I don't know... I gotta feeling it's time for my 21st winamp reinstall.

11th May 2005 11:32 UTC
here is the other thing i was working on. its not finished at all yet :P
i still need to finish a new lighting model and to change the camera and crap to synch with a dm. optimise the model by removing redundant subdivisions and adding new ones to remove some more of the z-fighting (there is some still there if you look at the small details and edges of the wings), then cut it into thirds again and fill the engine holes with some texer ii... etc... basically... a lot more than a couple of minutes work :P
check it out anyway. its just the model with a 'light at camera' hax lighting system so you can see the texture materials etc... its a 2 part rar file which i then put the 2 parts into zip so they would be under the size limit... sorry for the hassle. the uncompressed gvm is 3mb :P

i couldnt tell you how long it took... several 'a few hour' sessions with winamp/sketch-up/objconv. The base model only took about 20-30 mins, but subdivision an adding details took up the rest

lets just say it will be a preset, instead of a demonstration... for once :P

I've decided that I suck at remixing. The first one went off without a hitch, but I'm having a lot of trouble with the other artist. If I can't whip something up quick, I may have to submit just one remix.
Along with Tugg, I'm wonding if WotL received my original presets. I submitted them twice, the second time with updated versions. One of my remixers PMd me and described receiving the first versions. Hopefully, though, the revised ones will make it into the pack. :)

Let's hope that our work wasn't in vain and this pack still can be finished...

i'm working on the intro atm. almost finished, i'll try my best to get it all done by 31st as well as the other preset.

good luck with that!

jheriko
31st May 2005 21:52 UTC
could we maybe extend the deadline by 8 hours or so please?
EDIT: PAK-9 will be back in a couple of days and would like to submit a preset. Would that be okay also?
Warrior of the Light
31st May 2005 21:54 UTC
Sure. You can have until about 20:00 your local time.
Mail me if you need more.
This also goes for everyone else. (20:00 GMT)

31st May 2005 23:26 UTC
i'm not sure when pak will send his preset. he said the next couple of days.
i just need a bit extra time to modify intro and finish my own preset. sorry for the delays.
^..^
1st June 2005 14:13 UTC
that's all right imo.
(As long as it's going to be finished somewhen during the next days... :) )
What about the problems that occured with the remixes/emails actually? Are those problems removed? Has every participant recieved/sent their stuff in?
Shylent
1st June 2005 15:23 UTC
Yea thats what I am wonderin. Here's the situation - WotL experiences some problems with attachments and people never say anything and then all of a sudden on 28th Mr Nudge realizes that he doesnt have any presets to remix. I am wondering if this is even gonna happen. Sorry for being pessimistic and dont take offense, anyone.
^..^
1st June 2005 17:05 UTC
well, but wotl couldn't recognize it until tug asked whether his mail was delivered or not. So, of course this was 'all of a sudden'. True but sad. :frown:
Nevertheless, let's keep at least a bit optimism! This pack will be released! :p
Warrior of the Light
1st June 2005 19:15 UTC
This is the first time I encounter difficulties with my email. (gmail in browser)
I emailed MrNudge together with everyone else and noone else has replied to me they didn't receive the email at all. When MrNudge started about it in the forums, it was just a few days before the deadline.
Tuggummi's first post didn't have an attachment when I got it, but did when he sent it away.
I replied, and he replied back but didn't say he had re-attached it. Again, it was not attached when I got it, so I didn't know he thought I had it.
We PM'ed each other about it and Tuggummi placed it somewhere on the web and gave the URL to me. I ve got his presets now.
I don't really like it, but it seems like I'm forced to accept some delay again.. Hurry up, guys.
^..^
1st June 2005 20:39 UTC
whose work is still missing actually? is there anyone who didn't sent anything back, but who got presets to remixes from you?
Warrior of the Light
1st June 2005 21:25 UTC
MrNudge never received his presets to remix; I didn't know about that until a few days before the deadline.
I've got the remixes back from:

Here's a pice of advice, maybe for WFC3 (but for god's sake let's at least have a 3 month break before even starting a thread on that). Don't take on jobs you can't carry out. These few months are my big dirty exams months, and I knew I wasn't gonna have a lot of free time. So I just volunteered to do mixes, and I got it done.
^..^
1st June 2005 21:40 UTC
i just browsed back to the begining of this thread to see who participated in the first part. And now i'm wondering what's about ASD5A? Didn't he want to remix something too?
Warrior of the Light
1st June 2005 22:33 UTC
Too late now anyway.
WFC3 will not begin right after WFC2. I already had that in mind.. (If there will even be a #3)
Let's at least wait until after the hollidays [sp?]
^..^
1st June 2005 22:39 UTC
Yeah, good idea!
Perhaps i'll be able to round off some presets and complie them to my first pack during summer (what i've actually been planning to do for a few months now)
jheriko
1st June 2005 23:13 UTC
maybe for wfc3 we have a huge deadline?
so ishan is not in the pack and i can scratch his name from intro?
^..^
1st June 2005 23:15 UTC
when i got it right he just wasn't able to submit any remixes. So i guess his presets will be in!
btw: what about the size of the intro? were you able to reduce it a bit? ;)

ASD5A
2nd June 2005 09:44 UTC
well the reason for me not haven´t submitted remixes is
that i have massive probs remixing.
well the wfc2 is released when pak-9 is finished.
so my remix goes out to wotl during the next hours.
ASD5A
2nd June 2005 10:27 UTC
remix is send..
jheriko
2nd June 2005 12:40 UTC
Everyone gets a little extra time for polish and finishing :)
I'm going to add self shadowing to my preset now I think... see you in 20 hours :P
^..^
2nd June 2005 13:31 UTC
well, i'll lean back and relax instead :p
already submitted my work and i don't think that i could do another remix in 20 hours...

2nd June 2005 20:16 UTC
I sent my preset to wotl's gmail account
Tuggummi
2nd June 2005 21:35 UTC
Oh! Now there's a great idea!
It's not like we've been talking the last 2 pages about how Wotl's gmail is b0rked and he doesn't actually get the attachments...
^..^
2nd June 2005 21:59 UTC
well, at least today it worked fine. i also sent him an attachment (updated remix) this afternoon and he didn't have any problems recieving it!
So, seems as if everything is alright again...

Well now that (supposedly) all of the presets and remixes are in, when might we expect to see the release? Anticipation is the worst. ;)

well usually anticipation is the best, but right now im also dying to see our finished work! :D

3rd June 2005 11:24 UTC
nah, i still have to finish a preset (if not done by end of today i'l mke a compromise out of my prototype) :P
the intro is done and sent to wotl tho.
Tuggummi
3rd June 2005 11:30 UTC
Quite selective working times with gmail eeh? :igor:
Anyway, i want to see the finished product too so...

All's done for now.. But how will I add the .gvm files to the pack? Normally, I'd pimpbot it all since I've never touched NSIS in my life, but Pimpbot doesn't support .GVM files (yet?).
Are there NSIS geeks around?
Yathosho, will there be an update for .gvm files?
other ideas?
I'd try creating it with another install program otherwise, but it's 1 AM here.. I really don't have the energy to go on anymore for it today.
I'll be awaiting replies until tomorrow evening (gmt+1) then I'll search around for other tools
edit: i will not post it here; the pack is 16.1MB :D
Tuggummi
7th June 2005 00:10 UTC
You could just let jheriko do the installer (if he has the time)
I think i have a simple NSIS script (from my AVSing days) still too which i could use, but the situation ain't that desperate yet ;)

Question: Will people even download a 16Mb pack?
Well, I, for myself, will, since im a participant. Have you thought about it?
PAK-9
7th June 2005 13:25 UTC
Your forgetting that nsis has support for ZLib, BZip2 and LZMA compression, and the largeness of the files is due to the .gvms (nice compressable text) so the final installer will likely be much smaller.
^..^
7th June 2005 16:52 UTC
let's hope so!
But i guess most people really don't care that much about the size. If it's worthy to be downloaded, they will download it cause it's cool.
Tuggummi
7th June 2005 17:13 UTC
The total size of Bitmapped II is 4,142 MB, compressed with NSIS i think the total size shrinked to about 1MB.
So if we do the math based on this, the total size of WFC2 could be about 4MB~ which really isn't that much with nowadays internet connections :igor:
beeferoni
7th June 2005 19:02 UTC
I am just an innocent bystander, and I would get this pack even if it were a 20 minute download. As ^..^ says, just 'cause it's cool. I can't wait to see the stuff you guys come up with next! I have even restrained myself from dl-ing J's Intro, or any other "raw" presets in this thread because I want to be surprised by the whole pack.:up::D
