The AVS Knockout Tournament!

Good, just thought I'd ask so I didn't start a riot or something, hehe.

My entry... I'm not sure if it qualifies...

I'll prolly re-entry this preset once I make the ripples a getosc ring (music detection) or once I find a better effect.

EDIT : Oh yeah : UnConeD, don't bitch about the realism 😉 🙂 😛

It has alpha blending, so it qualifies.

9 Places left.

I finished my preset: alpha-ray damage (2 more dead). The alphablending is used to create the orange rings that act as a render and alphablending is also used as a way to change the colors. In around 10% of the beats, it'll go to a d=-d maximum blended mode. If you look carefully you can see that the center of the rotation is also the center of the colorchanging alpha. I hope you like it, because I sure do. 👍

(required ape's: channel shift)

heres my update..
i think the judges had better be careful to make sure they get the finished version of these presets. It seems everyone is sending in updates.

When is the deadline btw?

Tommorow is the deadline!

ok I'm dead... 😛

Siddhartha_one's preset is damn stylish. I really like the cartoon look and the orange colorscheme.

bullox. and i just happened to have an excellent alpha blending preset (that, of course, unconed hates) laying around. just my luck i had to be in iowa when you organized this.

stupid iowa. 😔

You know you still could have submitted it when you made that post(unless you are still in Iowa). By my time, anyways, your post was still on the 24th.

That was the whole point on the post.

so how many did you judges get in the end?

I have 12. I'm pretty sure that's all of them.

and some results yet?

I've sent off my scores to Rocky. I'm sure Doggy Dog and he will be done soon.

I figured I might as well post the entire group of presets in case anybody wants them all together.

since there are only twelve have we to eliminate only two??
and anubis check your PM's i have sent mine scores.

Where is doggy dog anyway??if he is'nt around here are only two of us to decide the results??that wont be fair.

liquid cross kicks arse! well done raz..
my favs are that and nixa's fractle one.

Seeing as there are less entries than expected, how about we kick 4 instead of 5 per week

edit, whoops, didnt read that reply.

My personal two favourites:

Shreyas - After the party empty disco
nixa - Alpha fractal

okay, i did this in one afternoon, and it's about all the time i could get to work on it after i found out about the contest, so i hope i'm allowed a late entry...

here it is...protonagative ahahahawmemggi.


<edit> less fuckous now...

My favourites were actually my own preset and siddhartha_one's mojo filter preset.

Well I know that it is to late to submit but here is my preset if you want to take a look. I know that it doesn’t look that good but it's my first and only one (for now). All I did is change the axis of "Vertical Bouncing Scope" and added some color. The scope also appears to "bleed" as it goes down. I think it turned out ok for my first try. Oh and I love your preset, Atero.🙂

Sorry Atero and Calrobowiz; we've already done the judging.

That's fine. I know that mine wouldn't of won any way.

Results are out! it was really tough to judge, almost all were good but there has to be some result ai'nt it? so - Runar and Mquadrat have been eliminated(sorry for you two)
I'll let you'll know the next topic very soon.

Heeey, we want to know the final order. Who won, who came second, who came...

All right here is the order -
1.M^2k : 25 points
2.Raz and Skupers : 24 points
3.Nic01 and Shreyas : 22 points
4.Siddhartha : 20 points
5.Zevensoft : 17 points
6.Deamon and Magic : 16 points
7.(eliminated)Runar and Mquadrat : 15 points
All points are out of 30.

Umm, how much points did Nixa get overall ?

🙁
