Community Picks

hard one, i think i must have left out some but here goes

montana vs. ernst - delayed chemistry
fsk - magnarings
tuggummi - bacteria
nemoorange - sun of leo
unconed - come fly with me

btw. If presets from ED are going to be selected id like to include the update versions not the old ones.

[edit]
Deamon, it is still up to you to select the presets. You don't have to select UnConeD's or skupers presets just, because the majority thinks they are the best. I myself am only going to vote only for one UnConeD's preset, because that's the only one i think that should be included.
So quit blaming yourself for not being able to select other than UnConeD's presets 🧟
[/edit]

My top-5:

Is the order important? in that case:

1) UnConeD - Daedalus
2) Tuggummi - Orb Of Destruction
3) El-Vis - Virus
4) Alchemist - Electric Laserland ('Inside Laserland' according to comment)
5) El-Vis - Golden

Okay, that's my list. It's only a few words, but it took quite a few hours to dig through the presets I have...
Now it's done, I notice that these are only quite simple (D)movement-based presets and no render-base presets, which somehow surprises me.
All presets are attached.

wow.
You have no idea how long it took me to pick these out :S

my picking is based on:
-they respond to the music well
-they run fast(fps)
-they are pretty lookin'
-there isn't 50 identical presets out there that I could have picked instead.


zamuz - explosive virus
NemoOrange - Implode Explode
degnic - fractal (slow-mo metallic)
Degnic - Fury (extreme remix by fsk)
unconed - silk strings

Whoops!!!

I forgot the attachment so i post my original post next to this post.

FIRST POST in WINAMP FORUMS!!!

Okay, I've posted here because I'm a big fan of AVS.
I've seen presets almost as early as 1999.
Well, here are my top 5 favorites:


1) Degnic - Data Flow
2) Shock Value - Grafitti
3) UnconeD - All Neon-Like
4) El-VIS - Digitalistbesser
5) Tuggummi - Sound Rings


I decided to pick only 1 from an artist so that
I won't look like a fanboy of a particular person.
The presets I chose above are based from my experience
and took me awhile because it's really hard to decide.
Almost every preset i've seen today are visually stunning.

Revenge of Mt. Doom is an awesome pick.

I decided to use some more unknown presets. It was extra difficult because I already have to pick a lot of favourite presets (Deskmod series) and I didn't want to repeat myself.

les Noobiens - das kaffeeservice (zamuz pretty rmx)
nixa - baptism by fire
tuggummi - guingtsing
nemoorange - spiriel
tonic - zoomed picture from one insect

And thanks to everyone that picked one of my presets. I really appreciate it.

would've liked to pick some older stuff, but i havn't much installed

* les Noobiens - Give 'em enough Scope (El-Vis Remixed).avs
* NemoOrange - Life in Pearl City.avs
* S_KuPeRS - Hexual healing.avs
* UnConeD - Butterfly Caught.avs
* Zamuz - Sangre (Heat Remix).avs

My picks...

Tuggummi - Chrome Deluxe (best chrome preset)

Unripelemon - Nectar (stylish flow preset with a lot of depth: seems to jump out of the AVS window)

fšk - ice cube (weird colors and stylized response, an old favorite)

Tuggummi + Jheriko - No way out remix (sweet 3D DM with sweet texture)

fšk - afterburner remix (This preset pwnz, with a 'p').

(I originally had Degnic - Dataflow, but that's was already picked)

think we should keep the selection period running for some time, will contact those lazy bastards from devart to participate

I just picked 2 weeks as a general time span. There's no real rush on this, but still, voting also has to be done.

Let's say May 7th as final selection deadline. I will put up the vote then.

My nominations for the Community Picks:

Artist - Pack - Preset
Montana - Mono AVS 6 - Petalpusher
Zamuz - Visions III - Energy
Zevensoft - AVSPack4 - Ocean4
fragmer - BuggyAVS-II - particles-II
Shock Value - Total Immersion - Architectural Design

you forgot to attach the presets

erm oops yes you're right 🙂
was still collecting the bmps and stuff
(quite a lot of them... thanks fragmer 😁)

was also wondering, if architectural design preset is something meant for the end-consumer. i like it a lot, but it's nothing for viewing pleasure only.

The only thing that bugs me about architectural design is that most of the help is inside the comments. There should be a mention of holding 'h' for help on the first screen.

Anyway, voting will decide :P.

i picked AD because i think it's very good at showing off AVS's new capabilities 🙂

true about that, maybe i misunderstood the purpose of the pack 😉

Surely the purpose of the pack is the purpose that the whole community gives it? If everyone contributes what *they* want then we will end up with a good representation of the community's favorite presets, for whatever reason they are considered so great.

my picks:

zamuz - spiritual
tuggummi - über designers.com
nemo - building blocks
duo vs unconed - hash the planet
el-vis - hubble 02

Technicals are of course allowed, but remember that this pack will be intended for newbies who don't care about lines of code, but visual and soundresponsive quality

Well I'm too lazy too read the rest of these two pages 🙄 😁 so I don't know if anyone mentioned me at all (probably not), But that kinda sounds like my kind of presets.... I think something like "celesetial wind" would fall into that category.

But if I'm the only one who thinks that I'll shut up 😉

Here's a slightly improved version of Architectural Design with the text UnConeD suggested and a couple of extra reminders in the Top Down Designer. Hopefully this should point non-AVSers in the right direction if this preset gets voted in. (The zip also contains the AddBorders APE and two images that are all needed to view the preset correctly.)

Now to figure out what my five picks will be...

God that was hard!

My picks would have to be these:

> Tuggummi - Warped
> Evilrice - Cleanroom (full moon remix)
> s_kupers - alpha ray damage
> Zamuz - back to cursor (in-depth rmx)
> UnConeD - Fiber Optics

READ THE INSTRUCTIONS.

ffs.

As you can see, this selection is pretty special, because only one preset is an original one,the others are remixes.
It seemed really hard to select, but after i read the post
i found most of my favs already submitted 🙂,that made the process a LOT easier 😁.

So my five favourites are :

>>AVS-King vs. Evilrice : High Tech ( Shards of Glass mix)
>>Skupers vs. Degnic : Spirit Realm (Plasmoid remix)
>>El-Vis : VR26 (orb)
>>Nemo vs. El-vis : Dreamtime 2 remix
>>Acid vs. Tuggummi : Twitchy Liquid Shit (mixing plastics)

mo oldskul

My picks:

fsk - digital artist
shock value - source of power (I had to include one of mine 🙂 )
skupers - dual flow
tuggummi - multiple orgasms
zamuz meets tuggummi - fat balls (wallpaper wannabe candy theme)

It's hard to define what "best" is or even what my favorites are, but I think these presets represent various styles of AVS well.

i'm trying to collect the presets you pick but it's not that easy... many times, bitmaps are missing 🙁 please remember to submit your picks "including all required support files (bitmaps and such)"

tuomas - wired (still spellbinding after all these years)
yathosho - sakura (this pack will need some style!)
tonic - lumping (I feel like Tonic deserves some mention)
duo - warm freeform (simple & lovely)
fsk - zvezda (all of Pickin Dim 3 should be included as far as I'm concerned)
