Fan letter to UnConeD

I just logged in due to an overpowering need to say that the
creator of the "Don't Trip And Drive" plugin is a beautiful
genious, and deserves his/her own fan club. This car... I
chuck on some Chick Corea piano jazz and it purrs along like
bliss and happiness. Chuck on some Rage Against the Machine
and it runs off like a rebel! You fall in love with the little
thing really...

More addictive than live reality shows, this plugin is the
greatest invention since the weel. "Have a car run along a 3D
sound image", brilliant! 🙂

May you be nominated for a nobel prize...

Your fan...

Hello, new and enthusiastic member! You have discovered AVS, that is wonderful! AVS can offer hours of fun and amazement; it is a fun tool to play with and it is a great thing to watch while you play your favourite music.

However, it seems you have asked a AVS related question that has been asked and answered several times before. Here in the AVS forums we respect and value such skills as:

- Searching
Simply put: Search before you post. You might have already seen the red bold letters and the search link above the posting window, or you might have missed them for some reason. By searching for the answer you're looking for, you will get the answer you want immediately, instead of posting a question that has been posted before and waiting for a reply which usually takes several hours, sometimes even days to get, and it might not even be a reply you will appreciate.

- Reading the FAQ
If you didn't know, FAQ stands for: Frequently Asked Questions. It simply is a list of questions and answers to questions that over the long period of time have been asked multiple times. Since answering these questions each time they are asked can become boring, as well as time wasting, we prefer usually not to answer them directly. Rather, we will point you to the FAQ, where a pre-written and descriptive answer can be read. The FAQ explains the situation and solution much better than a quick reply by someone else.

- Checking out the tutorials
Striving to be an AVS artist? Great! We like new people around here. Have a question about how to make something in AVS? Before you post your question, it is recommended and expected by other AVS artists that you read the AVS tutorials enlisted here, before you post your question. The tutorials are a wonderful source created by long time AVS artists to learn the basics and sometimes even the more complex features of AVS. Realize that since this is a hobby for most of us, no one is going to hold your hand and teach you AVS from ground up. Believe it or not, but all of us have learned AVS by ourselves. Some AVS artists didn't even have these tutorials at their disposal and they had to learn everything from scratch by experimenting! You are indeed lucky to have such great resources available to you. Use them well and wisely, but most importantly read them before you ask.

Remember these guidelines and you should have no problems in your AVS future. Good luck, have fun, and welcome to the AVS forums! 👍

Listen, I'm a fan of most of you guys. Tugg here definately deserves som respect. I especially like the Spotlight one, which is the one I mostly use. A designing masterpiece I really should say (very easy to look at) :P

lol... Just, the car there has more personality than Herbie (all sequels combined) and it runs along with whatever music you put on. Looking at it is addictive. Just make sure not to chuck it on at a party. That would kill the social element...

Big fan of all of you; you do know design. Just... I sat and stared at the car for about fifteen minutes, giggling the whole time... Writing a fan letter was neccesary 🙂

Cheers, people!! 😁

Hmm, sounds to me that you're only watching the default presets, am i right? Also seems you haven't updated winamp in a while, because the default presets have also been changed 😛

What you need is to get out in the plugins section and download a few packs, then be amazed 🙂

Here's a couple of hints.

PAK-9 AVS 5

Remix Collection by Zamuz

Winamp Forums Compilation 3

Mindscapes by Hboy

Scenery by Nemoorange

Finnish Flash 8

Whacko Revisited

And there's a whole lot more out there, just go get em 👍

Jetwash and its remix were certainly interesting from a technical standpoint, but I think WFC2 would've been just as good without them. I think it's Ishan's, Denkensiefursich's and ASD5A's presets that really made that pack.

I don't mind saying that, overall, I consider it slightly better overall than WFC3... but WFC3 was pretty good, too. I enjoyed being a part of that one.

Anyway, swerving slightly back on topic, UnConeD's presets included with WinAmp (especially the Zero-G Maze variants) were one of the major things that got me interested in AVS to begin with.

Speaking of the forums compilations...

With WotL's absence, do we continue on with the fourth installation of the series? On his own forum, he said that he didn't want to run this one. I volunteered, but it was never set in stone. On his DA page, he noted to Tugg that it would be either Jheriko or I.

I could email WotL and see what he's got to say on the subject. J, what's your feel on this?

Personally... I don't care 🙂

I will have to contribute a super preset though... no one has pushed the tech lately, and I still have a few of those tricks up my sleeves which have never been seen before in avs...

Thx, Tuggy! I'm downloading the stuff...
For the record, you were right about the works. :P
I update stuff rarely I think... I'll improve... 😁

Doggy Dog, for you:
More addictive than the ring of power, you're the best thing since... Women...

Cheers, people! Keep up the good work! 😁

I rue the day I mentioned the word remix, neither one is a remix of the other, I should have just used a different model to avoid confusion.
