If you need any help give me a shout or come into #avs. Certainly, this is not a hard problem from my perspective... so I am sure I can help you get over the hurdles if needs be.

Very cool idea. I'm tempted to steal it... 😛

What would be realy cool is if a rubix cube would scramble itself for a like 30 seconds based on the music playing, and then either solve itself, or do a high speed rewind.

as a matter of fact that would be quite cool.
or even better
keep the auto solve and scramble but put in interactivity where you have 30 seconds to solve it or the music resets it.

that would make quite the fun little preset. you can watch or play what ever you prefer, and i know this would take some serious coding but i'm sure it can be done using the ol avstrans ape.

There aren't too many presets yet.. but enough to make the pack if needed. I'd like to extend the deadline and give everyone a bit more time... however if nobody else will join we might as well start remixing.

Let me know what you think...

I of course will be contributing a couple of tech heavy presets. Because there is quite a good variety of skill levels here it might be nicer to do some really collaborative remixing... I much prefer collabs to remixes... but I know that it is just my opinion... by interacting more heavily during the process you can explain to others how something they want to change works... or even change it for them because you are familiar with the preset etc... although that sounds most handy for code, its probably more useful for all the hacky effects out there. 🙂

Let me know anyways...

stick with tradition for now m8.
i like your idea.
but remixing has always worked and as you just said theres not that many presets.
lets wait for WFC 8 and see how that comes out.
speaking of which any word on whos doing the intro this time?.

hmm stoopid web cache...

but remixing has always worked and as you just said theres not that many presets.
I disagree, I think remixes have bloated all the previous packs out and that many are only marginally different from the originals... something which stems from the difficulty of messing with someone elses code in my experience. Not that all the remixes are crap, but a pack where there are as many, or more remixes than originals can be irritating...

EDIT: I am doing the intro btw, clearly... no offense guys. I was planning on a 3d model and dynamic lighting extravaganza. Intros are particularly amenable to huge piles of tech. 🙂

hmm
thats true to jheriko but remixes is always been what WFC was about.
it would be hard to leave them out.
but i suggest this time you let the people choose if they want to remix or not.
lol
that might help.
seeing as theres only a handful this time.
maybe if we had like 10 artists then the remixes could start flying.
lol.
Mr_Nudge#
sounds all fancy in my pantsy.
i would love to see remixes still, but maybe only one remix for every 2 originals. we'd remix both, but leave it up to J which one made it into the pack based on quality.

deadline is tomorrow???

I thought it was 30th... and I'm organising it(!)

I'm happy to wait for anyone within reason... if it drags through may into june though I will push for release.

i just found this here:

did you change it in between?

no one really... i have presets from most who said they would be in now...

some more are always welcome, and if someone else wants in at this late stage it shouldn't be a problem either...

Well I sent 2 presets (sorry for late submission) i hope they will be good
(i working on one more but that's not 100%)
micro.D#
what do you mean with bump post? 😕 (i'm sorry i think i'm just too tired to be fast enough for anything)
(third of my presets is sent)
micro.D#
Well maybe it'll come alive around 30th april or when the remixing will be began i dunno.😛
jheriko#
sorry guys, i've been awol a bit recently. between internet problems and social life i haven't checked my e-mail in a couple of weeks.

I will start putting the thing together tonight. I think I'll wait for 30th before starting the remixing off... just so any late people can get their stuff in on time. 🙂

I'd like to do a full collab with someone too if possible... imo they are usually the presets that stand out above the rest. I have quite a few "half a preset"s that can be used...
