I need YOU for Pack VI

Okay, I've almost finished my 6th pack, it should be ready for release in about a week or so unless I'm feeling really lazy this week. I've got about four more presets to finish off then its done.

Anyway, I was hoping that some of you wonderful people might want to remix some of my work so that I can pick the best ones and cram them in my pack to size it up a bit and generally make it better. I always like packs with remixes in and I would like my pack even more if it contained remixes. Besides, I think that it is a good thing to do in the community.

Secondly, I would like to know if I can do some remixes of your work too. I'm not sure who's stuff I want to fiddle with yet but I will ask the orignal authors permission to include them in my pack when I make some.

You can get all of my presets from http://jheriko.deviantart.com if you want to make some remixes for me. Hopefully you won't think that any of them are too noobish, I've always tryed to be code heavy, even in my earlier presets.

If you do make anything please post it up under this thread.

Thank you in advance.

Here be a double-fps version of ya glass cube.

I also optimized the SSC's by reducing them to only ONE division per point, and only calculating sin and cos once per frame.

Thankyou Zevensoft.

Here are some of my unreleased presets that will be in Pack VI, I basically chose four at random. This way I can keep most of Pack VI secret and still let everyone remix some of it.

Oops! Forgot to attach the zip, goddamn I hate it when I do something that stupid.

i have a minor creative slump right now, so i don't know if i could do some remixes (that would be good), but you always remix my stuff, infact i alwya love it when someone remixes my stuff

You know whats funny - I was going to ask you if I could remix your cubism preset to make the cubes have filled transparent faces.

(Mainly because I've labelled myself in my own mind as the 'master of solid geometry in AVS' after releasing my platonic solids minipack 😁)

Yeah yeah sure! =)

Hmmm... my 'some of pack 6.zip' has been downloaded 6 times. Hopefully that means that i'll be seeing 6 remixes! Either that or people just want to see my work before it is properly released 😛.

I'm thinkng about that swirly one.

I've already forgotten which ones I put in the zip, but if it is Golden Spiral that you are talking about, then that is definately in dire need of remixing. I couldn't think of anything really cool to do with it and I still can't.

It is nice to see that people are helping me out. I love the AVS community, and now it is starting to love me back.

I couldn't be bothered to remix cubism in the end because the code was completely different to how i would usually do things, I would have had to remake the preset from scratch to do what I wanted to do, which really negates the point of remixes. So instead I ended up tinkering with frescati instead.

here we go 🙄

remix

ah wait... HERE we go!

i really dont ever do space presets, but here's just another one 😁

hmm.. I swear I already replied to this

Thank you for the remixes.

My pack is starting to swell in size.

I created two remixes for you. They need the Convolution, Channel Sift and Multiplier APEs, but I trust you already have those.

thanks for that skupers. i've done a remix of your endotherm preset, can i include it in my pack as well?? it is attached if you want to look at it.

Just thought that I'd add that those remixes were mind blowingly cool.

REALLY cool.

Ofcourse you can, Jheriko...

Thanks for that!

You could use some stuff from Rucksack if you want. It's pretty basic though. Is stuff from your other packs open to remixing too?

Yeah, anything that I have made is open to remixing.

Check this out Jheriko!

I think its uber-1337 🙂

Thanks. I just finished optimising it a bit, almost doubled the fps. Most of that was down to my old superscope code being a bit cack, but I also optimised the added gray scopes as well.

Here, I'll upload it too.

yeah, i was worried about the FPS (can you repost it? i would like to see what you did, so i can learn)

{edit: LOFREAKINL i juuuust missed that post! damn!

Dang! that is a lot faster, nice job

um, u might want to change the file name, its getting lengthy 🙂
}

Most of the changes that were responsible for fps increase were in my original superscope and was mostly taking things like cos(rz) in pixel and putting crz=cos(rz) in frame and then replacing the cos(rz) with crz. That way you calculate cos(rz) once per frame rather once per pixel.

The other thing I did was to remove the effect list, place your scopes at the top then use Misc/Render Mode to fatten up the lines rather than using that filled rectangle method that you used (which although useful in other situation wasn't really appropriate here).

Hey, I've finished the remix, and here they are =)

Thanks for those, they are really cool!

I just finished the cover for Pack VI. I thought I'd upload it here so that you can see some of what is to come soon.



Large Version (1068x603 I think)

I've only got 2 more presets to finish now before I release the pack and one of them is very nearly done.

There is also an attached, slightly lower quality, verson of the large image here.

I like that screenshot. I even see one of mine 😁 !
