New Subbie Feature: In-Game Masking!

Posted in FFR News, Flash Flash Revolution, Game Announcements on September 4th, 2008
FFR is Sad. Pleeze feeds it gnomes

There are a few small features we’ve been wanting to add for some time now, and in-game masking is one of them. Many of you may ask… what is in-game masking? In-game masking is 2 things. It is the ability to hide your combo from displaying and it is the ability to hide your accuracy from displaying. Two separate features.

Now… why would this be a good thing? For the casual user, it likely won’t make much of a difference. In fact, for many users, it is crucial to be able to see one’s accuracy and/or combo. But for some users (especially reverse players), the combo and accuracy displays in-game can be highly distracting. It is for these users that we are giving the option to disable combo or accuracy or both.

For now, it is subscriber only. So if this is a feature you absolutely NEED, subscribe! You’ll also be getting all the other sweet subbie-only features and helping the site.

Be on the lookout for a few more small features that will make many users happy.

-Tass, Synth, and the gnome in the dryer that keeps stealing my socks.

  1. 1ST!!!

  2. YES!
    Thank you!
    :D

  3. YAY

  4. AWESOME

  5. Thanks for the new feature. I don’t know if I’ll find it useful yet, but hopefully I will.

  6. It’s not working for me.
    =/

  7. Certainly will be useful for when I do mirror.

  8. it’s on the beta… hence subbies only.

  9. Yay, awesome add :D

  10. Ehhh there not working so great for me when there “ON” it doesnt hide anything. It might be just my computer ill play around with it a little.

  11. I tried the beta.
    Both were ‘on’

  12. It should work. The first time I tried it, it didn’t work. The second time, it did. Be right back, checking.

  13. The options are goofed up. If you want your combo to show, then you should turn combo masking off. Same goes for accuracy masking. That’s odd.

  14. So I can only choose on then?
    I turned both on and they were still showing.
    Let me see about just one…

  15. One*
    And it still shows with one enabled.
    Bleh.

  16. My Combo Masking works. My Accuracy Masking automatically goes to On even if I put it on Off. If I put it Off, close the settings tab and immediately re-open it, Accuracy Masking is back to On.

  17. First of all, this is awesome news. Thanks for listening to all of our complaints, hahaha.
    Second, “masking on” should probably mean you DON’T see them (if it said accuracy “visible” then it would be different).
    Third, only the combo masking works right now. Accuracy masking does not work.

  18. Yes! :)

  19. That’s pretty awesome. Maybe I should subscribe…..

  20. its brokededed. i turned combo and accuracy masking on and only combo worked. then i turned accuracy masking on only and only combo worked. then i turned em both off and only combo worked. lol

  21. lol subcribe or dont play your choice

  22. Noice, I like the idea. Too bad I cant test. I lag too much on Beta. Hopefully it will be requested enough to go public. :)

  23. OMG Thank you! I might resubscribe just for this!

  24. only combo masking works for me :\
    but i already see a difference with my PA it is much better
    awesome feature!

  25. Yes

  26. The combo goes away if you put it off
    but the perfect thing doesnt go awya

  27. we’re working on it. it WAS working perfectly… but some other small stuff wasn’t. so we fixed the small stuff, which in turn broke some of it working perfectly.

    no worries… beta testing the beta stuff. :)

  28. god thats sexy

  29. lol ok I get the combo and accuracy masking, thats good and all…

    but whats with the sock and gnome? O.O

  30. Definitely awesome. I can now play mirror without being distracted.

    Thanks Tass + admins. :)

  31. Accuracy doesn’t but that’s a good feature, talking about subby features, the new song CRASH THE BEAT! is like a Going on spring wind remix right?

  32. YAY!
    Single most bestest thing to happen to efefar, besides avmiss fix. (For me anyway)
    Fank yewwww~

  33. at first when I read this i just sort of thought… meh whatever

    HOWEVER…. even with only the combo gone my PA has improved quite a bit.. and I play upscroll… I can’t imagine how much this helps some who plays downscroll

  34. I’m pretty much in love with you guys now..

  35. silly Gnome..
    i’ll have to check this out soon

  36. Now when I play mirror I can see arrows. cool

  37. clear cache on the beta. should be working 100% now.

  38. yay that’s awesome stuff, too bad I still can’t get a subscription :( . I guess I’ll just have to get enough credits to buy one. I wanna support the site:)

  39. Thanks, I will try it when I’m gonna be able to :D I don’t know if it’s gonna make a difference even if I play reverse but anyways, we’ll see.

  40. Working great now. Can’t play much at 2:43 am, but from what I’ve tested, it’s efficient and well working.

  41. Gnomes steal your socks too? Awesome! As long as its not just me!

  42. OMG yes
    Thanks so much

  43. Thank you. This really helps. ;P

  44. I play reverse and I don’t find it distracting at all lol

  45. THANK YOU! I’ve been wanting this feature for a very long time now =D I can hardly wait for it to go public :o <3

  46. Yay! Thank you Tass, Synth, and that very sexy gnome.

    Ps. Can’t wait for the faster speedmod. I just hope it comes out sometime soon…

  47. I’ve been dreaming of this moment since I joined. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you, and Thank you! Of course, I’ll encourage you to keep it subbie for a long time to encourage subscriptions and reward the faithful. ;)

  48. OMG OMG OMG I LOVE YOU TYSM!!!!!!11

  49. thank you <3
    time to destroy mental blocks mirrored

  50. I really need this! Whenever my combo goes over 1000 the combo counter is just too big and it hinders my arrow reading. Now I can get rid of it. Thanks!!

  51. the combined powers of red please me yet again
    ilymods.ty<3
    c:

  52. lol till 1.875 comes out my reason to suck stays valid :D muahahaha

  53. lag-tastic
    Meh, just turned colour to 16bit and got rid of my desktop image. :D

  54. My subbie ran out 2 days ago, and now this. :[

  55. Just want to let you guys know that I recommended the Song Timer a LONG time ago with support from Tass. That is all.

  56. how do we feed ffr gnomes?

  57. If only there was some other way besides Paypal, I would’ve subscribed long ago.

  58. I play reverse and i don’t find it annoying but then again i haven’t played with it off. i would subscribe but my parents wont let me so.

  59. I love you guys! No, really, I’ve always played reverse and although seeing the combo is nice, it was a bit distracting at times.
