Queue/Batch Discussion Thread

Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread

For most things, but if I remember correctly, the folder virtualization happens with no warning whatsoever. What happens is Vista actually creates another folder somewhere and stores any changes made to files within Program Files there. But since the programs aren't reading from that directory, it's a pretty big waste of time.

Anyway, hate to derail this and turn it into a Vista thread; I hope you can get it sorted out Strawbarry.

the permission bs is a very small problem. I dont really do much on SM anymore so it doesn't bother me at all, but the real problem is that when I zip my files to a zipfile, it doesn't register it as the file that I wanted but instead registers it as another file instead which is the previous Dwi that I used to construct my new file. Thats actually the main problem and wouldn't mind some feeback about that. Once I get that sorted out, I can send in the file thats haveing problems. Again. Blu knows what Im talking about since hes witnessed it. (still need some suggestions about this)

btw... I dont think you need to worry about the biasness of the judges considering on how strict the judgeing is. I dont think anyone really knows enough about each other to really play favorits.

Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread

patashu (and kommi): now that you're a judge... you shouldn't be taking files in and helping with pre-judging. i don't know how much of that blu and jx do leading up to a batch... but, really, to be unbiased you shouldn't be doing much of it at all.

aite. however I certainly don't mind giving people advice on how to proceed with making a good simfile.

Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread

The problem is I sent all my files to three respected members of the simfile community beforehand, and most were found to be acceptable.

I just feel increasingly frustrated at my attempts to get good independent music in the game.

(Although I will admit, the Die Barney Die one I sent sucked ass. I failed to run my normal quality control on it.)

Hey kommi did you ever step that Dr. Steel song, speaking of Coolgamer's permissions. : p

Coolgamer, since I'm not judging anymore will gladly help you with your file, granted I enjoy the song, as I can make that choice now... Just PM me a sendspace link or something.

Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread

Marf. I missed the last deadline. Oh well, sent 2 files anyway. These should have a great chance of getting in.

Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread

for file submissions: you are allowed to submit at most 2 new files and 3 total files, unless you have permission to submit more (those who have permission know who you are for the most part... generally if you have to ask, you don't have permission). the exception is that if one of your files was played by me and not queue'd, it does NOT count against your 3. so for Halogen, all those files of yours i played (like twelve) that weren't queue'd... those do not count towards your 3. you can submit those and up to 3 total more. still no more than 2 new files though... just more resubmits.

Suh-weet.

Maybe now I might fix Midnight Shooter knowing that it won't count as one of my submissions. Twelve should be finished soon; I've been a bit too lazy to try and get the exact BPM + I really don't feel like opening DDREAM at the moment. =/

Hmm, me vs. Patashu, who will win. HMMMMMMMMMM. Yeah, I quit. >_<

Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread

oh don't be like that

you stepped your twelve with a different style right? so it might be suitable for a < relationship or mine might not be what tass is after

Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread

*sigh* Yet another 3.5 from jx... and a - / 1 from blu <_<

Forgotten Aura (kjwkjw) [? / 3.5]
rhythms for drums aren't done correctly, and inconsistent

Forgotten Aura (kjwkjw) [-] {1/10}

. Jesus this song goes on for freakin ever
. Ok tons of misrhythms and very boring

Not much constructive criticism here. I guess I'll listen more carefully to the drums and layer the parts I didn't (I thought they'd get messy).

But the length? It's not that long and boring considering there are songs like World Tour 2004 coming up these days, jeez <_<
I might consider a song cut, but I doubt I'll do one.
