    Option for user creations..

    What if there was an option in the game called "User Creations" marked with a big "UC" among "Dance, Misc, Arcade, Secret" etc.

    This way, users can submit their song directly through the game.. And to prevent the list from going on and on us users can vote on which songs we like the best. The songs with the highest votes would be posted at the top and the lowest at the bottom. You guys could do a weekly or monthly cleanup and delete the ones at the very bottom...

    Or, it could be first come first serve and have a specific ammount of slots available to users.

    Just an idea - I kind of though it was cool, as I like creating music and stepfiles. The only problem is the fact that you guys convert the .DWI's so the game is able to run it... So I thought perhaps you could have "FFRCONVERSIONS" or something up at the top.. So a user can submit their .DWI file and click "Convert" and have the converted file at their finger tips ready to put in the game. ..With this you could also put a limit on size to make sure the song doesn't become too long.

    I thought this out because I was interested in finding a way users can share their own creations without having to wait for you guys to approve it and then wait as you guys go through a long process - and sometimes the song doesn't even get upload.. Also, a way to show off their skill.. (As you can't create a very hard stepfile if you can play very hard..).

    What do you think?

    I think what you are suggesting has already been done for the most part. I'm not sure if you noticed the "FFR File & Song Submissions" area at the bottom of the page.

      Yes, but I mean - uploaded directly to the game. That way they can be played right then and there without waiting... And other users can play them right then and there IN the game.

        Basically every song in the FFR Game is a User Created song. Submit your songs in the forum and i think if the popularity of it is good enough, it will be added into FFR. I doubt Synth or anyone would love to add in a new category just for User Creations, since everysong in FFR is a user created song. Remember this is only a Flash game, you're asking for a very complicated process to be done in just a flash game.

          Yes, I know it's complicated. But don't get my hopes down.. >.> It was, just a suggestion, after all.

            The way the game is constructed, it really isn't possible. Besides, it takes me about an hour to prepare a song for FFR. Between converting it, building the song in flash, editing the gap in audacity, and syncing the song once I put it in the dev section of the game.

            It just isn't fesable with the current engine.
