[GrayLightning steps down from the judges panel]

No, he's leaving OCR in it's entirety. As anyone who talked to him regularly can attest, he disappeared without a word to anyone.

He told me he'd be back in a week...that was a month ago.

Uh? I thought he went to buy some cigarettes

>_>

[OCRA-0003 - Sonic the Hedgehog 2: Hedgehog Heaven]

That's not new... The tool, I mean.

Yes, I know. And your point is?

[OverClocked ReMix Design ?'s and Issues]

How about a better way to select pages in the forums? Useful, really for the big ones (i.e. ones that post over 100 pages). Something like a drop down, rather than only being able to progress 6 at a time like now.

Your browser has an address bar for this reason.

Just start the "&start=xxx" section in the URL, where xxx is 15*(page number -1). For example, page 11 is "&start=150".

[OverClocked ReMix Design ?'s and Issues]

What about a link to Chipamp in this page, in the "Game Music Emulation (NSF, SPC, etc.)" section?

another page that would fit well in that section and is currently missing is http://www.smspower.org/music/

[OCR Mascot Bios - 20 more up for grabs!]

I'm not going to write bios because of my poor English (otherwise I would do some because there are some characters I love in the left ones), but I'm going to point out a very basic thing:

20. Sakura

80. Iori

Sakura Kasugano

Iori Yagami

A couple of last names can't hurt

[Eligibility of a source tune]

Be warned, when I submitted mercenarios it took longer than normal for it to clear the panel as they discussed whether or not SF2 was acceptable source material.

I know... I just thought to bring it as an "extreme" example

Also, I love that remix.

[Eligibility of a source tune]

Thanx for clearing that up for me guys. Would I also have to provide the source tune(s)?

usually Larry (Liontamer, one of the judges) manages to find something by himself, but it's always good courtesy to provide something, especially if it's not a well-known game, or they are hardly available.

[Eligibility of a source tune]

http://www.ocremix.org/remix/OCR01406/

and

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Starfox_2

should be a bright example

[GrayLightning steps down from the judges panel]

Farewell, Graylightning.

A remixer, a judge, a chessmaster. But most of all, a friend.

I'm going to miss you.

[BadAss: Boss Themes: Volume I - History]

is my English that bad?

*cries and goes to a corner*

[BadAss: Boss Themes: Volume I - History]

what

[OCRA-0003 - Sonic the Hedgehog 2: Hedgehog Heaven]

Uhh... I've got a remix pending to be judged on the last boss theme. If it gets excepted, will it be allowed onto the Sonic Heaven project?

((Doomsday Meets da Funk, which if not rejected, might get a resubmit for mastery... :vomit: ))_

lol no, projects are developed as an entity on their own, and aren't touched afterwards.

I have some news! Qjimbo wrote a tool that allows you to use mp3 files as soundtrack while playing Sonic 2 in the Gens emulator. His goal was to replace the in-game music with the remixes from Hedgehog Heaven. Of course you can use also other mp3s, but the result is great. I made a sample video for him, you can watch it here: http://youtube.com/watch?v=h-GmK9Beq6M

Of course, in the info panel of that video, there is big credit to OCR and stuff

I think this is a great idea, I like to play Sonic 2 with HH as background!

[OverClocked ReMix Design ?'s and Issues]

Any idea if/when the new avatars will be implemented?

Liontamer]I'm de facto in charge of quality control and accepting new avatars, but want to make it clear that AFAIK nothing is going to get added to the avatars until AFTER the vBulletin forums migration, which could be anywhere from 2 weeks from now, to God only knows when. So please don't worry about it if we get backlogged and stuff isn't added immediately.

also, there are several ones that still need to be checked

[Forum Avatars - RIP]

So...when is the switch to vB going to happen? I rarely come here, but I still enjoy a good forum upgrade.

this is the most updated info posted by djp: http://www.ocremix.org/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=2545792#2545792

edit: damn Larry, you jacked me by 2 minutes.

oh, but I have a link to djp's word. I win.

[Sonic 3 & Knuckles: Project Chaos - History]

i hope you guys won't murder me for hurrying you guys up or anything but when do we get to see a final hosting date for this project?

When it's done.

for what I know, it IS done (but one track).

we're just waiting for djp, who didn't post a remix "for the longest time in the site history".

release the project already, who cares about OCR #1500.

[Sonic 3 & Knuckles: Project Chaos - History]

i hope you guys won't murder me for hurrying you guys up or anything but when do we get to see a final hosting date for this project?

it may be out by the end of 2006.

[Hi Hat Combos in DnB]

can you provide an example of how you want them to sound like?

I mean, can you link to a song, possibly an OC remix, in which the hi hats act like you want?

[Sonic 3 & Knuckles: Project Chaos - History]

So, basically we're estimating anywhere from 2 years to a century?

fixed.

still, not sure about that.

[Sonic 3 & Knuckles: Project Chaos - History]

While we've not posted a single mix for what I believe is the longest period in the site's history

lol:

07-19 Eternal Champions 'Perpetual Motion' by zircon

07-30 Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo 'I Don't Fight Boys' by Malcos, Red Tailed Fox

08-15 Tetris 'Thirty-Plus Mix' by R3FORGED

one month between OCR1497 and 1499... this wait is killing me

[Sonic 3 & Knuckles: Project Chaos - History]

I like how Project Chaos's threads are by far the biggest ones in the Site Projects forum. I don't know why the original thread by kfc has been locked to start this new one, but if you "merge" them, they have about 200 pages so far.

This shows how high is the interest for this project.

[Sonic 3 & Knuckles: Project Chaos - History]

How much longer do we have to wait for this now?

this is going to be released after OCR #1500. and we're still at 1498.

[SITE HELP: OCR Sheet Music/Tabs/MIDIs]

Does anyone have a good version of the sheet music for Nayru's Love?

I can't find a free program that can make it from the midi easily, but I have to admit I'm not familiar with that stuff.

I have a good midi transcriber, but on the other hand, I can't find that midi. Send it to me via PM and I'll see what I can do.

[Forum Avatars - RIP]

Here is Akuma:

and two Dan:

I made two of them because I know that Dan is a loved character on the forum (hey EazyP)

who cares about Devilot. that character is hidden for a reason.

LT: If there are any more characters missing, go ahead and add them if they look ok. Can you flip Dan & Akuma to the right? Awesome stuff.

ripping Devilot is a pain because of her crown... it's really hard to trim properly, but I managed to do that, pixel by pixel.

so:

LT: Sorry you underwent the effort to trim the image, but it does look pretty bad anyway. Not your fault; I can see why you didn't include it last time around. Thanks for flipping the other characters. It doesn't matter whether they face left or right, but they might as well all face the same direction.

N: yeah, I ripped some of them while playing as player 2 (because of the code that unlock hidden characters), so they were facing the wrong direction. you're right, it's better if they all are consistent.

oh, and here is EazyP's duck, I resized it: (16x16 lol)

LT: Too small.

[Sonic 3 & Knuckles: Project Chaos - History]

lol, a favorite thread INSIDE a project thread.

[Sonic 3 & Knuckles: Project Chaos - History]

You can delete it, as Larry gave me some criticism on it since he said it wouldn't pass the panel. And I'm sick of it so I'm not going to mess with it anymore.

I'm sad to read that

Submit it to R:TS
