CC Ricers Posted December 27, 2012 Posted December 27, 2012 Tiny suggestion that would add a nice extra touch to ReMix pages/topic discussions: Use a video game character image appropriate for the ReMix. Any ReMixes that have an image assigned to them will override the random image. I don't think it is too hard to do programatically, but I know it will just be tedious to assign a specific image to hundreds of them. Not all of them would have a specific image, as there are many games either too under-represented/obscure that there's an available character image from them.
I'm No DJ Posted February 18, 2013 Posted February 18, 2013 Hi I got a bit confused today to find that the top of the website in the home page is blank when it shouldn't be. The logo along with the games and music selections and all that were gone. I refreshed and they were still gone. Is this a glitch or a bug or what?
Liontamer ⚖️ Posted February 18, 2013 Author Posted February 18, 2013 Pics, or it didn't happen. Seriously though, it may just be you, so pics + browser & operating system info would be helpful if you can recreate it.
Mirby Posted February 18, 2013 Posted February 18, 2013 This has happened to me before, but after letting time pass and refreshing several times it returned to normal. *shrug*
Melbu Frahma Posted February 19, 2013 Posted February 19, 2013 Happened to me once or twice in the past. Fixed itself with time - I think my ISP was acting wonky both days if I recall correctly.

I use both Firefox and Chrome but on different occasions. I have a MAC OSX 10.7.5 Maybe it is just me...Hm....It wasn't happening a few days ago :S Hopefully this is a minor issue! I sure did get a bit of a shock to be unable to search for remixes from the games section! Must be my bandwidth or something, It commonly goes mental from time to time. *Update* i've noticed that the site top is displayed on the forums, but not on the main home page. I think it's just me x_ X

The navbar is just text with some style sheets on it. Might just be an error with loading the header itself, or you having the cache think you still turned off javascript, or something like that. Or maybe the site was programmed to load the header last (hopefully not, because then all the cool style sheets would be gone and the site would look terrible). Btw, please use jQuery, not Javascript. It loads more universally that way.

Anorax Posted February 20, 2013 Posted February 20, 2013 Or maybe the site was programmed to load the header last this might be the case. If you go to the homepage and click refresh, you'll see the rest of the page flash up before the header. If you have a slow internet connection, it might be more of a long pause than a flash
pmac Posted March 20, 2013 Posted March 20, 2013 It feels like it's rarely updated. Under "Check out the latest OC ReMix albums!" has Mega Man 9 and Nights works, which are most definitely not the most recent. Thanks
timaeus222 Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Sometimes the link(s) to one or more artists in Russian ReMix Roulette is/are invalid. i.e. Today there were 2/5 that were valid. It might have something to do with them linking to old URL formats. Any chance this was meant to be fixed in the v6 update?

So send good vibes for v6.
Mirby Posted March 26, 2013 Posted March 26, 2013 I've noticed a trend of people mentioning things not working as they should and the answer is always v6. i guess v6 is pretty damn good then XD
neurogen Posted October 25, 2013 Posted October 25, 2013 i think i have messed up something. The threads are in the wrong order! Newest post comes first, and the OP is the last post!! How do I change it back! I googled like a madman couldnt find anything... Help me change it back please!! Thank you!

neurogen Posted October 26, 2013 Posted October 26, 2013 I fixed your account. hello! it seems to work now!! thanks!! and another thing when i post in my thread every other post it comes up a notice that the post must be moderated before it becomes visible.. then next post seems to work
Liontamer ⚖️ Posted October 26, 2013 Author Posted October 26, 2013 and another thing when i post in my thread every other post it comes up a notice that the post must be moderated before it becomes visible.. then next post seems to work The forum software has some way it determines that, but it should stop once you've got a larger history of forum posts.
neurogen Posted October 26, 2013 Posted October 26, 2013 ok last question im trying to access the IRC chat but when i try the webchat, it connects and i can see all the users to the right. but when typing it just says "not connected to any channel" and when trying mIRC it says connection timed out www.esper.net
Eino Keskitalo Posted November 8, 2013 Posted November 8, 2013 x68k's Akumajo Dracula is listed as a 2001 game, which is the PS1 version release year. X68000 version came out in 1993. wikipedia --Eino
Liontamer ⚖️ Posted November 8, 2013 Author Posted November 8, 2013 (edited) What about ReMixes from games that have been released on several consoles? For example, http://ocremix.org/game/624/fallout-3-xb360 lists no remixes, but http://ocremix.org/game/623/fallout-3-ps3 and http://ocremix.org/game/622/fallout-3-win do. Is this just an oversight?You say game assignment can only go to one game, and in the case of the only Fallout 3 ReMix on the site (http://ocremix.org/remix/OCR02077/), it's assigned to the PS3 version, but apparently, 2 games (database-wise), both the Windows and the PS3 versions of Fallout 3 list ORC02077 as being ReMixes of them (which totally makes sense other than that the Xbox version doesn't list that same ReMix). So what's stopping both Escape and Secret from listing OCR00670 (even if the ReMix itself only lists Escape)? There are several ReMixes that use sources from several different games and only list one game, but the game pages themselves all list that same ReMix (http://ocremix.org/remix/OCR02496/ being one example). EDIT: I noticed the Windows version's list of songs refers to songs actually listed as being songs from the PS3 soundtrack. I am assuming, therefore, that the reason that the Xbox version doesn't list the ReMix is because it doesn't list the songs, either (which it should). Unless the song ReMixed in OCR00670 is identically the same in both the Monkey Island games, it wouldn't make sense to have either game refer to a song that's listed as being part of the other game, or you'd have to crosscheck every time a ReMix is posted whether the song it is a ReMix of exists in another game (take the Zelda overworld theme. Good lord). So... I guess it makes sense to do things the way you're doing them now (besides OCR02077 not being listed under the Xbox version of the game, that is, but again, I'm guessing that's just an oversight). Yeah, that's a known issue with how games on similar platforms work. Need some extra coders. Bumping after 2+ years. edit: Links checked and fixed.--Eino I haven't forgotten this, though it'll be a while before it's all fixed, since I want to carefully go through these. Once the systems are corrected in the actual mix tags in the next torrent update, then I can focus on working with djp to correct the database. Tiny suggestion that would add a nice extra touch to ReMix pages/topic discussions: Use a video game character image appropriate for the ReMix. Any ReMixes that have an image assigned to them will override the random image. I don't think it is too hard to do programatically, but I know it will just be tedious to assign a specific image to hundreds of them. Not all of them would have a specific image, as there are many games either too under-represented/obscure that there's an available character image from them. Interesting idea. This likely wouldn't happen for years, but I'll at least give things a look as far as matching up characters to games. If djp ever has free time to code something like this, maybe it could happen. Not likely, but I like the idea. x68k's Akumajo Dracula is listed as a 2001 game, which is the PS1 version release year. X68000 version came out in 1993. wikipedia Good catch. Fixed.

Black_Doom Posted November 9, 2013 Posted November 9, 2013 Track 'Hogtied' from album The Sound of Speed is Remix of Boss Theme from 16-bit Sonic the Hedgehog, Boss Theme & Scrap Brain Zone from 8-bit Sonic the Hedgehog, but 8-bit StH isn't pointed in the line 'Game(s)'. Fix it, please.
Eino Keskitalo Posted November 13, 2013 Posted November 13, 2013 Thanks for the reply Larry! There's a broken link in this mix's writeup: the "second time covering the main theme.." link is lacking the forward slash in the url. --Eino
k-wix Posted November 19, 2013 Posted November 19, 2013 Hey guys, I'm having a particularly strange error on the forums I thought I'd share. Certain forum threads. Ones that get super big with discussions like the Tropes vs. Women (http://ocremix.org/forums/showthread.php?t=43211) or the League of Legends Thread (http://ocremix.org/forums/showthread.php?t=35500) It's browser specific, I'm running Firefox and when I click on any links associated with going to that thread, I get the following text instead: 'Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 8336 bytes) in /home/ocremix/public_html/forums/includes/functions_threadedmode.php on line 43' I'm sure this is local and on my end, but not entirely sure on how to fix it. It's worth noting the page loads fine on IE and Chrome, but I <3 my firefox - is there anyone who can tell me whatsup with this? Is anyone else having anything like this popup?
Yami Posted November 19, 2013 Posted November 19, 2013 Seems like you might have to switch to Linear mode for your thread display mode (User CP -> Edit Options -> Thread Display Options -> Thread Display Mode) Sometime Firefox seems to have an issue with threaded huge topics.
