Isn't that the one I made, only enlarged??? :laugh:

[EdisLeado]

Umm, nope -- That one's definately mine :p You used mine in your mod, remember?

hey edis do you like these:
You Failed! resembling GH3.
also i have the You Rock! I would say poorly taken from a GH3 screenshot.

P.S.- They look a crapload better in game!

[Super_Crazy_Dude]

DUDE THATS AWESOME! THX!!!!!!!!!

I liked those YOU FAILED and YOU ROCK pngs that were posted -- So I decided to make my own -- cleaner -- versions.

Right-click and save it over the youfailed.png in your GHIII Mod folder!


Here's a preview -- Though I hope you won't be seeing this too often :p:

what happens when u fail on gh2, i dont have the game at my dads and i cant check but im making a gh2 mod and i wont a you fail thing

Edis I really like how bright and clear the colors are in your RB starpower notes.

I'm thinking about creating a hybrid of your notes and Maze's white starpower notes used for rows 3 and 4 instead of 5 and 6...

also, I am not sure about the exact positioning within the Notes.png file -- when I open your notes next to Maze's notes or the original notes, they are all slightly offset either up or down. I wonder how much of an effect this has on in-game note positioning, and if perhaps someone knows exactly where the notes are supposed to be positioned in the PNG to line up exactly with the BPM lines when they appear on a beat...?

To see what I'm talking about, open two "tabs" in Firefox. Open the first tab, drag Alarian V2's original Rock Band Notes.png into it. Open the second tab, drag Edis's notes into it. Now, switch back and forth between the tabs. You will see the notes jump up and down.

I see what you mean, myfingershurt -- I noticed that the square notes were a little harder to hit a first so I moved my notes down so you, the player, would have more of a chance to actually hit the notes when they come up. It's kind of confusing to explain, actually.

Hopefully you understand what I mean, though.

[myfingershurt]

I see, Edis... so you already had noticed this and adjusted your notes so they would line up better. Excellent. I'm going to use your notes as the positioning template, and see if I can make those notes I was talking about with the white notes on rows 3 and 4. I'll post em here and maybe you can make em look even better (as I will just be cutting and pasting)

[myfingershurt]

Here's the hybrid notes I was talking about:



Edis, think you could remake some nice slim white notes with the same kinda circular white HOPO glow for rows 3 and 4? Those notes look decent in game but they don't really match...

If I'm obsessing about this, please tell me. I am still looking for someone to help put in the You Rock. I am not a coder but would gladly help someone out with graphics in exchange for the You Rock screen. I have noticed that on some songs there is a good few seconds after the song is over of the neck still going by at which time I believe the You Rock could show up. And I most definitely sound like a retard since my most "coding" experience was a little flash (which I am sure isnt really coding). So if anyone can help please either post or PM me.

[EdisLeado]

How's this, myfingershurt?

[myfingershurt]

Blessed, if I knew how to do that I'd put it on my list of "to do" - I have no idea how to add a new graphics event to the game. Believe what you want, but I'm an amateur at Python.

I'm sure I could help debug this if someone knows how to get it started.

edit: Edis -- thanks, that looks great! I'm gonna link in my hotfix first post next to other GFX links

[blessedmain911]
