FoFiX rock meter ideas [unlimited]

[death_au]

...i will be glad to participate in the idea giving cuz i have many.

List 'em, List 'em.

(I don't know why I'm getting so overexcited in this thread.)

I like the idea of the fuel line side bars, which literally set the frets on fire during star power.
Yeah, we're focusing on the Rock Meter in this thread, but that doesn't mean that oher ideas can't come through as well.

ok not quite sure how the star icons work, but this popped into my head.
there is 5 stars, there is 5 letters in FoFiX

was thinking that if we have the buildup to the full star... and as the full stars complete.. they spell FoFiX.
something like this....

edit:
here is the other score idea i had.

[Nickman]

ROCKMETER ideas isn't the same as Overdrive bar ideas, starpower bar ideas, time meters, score boxes and stuff. Damn..

LoL AHHH i see what you did there Im so sorry KID... can you ever forgive me

[blazingamer]

Well, while you people are thinking of rockmeters I'm starting work on the menus.

This is what I got so far, just the main menu.

[Razlo7]

WOW BLAZIN!!!

Only thing I don't like is how the instruments don't blend tthe best with the rest of the menu at the bottom, but that is one AMAZING start!

looks NICE i like it mostly there can be improvements alot

[pimpinpalomo]

i would love to see a completely custom theme made specifically for FoFiX. my first suggestion would be to completely change up the notes and frets (different colors and shapes). i put together these:

i know they dont look good, but im just tossing the idea out there.

as for the rock meter...
i like Azzco's idea.

How about this though?
One side (preferably the right side) could be the flames (rock meter) and the other side (left) could be a tube of fuel also going up the neck which would fill as you gain "Fuel" to "Ignite" with. (Basically Star Power). Then when you do "Ignite", the flames would get much larger than normal.


Good idea?

maybe the flames would go down both sides of the neck, and they would change size depending on how well you did (better = bigger flame). and for "star power", you can use a tank filled with gas that connects to the neck (on the bottom?). when activated, it makes the flames change color (purple-ish blue at the base of flame), and the flames will grow quicker when you hit notes.

since this isn't going to be a GH/RB based theme, dont you think it is appropriate to rename "star power" to something more unique?

[Jama7301]

I'm not a huge follower of FoFix, but I do love bouncing ideas. If you go the route of fire/fuel for the "star power" you have a variaty of names to go with. One that comes to mind is "Torque". Don't know why, just like the word.

[Razlo7]

Torque seems to "mechanic-based" for some reason... idk why lol


A couple names could be "Ignition" "Fuel" "Fire Power" (lol Fiah Powah) "*other names relating to gas and fire*"

[blazingamer]

There's always the classic Jurgen Power.

[Jama7301]

It is machine based, but I just like the sound of it.

Hows about "Blaze 'o Glory" "Napalm Shred"...? Now I'm just falling on my face...

[Razlo7]

It's gotta be something easy to say and very simple though...


I like Fire Power

I like Fire Power

we could call it HydroDrive because hydrogen is flammable and if people ask wa say its Liguid Hydrogen

[Blazemann]

If you are thinking of flamable gasses, hydrodrive wouldn't work. Hydro doesn't mean Hydrogen, as many would assume, rather Hydro is water related, as is: Hydrolic, hydrate, hydrolosis. Latan is where the word comes- Hydros- ans that word IS a synonym for water, which is aqua.(almost sure of that)

Nox is simple, easy to remember, and is now highly appliable. Nitrogen isn't as flammable as Hyrdrogen, but it is more easily recognised. So I suggest Nox, or naus. Nitrogen Oxide...

As well, I am already in major work on the themes. I should have preveiws up soon.

[Legwon]

hmmm... with Jamas "tourque" idea, i thought he meant "Torch".
Light the Torch
Fire up the Torch

something along those lines.... something to make it original to FoF/FoFiX.
