Genre selector

zootboy · 05-13-2007, 06:12 PM

This is a simple change. I want there to be an option to have the genre selector return to the genre it was on before you started a song. I.E. I go to Rock --> Straight to Video. I finish it. Instead of returning to Dance, I want it to return to Rock.

and i want a million bucks, but can i get it? no... you can't get every thing you want, and i think you're just being lazy

zootboy · 05-13-2007, 06:28 PM

I know im being lazy, but it's the little things that bother me, like that.

**alster1** · 05-13-2007, 06:30 PM

well... GET OVER IT

**Matrixdude** · 05-13-2007, 06:31 PM

Not to mention it would have to take some supa sweet programming skillz to make it happen, which FFR obviously does not have, i.e. synth

How about we all just do our 2 or 3 clicks after every song instead of being lazy?

lol man it would be asome to make your own genre thing where it had all your favorite songs in it that you could customize =)

Or a Genre labeled Most Played Songs or a special genre labeled Top Players so all of those who want to get on the list don't have to track all the songs down.

I like the "favorite song" genre idea, but the amount of coding necessary to make the genre selection wheel go back to the previously selected genre isn't worth it. It's a few mouse clicks to get to the genre you want, not that much of an inconvenience.

Omg that would make my life 10x easier.

PS-Make it in alphabetical order (or at least in the order of the top players list). Omg I think Id cum myself if you guys did that :O

Can we have a "AAA now!!11onelolx" button while we're at it?

The first 4 or 5 posters...wow, wtf. You realize this is the SUGGESTION forum, right? Oh no, he made a suggestion! Let's all run and hide!

I dislike people who do that. Make ACTUAL comments instead of "OMG sT0p BIENG T3H OOBER LAY ZEE!"

-.-

Anyways, I kind of like this idea. While the genre selector is loading, when I want to go back to the same genre, it goes insane and spins a full 360 when I click the arrows (before it fully loads), making me wait even longer. It's VERY annoying.

**Sprite-** · 05-16-2007, 10:00 AM

this idea is a good one

zootboy · 06-16-2007, 06:50 AM

Thanks, sprite. I disagree that it would take a massive amount of programming to implement this. It would take about 5 lines at MAX to do this:
var genrePos=0;
(in the arrows)genrePos++; or genrePos--;
(during the loading of the wheel)genreWheel.frame = genrePos;
See. I'm a novice and I could do it. And please don't harp on the errors in this code, I didn't test it or even think about it much.
