Replays update
Update #3:
All replays converted (well it only took 2 hours, but never did a post update) and replay engine can handle the new format. Only thing left is the save button which is just about done. There will also be a beta engine update as I also have the source to that.
regards,
~Velocity
Update #2:
We found a big red button… weren’t quite sure what it does but we decided to press it. What’s the worst that can happen?
Turns out it converts the replays to a more modern, compact form and brings them back online. We’ll let you know when it’s done!
regards,
~Velocity / aperson
Update: We’re working on the replays right now and have moved where the replays are currently stored. You won’t be able to access your saved replays for a bit while we do this.
I have trimmed down the replays database and removed any corrupted entries. Any replays that were not set to be saved have been deleted. Replays are now viewable again from your profiles, where you will see your saved replays as the last visible entries.
Recording new replays is still disabled. We will be working over the next few days to bring them back as I described in a previous post. We will keep you updated with changes as they happen.
Hope your 2011 is off to a great start!
Cheers,
aperson

Posted at 1:25am on January 2nd, 2011

MP and ProfileChat are up.

VidChat is not coming back any time soon but will be worked on after everything else is hashed out.
Replays are one of the most important parts of the site and are used for a variety of different functions. The replay database caused the server to physically crash, so it is the number one priority right now.

can you guys get the multiplayer working again? or is there some trick to it because me and some old friends really wanna play against eachother and the multiplayer was a great piece of the site.
Posted at 1:52am on January 2nd, 2011
Read the post I made right above yours…
Posted at 11:24am on January 2nd, 2011
Are those links anywhere on the site besides here? It’d be nice not to be the only one in multiplayer.
Posted at 1:04pm on January 2nd, 2011
They are on the veteran links on the left nav bar.
Posted at 3:27pm on January 4th, 2011
I still cant get profile chat to work. Is there something else i need to be doing?
Posted at 3:28pm on January 4th, 2011
Open port 8082 on your router or firewall. Sometimes right-clicking on prochat and pressing play after your connection fails will make it work after a few tries.
Posted at 1:04am on January 5th, 2011
Mine are not there. :/
Posted at 1:47am on January 5th, 2011
We just removed them for a bit while we work on converting them to our new replay system and restoring them.
Posted at 4:37am on January 5th, 2011
great job
Posted at 4:51am on January 5th, 2011
Whats with the big red button? o_0
Posted at 4:54am on January 5th, 2011
It’s the button that converts all the replays. Clicking more then once = boom.
Posted at 8:31am on January 5th, 2011
Awww i thought the big red button was pressable =[
I also thought it would show a random users replay!
Oh well, back to bashing arrows!
Posted at 10:41am on January 5th, 2011
I wanna press the big red button (dun dun dun) LIKE NO ONE EVER DOES (dun dun dundun). To press it is my real test, REPLAYS ARE MY CAAAAAUSE!
EFF-EFF-ARE ohhhh you’re my best friends… no sike, this game just never ends! You teach me, and I’ll teach you … how to mash arrowwwwwws! how to mash arrrooooowwwwwsssss, FFR!

Big Button =]
Posted at 11:54am on January 5th, 2011
Interesting new update! Can’t wait to see what it has to come.
Posted at 12:46pm on January 5th, 2011
I pressed it and it ate my fish. Is this a good thing?
Posted at 1:13pm on January 5th, 2011
All replays converted, engine updates will arrive later tonight. If all goes well.

In all honesty, i hope Aperson stays with us. He’s done so much work lately and never lets us down.
Cheers bro. Waaay better than before, glad to see why have good people working on FFR now. Velocity, Aperson, and everyone else who’s here atm. Gj
Posted at 6:04pm on January 5th, 2011
Is there any idea on when leveling up in MP will be established again? I need to get a token still XD
Posted at 6:26pm on January 5th, 2011
Multi & Getting Velo’s engine running as the main one are top priority after replays are fixed.
Posted at 8:54pm on January 5th, 2011
I WANNA PUSH THE BUTTON. >:l
Posted at 10:53pm on January 5th, 2011
Okay I assume we can agree that we are thankful for velocity and apersons work towards restoring replays.
I assume we can also agree that no one here actually cares for you being the first,second,third,etc. person to post a comment. I myself thank you guys for your commitment to ffr, and am looking forward to Velocity’s engine being the main one, I hope Video Chat returns soon as well ^_^ Great times in there, also thank you for foxing MP and Pro Chat
Posted at 10:55pm on January 5th, 2011
And of course, most of us REALLY want to press that big red button, so I suggest a random widget placed in a pointless area(Like a token of sorts except it unlocks nothing) that contains a BIG RED button for anyone who is truly that bored. Just suggesting, again I thank you for your help towards ffr. ^_^Big Red Buttons are fun
Posted at 9:02am on January 6th, 2011
Yes, like many others, I was very sad that I could not push this button. Reason behind the button aside, I still just really want to push it.. -.-
Posted at 2:58pm on January 6th, 2011
I can’t connect in velocity’s engine. :/
Posted at 3:27pm on January 6th, 2011
Anyway you guys can fix the replays while you are moving them around and stuff so that the replays actually playback properly to how you played the songs? Just a thought
Posted at 3:59pm on January 6th, 2011
That’s why we wrote a new replay format and are converting the old ones to it sno.
Posted at 7:36pm on January 6th, 2011
*Attempts to press the button*
Posted at 7:53pm on January 6th, 2011

I was wondering if the multiplayer might ever work with the standalone flash player?
Posted at 11:09am on January 7th, 2011
It does work in the standalone.

My SAVED replays are gone! D:
Posted at 4:46am on January 8th, 2011
So are mine. =(
Posted at 12:47pm on January 8th, 2011
Hey, when is saving gona be up!
Posted at 7:56pm on January 25th, 2011
I can’t connect to multiplayer . cmonn
Posted at 8:43pm on January 25th, 2011
My saved replays are fine, but I wish the dates they were actually created were still intact :/
But there is one issue. My replays always MISS the first note, and then the rest goes fine.
Posted at 1:30pm on January 26th, 2011
okay, i see that saving replays is up on the beta.. but what about the regular non-vetran-only ffr?
Posted at 9:08pm on February 4th, 2011
its not working. its not connecting for me =/
Posted at 4:01pm on April 3rd, 2015
does anyone know how to watch your saved replays
