Re: Change log

Back to important things.

We're all aware that FFR has been around for a long-ass time. Technology, however, continues to march forward. To my knowledge, the existing R1 engine was built using Flash 8, but here we are in late 2010 and Adobe has come out with a version 10, which I've heard a fair bit of whining about when the compatibility issues cause frame rate drops and whatnot in the middle of a game (I know I've had such an issue appear and disappear during the same play...my 8-0-0-0 of Mou Uta was one such example). Eventually, due to the ongoing march of technology, legacy code to fix compatibility issues with a new version of the same program is dropped in a version release in order to lower the time and cost of developing new versions.

I guess the point I'm trying to make is to start a discussion on whether or not it's time for a rebuild. Yes, such a project would be inordinately time-consuming (look how much effort it took to make R2, and 3rd Style is almost as much a running gag as Duke Nukem Forever) and eat up developer time for other projects, but it would be a necessary evil in order to preserve the game for future generations.

If production of an upgraded FFR engine ever comes around, I will be happy to assist.

So uhh... we're a step ahead of you on this one. Don't worry we got it covered.

Silver Sky: see this thread. Don't assume nothing is going on, especially when it has been voiced in the forums by multiple users and staff has shown that there is in fact progress being made - it's extremely rude.

Re: Change log

Token security added. Users may not record scores for any tokens they don't have. Also, illegitimate token scores will be erased shortly. One step closer to total security

Re: Change log

I assume once enough new songs go through the queue, there should be a new official tourney.

Re: Change log

Make it so anyone who earns 1 bil in one day can get vrofl, that way I can get it.

Sprite- won't do it because of how the users behaved last tournament. I really wouldn't mind helping though.

Re: Change log

Yeah and in the future I'm going to work on making it so that you can't even download the .swf level files if you don't have the proper token / purchase requirements.
