Re: ffr iceberg
 

The way things go with those icebergs it usually starts to break down into nonsense and conspiracy theories as it goes down, but FFR does have a long history with some quirks which could be scattered throughout. Here are several of old tidbits and secrets in no particular order:

- *Whimper Wall* (and that time it was abused to get a top 10 all time GTS entry when it wasn't supposed to even allow you to gain score from it, because of FFR R2)
- FFR R^2 existing at all
- The real FFR R^2 (Resonance)
- Secret FC/AAA squiggly lines toggle
- Absolutely ridiculous prochat admin features (I can haz bucket?)
- The original undiscovered colors file with no judge review
- D7 Chat
- The great gambling hall scandal with duped bets
- The FFR Konami deal
- FFR Offline Engine(s)
- FFR unused and widget songs
- Dev webpages like this
- The FFR RPG
- Home key songs
- FFR Special Mix
- Inverse Hakulyte and their -7 trillion GTS
- The SSFFRC
- The man behind the FFR silhouette
- 0MGWTFT0K3N originally just being a convert of Gigadelic because reasons
- An active FFR staff member BSing in a tourney
- The AAAA grade
- FFR-B43-12102002.exe (DO NOT RESEARCH)
- TC_Halogen TC_Halogen TC_Halogen TC_Halogen
- MrRubix's 50 years of FFR
- That time an active member posted a legit dick pic in a thread
- FFR rainbow unicorn edition

finally, an iceberg expert

Re: ffr iceberg
 

remember when u guys thought i was a man

Re: ffr iceberg
 

I love you

im too fucking high for this video right now

im dying

Re: ffr iceberg
 

i need to know what FFR-B43-12102002.exe is

Re: ffr iceberg
 

Entry tier:

Ghost notes in Legacy Engine which made people get higher scores than max score.

Mid tier:

Boo glitch in Velo Engine. (would be kinda funny to see someone FC Strangeprogram v0 with this, but it's patched.)

Deep tier:

Whimper Wall Top 3 leaderboard.

Re: ffr iceberg
 

I desperately want to know what went on with that

Re: ffr iceberg
 

I'm glad another person could witness that video for the first time mellonxcollie, it's amazing.

Sure, just download this random zipped exe from some person's 15 year old web server, what could possibly go wrong?

The original context is about what you'd expect, people looking at the odd shadow and making passes at what the person actually looks like. This entry was one of them and it fucking killed me when I saw it, nothing else came close. As proof of that, since I don't have whatever thread it was on hand, here is my far less ridiculous submission from that time.

Ooh man I forgot about boo glitch, and the ghost note stuff reminds me of another old engine secret:
- 0x scroll speed and the infinitely mashable goods once the note appeared (the objects would stack until the game crashed, but you COULD complete certain files like excite bike with like 200 goods)

Re: ffr iceberg
 

Not only is this absolutely OBSCURE webserver still up and running, I'm amazed ANYONE retained its address. Fox, your archived data and knowledge needs to be catalogued and pasted somewhere for the rest of us to see.

So much of this shit I've completely forgotten about. You are like a living, breathing, bipedal chunk of nostalgia, presumably with opposable thumbs.


Please share more secrets. I insist.

Re: ffr iceberg
 

Hmm, okay I'll do a few more.

- A recording of FFR Special Mix for your viewing pleasure. It was an FFR tutorial of sorts.

- That time nois-or-e proposed through the medium of an FFR level / special token in the form of a wedding ring. Only they could play the song legitimately, it was called Miles Away and I archived the vid of the proposal. I have the actual level recorded in higher quality too if that interests you.

- That time when Choof's robotomy was converted to FFR officially and was on the engine for a bit.

- A number of people remember various Home key songs like Dub-i-dub but maybe something a little less remembered is this old file for Chrono Trigger Boss Theme. This looks easy because of the bot play but in reality this file has a few 0 framers hidden in the rolls.

- In the beginning of 2011 a song was silently removed from the FFR engine called Hyperactivity. They thought no one would notice or care, well it's been a decade and I still remember stargroup. A Video for your viewing pleasure.

- Many non navigable FFR pages exist, have a small chunk from a status from Goldstinger. I like this one, very ominous.

- That prior to FFR's return in 2010, Velocity was actually making FFR engine mods at the time. He was a part of a splinter community site called ASA, where the Velo engine makes a debut housing FFR converts of Ravemeister pack songs.


- An old video of Tasselfoot showing off the new beta legacy engine features for subscribers to the platform: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0GMcac4e77s

- An old FFR t-shirt design that I actually forget if ever saw the light of day or not. Fair warning, huge image.


- That time when the scores table on FFR got nuked and had to be restored from some backup, many unrecorded score reports ensued. I forget the time frame for this event though.

- Proof D7 chat was a thing, an elite invite skype group back in the day

Well below the depths of the iceberg...

Re: ffr iceberg
 

why i myself wont dive into that sketchy site of the ffr12102003 shit i would love if u could explain in depth fox :)

Re: ffr iceberg
 

It's actually safe and not a crazy thing. Back in FFR's inception Synthlight had downloadable versions of the engine and all of its songs packaged within an exe. You had to register to download the game zip from the site, however I wasn't around during this time at all. Thewaybackmachine helped me figure some stuff out on my own, and I guess with FFR being very popular...some people had mirrors and I could collect them.

You can actually see me demonstrate the engine in a video I made 9 years ago at this timestamp:
