+fav

This pack blow my mind, the superscopes. Nemo , you're the best!

kewl.

i dont know why i didn't see this earlier. this rocks my fucking socks off dude. well worth the DD and another fav

I have to say: Beautiful! An asthetic mindblower!

I was quite stunned when I saw these beauties.
So fast, so simple, yet so amazingly supreme in style!

Loved ivy symphony and shadowplay. The latter is outstanding for me.
Got a little melancholic comparing these simple "avs-flowers" to my own over pimped up, flashy, effect piling, slow thingies.

aru going to make another avs preset pack? if so when is it going to be released

I like this work. Good use of abstracting text. The work has that stylized graphic design look to it.

Just downloaded the new version, but I'm sure its gunna be great. I'd fav but I already did for the beta

Brave and you almost pulled it off

I really like this pack as a whole when compaired to alot of el-vis/UCD wannabes out there at the moment but I've got a few niggles which I cover first so you get a warm glow from the end of this comment. 'floors' and 'fabric' don't seem visually simple enough; and as a result stick out from the rest of the pack distracting from the visual purity of the designs. The same goes for 'amc' which could have some horizontal p.o.v. moment added to spice it up.

I'm enjoying the whole vibe of '45' which would look great as a background for all those overly trendy wine bars (I'll suggest they get it the next time I'm in my favourate cellar bar) as well as 'balloons' the simple perspective effect works really well. 'Symphony' looks really good and reminds me of BBC4's between program graphics. 'Ivy' has a unique stylistic effect I haven't seen done that well in avs. 'blossum' kind of trendy retro stylings, but hey still original enough for me to like it.

A great attempt to create a bold graphic style.

Peace

That's such a nice design!! I love the typography, it's clean, flowing, and interesting to look at

errr....i'm sorry....but i was just wondering...what is this for?

Stunning work! Love them all and especially preset "45"

Cool It's like when you take a paperclip, un wind it and fool around with it, bending it in different shapes

i changed my opinion

actually i'm experiencing some problems when viewing these presets in fullscreen (800x600, doublepixeling). when i switch from blossom to fabric (or from fabric to floors), the screen starts flashing like mad. i guess this has to do with the interactivity features.

Awesome! I'm watching some of these great presets right now, so I'm too busy to leave a good comment. Great job, and thank you for this great pack. I'm going to have to give this a .

Dude, I'm really liking the mouse interaction and new vis's. Great job

installer got fucked...

Erm... doesn't the ALPHA come before the BETA?

great (x10) pack, the new presets rock, the old presets are cool still.
btw. i liked chrysanthemum even though the new preset are better (esp. fabric)
already given to the BETA so no fav here, sorry

this is an alpha, right?
so you still have some time to fix blossom for fullscreen ^^
instead of the "first frame only" clear screen, use a normal one inside an effect list (Ignore/Replace)
put the following code into it:
lw = w; lh = h; enabled = 1 - band(equal(lw, w), equal(lh, h));
this way, the clear screen is not only done on the first frame but also on resolution change (when the user rightclicks the avs window and selects fullscreen, like I did

For the clicking problem (as you stated in fabric) You can just use click=bor(leftclick,rightclick)

Well the new stuff is of course great, and good idea to remove those three presets. But i still can't understand why won't you use texer II? Or are you saving all those presets to the final megapack?

Pipedream would look so much more smoother & better with texer II's i think...

i like your avs presets however i'm more interested as to when you will release the final version of scenery since i check visbot.net 3 times every day to see if it's there which can be fustrating

fav for: ivy and symphony

Wow, I just stumbled upon this now, and it's excellent. My suggestion, drop some of the presets that rely entirely on trans/basic effects and keep making presets that are based around scopes, whether simple or complex. You have some really original stuff here. I love Symphony, Shadowplay, Popples, and Balloons especially. Can't wait to see the final version of this!

Amazing work once again. Loved all of them

I've never coded a vis, but I must say that this is a very nice, minimalistic pack. My favorite by far is Scenery.

Time for a

perhaps if you could do 3d it'd be cool . . . *just a minor suggestions*

fast is sexy / / sexy =

Wow, just wow. I love the style, response, and technical brilliance acheived in this pack. Although I do agree with ucd on the RGB issue, but otherwise mighty fine effort this pack.

I'm very impressed, this pack has some of your best work, specifically:

45, Blossom (although the responsiveness is fairly low), Popples (gotta love that letterbox stylization), symphony (captures the principles of the pack well)

Some of the colours could do with a rethink for presets like dissapate and dissolve, and although ivy is a good concept the jittery fadeout and jagged curve edges lose it a bit for me.

I agree with coned about putting the intro first rather than stumbling accross it in the middle of the pack, as for your 'mission statement' , you must have known people were going to kick up a fuss about anti-code sentiments. As a programmer one of the most exciting aspects of AVS is the ability to explore complex programming principles in a simple enviroment. AVS lets me play with complex geometry and visuals in code the way a child plays with lego, and thats what I love about it.... you dont want to take that away from me do you? I try to vary my packs, but I'll be the first to admit that other people do music response and pleasing visuals better than me, but so what? I make packs to share the fun I have making AVS, I make them for me more than the people who view them.

Why would you say "Stop treating AVS less like programming and more like art" ? By taking a medium and telling people what to use it for surely your going agin the very principles of art you are preaching in favour of! How would you feel if someone made a technical pack and wrote "Stop treating AVS like a moving canvas and more like an experiment in programming" ? I bet you'd feel pretty outraged that someone was trying to tell you how to use AVS.

"AVS is art.", how about "AVS is whatever you want it to be"

Anyway, I understand your concern, but dont share it.

Good pack, that was my original point wasnt it?

yep, there was some good works [floors, ivy, simphony, scenery], some presets that may be good, but they are not [popples, isotimescopes] ... i didn't like another works...

well, atleast i want to say that this pack is very unique, cause it is not for everyone, just for the dudes that is not like me... sorry, that's just my opinion, and it's just honest.

Very nice pack. It runs very fast. I'll give a few constructive comments on presets that I think can be changed.

Dissipate: I think you should change the movement or album you should make it a dynamic movement.
Floors: Some resolutions screw up the texture. I run 256x169, and there's a distracting line on the pattern.
Mizaik: Some values, like sin(t2)*.4, can be calculated in frame for a minor speed boost.

Wow, this pack rocks. I would love to work on a remix pack and I think I'm not alone.

OK... This is a great pack. Ivy rocks.

wow... really refreshing pack. loved most presets. beautiful, stylish, yet responsive and fast visuals all the way. my faves have to be:

blossom
ivy (amazing preset, love it)
shadowplay
symphony (love how it all works together, very fun to watch and the interactive thing wth the mouse is pretty cool)

i can only suggest more variety in terms of shapes, i saw many presets with squares in them. stuff like 'ivy', curvy and sexy

+fav!

well what else can i add to what has been said above. i do agree with el-vis about dissipate and dissolve (not my kind of colours) and i didn't really like chrysanthemum (same reason as dissipate and dissolve). otherwise it just plain and simply amazing

Amazing qork and amazing concept!

mmm, deviantart does wierd stuff to tabs

Wow, nice pack. I get some whacked fps, around 100 with most presets, some even 200 on 500*500, without wait for retrace or pixeldoubling, and about half the fps on 640*480 with fullscreen.

45 Nice colors and reaction, I'd change the movement to something like
d=if(above(abs(y),.8),asin(d*10),d*.5), because the border is to big in
some resolutions
balloons Change in color over time would be nice, for the rest its ok, a bit boring maybe
blossom Just beautiful, awesome fps, love it
crysantemum Not my taste, I don't like the colors
dissipate Definately dont like this one, it doesnt fit in with the rest of the pack
(stylish and square vs messy), the colors are bad IMO. A bit noobish preset
disspove same story as dissipate
floors nice idea. It could be sped up by putting te ssc sand movs in an
effectlist with a buffersave, then turn on effectlist override with the following
code in it:
enabled=bnot(band(equal(ww,w), equal( hh,h)) );ww=w;hh=h;
and put the source in the DM on the buffer. This gives a 40% fps boost, and
looks just the same.
isotimescope awesome, pure visualisation at its best
ivy excellent movement and colors, and really fun to watch
mizaik guess i'm not a tonic fan
popples The borders look cool, but the scopes are a bit boring
shadowplay: very stylish, but the mous controlled scope should have a mirrored copy on
the y-axis
symphony very chaotic, in a very, very good way

Whoa. Simply insane.. They're all pretty much the same style, with a few exeptions here and there. Best presets IMO: ivy and symphony

I have to fav this... But i must say that that coding IS an art. Simple is beautiful... That is why isotimescope is great.

Great: blossom!, IVY!, 45, mizaik, shadowplay, floors, isotimescope, scenery
Dont like colors in dissipate, dissolve and chrysantemum (maybe that is me?).


Cool idea with the ascii art but could be more smooth! Try doing like this in the effect list:
b=if(above(b,5),0,b+1);
beat=equal(b,0);
enabled=1;

and remove custom bpm and set movement to y=-2 in the frame event. Also using the terminal font gives a more stable frame rate (e.g. not true type).

Great!

1. I love the concept of this. FPS is a essential thing in AVS. Presets with high fps are so much more fun to watch since the music reaction is great and fast movements are smooth.

2. For presets speeding up / reacting with the volume of music I suggest this running average setup by synth-c and improved by me:

fdelta = frames to build the average
bufstart = first buffer to store the values for average
mval = music value used for average


INIT: bufstart = 50

FRAME:
mval = getspec( 0.4,0.8,0 );
fdelta = 100;
fc1 = ( fc1+1 )%fdelta;fc2= ( fc1+1 )%fdelta;
assign( megabuf( fc1+bufstart ), mval);
tot = tot + megabuf( fc1+bufstart ) - megabuf( fc2+bufstart );
speed = tot / fdelta;


45 - Amazing. Great style and response. Love it!
balloons - cool but something is missing, perhaps some size changes
blossom - Nice retro style. Like it! But since my music input is very high the big hexagons tend to fill up the whole screen in one color.
dissipate - hm, do not know. Didn't like the colors.
dissolve - like dissipate. I think I agree with some others that these two need a little workover?
floors - very stylish and cool colors. Perhaps add some dynamic things in var size.
ivy - love those curves but I think would like it better in b/w
miziak - great fullscreen preset
popples - love it like 45
shadowplay - oh yeah what a wonderful simple but effective setup. Style at work.
symphony - cool, reminds me of these first vector 3d-games. Fun to watch
chrysanthemum - Great
isotimescope - Like it! I wonder how these would look using my slowmotion-SSC setup
scenery - too good to "just" be an intro but could remove the text myself

Very excellent, but i would suggest changing "dissipate" and "disolve" for others. These have a very different feeling when compared to the others. They just don't fit in.

wonderful pack, and it's just oozes of proper quality visualisation
the simplistic approach is stunning and is really good
but i would say that a preset like dissipate & dissolve is my taste but still,
i dunno. the ideas is great but it needs something extra,
floors is really eyecatching, just because of it's stylishness and play with alpha
ivy also stands out, but the only flaw is that the curvationlines looks bad in fullscreen
shadowplay is also very magnificant,

great pack! i'd give you 2 favs if i could
these presets are of great artistic value while not being toooo abstract
my fav in that pack is "symphony", in fullscreen of course
