Wicked, thanks Ben
Chris Roberson - Tue Sep 29, 2009 7:43 am
Looking forward to it.
VSTJuNkiE - Tue Sep 29, 2009 7:58 am
Yay, bring it on.
On a side note, I think you should announce DC 10' as soon as DC09' voting is done. That way ppl have whole year to build something
jobromedia - Tue Sep 29, 2009 8:23 am
Dude this is so good that I've got some extended time to finnish my killer plugin. \O/
duncanparsons - Tue Sep 29, 2009 11:22 am

Minouris - Tue Sep 29, 2009 12:39 pm
Excellent!
Good luck, everyone ianweb123 - Tue Sep 29, 2009 3:21 pm
Excellent, i will almost certainly offer something up now.
xoxos - Tue Sep 29, 2009 9:08 pm
yes!
jobromedia - Wed Sep 30, 2009 12:04 am
Good to see some old devs entering too!
daz.diamond - Wed Sep 30, 2009 1:00 am
looks like there's plenty of time for tweaking now then ... 
GaryG - Wed Sep 30, 2009 1:06 am
I'd just about given up (lots of ideas all smouldering on the workbench...) but maybe I can whip one of them into shape now...
cool!
jobromedia - Wed Sep 30, 2009 1:09 am
Hell yeah the tweak is on! If you guys are intrested in what I've got going then you should check the "Just teasing" topic and listen to my audio teaser.

The form is available.
__F__ - Wed Sep 30, 2009 1:02 pm
I've just attempted to create an entry, at first looks OK - but the form keeps saying "No files uploaded for this entry" after me having managed the best to upload my zip file..
What am I doing wrong?
NEK-X - Wed Sep 30, 2009 6:21 pm
Hi
and many thanks for updating !!
but i have one little Problem with the "friendly name"-function:
i uploadet my file straightforward, but the columne "friendly name" is "unnamed" ??
I have entered a name
but he isn't displayed ??
How does this work? What do I make wrong?
Many thanks in advance.
Kind greetings ....

Yikes, I screwed something up. Could you try again now?
__F__ - Thu Oct 01, 2009 9:10 am
Just tried again, same effect ("No files uploaded for this entry"). And, the "Friendly name" field is blank back when I re-open the form (my description etc being still there).
I'll be AFK since this weekend till the end of Oct (worst case) - so I have to submit my vsti ASAP..
__F__ - Thu Oct 01, 2009 9:30 am
Oh well.. I just tried to do that in another browser (FFox - instead of Opera) = and all worked, the file appears to be there.
The archive includes my vsti dll plus manual in html format, hopefully it's enough for a valid entry (?)
Thanks..
NEK-X - Thu Oct 01, 2009 3:39 pm
Hi
and Ooopsss... it works
Many Thanks Mr. Ben
Kind regards ... and Good Luck to all Develers

daz.diamond - Fri Oct 02, 2009 12:42 pm
A quick submission Q :
for the purposes of DC09, is a 32 bit windows dll considered as being made for linux ?? I know its not a linux native vst plugin, but I hear of much success with wine in running windows vsts under linux - does that make my plugin cross-platform, or is the definition more rigid, as in native to the o/s ??

I quess I'll upgrade my plug, and refine it.

Question regarding the entry form. Will this form stay online so we can update the plugins when new changes are done to it?
sonicase - Sat Oct 03, 2009 1:53 am
ah nice, i needed some extra time
de la Mancha - Sat Oct 03, 2009 1:57 am
Which also raises the question of should entrants be allowed to update after the 28th October? Bug fixes only? New presets/samples? New features? Not at all? The rules are a little vague in this area, but I'd be inclined to only allow bug fixes.

Hi
i think Bugfixes are okay ....
(if you have some bugs
)
new functions ?! perhaps someone posted a "newer pluggy" with features
from an other Developer

shame,though,i was telling my boy to finish his plugin cos there may be prizes for everyone.
if there's only cash for the top 3 or 4,then i guess only the 'pro's' will win.

IMO, no it doesn't. Wine is providing the platform for your plugin, which is still single-platform. Claiming cross-platform portability via emulators[*] makes a mockery of cross-platform support.
[*] Yes, I know Wine claims to not be an emulator, I don't know what it claims to be though, so emulator is a good enough term for here.

Exactly. It must be native to the platform to be considered native to the platform.

It's just a time issue. If someone wants to get involved and manage non-cash prizes feel free.

pant, pant.. If only days weren't so crowded. Even with this generous extension I don't know if I'll make it.
DSP and supporting code is all done, works fine. UI needs to be written... Made a start, getting straight back to it!
Oh, and it's my birthday at the moment - thanks Mum and Dad for timing it so that after 38 years it impinges on a very important deadline!
NEK-X - Sun Oct 25, 2009 4:52 pm
Hi
Happy Birthday Mr.duncanparsons ...
My modest contribution is also present
To all participants a lot of success!

...Have fun...

duncanparsons - Mon Oct 26, 2009 2:25 pm
ta for all the birthday wishes. Thank Heaven for Skinman! I have a UI - just need to do the coding, which thankfully is fairly simple.. Mainly setting X, Y and an image. All the events are pre-coded
can't rest yet
jobromedia - Mon Oct 26, 2009 9:46 pm
Added 16 new patches, packed the synthedit sources + related skin resources into a package to be put up on sourceforge and in the kvr package. Reuploading the new version shortly.
Ben [KVR] - Tue Oct 27, 2009 10:07 am
Please could everyone (who hasn't already done so) upload at least one full size screen-shot of their entry!
Ben [KVR] - Tue Oct 27, 2009 10:09 am
Oh, and one or two entries have no description!
jobromedia - Tue Oct 27, 2009 10:46 am
I've tried to add a description, but as I said in this topic whenever I save the description it doesn't show up in the field when I return to upgrade my plugin with more files. Fix that, and I'm sure that more will add descriptions. If this remains is it ok to upload a description as a text file?

Ben [KVR] - Wed Oct 28, 2009 2:18 am
There are still five missing descriptions and two that have descriptions but no files. There are four that have no description or files.
I won't shut of the new entry form on the dot of 5 PM as I'm off out around then so late-ish entries will be accepted until much later tonight.
During the voting period the form will stay live and active for any entries already submitted so you can refine descriptions, upload new files (incl. images and audio demos) as you wish.
Of course any plug-in / application files uploaded should be for bug fixes only once voting has begun.
jobromedia - Wed Oct 28, 2009 2:26 am
I hope my entry is ok.
bootsie - Wed Oct 28, 2009 4:45 am
Ben, so from tomorrow on its possible to promote/advertise as well as offering separate downloads of our plug-ins in the usual way in the blogs and forums, is that right? Or are there any restrictions on that?
duncanparsons - Wed Oct 28, 2009 5:22 am
Phew, I'm in..
Ben, have had a small issue with the description plugin using Chrome. If I made an update which included a web link or bullet-list, it failed to update; however FF2 was OK. IE7 (x86) worked, but I saw raw HTML rather than the natty plugin, but that's probably some setting my side
bootsie, I'd have thought linking back to the DC page would be the gentlemanly thing to do to some promotion of the event. Even now I generally link to DC06 or DC07 when referring to my entries

check the lettering case on the extension. I had my image in "*name*.JPG", and it didn't work, so I renamed it to "*name*.jpg" and it uploaded fine.

During the voting period - until December - please only provide the download via KVR - promote it everywhere though - you'll be able to link directly to your entry! After voting has closed feel free to do what you like!

I wanted to especially tip my hat to you sir, after seeing what the delay was probably about for entries with the upload form, I must say you've devised a brilliant system for this year in allowing entries, demos, and pictures into organized sections, and allowing each developer to control their own products too. Kudos.
