Well, I got everything done. Except, I could use some sort of background. Maybe something that flashes different colors at regular intervals...

Also, I think I'm willing to make a contest frame for this, as soon as I can figure out how to actually replace it.

It's easy. Just put a file named "STG_Frame" in the "img" folder in the root of the danmakufu folder

Dayyyymn, there go my chances at a decent placing.  :V
But yeah, one week was quite little time for a contest with such extraordinary limitations.

I might revise my scripts, improve some cards ore replace them altogether, but I don't know if I'll have the time...
I figured two weekends might be enough, but considering how many people were saying stuff like "I'll submit but I only have..." or "If there were more time, I could..." I was dead wrong.

ITT Blargel showing his soft side !
Obviously I have a soft side! I mean a bagel is soft right? Even if I'm toasted I still become tsundere: hard shell with a soft inside. :V
And for those who are scratching your heads at that comment just now: Blargel -> Large bagel.

I hereby present the (un?)official frame for this contest!

In case you can't tell, the two pink lasers are supposed to be the L in Laser

And my entry:

I don't recall being informed of this change, but I'll keep it in mind.

You may want to alter it somehow. I just tried and the script didn't work.

Mine? Hm, it's a self-contained folder... wait. Do you have the Shot Replace-v4 script? You'll need that. It should be installed in "\lib"

This is not self-contained.

Man, what's the point of the /lib folder anyways?

All it does is cause unnecessary headache

It's only a headache because we're unorganized about it. People who release things that require stuff from the /lib folder really should be telling us which files should be in there and giving a download link to all the stuff that is needed for his script to work. It really is more convenient to everyone else if you just package everything together though, even if it does cause more repeated code between scripts.

Also, AweStriker:
Quote from: Blargel
If I download your script and it errors out on me due to missing shot replace files, absolute file paths, or similar things, you will be disqualified during the judging period.
That implied that I expect the scripts to run regardless of where I extract it, even if it's in a brand new th_dnh folder with no lib.

IMO: Lib folder should die, it shouldn't ever exist. The only three folders that are legal to be created in your DNH folder should be: 'se' 'img' and maybe 'manual'  if you want to add Html based manual.

Aside from that, anything that has to do with scripts do not belong there.

How would someone that submitted 3 spellcards be "graded" as opposed to submitting just one? Is the scoring going to be done on an attack-by-attack basis, or on the person's entry as a whole? In other words, is having one really good spellcard worth more than having 3 kinda good ones?

From my perspective, quality is generally preferred over quantity. The only thing is that with three cards you have a variety of opportunities to impress the judge instead of just one.

Basically what Drake said. Quality over quantity is preferred (quality AND quantity would be even better :V), but when it comes down to it, all the judging is really gonna be done with my gut feeling. If there is a submission that is just one awesome spellcard and a submission that is three slightly worse spellcards, then the three will probably win. If, however, the three-card submission is two okay cards and one pretty cool card, the one awesome spellcard will probably win.

here's my entry:

Even though this is my first post on the forum I've been around for a while, mostly reading tutorials and stuff to learn how to use danmakufu.

as for the script, I happened to run across something while experimenting with CreateLaserA the day before the contest was announced, so out of pure luck I had most of my entry ready before the contest even started. :D

It's pretty challenging to make playable laser-only cards.

I'm almost done with my entry, don't expect anything too fancy :V

So Blargel...

I'd still like to know whether my entry is fine the way it is or not, because two of the attacks feature lasers one may consider too bullet-esque. If you told me now, I would be able to still whip out another spellcard or two to replace the card(s) in question, but tomorrow I may not have enough time to get them done before the deadline...

I seriously haven't downloaded anything in this thread yet and my internet is being terrible. A general guideline I guess would be that the laser is 3 times longer than it is wide or more. You can PM me a screenshot or something if you want because I'm not going to be downloading anything until judging day.

Okaay, I'll attach screens of the two cards to this post. Note that the lasers in the second one don't move, they just appear and fade away again.
