Title: Danmakufu Contest (RaNGE 13): Contradictory Catastrophe! (Judging Complete!)
Post by: Sparen on January 19, 2015, 03:31:01 AM
RaNGE 13: Contradictory Catastrophe!!
(http://i1164.photobucket.com/albums/q570/SparenofIria/ContradictoryCatastrophe_zps6e1f11da.png)
(Name credits to Spectral Nexus)

Stream will begin at 7:30 PM EST on February 19, 2015 and will be hosted at http://www.twitch.tv/sparenofiria (http://www.twitch.tv/sparenofiria)
Final updates to your scripts are due 24 hours after the end of the stream - 8:30 PM EST on Feb 20, 2015

**Miransu will be joining in the stream with voice commentary!

***Since 10 people have shown interest in participating, I have labelled this as RaNGE 13, assuming AAA and ICM to be RaNGE 11 and 12, respectively.

Suddenly, all of Gensokyo woke up to quite an unusual phenomena! All of their abilities became the opposite of what they would normally be! Sakuya was making time flow (Credits: Sariel), Miko was suddenly deaf (Credits: Spectral Nexus), Parsee is suddenly happy with her life (Credits: Spectal Nexus), and Utsuho suddenly... does... uh... Nuclear Fission? (Credits: Trickysticks).

Contest Description:
-You must create a boss battle (see boss requirements below) with at least 3 nonspells and 3 spells. Having dual bosses is recommended but no longer required. Midbosses and stages do not count towards this total, although I suggest limiting a midboss (if you want one) to two attacks.
-You must use ph3 [.1 pre6a] or later.
-The boss(es) must use the exact opposite of their ability while still staying true to their danmaku style. You are not restricted to the scenarios above. Whatever crazy thoughts come to mind are perfectly fine.

Restricted Bosses: You may not use the following bosses
Prismriver Sisters
Characters only appearing in PC-98

Restricted Pairs: You can do any boss combination except for these
Benben-Yatsuhashi
Shizuka-Minoriko

**Please choose bosses that have a legitimate opposite ability. -_-
If your boss does exactly the same thing he/she would normally do in a danmaku battle, then points will be docked.

Notes and Additional Rules:
-Quality of Danmaku and usage of the boss(es) combining their flipped abilities in an original and creative fashion is what matters for judging
-Effects are nice but are not as significant as above in terms of judging
-There is no maximum number of attacks for the boss, but quality>quantity
-No other enemies besides the two you have chosen may appear (with the exception of a mid boss)
-Be as true to the characters' danmaku style as you can while... well... overturning what makes them what they are? I mean, if Sakuya can make time flow...
-Have fun! The entire thing is as ridiculous as it can be regardless.
-Meiling/Komachi players are not required. ^_^
-You can cause as much chaos and utter destruction as possible as long as it is true to the character in some way and... preferably playable.

Submission Guidelines
-You should release on Bulletforge. If you decide to release your script on Mediafire, it is your responsibility to deal with making sure that the link under 'participants' is the version you wish to be judged.
-The name of your submission (project name) on Bulletforge should have 'RaNGE 13' and/or 'CC'/'Contradictory Catastrophe' in it.
-If your script crashes or freezes or brings up an error, that will dock you points.
-Please use .ogg for music. To export to .ogg, Audacity (http://audacity.sourceforge.net) is a free sound editor that most of you should probably be using anyways.

For reviewers:
Please refrain from making videos of a contestant's entire script until after the contest deadline/submission is declared final.
Please refrain from writing publicly accessible reviews of a script until after the contest deadline/submission is declared final.
**Contestants may post their entries on Bulletforge for constructive criticism before the deadline but all reviews must be PMmed to them or be sent privately.

Participants (to record boss(es) already taken):
**For participants that have not submitted, this information may be inaccurate.
**Information here is based on what is said in-thread
**There is no rule stating that you cannot use the same boss as someone else. However, we recommend choosing different characters.

Notes on DNHArt (http://sparen.github.io/dnhart.html#sub1) and DNHFart Videos:
~To quality for a DNHArt or DNHFart video, you must be using music that can be used on Youtube. This means no ZUN music CDs after Magical Astronomy. To clarify, you can use official Touhou music and most remixes without problems. Just don't use any music that can't be found on Youtube, because there is probably a reason for it.
~Your script must run at an acceptable FPS without bugs. Aim for 60. If you have an excessive amount of graphics, you may want to consider configuration settings for disabling certain effects. I have a 2.8GHz Intel Core i7 with 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 RAM, and I run Danmakufu under Wine. If your specs are lower than these and your script runs at 60 FPS, then you are most likely fine.
~I will not view any scripts before the contest deadline.

Videos by Judges
**DNHArt videos will only be made after the judging period has started.
**No videos by judges will be shown until after the submission deadline.

Um... you can always look at other people's code in order to understand how to control a stage... (please don't copy their code verbatim).
But yeah. It will be a long time until I get enough time to write about proper stages.

For reviewers:
Please refrain from making videos of a contestant's entire script until after the contest deadline/submission is declared final.
Please refrain from writing publicly accessible reviews of a script until after the contest deadline/submission is declared final.

How about no to both points. If the script is made available to the public, then it is open to reviews and other criticism, as well as a recorded video.

~Your script must run at an acceptable FPS without bugs

Define acceptable, because you know you have a hard time playing scripts in the first place due to performance issues. What if you personally can't run it but someone else can?

I think he means that public reviews or videos should be held back until the contest is over. Because reviews/feedback might create an unfair base for the contestants to make last minute changes in order to score higher. Same goes for video. Though I understand your concern.

The best way to solve this is to make the submissions private as PM and publish them once the contest is over. But that is up to Sparen to discuss/handle.

This has been clarified. And yes, it was written due to your comments on RaNGE 10 and the issues surrounding public reviews of a script (which would sway a judge's opinion).

Define acceptable, because you know you have a hard time playing scripts in the first place due to performance issues. What if you personally can't run it but someone else can?
This is for the video only, not for judging. Chances are, a script will be denied a video for a completely different reason. Regardless, clarified slightly. I've done videos of scripts running at 30 FPS in the past.

Clarification additional info about the 10th Rika contest > I indeed requested people to hold back their review-style reviews (did that make sense =S ). As in: some people started posting "official" reviews by adding scores and suggesting things. That is why I had stepped to ask the people to stop pretending to be judges.

There was a huuuge drive to learn ph3 ever since .... ever since ph3 came out, really.

I know you're quite comfortable with v0.12m, and I don't know how long ago you started, but I think, a contest is a perfectly legitimate and motivational way to start learning another language along with v0.12m. I mean, having experience in both versions is a good thing. It's how I got into ph3.

... Well, that and v0.12m does not work on Sparen's Mac. So there's that. I don't see how a judge could evaluate something that he can't run.
I'd complain about why Sparen insists on judging it, but eh...

さてさて、みんながんばれーー!

Yeah. That's the reason - I can't run it anymore.

(A new version of wine also broke .ogg in ph3, but that isn't relevant since I have an older version to use)

Regardless, it's a good idea to learn ph3. You're (Bob) already quite competent in 0.12m, so it should be relatively simple to transition to ph3 from this point.
My transition guide (http://dmf.shrinemaiden.org/wiki/Sparen's_0.12m_to_ph3_Transition_Guide) may be helpful at times, and there are far more resources for ph3 now than there were before.
You may also find that people can actually run your scripts without having to use AppLocale now. ^_^

It's completely up to you as long as it makes sense. But remember: it has to have a noticeable effect on her danmaku.

EDIT: Also, remember that it's her ABILITY that's changing. If being a good teacher is an ABILITY to you, then go ahead. Otherwise, rethink your approach.

i'm afraid to learn ph3(though i know it's much more flexible,but still)
I will be using 0.12 pretty long period of time so
Could you give me(and my friend) permisson to take part in other contests and in this one too?

I would have to run your script in a virtual machine/hard drive partition, and I don't even know if it would work on given platform, so the answer is, unfortunately, no (unless you want one judge's score to double count)
The main difference between 0.12m and ph3 is that you need to make sure everything gets deleted correctly and objects perform the way you want them to.

It means music that has copyright from ZUN (or any copyrigthed music) , if you were to use copyrighted music and someone got a strike whe  they uploaded, you both cause a problem because now they have to remove their video of your script

As for me :v , Im joining, except i dont get the "plot". do i just litteraly reverse the bosses' ability? , so like Cirno using fire or something?

No, feel free to use Touhou music. It's just that Sparen refuses to record scripts that use ZUN songs for some resource use reason or something like that.

You can use official Touhou music and most remixes. As stated in the OP, you may not use ZUN music from CDs after Magical Astronomy because he will take down any videos using those bgm.

Do whatever you feel is interesting and will allow you to create a creative and fun script to play. ^_^

Mirans, the ONLY songs I specifically ban are from Labyrinth of Touhou and ZUN CDs after Magical Astronomy.

I'm gonna participate using Cirno for the boss. My script will probably be very bad, as I have only just started using danmakufu ph3 about a month ago and I can't really make anything that looks great, but at least I'll have fun with it.

Having fun is the important part! Pass it through a bunch of beta-testers for feedback - you will learn quite a bit about how to improve your work that way.

I'm calling dibs on Rumia Patchy before anyone else can. Probably in the same position as ArbitaryRage up there. Only thing I've made in Danmakufu so far is a player script and the first non-spell for my submission.

ANNOUNCEMENT

Please show non-EoSD characters some love. -_-
There's what, PCB, PoFV, MoF, SA, UFO, TD, DDC...

There are plenty of characters to choose from, you know. Don't have to stick with the classics.

Regardless, I am now posting notes on restricted characters as well as submission format.

At the same time. Unless one is a mid boss, in which case it should have the mid boss attack limits.

Because the Charming Meemon is a Dima.

And dual-bosses tend to bring out more interesting things, especially when their abilities are as screwed up as much as in a contest like this

TresserT, Arbitrary Rage: Acknowledged.

Sine the roster is mainly for my use, it doesn't really matter what bosses you 'claim' - as long as you have decided what you are going to do for the contest, it's fine. Then again, it's best to choose characters that someone else hasn't chosen, so that the chances of judges seeing two of the same thing is lower.

I've been reading and wonder: No idea how you folks try to judge this, but sounds like a difficult task. I hope there won't be negative judgement just because a character has appeared X-number of times. Same goes for someone who gets overly positive judgement because picked a "unique" subjective character. Or in other words: Biased judgement should be avoid, regardless of the choice.

There won't be negative or biased judgement if multiple people choose the same boss(es) - it comes down to quality of the danmaku and creativity after all. Personally, I just don't want to end up with RaNGE 10 Reimu syndrome where there were like 10 Reimu bosses and I was sick and tired of Reimu by the end of it.
Title: Re: Danmakufu Contest: Contradictory Catastrophe!
Post by: Helepolis on January 28, 2015, 09:26:40 PM
That is exactly what I mean though: A judge is a judge, even if you have to see 1000 Reimu's you need to keep the same pose/attitude towards them and judge according to "requirements". While you can encourage people to pick different characters, discouraging to not pick the same because it happens to be their favourite is kind of iffy.

I am pretty sure that Olympic Figure Skating with mandatory movement (where they have to do a number of mandatory things in between) is also pretty much "getting sick of it". Not saying there will be biased judging but noting the rules for the contest and requirements, I would personally have a hard time judging this. So I am curious how it is going to turn out.

If 1000 Reimu's happen then we're going to have trouble keeping the Youkai residence alive :V

Edit: Unless the Reimu in this contest isn't exterminating them but multi---- Oh my  :X

The resolution of that text looks very poor. You may want to consider obtaining a higher resolution/larger image and scale it down if you are using images for the text. Same for the difficulty. Additionally, you may want to consider text objects if you are not yet using them, since they are vector based rather than pixel based.

I doubled the text resolution. The difference is not evident but it's seems better on the difficulty text. Thanks.

Not Seija stg frame. The lives and spells are cutsom (or it only based on modified bullets at least).
And the lives/spell count start from the right and not form the left like in Zun games (maybe that's what you mean by "flipped").

TWO WEEKS REMAINING!

At this time, I would like to state my current plans for what will occur at the deadline.

Sometime after the deadline, new submissions will be closed, and I will do a stream of all the entries, pointing out various things. From the end of the stream, contestants will have Exactly 24 hours to fix any last-minute bugs/address issues that came up in the stream. Once those 24 hours are up, judging will begin.

Once judging has started, you may not update your project until judging has been completed.

The order in which DNHArt videos will be made depends on the scripter's satisfaction with the current state of the script. If he or she would like to submit updates after judging is completed, I will postpone the creation of the video until the updated version is released.

Deadline Extension

So I've been thinking about this for a while, but I've decided that I will extend the deadline by 3 days from Monday, February 16, 2015 to Thursday, February 19, 2015. This is due to various things shoving themselves onto Monday night, some of which are mandatory for me.

Once again, at 5 PM EST on February 19, 2015, new submissions will no longer be allowed. I currently plan to stream all entries at 7:30 PM EST (this is not official judging), and you will have until 24 hours after the end of the stream to update your projects. After that, judging will begin and you may not update projects until judging has been completed.

If you do not want me to make a video of the judged version for improvement purposes, please notify me. Make sure to submit by posting on this thread: remember that you should host on Bulletforge and follow the submission guidelines in the Opening Post.

Additionally, it is not mandatory that you announce who your bosses are on this thread. Anyone can submit provided they notify me (and preferably Trickysticks) about their submission. It is highly encouraged that they register for an account on MotK and post, however, as that is better for organizational purposes.

One week left from today with the new guidelines. Continue Danmaku'ing!

P.S. As of now, my university has done some really strange things to Skype, so I cannot actually communicate with my fellow judges in my dorm room. We have yet to finalize a rubric (if we are to have one), and we currently do not have a means of dealing with any 0.12m entries. Personally, I propose that out of the 20 points per judge, we sum the squares of the top three scores of the four, and for 0.12m entries, my score will count as a 0. Judges: if you have alternate ideas, send me an e-mail or talk to me on Facebook/Twitter.



Edit @Feb 13, 2015: For further clarification, it is fine to use ZUN, CtC, SCC graphics, etc. in this contest.

For reference, the way I will compute the scores is based on the average of the individual attacks, and it's always better to have fewer, higher quality spells than a lot of boring and repetitive ones. There is no shame in barely meeting a minimum requirement if you do a good job with it.

I forgot my BulletForge password because I set it to something stupid, so we gotta use Dropbox and stuff.

It doesn't even have sound effects or music or a background or any cut-in things or any spell card names showing up. (But the names are in the spellComments.txt in the order in which they appear.)

I suggest removing the dl=1 flag. If you decide to update the project, please edit your post above - use s in brackets to strike through the old download link and state "EDIT" with the new one.

One difficulty is fine as long as there are a reasonable number of lives and the difficulty is not murderously hard.

Maybe just MAYBE one difficulty then upgrade to 4 difficulties. And im still thinking of whether i should give infinite lives now due to one difficulty or remove it later when i have more difficulty

Removing the flag gives more options and may prevent unwanted instant downloads.

Infinite lives is fine.

It's cool Bob. A bit hard but very fun to play. But your bosses have too many life. I just time out all the spells with defaults Reimu. Maybe you should put less life or include a player script that can kill them.

There is a standard DPS for players, which should be taken into account when making scripts.

https://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,5219.msg700302.html#msg700302

Adjust the HP of your boss accordingly so that the standard DPS rates can take it out in a reasonable amount of time, and if you are not using a default player for testing purposes, please state which player(s) the script is balanced for. That will clear up most confusion in regards to too much health

Note that in ph3, the standard DPS is a little higher than in the above post, which is for 0.12m.

You're welcome. And whenever in doubt, have someone else play it using whatever player they want to (unless you have packaged a specific player with your script)

Notes:
-Are you packaging pre6 or pre6a? Since pre6 has a number of bugs, it may be better to package pre6a. However, as long as your script works the way it is supposed to on the version of Danmakufu you have packaged, it's OK if you leave it as is.

I was going to do that anyway.
You should play the stage because it has an ending. It doesn't have any dialogue, but it's different than the usual enemy exploding. I'll make that more obvious, and move the descriptive stuff into a read-me and possibly my post with the dl link.
Also I'm not putting any cut-ins because I don't have any images, but I could get some. I just don't feel like it.  :V
But I'll actually have the names of the spellcards appear in-game, although it's a bit ugly, but making it pretty isn't really the point of this contest anyway. (Even though making the actual patterns pretty is. :P )

Replay isn't working for now,though.

He said he's going to update to final version later and posting it on Bulletforge.

If you can look at the Manual , it says it is to be played on pre6a or later, because the previous version would error this script royally :v

As kirbio said i will update my entry in due time....probably after the contest because theres a lot in the list that should have still been in this playable version but ultimately scrapped to reach the deadline. i apologize for the very unbalanced difficulty (given that you have infinite lives though i hope i can compensate), as well as replay not working

-Bob the Tanuki (0.12m)
-Zhan Fox (0.12m)
-HopeMetal
-Searinox **If you manage to fix up your script to a point where I don't die every few seconds, then I will give you a video.
-TresserT **If you can fix up the menus and make it clearer how to play the game, then I may actually be able to get a 1cc.

Others, such as Kirakishou, may make videos, however.

Note that except for 0.12m entries, I may make a video of your script in the future if you update it to a point where I can 1cc it/it meets quality standards.

For everyone's information, I have completed my portion of the judging, and we're finding bugs here and there. It's not pretty, but there are always ways to do things.

Notes:
HopeMetal: Your recent updates to your script are pretty nice. I will consider a video after the judging period if you decide to further enhance your script
TresserT: My god adding the backgrounds really improved the aesthetics of your script. Anyways, you may get a video... eventually. The thing is that by playing normally on Easyish mode, I can only get as far as Spell 4. I've tried Spells 5 (survival) and 6 (GFW) in your stage/boss folder with the Medicine Practice Player, and it seems like it will be impossible for me to survive through either of those, even if I turn on Autobombing (the mat). As a result, I cannot give you a video as of now because I cannot beat the entirety of that script. And on that note, AchySolrock, one of the judges, seems to have found an exploit in the player script, but it's not practical to use.

P.S.
[2/21/15, 12:21:41 AM] Trickysticks: Bob's crashes if you skip the dialogue

Don't fix it now, but be aware of it so that you can fix it after the judging period has ended.

And with that, Sparen out! There is a chance Trickysticks will manage to get videos for the 0.12m entries in the near future, and I will try to get acceptable replays for some of the ph3 scripts soon.

EDITS:
Lefkada: How do you select a route?

[2/21/15, 12:27:56 AM] Trickysticks: The 0.12m entries are going to be a headache
[2/21/15, 12:28:03 AM] Trickysticks: I'll have videos of both by tomorrow
^You have his word for it.

Post by: TresserT on February 21, 2015, 06:26:21 AM
Ehh? That was fast. You can't practice the spells that way, as they default to a higher difficulty. The other 2 difficulties are supposed to be jokes, though, so they're essentially impossible. Though I suppose that doesn't solve the issue of you not being able to get there on Easyish.

Lefkada: How do you select a route?
It's on the 1st spell. If Letty take more damage, you'll fight Letty on the rest of the script. If Lily take the more damage, you'll fight Lily. And you get the lastword of the boss you don't fight.
And for the first 2 nonspell it's Lily in Normal and Letty in Hard (and there is no Hard-Lily or Normal-Letty).

I forgot to put a readme in the file. So I add the informations on bulletforge.

Yeah. It's exactly the same fight pattern and the sames mechanics (2nonspell, 1multiboss spell, 1 alternative nonspell & spell and 2multiboss spells).
And if you notice...
Restricted Bosses: You may not use the following bosses: Prismriver Sisters > Primsriver-like fight
Restricted Pairs: You can do any boss combination except for these: Shizuka-Minoriko > Aki Sisters player

For those of you who are interested, when I judged, Lefkada and Lunar tied to the first decimal place. I don't know what the other judges have done for those two scripts, but the tie seemed to be sheer coincidence.

Additionally, the final method of judging has been determined: The judges will all give a score between 0 and 20 (8 for danmaku, 8 for originality/creativity/theme, 4 for other aspects such as menus, effects, etc) and I will be curving them to standardize them. I will sum the squares of the top three curved results to get the final score.



EDIT: Apparently I'm not the only judge who can't run 0.12m. There's a chance that the other(s) who can't run 0.12m will be judging off of Tricky's videos. Regardless, I'm surprised that the judging is already more than half done.

Helepolis: That last comment spawned some very... interesting conversation. ^_^

I'll be sure to output videos of the 0.12m scripts for the other judges as soon as possible, and from there judgment should proceed quickly. 

and they said 0.12m would be obsolete

Both Achy and I have finished our portion of the judging. Miransu and Trickysticks have 3 and 4 entries left to judge, respectively. Expect the results to come out soon!

Judging is coming along relatively smoothly, as long as no more irl issues happen with Tricky and Miransu. If all goes well, judging will be done tomorrow.

Ah Yes, the Surprise Conrestant wins again , grats Kirbio , This was a nice contest it gave me a chance to script koakuma and daiyousei (while not having their original ability but i guess its fine i just wanted to experiment with danmaku beauty tbh) and i experienced making a dual boss fight for once so thanks sparen. I would admit the script is rushed but anyways i had fun in the end , i dont know if i would update it one last time to add more things i want but considering theres already videos of it. I dont want people to rerecord.

Actually, it's better to not have contests one after another. There were just two contests (ICM, Artifact 3), so few people participated. The longer the break between contests, the better the odds that there will be more entries and better quality entries. I scheduled this contest to take place directly after Artifact 3, which only two people bothered to submit entries for, so it's best if we go at least two months without a contest - that way people will be able to finish their projects.

Congratulations  to Kirbio :toot:

Hmmm it looked as if there were more participants but eventually only 8. Contests are always hard  :ohdear:

Time to hop aboard the bandwagon and wish Kirbio a well-deserved congratulations on his script as well. :toot: 

But really, congrats to the other top-scoring scripters as well.  I saw some really cool stuff there--cooler than anything I could've probably come up with for the concept (for the record, the best idea I could think up was Mokou using water-based versions of a few of her IN spells--with the appropriate twists of course--but I just couldn't think of a creative enough angle to put on everything).  I considered joining the contest, but an unholy combination of lack of free time, motivation, and good ideas prevented me from doing so.  Instead I spent the time working on a personal project, which I'll end up posting soon enough. ::)

I look forward to the next contest though.  I'm hoping I can actually think up something clever enough by then.

Kirakishou7 has uploaded his videos of the contest entries - see the second post on this thread for links.

EDIT: Links and contest results have been shoved in the existing DNHArt videos.

TresserT, Searinox, HopeMetal: If you release a new version of your script, that would be great.

TresserT: Your replay menu apparently doesn't work, according to Kirakishou

It's true. I've just tried to open it, and when you try to, the thing crashes, and you have to restart Danmakufu.
