Nice code, i will have a blast with it.

I allso ran into the "pure virtual function call" bug, but it turns out that i was trying to read channel 50 of two possible, like this module->spectrum_data[50][0] when it should have been like this module->spectrum_data[0][50].

So now i have a pyramid flashing the tree colors in tune with the music(not jumping as the original was)

Thanks a lot for coding it up.

My pleasure :)

What are the "rules" for using your basecode? I assume we need to keep your dialog screen bitmap in etc. etc. and credit you, but are there any other special requirements (I see you released it under the GNU)?

Actually, those graphics are there as examples of things you can do. You can change them if you want. I also dont really need credit, although it would be nice (mention in the readme would be perfect). I originally put the GNU stuff in to cover my legal back (quick fix, so to speak). Do you guys think it was a good idea?

As for the contest, given the timeline, I think we should have the submission deadline around Jan 7th. That gives us about one month to do our stuff and get it submitted.

A few questions:
- is the deadline ok?
- how many people plan to enter? (again, this is a mini contest with an entirely new style; anything you code will be breaking new ground)

Hey there; this is my first post on the NeHe forum. Just wanted to let everyone know that I'll be participating in this contest as well.

My name is Shawn Silsbee by the way; I have entered the two most recent NeHe contests (and had the worst demo in each of them ;)). My GL skills have evolved quite a bit since January, so I'll see if I can come up with something interesting.

I will *if* I have the time.

Also I wana say to those who are fairly new here don't be afraid to enter, you dont need to be great, it's a great learning tool to try a contest.

I'm definitely entering. The 7th Jan sounds fine to me as a submission date.

@FluxCapacitor
Looking forward to seeing your new, improved, skills. I liked your city from the last contest [smile]

Cool,

Looks like we have enough people. I'll setup the contest page and other supporting docs for this contest as well as take care of a few other details (start fixing bugs).

Cheers,

Ok I plan to enter.

Hey I'm trying to get the winamp plugin to work.

I get an error that pops up. "Error loading screenshot."

Does anybody else get this? And how do I fix it?

I'm running the winamp plugin in the debugger.

Ahh and it fails on the line:
HRESULT hr = OleLoadPicturePath(ole_path, 0, 0, 0, IID_IPicture, (void**)&ipic);

Ahhhh.

You need to copy the data files too! Got it.

For those of you who want to run the plugin in your debuggers. Just follow these steps.

1. Copy the debug dll to the plugin directory.
2. Copy the debug pdb to the plugin directory.
3. Launch winamp
4. Open the plugin source code in Visual Studio
5. Go to Debug->Processes.
6. In the available process list, select winamp.exe
7. Click Attach.
8. Set a break point in the source code.
9. In winamp, load the visualization

'lo, does someone use Dev-cpp / GCC ?
I can't manage to make it work.
I get ride of all errors, dll is created but winamp can't load it. :/
The sample in winamp SDK works.
Can we enter the contest using a different basecode ?



Sorry for my english.
