I am trying to reply to this topic but the forum will not let me (it just returns to http://www.gamedev.net/community/forums/default.asp when I click reply) *shrug* :/ http://www.gamedev.net/community/forums/topic.asp?topic_id=293610 Winamp contest over! Let the judging begin... Could a mod merge these threads please. -------------------------------- Hi my name is John Baker or my superhero name is Rovastar. I have been involved in creating Winamp visualizations for the past few years (MilkDrop, GForce, R4, etc). I am one of the reviewers (I think I am the only one left) on winamp.com and moderate the visualization forums there. I had no idea that a competetion was running here for creating a festive Winamp GL visualization plugin until I saw on the homepage of NeHe the following. "WINAMP GL CONTEST ENTRIES ONLINE Who could ask for a better group of visitors. The entries from the Winamp GL 2004/2005 contest are now online! A contest created by, designed by and organized by llvllatrix aka Rishi Ramraj. Amazing work on his part! Not only did he host the contest, he also faithfully recreated the contest pages to match my site layout (making it much easier to get the content online). A big round of applause for Rishi Ramraj!!! An even bigger round of applause to everyone that took the time to enter the contest. Not as many entries as we've seen in the past, but the level of quality in each entry is simply stunning! Download winamp... visit the contest page, and start downloading! If you're having problems installing the winamp plugins, find Snow Globe by Michael Wallace and click the "LONG DESCRIPTION" link. There you will find very detailed information on installing and running winamp plugins. And hey... it only took me 3 months to get the entries online :( “ But no links (it talks about a website *shrug*) or anything so I went to the forums and no search but eventually Google and digging pointed me to this thread. I am pleased that such interest has been made and I look forward to checking these plugins out soon (no opengl compatible computer atm and will not have for some weeks. arrrrragh:/). There has not been much new stuff come out that I have found in the last couple of years. R4 (http://www.rabidhmaster.org/R4) was the last good one which Gordon wrote and I did a far few scenes for now though. Congrats on what has happened so far. If you decide to do another I’ll probably have a blast myself now my OpenGL skills are getting up to speed. Also did you post about this on the Winamp forums? I didn’t see anything about it but we do get swamped in the forums through so maybe I missed it. With future planning I will get something like this feature on winamp.com homepage and *maybe* get Nullsoft/AOL TW involved some sort of sponsorship for it. BTW Have these plugins been submitted for publication on Winamp.com?
