"Unesessecary."

submission: The NG Rules

date: March 5, 2008

The reason why it isn't in a flash (especially like this) is because still text is much easier to read. With the text always moving, this gets really hard to read, and makes it much easier to miss something. Now if you made buttons that went to different sections of the rules, then maybe it would be ok.

But in all honesty, the BBS rules are fine where they are. People just can't find something that is supposed to be quite obvious to find.

"Awesome sound"

submission: The Space Guy

date: November 29, 2007

Awesome preloader. Awesome sound effects. Oh, and the animation was pretty good too. I was sorta expecting a bunch of colors and other stupid stuff when he goes in space, but you just got lazy >:(

Good for a quick laugh though.

"Intro needs to be way shorter"

submission: Megaman Deleted Stupids

date: November 14, 2007

Ok, first of all you need to shorten your intros by a lot! I don't care that you were bored and made a flash, a lot of other people make flashes too. And sprite flashes at that.

And in my opinion, most of the jokes were not very funny, and nothing really stood out in my mind. I think you need to work on your scriptwriting, then start doing some more flash again. Oh, and the use of those sound effects were pretty weak (I mean, how many times did I hear the same generic scream in this?).

I think you need more work in setting up what you are going to have for a flash animation before you animate it. Hope that helps.

"Drums need major work."

submission: [LY] WIP DnB

date: March 13, 2009

The drums need major work so far. One of the most important things that you need to get in there is a good snare drum. It sounds really empty without one. And the drums that you do have in there sound really drowned out by the reese. The hi-hat line thing you have is alright, but to me it just kinda sounds out of place or something. Overall the drums just sound way to weak to me. Because of the drums, the build up sounds really disappointing, I would expect some massive sounds after that. One technique that sometimes works after a build is a short, but not distraction, silence right after the build.

The synth work in this isn't too bad, compared to what I can usually do. But the reese just sounds kinda simple, but not too bad. Maybe a little plain sounding, but if you could something else to fill up some space with, it would seem better. Right now it just sounds plain and empty to me.

Hopefully this helps.

"Some quick tips about DnB."

submission: <nife> Dnb Loop Wip

date: September 30, 2008

Here's some quick and very brief things about drum 'n bass:

Do not use that bass that you have in there. All it is is a saw wave. You have to add on many more effects to make it sound really good. If you want a deep and subtle bass, try putting a lowpass filter on something that you have messed around with a bit, and if you don't get as an audible bass you want, you can add a really low sine wave (and only a sine wave, no effects needed) to get the sub-bass sound you might need. If you want to get some crazy reece's going, you can try looking around for tutorials and getting new VST's (like Hotelsinus Reese Bassline), but all you really need to do is practice putting something like two detuned saw waves and adding a bunch of effects over it.

As for the drums, you can probably get really good with putting drum loops together. It isn't the greatest here, but it's a really good start. Try throwing in some more variety; more patterns, drills, rolls, ect, just to throw together a more interesting song.

That's about all I can think of, keep practicing.

"Quiet and distored bass isn't good."

submission: Revving DnB (preiew)

date: September 16, 2008

I don't like how the bass is super distorted, and quiet too. I think you should bring up the bass volume just a bit, and maybe use less distortion or maybe bring down some of the higher sounds in it a bit quieter.

I think you also need to throw in another synth in there or something (which I'm assuming you're going to do, because it's a preview). If you were to leave the song how it is now, I think it just sound way too empty to me.

The drums have a pretty good rhythm, but there's just something about them that just doesn't seem right to me. I can't put my finger on it, so maybe it's just me...

Other than all that I think you have a decent song in the works here.
