Darkroom Coming?

I too was waiting for darkroom to appear. Any news on this?

I hate to say though that my plan was to render movies to play on the Aquos LCD in the living room, but in the meantime I've got an XBOX360 and use the Jeff Minter visualiser in that instead. Sorry about that.

Foobar'd

Thanks for the thread link - all very disappointing. Ah well, maybe I'll try a few other apps. I was just using foobar as I have Vista on the laptop and I was trying apps out.

Nice bike avatar BTW - Monster ?

Foobar and G-Force

Recently I've been using Foobar on my Winbox and I just wondered how to even try to get G-Force working on it. I had a quick Google, but nothing lept out (I was rushing on a business trip, so don't flame me - I may have missed it). I know it's not a fully supported app, but I thought I'd ask (using ...

Vista Performance

I've just been playing around with Vista on a laptop here at work, and decided to stick GF on and see how it goes. it seems to work OK - screensaver is fully functional as is the WMP visualiser!

This laptop only has a Windows Experience Index of 2.1 so it's a bit sluggish.

Clouds n shaders

Just as an addendum, in the full product (or at least in the Platinum version) : Settings > Use High Quality Rendering Turn this off, and the clouds appear like the config key Jon pointed out. To follow up to Jon's response, is it that the Intel GFA950 Macs can't do this for a hardware reason, or is...

Darkroom

FWIW, if you have access to a Mac, you can use Soundspectrum's own Darkroom App.

Bots

I got the feeeling phpBB attracted bots; a phpBB based forum we ran a couple of years ago was tiny but still attracted plenty, so we moved it over to punBB when we restarted this year, and it pretty much stopped the bots. Thanks to the mods who are nuking spam-posts. I hadn't thought that that would...

[*Worked Around*] No clouds on Intel MacMni

Thanks for the reply Jon; It's on the MacMini so far, so that's the epic Intel 950 gfx chipset ;) (Actually that's fine for 99.9% of what I use it for). I found the file you mentioned, and altered that value and *it worked*. Out of curiosity, I also took a look at the SoftSkies boot.txt file, and th...

Off topic: forum member count

Just a missive here; I noticed looking at the forum member list that out of 2582 members, 1826 have never posted. Some look like bot accounts, but I'm sure many are not. I was just surprised that people would take the time to register, and not post. I know any forum has a lot of 'one posters', peopl...

Didn't see it either...

I might be doing it wrong, but when I log into my GF download area, I see the advert for a 20% discount on SoftSkies on the right, but when I click it, it still says $30 for Platiunum.

No clouds :(

Whilst the SoftSkies screenshots look nice, all I get in iTunes on my Mac (see profile) on the free demo is a nice blue gradient. No clouds. I've tried playing with some options, but nothing as yet. Any ideas? G-Force works fine. Although I don't have my Mac linked to my LCD TV I would like to use D...

GF using GPU now?

I thought the newer versions used the GPU? *If* that's the case then I would image most modern GPUs from nVidia or ATI (6xxx/X8xx respectively) would be fine.

That said, a quick CPU can't hurt either on the back end.

Darkroom Universal ?

HI. Sorry if I'm missing a post, but is there any chance Darkroom will ship as a Universal or Intel binary? I just upgraded my 4 yr old G4 and I'm keen to make that naughty Intel CPU suffer...
