LBPC Crown Contest #3 - Synched Up!

[Lord-Dreamerz]

He's trying to say that if you have a music sequencer set to 60 beats per minute, and a logic sequencer set to 1.0 speed (the duration of one beat), they should run synchronised. You can do this with a few other speeds, too:
75 bpm = 0.8 speed
100 bpm = 0.6 speed
120 bpm = 0.5 speed
150 bpm = 0.4 speed
But if you try to divide 60 seconds by a beat length of 0.9 you get 66.666 bpm, which has a fraction you can't deal with. Then you'd see the music sequencer and logic sequencer run out of sync.

ummm... err... oh your saying the logic sequencer and the music sequencer don't run at the same speed?...
well I'm not sure about that kind of stuff as i've never tried to Synch stuff in this way before...
so it all sounds like nonsense to me. anyways I'm not gonna worry about using logic sequencer...
as you see most things will react to the tags i put in the music
but I'll make sure to Synch any logic sequencer i may use for whatever reason to the beats right
by feeling it out and watching it all work...

all them cold soulless numbers you shown me means nothing to me right now...

I just want it on the record: I am entering this contest and I do not grant permission to anyone else to use or remix any of my music in their entries for this competition.

Good luck everyone, looking forward to see what turns out.

[OmegaSlayer]

Foof decision has my official record.
Any level that would feature any kind or piece of any Foofles' song will be disqualified.

Obviously if any other music composer wants to ask their songs to not be used, he can ask in this thread.

QQ! (Quick Qustion) would the judges look and favour a level that has its own orignal music? Or one from the LBP2 music?

The major point of the contest is synching stuff, that's why we picked that title.
It would be unfair to judge on music since it's a pretty subjective thing, so we will take in consideration the efforts of creating original music, but as I mentioned you could also build something just out of noises, the important thing is the synching.

Fading_monkey and me (xSLEVENx) want in

Excelent

[MegaNarwhal]

I don't think I should bother with this contest, music is not my thing. Oh well, I'll just wait for the next one. Hope it's something that I can use my logic knowledge on!

Argh! Having a major tantrum with LBP tonight. First section looked good to go, until I put game cameras in and the whole lot started lagging lol! I think anyone considering building a level which is made of more than just holo/neon or VERY simplistic detailing is going to have issues. I forgot how quickly lag becomes an issue with complex synching.

/me bashes her head against ps3 remote.

Ugh lucky... I'm still working on getting my music sequencer alone to stop lagging the level

[rialrees]

lol well ive decided to keep my music simple, but hopefully it will be effective

problem sorted now thank lord. I chose to forget that I was using water material... as soon as it came on camera lag went nuts. However, If it wasnt a synch level, you wouldnt notice!

Hope everyone else is making good headway on their own projects too - cant wait to see what goodies you all have in store

[Shadowriver]

I would really like to see some game play involved

[TheRussianSack]

I'm trying to get my new levels up (I'll be so happy if mines are eligable for this CONTEST). My level gonna be a grappling hook level. Check out my profile on LittleBigPlanet 2, you'll find a a survival challenge , and a tutorial!

[OmegaSlayer]

I'm not the greatest creator around, but I can share some thermo effective tips.
I always build everything in cardbox and dark matter, (and dissolve in LBP1).
Then I replace the materials only when I've finished keep sure that I have at least 30% thermo left for materials change and stickers/deco.
That's how me and Miglioshin achieved to make a 40 minutes level in LBP1.

Hope this will help you guys

[DDTheGamer]

I'll give this one a shot! I'll post the link if I actually finish :3

[UberOrbPS]

*Do not use level links. Only single levels should be submitted.

I never realized how truly evil the contest crew was until I started working on my entry and found out the first 30 seconds of gameplay takes up over half the thermo! I'll have to find some ways to cut back

This is gonna be an interesting contest!

(ps I don't really think the contest crew is evil... You guys are great )

[hamorgan]

I am totally in this.

[Dortr•]

Hahaha! This theme couldn't have come at a better time! I'm in and my entry is already pretty much done.. Well the gameplay part... Still need to make the sequencer and make the music do all that pretty stuff.

[wolverine_2008]

Please keep doing these contests until I have the gain the nerves to enter one.
