@Honcho, thanks, will fix it. But please tell me - this isn't you either, right? http://janeway.exotica.org.uk/author.php?id=44604

dipswitch - 12:52 26 April 2021 #

OK, now I see the mix-up. Fixed everything now.

Alias translated: "It's me Stian Krogstad. Hope this can be fixed., Gizmo is correct, but it is not Tor Linløkken who is Real Name"

Hi,

this demo https://demozoo.org/productions/13774/ is not a product of ZeroTeam (although it is by 2/3 of it's future members), it predate it for few months. Demo was released in October 1995, ZeroTeam was created in April 1996. We mark it on our website as pre-ZeroTeam era (zeroteam.sk).

To clarify the things - I am one of the authors (ales, later ellvis, it seems ellvis username is already taken here on demozoo, I use nick evills also on irc and pouet)

https://demozoo.org/productions/293572/ - delete, needs to be a music release instead

rtiainen - 06:31 28 April 2021 #

https://demozoo.org/productions/223801/ and https://demozoo.org/productions/128568/ are the same production and shoud be merged

phoenix, aliases/names fixed, prod removed by request.
evills, changed in some way.

https://demozoo.org/parties/39/ - I'm pretty sure the Exile group in the Organisers list and linked in the description is the PC group (https://demozoo.org/groups/41460/), not the Amiga or C64 group (there was in fact a PC demo compo at TG93). It's the same group that made the PC invtro for TG94.

https://demozoo.org/parties/699/ - the NAID CD was unofficial (I produced it :), but had the support of the party organizers.

Saga_Musix - 15:23 2 May 2021 #

Text updated. The group affiliation was already updated by someone else.

phoenix - 18:22 3 May 2021 #

Merge https://demozoo.org/sceners/65972/ into https://demozoo.org/sceners/11897/

FlashyLamer - 00:02 4 May 2021 #

can you remove artwork from: https://demozoo.org/music/5277/

someone added it on accident.

tomaes - 10:34 5 May 2021 #

Removed.

yx - 20:20 14 May 2021 #

https://demozoo.org/graphics/294429/ is a dupe of https://demozoo.org/graphics/294427/

100bit - 20:29 14 May 2021 #

yx, already removd

phoenix - 21:32 18 May 2021 #

Merge https://demozoo.org/productions/229858/ and https://demozoo.org/productions/233059/, same intro.

phoenix - 19:46 29 May 2021 #

Three demos named "Noname00"..

https://demozoo.org/productions/19389/ - by DCC, from The Party 1997 - this one is correct
https://demozoo.org/productions/27318/ - by DCC, from Abduction 1995 - party is correct but it's actually by Napalm
https://demozoo.org/productions/68718/ - by Napalm, no party - this is the same demo as 27318.

So, merge 27318 and 68718 - group is Napalm and party is Abduction 1995.

Bjorn - 17:41 1 June 2021 #

I made a mistake while creating the Party https://demozoo.org/parties/4297/ , It should be under the party series https://demozoo.org/parties/series/716/

exocet - 20:34 1 June 2021 #

Phoenix: all fixed!
Bjorn: that appears to have already been fixed

100bit - 20:35 1 June 2021 #

phoenix, done
Bjorn, someone fixed it <o ><o >

Bjorn - 08:22 2 June 2021 #

Sorry for the newbee question, but the party series was only based on the party name?
In this case, "Atari Connexion" became "AC" (I don't remeber the year but I can found it) to avoid patent trolling and include other computers. ;)

phoenix - 16:50 2 June 2021 #

https://demozoo.org/productions/280656/ is a duplicate of https://demozoo.org/productions/28285/

exocet - 18:54 2 June 2021 #

Bjorn: no, a party series can contain parties with totally different names. If you can find the year 'Atari Connexion' became 'AC', we can update the party names.

Phoenix: fixed

ericorsio - 09:02 3 June 2021 #

Delete: https://demozoo.org/productions/295072/ as I later added it as a GFX entry.

Saga_Musix - 11:04 3 June 2021 #

Done.

phoenix - 17:40 4 June 2021 #

https://demozoo.org/productions/295097/ is a dupe, delete.

phoenix - 18:03 12 June 2021 #

Since I can't seem to add https://demozoo.org/productions/267305/ to https://demozoo.org/competitions/16516/edit, can an admin do so and delete https://demozoo.org/productions/295360/ for me?

phoenix - 18:09 12 June 2021 #

Also, merge https://demozoo.org/groups/20222/ and https://demozoo.org/groups/106335/, same group.

menace - 08:09 13 June 2021 #

phoenix: All were handled, except that last one, that I did now.

You really should come hang in our Discord, which would ensure quicker turnaround for these requests.

FlashyLamer - 05:17 19 June 2021 #

https://demozoo.org/sceners/11216/ and https://demozoo.org/sceners/17044/ are same person i am sure

Gargaj - 16:08 24 June 2021 #

https://demozoo.org/groups/20887/ this is not an actual group, it's an alternate nick.

menace - 19:52 24 June 2021 #

FlashyLamer: Seems legit. Merged.

Gargaj: Seems one of the other admins already fixed that - whatever it was :P

rtiainen - 11:19 26 June 2021 #

Don't know where to ask so I'll ask here :)

Why screenshot was removed from https://demozoo.org/productions/294943/ ? Asking so I can upload a better screenshot next time.

ltk_tscc - 09:33 27 June 2021 #

rtiainen: Maybe it did not match the rules... e.g. bad quality I guess. I don't know the case but maybe it was a .JPG with artefacts.

This might help too:

https://demozoo.org/pages/screenshots/

rtiainen - 15:55 27 June 2021 #

ltk_tscc: Ok, thanks.

It was jpg all right - a 1280x720 px frame capture from a video I recorded from a real hadware. I was just wondering if there was something particular that I missed this time or something more systematic that I should be aware of for the future.

ltk_tscc - 16:15 27 June 2021 #

rtianien: Well if there exist a binary we prefer screenshots from emulators with the proper screenshot size instead of videos. I guess that "doubled" the problem :)

rtiainen - 18:23 27 June 2021 #

ltk_tscc: All right, didn't know that emulators were preferred. No problem, I will generate sceenshots using emulators in the future whenever possible. :)

100bit - 20:00 27 June 2021 #

rtiainen, yep, this. these screens were in quite terrible (as for me) quality, with 16:9 blacklines when the aspect ratio is about 24:17 with borders (?), and also upscaled. what ltk_tscc said - we prefer the native resolution screenshots in such cases.

rtiainen - 16:19 28 June 2021 #

100_bit, yeah, it was upscaled and converted to 16:9 with sideborders, just like you said. Quality is what it is, the C64 is not exactly top notch on quality video output. But if emulation is preferred, that's perfectly fine - I'll just need to work some automation to generate bunch of screenshots with VICE from a given demo.

Would it be possible to get feedback on such cases, so people know what's the issue, like marking some reason in the edit log? For example, deleted due low quality or something like that?

rtiainen, you can always open a Github issue :) https://github.com/demozoo/demozoo/issues
phoenix, done

phoenix - 19:10 28 June 2021 #

https://demozoo.org/productions/130829/, https://demozoo.org/productions/130826/, and https://demozoo.org/productions/200715/ are the same prod. I guess keep the first one, since it has party and credits, but give it the full name of 200715 to match Pouet.

fenarinarsa - 23:07 28 June 2021 #

https://demozoo.org/productions/295912/

This is the intro video of the Place to be 5 party. I don't know how to link a prod to a party... thanks ;)

https://demozoo.org/parties/1602/

exocet - 10:58 29 June 2021 #

Phoenix: all done

Fenarinarsa: I have added the video to the out of compo releases at the Place to Be 5. Thanks a lot for sharing this. We are still missing quite a few of the Place To Be releases across the years, please share them if you happen to have them :)

vincenzo - 16:42 4 July 2021 #

https://demozoo.org/productions/296183/ and https://demozoo.org/groups/21378/
Padawans and Lethargy - tho there are similarities in member list - is not the same group under 2 different names.
Would it be possible to create a Padawans group and migrate the one and only demo over?
For further details please read Trivia: https://csdb.dk/group/?id=11419
Thank you.

menace - 11:57 5 July 2021 #

vincenzo: I'll fix. Thanks for the heads-up!

menace - 11:59 5 July 2021 #

vincenzo: Moved as requested, and added a note. It's be swell if you then could add the relevant members to the new group :)

vincenzo - 16:25 5 July 2021 #

I will do it. Thanks Menace!

dad1916 - 10:49 9 July 2021 #
