Making New Packages
Starting with BounceX Viewer 2.0, you can now create new videos within the manager!
Simply drag and drop your files in! For videos, .mp4 is preferred, but in theory other formats should work! (.mov doesn't work on Linux for example, but probably works on other OSes.)
For Thumbnails, .jpg and .png work for sure, other formats are currently untested.
The first .bx file you insert into the field will be the default, with the others being selectable by the user later. The label indicates a name for the file. It's hidden if there is only 1 .bx file, but shown to the user when there are more than 1. If you have multiple .bx files, I HIGHLY recommend you set the label to the following:
Difficulty - Path Creator
For example, if I made a Hard path:
Hard - Alunacoz
- Video title, fairly self explanatory, it is the name that will be shown as the title of the video to the user. My suggestion is that if a video only contains 1 main song, then make that the title of the video, but if there's multiple songs give it any title.
- Folder Id, what the folder will be named on your computer. It automatically suggests one, but if you'd like to change it for any reason, you can.
- Video Creator, the source of the video. I'd also recommend linking to the source in the description.
- Path Creator, the creator of the .bx path. If you have multiple creators, prioritize whoever's path is the default.
- Video Type, optional, See the dropdown for options. Typically what the source video's main path source is. For most projects here, it'll be BounceX with converts from other script types falling into the other categories.
- Difficulty, optional, Subjective, but my rule of thumb is:
Easy = Warmup, very low depth and/or slow overall.
Medium = Normal, moderate speed, has full insertions but not many fast plunges (all the way in, all the way out)
Hard = Like normal but slightly faster and/or features sections of high intensity plunges
Extreme = Features extended sections of incredibly fast plunges
Multi-Difficulty = If you have multiple paths and they are different difficulties, I recommend selecting this one.
- Song Quantity, number of songs:
0 = No Song
1 = Single Song
2+ = Compilation
- BPM, optional, the BPM of the song. Doesn't actually affect anything but it's nice to know sometimes!
- Offset, optional, how many seconds to wait before starting the .bx path in SECONDS. You can use partial seconds (i.e 1.5 seconds)
The description allows you to write what you like, the only thing I'd like to note is that you can embed links like so:
[text](https://google.com)
would render as: text This allows you to link to creators' pages and any other links that you'd like to embed. It does NOT support full markdown.
Create any tags you feel are relevant, relating to the content of the video, songs it contains, etc. Highlighted tags let you pick up to 3 tasgs to be showcased on the index.html page.
And that's it! You've now created a new video. If you would like to share the video, zip up the folder generated with the Folder ID in this structure:
videos/your-folder
And it's packaged! You can include as many folders as you'd like in this part as long as it's that same structure:
videos/your-folder
videos/your-folder-2
Playlists currently do NOT have the same package creation tool. It will be coming shortly if you're reading this. You can either reverse engineer the example (it's not hard at all honestly) or wait until the update for the manager is created!
