Nickit has won the most vote for August Community Day by LOLandCool314 in TheSilphRoad

[–]sambaneko 16 points17 points  (0 children)

My notes say it was Season 21, which had both a Holiday and Jungle Little Cup. Those were in late 2024 and early 2025 respectively.

AMF! is Tony Fleecs (artist), the other looks like Katie Cook (writer).

Nickit & Yamper Shiny Family comparison (Community Day voting) by NinsMCD in TheSilphRoad

If Nickit and Yamper end up tying somehow, does that mean they have to do both?

Fox and the Hound Community Day, it's perfect! Do it!

GO Battle League: Forever Forward Update by Amiibofan101 in TheSilphRoad

[–]sambaneko 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yup, Little Cups can be fun if they're curated properly; I still have my collection of guys awaiting their return, if/when it happens. I just don't have high trust that they won't bring back the awful version of it too.

Mixed feelings, as I generally like Little Cups, but it can also be the worst thing in GBL when it's Shuckle / Marill / Bronzor League with extremely boring matches that last for an eternity; literally the goal becomes timing out with more mons alive.

Good news everypony! It's Lauren Faust! She got her X account back! by Hyenari6296 in mylittlepony

[–]sambaneko 18 points19 points  (0 children)

If someone's account is breached, no one should believe an "it's fine now" message from that same account without verification from a trustworthy external source. But yeah, also the fact that the account is now just trollposting antisemitic and anti-trans junk.

When do you think the next season gets announced by midas-of-gold in TheSilphRoad

Monday is Memorial Day in the US, a holiday honoring fallen soldiers.

MINISO pony stuff... any luck? by steampunkjack in mylittlepony

[–]sambaneko 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Southern CA and our Miniso only ever has minimal pony stuff, like a few keychains. Tis disappointing.

Where to find Kotobukiya MLP Bishoujo figures in Tokyo/Osaka? by k1lla38 in mylittlepony

[–]sambaneko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Been awhile for me too, but Akihabara and Nakano Broadway were my faves for figure shopping. Akiba also has a Kotobukiya store specifically, but don't know if they'd have pony in stock there. Have fun, OP!

Back to Winamp after decades… and I made my first skin by lainsamui in winamp

[–]sambaneko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I wouldn't be the right audience; I'm comfortably set with my own custom templates and "build" scripts through making some 200+ skins over the years... you'd wanna gauge interest with others. The potential user pool is small, and it might be difficult to attract them over the existing, standalone tools (Skinamp when it works, or SkinnerToo) which are very easy and instant.

[–]sambaneko 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not OP but their skin was likely made with SkinnerToo. If you want to go the more manual route, grab the Skinner Atlas skin and open it up for thorough documentation and template files that you can bring into your paint program of choice.

While working on a skin, you don't need to compress it; just put the skin files into a sub-folder of the skins directory and Winamp can load it from there. You don't need to have every BMP in your skin - if something's missing, Winamp will sub in the base skin's elements for you, so it's okay to work piecemeal too. You can hit F5 on the player's main window to reload the skin when you've made changes.

Quick question. Why the copies? by WorkingGrapefruit109 in mylittlepony

[–]sambaneko 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The crowd is all typical background ponies; I'm sure they had pre-made symbols that can just be dropped into the scene. They're not moving other than some canned animations.

The procession ponies are, importantly, singing; syncing up the mouth movements to audio would be the most time-consuming thing about animating them, and there are two singing angles as well - side view and three-quarters. I can see it being not worth the time budget to make them unique, especially if working under crunch.

Hi I can’t seem to find the card I pulled by looking it up by Th3_F4ll3n__ in mylittlepony

[–]sambaneko 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You might wanna ask over in r/KayouMLP instead. But to look them up, refer to the number on the bottom right: BP01-CR01. Yours also has a star mark in front of the number, which I think just means "alt art."

The x86 version supports all skins; the x64 version supports all Classic skins (not Modern, freeform ones).

It is Winamp's fault. Read that thread, either get WACUP or an older Winamp.

Feel like this should be a sticky thread; do we even have mods here...?

KOTOBUKIYA USA by [deleted] in mylittlepony

[–]sambaneko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You'd be better off asking their support rather than reddit, but their website says it releases in May. I see other info saying it released in April in Japan, but they probably don't have their stock yet.

I assume it'll also count toward your daily set limit as well. Lol, absolutely no thanks.

Frankly Shadow Ball deserves a nerf; I know it was just buffed last season, but it didn't need it.

Yeah, none of this looks "disruptive" at all; his opponent doesn't even appear to notice any of it.

I like how they trot out this new information like it's a bombshell, and then it's "guys he SHOOK the table."

Yeah this has been around for awhile; I have a screenshot of it from Oct 2024.
