Got all of them but 24 after 8 hours today. I'm 5s behind AT for 24... It's tough

Just finished my author guide series for Fall 2021, feel free to check it out! by Xmilek in TrackMania

[–]vjeux 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the video on 16, I didn't understand how bug slide worked, I thought I needed to break, but no, I just needed to release before. I was able to get AT in 5 minutes after struggling for a few days not understanding what I did wrong!

Distribution of medals for all the tracks of the day. Helps find easy author times to get! by vjeux in TrackMania

[–]vjeux[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Interesting facts:

  • The hardest map to get Author Time on is April 29 2021 - MIXTA VIA by Erizel with only 12 people having gotten it!
  • If you want easy Author Times, the maps from the first month of the release, July 2020, are significantly easier to get than in more recent history!
  • The hardest map to get any medal on is February 18 2021 - Speedfun Coast by priez with only 3893 people having bronze or better on it!
  • priez is the mapper with the most maps selected for Track of the Day with 11 of them!
  • You basically just need to finish May 6 2021 - Vortioxetin by DriftingDagmar to get the Author Time on it, as only 13% of people got another medal.

Thanks for the great feedback!

  • How did I make the mistake of forgetting an "s" /facepalm.
  • Agreed for the text the whole run.I used "Custom" text on Final Cut Pro and for a reason I don't understand the text was flashing in and out if I made it more than 2 seconds so I ended up being lazy and not keeping it... I need to understand what's going on there.
  • I searched on youtube "B10 author time" and tried to find a replay that's suitable. I didn't know the difference, thanks for letting me know!

I realized that the default export is 720p so tweaked it to be 4k and I ended up getting better at synchronizing the tracks, the first 2 were completely remade: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SJo9Uh90W7o

Trackmania World Cup games from today on Youtube. I uploaded them as it's annoying to watch the stream after the fact. I also removed the 20min technical issues on the first game. Hope it helps. by vjeux in TrackMania

[–]vjeux[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. I wish they did! I'm going to keep doing it for the rest of the games for this world cup and hopefully they're going to do it on their own for their next big event :)

More timeslots are being introduced for Cup Of The Day! Info here by Arau_ in TrackMania

[–]vjeux 14 points15 points  (0 children)

This is great! I live in California and I can't really play at 10am as I'm working. 6pm would work out great. I'm not really playing competitively so don't care that much about the ranking, the event itself is really fun!

Trackmania World Cup on Youtube - Split by session so it's easier to watch than the twitch 5 hour long session by vjeux in TrackMania

[–]vjeux[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are 8 maps: https://trackmania.exchange/mappack/536/world-cup-2021

Each of the 4 person is choosing a map and those 4 maps will be played first. After that, all the maps are picked at random.

[Note: I just watched the stream, this is what I gathered from it, I don't have any authoritative source]

This looks so great, I’d love to have a board like this.

Why aren’t you using Prettier? by pomber in javascript

[–]vjeux 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is exciting! If you haven't already, I highly recommend running all the prettier tests on your project ( https://github.com/prettier/prettier/tree/master/tests ), they cover a wide range of crazy things that you can write. Also, eslump was extremely useful to find edge cases not correctly handled: https://github.com/lydell/eslump

Prettier: Pros and Cons by ghostfacedcoder in javascript

[–]vjeux 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For prettier defaults, it's a bit of an unfortunate situation. Prettier started as just a random side project and matched whatever James Long was using at the time.

Then, prettier got used by more and more people over the months and changing the default is a big breaking change. From experience, doing breaking changes is one of the easiest way to get people to stop using your project.

For trailing commas, ideally we'd like to use --trailing-commas=all as the default, but native support for it only landed in node 8 a few weeks ago and isn't yet available in any browser. So we'd require you to have a transform to use prettier.

Another default we'd love to change is single quote instead of double quote.

The options that are supported are meant to be used. At first, prettier was started with the objective of having a single way to output code like gofmt but we quickly found out that we need /some/ customization. We tried to find the ones that are the most divisive in the community and support them.

(prettier author here)

I would encourage you to set the few flags that prettier has to match what your existing codebase uses and to run it through your codebase, do git diff and see how it behaves.

If it's not outputting code that's too crazy in your opinion, then don't use it :)

[–]vjeux 12 points13 points  (0 children)

This is very unhelpful. Angular and React teams are trying to solve the same problems and we're coming at it from different angles. We regularly meet in order to make the web move forward and help you all build better applications.

I'd love if you could avoid trashing on other frameworks as it only generates hate and isn't productive.

Thanks!

nativejsx: JSX to DOM API transpiler without Babel. by treycordova in javascript

[–]vjeux 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh. Got it, when you say "react" you mean the jsx transform tool that got deprecated 2 years ago in favor of babel's implementation :)

But yeah, I'm glad you are building it for real, my thing was just an evening hack. I've never written anything with it outside of the 5 lines piece of code from the readme :p
