idea.gif (8504 bytes) What is F* Party?

F* Party is an annual reunion of people who loves computing, computers, videogames and, mainly, the demoscene. As other spanish parties, the only thing we want to achieve is to give a place to allow every scener, or everyone who wants to come, to get reunited interchanging ideas, showing their own works and knowing new people, as well as giving the opportunity of competing in what every one know to do, everything within a friendly and very very computer related atmosphere.

This year we want to go farther in the organization. Up to now, F* Party had been almost a familiar reunion, but this year we want to obtain a much bigger place: Xirivella's sport facilities, near Valencia, at the same city where it was held last year. In addition, this year we will also try to find sponsors to help to cover party costs, so compos, as first time in F* Party history will have a starring place, with cash prices.

We await to be able to provide space for 150 computers, but, at least there will be space for 50 computers. For having the security of a place for your computer you will have to ask for your entrance with time enough. For that, there will be soon an option with all the details to enter the entrance cost and the instructions to get your place.

The party will be held 1-2 April, being allowed to sleep at the party place (but... who wants to sleep???).
The place will be, unless last time changes, Xirivella's sport facilities ("Polideportivo Municipal de Xirivella"), near Valencia. Soon here will be available a map with the route to be followed.

The recinct will have douches, and we'll try to help in the obtaining of food and drinks for everyone.
 

rules.gif (18492 bytes) Rules and compos (temporary)

These compos aren't definitive, as they aren't each one rules. The compo's computer isn't decided yet.

As first approach we have though in the following compos:

  • Demo compo: It will be valid any operating system, and using accel cards will be allowed. Maximum size, by now, is 8 Mb.

    Module compo: Without channel limit (4-64), it will be allowed the all well-known file formats: MOD, S3M, XM, IT, MTM... The player will be the tracker used for doing each module, unless said otherwise by the author. Maximum size of the file will be 2Mb. Of course, if it's used a harder fileformat, or less resources, it will be positively valued.

    2D/3D graphics compo: By now, there won't be any distinction between both kinds. If we have money enough for prices, there will be held two different compos for each style. Fileformat is free, as well as the technique used. There will be needed FOUR previous screenshots before the graphic finish, to autenticate the author.

    Intro compo: 4kb and 64kb. Valued by difficulty, as well.

    AI compo: No information available by now...

    FAST compos:

    • Videogame programming compo: Sunday there will be given the rules for creating a videogame all over the day. At the end of the party all of them will be tested and the best will win.

    • Fast AI.

    • Fast graphics.

    • Fast music.

    • Fast hacking (still unsure).

dilemna.gif (6591 bytes) Instalations

The party ORG will try to obtain a video-wall for the demo and graphic reproduction, as well as the projection of many other videos all over the party.

The recinct will allow place for at least 50 computers, but we will try to give support for up to 150. All who want to come with their computer, will be allowed, by making the reservation of the adequate place in the party, otherwise we can't assure that there will be a place for its installation.

There will be tables, chairs and plugs for every computer. Furthermore, it will be installed wire enough to connect all the computers to the net. In addtion, for those who come without a net card, they will be sold some basic cards for the conection. The net, as minimum, will be a LAN and, if we can obtain a provider, it will be a line with the outside.

    Without reservation:

cleaning.gif (11374 bytes) Party cleaning

As we will be many who will be there, together, a whole weekend, we ask, at least, to be responsible when maintaining the recint clean. We will try to ensure a minimum cleaning service.

As well, we also expect everyone to be responsible when acting. The sport facilities are out of the city, so there won't be any volume limit at any time, but we expect there not to be any kind of trouble. However, there will be a small security corp to ensure there won't happen anything and to protect the computers.
