Combs Faceoff Pic

[Matteo]

Wow Todd, the faceoff podium looks great! I can't wait for the finished result of the Challenge. Thanks for putting up the pics!

I plan to have more as I make more progress. Most of these pics will not be the actual game in progress for right now. After finishing the graphic work and programming Bullseye, there's nothing much else to do. It's already been done in the first Family Feud Presentation software!

[Matteo]

YES!!!! . It might be out quicker than I thought!

Todd,

Will the presentation software for the CBS version actually feature new pics not featured in the presentation software for the ABC version? I'm not talking about the set, which I know is going to be different. I'm talking about camera shots.

Jeff,

Are you trying to make me let the worms out of the can already? Okay, here goes:

Yes, in addition to the edited graphics from the '76 version, there will be new graphics added to the existing format. Do I care to mention which ones? Well...

I'm adding the family name signs for absolute sure, complete with flashing lights. As for other graphics, I haven't decided what needs to be added yet.

If anyone has any graphics they think would be a nice touch to the software, please post your thoughts and feelings in the Family Feud Challenge discussion forum.

Todd,

Now that I know that the family name signs will be included in the CBS version, are you thinking about updating the ABC version to add the family name signs there as well? I will, of course, let you release the CBS version first.

Right now I'm pretty happy with the way the '76 Feud is. The only other update I have planned for it right now is to correct another bug that doesn't award a win if a family scores two points above the total required to win. I also have a graphic glitch to fix. Actually I've had it ready for a while now, I just haven't uploaded it yet.

I haven't decided how to do the opening for Family Feud Challenge and I really don't want to have the family signs/frame as part of it. The only time I was thinking of using the family signs is to review scores from Bullseye.
