In-Game Achievements

Would it be at all possible to code achievements into FOF? Like, if you beat a certain song, or a tier in a pack, you get an achievement, like in the XBOX 360? that would be awesome!

I'd like something like downloadable achievement packs. So I could create "Kotti's Achievement Pack 01" with maybe 20 different achievements and release that in a similar was as a song pack. Or you could add something to song.ini and have one achievement for each song you make.

i already knew that :p

i meant like in game instead of just relying on a chart, it just tells you and you can go to a certain place in the game and see your achievements.

I think I've posted this before. I'd really love to see it in-game. It'd be really awesome if people could tie achievements to songs or something.

Most people just said people would cheat (why would you bother, its only for your own entertainment) and that Divra's charts were good enough.

but no one can get on Divras charts, can they? i can't.


Well, here I am, replying to a 9 month old topic in hopes that somebody will read it... so is it at all possible? It would be nice to have.

Here's what I'm thinking for the song.ini to have certain achievments:

song_fc = achievement_20_(Master Shredder)

Or something along those lines.

Dude, I would love to see this. I think its an awesome freakin idea!!! *settles down and regains composure*

Phew, thought I was gonna start hyperventilating there for a sec...

I think it would be a great idea! One of my ideas would to be get achievements to play diferent songs.
And you get points to unlock songs like say a song needed 20 points and you had 25. You would unlock the song and have 5 points left.

Yeah it would be cool for careers. Idk about quickplay but in career it'd be awesome.

I think this would be an amazing feature to add to the game. I wouldn't say make it too serious/in depth (such as using scores to 'buy' songs and such)..

But.. Simply allowing users to add an achievement to a song/songpack (not sure how many, I'm assuming there would be a limit) seems like it'd be neat. Of course, give each achievement a name and description and a point value. And it'd be even cooler if you could have an option in the menu to view your progress.

Something like:
Total Ach. Points:
Total Achievements Earned:
(maybe make it more detailed, and show it as something like ## out of a possible ## or so?)
Then simply display a list of the ones earned.. Possibly even display a list of all of the achievements possible in your library, and then fade out the ones that you haven't yet done.

Seems like it could be a lot of fun, and certainly throw something new to the game. I think I'd enjoy creating achievements/adding them to my charts just as much as I would unlocking other achievements =D.

I would strongly suggest putting some sort of limit on what people can add... Maybe some standards of some sort? It'd be sort of lame downloading a song and finding an achievement like "Hit one note - 100000000 points" =\

I made this topic a while ago, the second idea in here is a possibility to include the awards in a career pack. Is that the way you want to go?

What you do is create a server similar to the Scoreboard and it downloads songs from the "Ingame Shop". You Get Money and buy songs!
