Perhaps "Planet Lost", when enemy invades your planet?

Great! Fits exactly the feel of the Event. the alarm, some shooting, and the dramatic music. I've just looked through the list of Random Events and found many occurrences of enemy invasion. Maybe I should make a few more different ones? :shifty: . Anyway, I have to make many more to complement the list. But before, I guess I will have to complete the Empire window screens.

Thanks vjeko1701, my friend!

It's coming soon, friend! Now I am updating a list of all the songs I have done since I'm here. If I'm counting well, with all the big and small and sound effects, that makes 28. I still have much more to do but if I'm updating like this it is because I want to know what is and what is not classified yet.
I will then complete the Empire collection. :klingon: :romulan: :cardassian: :jem: :mrgreen:
We still have a few that we did not yet decide (temporarily that is) where to put them and I would like to finish classifying those other ones so that I know what to do next . I'll be back with this a little later. :smile:

EDIT: I forgot 2 more in my counting, so that's 30!

Event-12_2m00_Gino Véziau.WAV - hmm, perhaps a Romulan science window.

Theme Sng_3m02_Gino Véziau_2.WAV Romulan colony window

Great stuff as usual, I would like to help you but I have the same problem with sharepoint when trying to upload anything bigger than 10-15mb.


I agree with the use of Event-12 for Romulan Science Window. Sng_3m02 for a Colony / System window is also a good choice but I might go with the Cardassians on that one.

The upload on Sng_3m02 is timing out on me . I will try later from work.

And so it is almost settled. Updated in my list. Sng_3.02 is on the hold for Mike about Romulan or Cardassian. And Science or Colony. I will make short 30 seconds versions for the fast ones :smile: later, when I completed the window themes.

Glad you're back home Kenneth_of_borg! And to the big Hose Internet at work!

I'm updating the list now.
Good day!And thank you again!

Ok So let's see now.

We have Cardassian Theme, Colony or System, Science and Espionage.
We are missing Colony or System, which ever we choose.
For Romulans, we have 2 Theme songs(?), a Colony or System (dependig on the choice again) and Science.
Espionage and Diplomacy are missing and the same goes for what we choose to do up here.
Klingons has Science and Diplomacy.
Espionage, System and a Theme are needed here for Klingons.
Dominion is equipped with a Diplomacy song only. Everything else is needed. I'll be working on that soon.
What about Federation? Do we keep all the themes that are already there? I guess so since the game is already done up to that point.
We have a few Mood musics, events are not urging for now.

I'd like to know where you would classify the other songs in SharePoint so that I know what I still have to do.
Are we going to use them? For what?
I'll put it in my list and move on for what is missing. Can someone verify this please? Thank you!

Looks like I still got to move my "pompom" if we wish to complete the collection for Mike or Matress_of_evil.

You did a great work on choosing the themes! Thanks!

See you later friends!
Happytrek

I think we should keep at least some of the music created for the game by prior composers. As the current head musician for Supremacy it would best that you chose. You seam to have a grasp on what is needed where at this point.

Thank you Kenneth_of_borg!

At this time, I'm asking around because I wasn't there when those ones were made. Someone may see a special use for them. For me, since it's not the same keyboard, therefore not the same sound, and not the same mood, I wouldn't be inclined to mix them to mine. But, with respect for those who did them and because they're nice songs, I feel we should try to implement them somewhere, at least check if we could fit them somewhere. I listened to some and I couldn't make my mind as to where they would go because they're different from what I do.
Anyway, It was just to check around if someone has need for them or sees them in a section of the game.
If one feels it should go in one of the scenes, then we'll leave them there.
I think Mike would like to keep the same feel for the same game.

In another subject, can you modify something in the SharePoint library? I mean add a new column or subject like the length of the songs? I tried but there's no mention anywhere about creating a time chart for the songs. Maybe someone knows how to do it. I think I should ask by sending a General PM over the forum.
Since they're not zipped or compressed, we should at least be able to see how long is a music since it can play them directly in the browser. Like in the Windows Media, where you can add columns for different sub subject like Composer, Length, and so on..
It would help because I wouldn't have to add them to the title, which makes it long for no great deal, to my opinion.
Should I ask around by sending this General PM?

I know this message is long and I'm sorry but to me it has a certain importance.

Well, back to work now for me!
Happytrek

I'm trying on this one. New song: Cardassian Espionage_37s_GinoVéziau in Encounters and Events. A short version. The Full one is coming soon.


EDIT: Ok! You'll have both version now on SharePoint. This last one is Cardassian Espionage_1m28_Gino Véziau

Good day!

That is a very good as the Cardassian Espionage.

I was able to upload Theme_Sng_3m02. It is in the Encounters and Events folder. Do you want me to put it in the Romulan folder instead?

There should be a little time soon to look at the music in the Federation folder. I will let you know what I think.

OK, I took a listen to the Federation folder. It is clear that the music there was not suited for our current understanding of the game windows. I moved everything into other folders like Encounters, General Game or Combat.

The Federation folder is wide open for you to compose the windows as you see fit.

Do you want me to move the other music we have marked for major races to their folders?

Thank you Kenneth_of_borg!

It would be a good thing, yes. If you already moved them to where they belong, thank you! We will have to send a word to Mike about this change so that he knows where to look if he needs it.

Some of them sound really nice, although not fit for what I'm doing right now.

We were not sure about Theme_Sng_3_02. Does it fit more for the Romulans? If so, In what section? I ask because if we find it fit for one or the other, we will have to add it in the Title and I will then update my list once again.
We have a song (Hidden Fear) that we did not decide yet where to put it. It was a choice to make between Cardassian Espionage or Wonder. But I guess we could as well find another place or another Race since this last one looks more appropriate. If you happen to re-listen to it, you or vjeko1701 (you both are the Race experts :winkthumb: ), then we will transfer it to it's new location. Agree?
Since you look like you're the only one who can switch the files here and there, then I guess you will be assigned for this task, if you wish, or have the time. Thank you Kenneth_of_borg!
It is not my intention at all to tell you or anyone what to do. No way! But someone who can has to do it and since we can't, me and vjeko1701, you are our first choice!
Ok, now I think this message is long enough. I will continue later in another one.
Good day to you all!
Happytrek

Do not panic. I moved a lot of songs around on SharePoint.

Looking at what we had and how it was not organized I knew Mike would not find things. I want to play the new version he is working on before I die.

So he can find things and see our suggestions I modified some file names to include our suggested use. I also moved things to the correct folders. We had a lot of the Cardassian music in the encounter and events folder.

There is no secret to moving files. I download, re-upload to the new location and delete the old file. It takes a long time. It would be easier to place them and name them as we go rather than going back later.

I did not delete the recycle bin so if you think something is lost just go there and restore the file.

Thank you very much Kenneth_of_borg!
I went to upload a song in the Federation and I saw that everything was gone. You worked pretty hard there I see. :clap:
I uploaded a new song in the Federation Folder. It's only a test, and if we do not find a place for this one, I'll simply delete it. I would like to have your opinion on this one, all of you, and tell me if it's useful for the Federation.

I'll be back later. For now, I'm going to sleep! (Someone should put a sleep icon there. Which Race could be a sleepy one? :smile:)
Good day everyone!

I think that it would be better for diplomatic screen, it has a more ceremonial feel to it.

Thank you my friends! I appreciate your Good choice!
Ok! So Diplomacy it will be. I will add one minute more to that one and make a short 30 seconds version.

For Colony Kenneth_of_borg, I will think of something just a little bit slower and softer than this. Less "Official like" but more axed on relaxation. Like that serenity we feel when we are at Home, that sense of security. Less horns or softer ones, then some discrete voices, and violins. And drums, of course.

Would make sense, wouldn't it? After all, we are at home! Let's take that uniform out! At least for a certain time! :smile:

Well industrious and triumphant in our new exploit might be more along the lines of how the Fed colonist in the Star Trek Universe would feel. Serenity is too understated for a new colony in my opinion. I am thinking bold and the rapid upbeat passages from Rhapsody in Blue as an example of the feeling.

Looking over SharePoint it appears that at this time we need:
Dominion Espionage, Systems and encounter, Cardassian Science, Romulan Espionage and Map and Federation Espionage, Systems, Science, Map and encounter.

As I was moving files around on SharePoint I notice that this song has a very BOTF sound to it. Does anyone think we could use it for one of the windows? What about map for the Romulan or even the Federation?

:borg:


Well, I guess you're right by the way you state it. I thought of Serenity as Full of Confidence for the present and the future, not as Slowing down the music(I wrote A Little Bit). I agree that it should not be slowed down to the point that we feel like sleeping :naughty: , but I was thinking of a different, non aggressive music style, not like the presentation screen or the Diplomatic where it should be uplifting and triumphant, bold and proud.
My first thought was to make it like you mentioned, industrious and optimistic, but, keeping in mind that it is also a screen where we experiment by building and that success is a question mark in this situation which, to me feels like a bit less bold. Not so much or we'll get depressive :confused: :smile:

To better "illustrate" what I mean, I will make short essay and show it here before I finalize the whole song.

But anyway, I'm sure that, since we know each other, we've always been "connected" all together as for choosing and agreeing.
I'm back soon.
Happytrek

To me it sounds quite nice, but like a bit of everything in Star Trek Universe, it could fit with the Romulans, but I think it should be more constant in the lower parts. It has this "almost hiding" soft music of Espionage, the big Horn sound for the Presentation part, the mezzo part for the Science. But it's a good Inspiration for creating some themes. Or take some parts of it for the Events.
My humble opinion!

Looking forward to what you do with the Federation Colony / Systems song in any event. That old one is also in MP3 so we can do better there in any event.

There's another song in SharePoint. Federation Theme 02.

I know I wrote that I would try to illustrate what I was explaining in the message before but I think this last one is another inspiration I had after writing the last message, therefore not the "illustration" I thought of showing you. Sorry. :redface: I will work that out later.
This last song has a bit of every Race in it. As if it was a reminder of the enemies one will to encounter in the game. Near the end, you will hear the Events "untied" (sort of mad violins) and the Finale.

Hope you like it!
Good listening!
Happytrek

That is nice music. :thumbsup:
I can hear myself working on the systems with that playing in the background. I guess a more exotic sound would fit better with the Romulans so Federation Systems / Colony would be my choice.
That is what you had in mind?

Yes, now that you mention it, Federation/Systems is a good choice. I thought at first that it could fit in a Map scene but Systems is good.

So Federation/Systems it is then. :smile:

Thank you! Glad you like it. I will be adding a minute to the first one I made. Federation Test_Diplomacy. And then we should take the 'Test' name out and put "Why does my pen not write anymore when I'm busy" :lol:
Of course, it's a joke! What I really had in mind was "Three Medals" for the_Test.
And for the second one(Federation Theme_02), it could be "Father's Wing". Putting a name is not really important but if we make a compilation of the songs later (to put on a CD or else), it would be useful to have a name for each one.

Ok! I'm back to work again :drool: !
Good day!
