'Ey, guys. It's been a while since I've forum-posted, so I figure I'll do so. I'm posting at the end of a late night of music speed-writing. I was a dope, and accidentally saved over the original of the former ABI Interior ambient track, so I had to redo it from scratch, and it is now the ABI Lab ambient track. I made a subfolder on my site to house recently completed .oggs, which now includes ABI Lab ambient intro, ambient loop, battle loop; ABI Ruins ambient intro, and ambient loop. http://www.livingstonian.com/music/TNM/

Bam!
Brian, you should probably download version 1.1.0 of the alpha, it's the latest build:
tnm.offtopicproductions.com/teamftp/ALPHA/The Nameless Mod ALPHA 1.1.0.exe (paste it into your address bar)
It doesn't have the DXI maps though (in fact it stops 1 mission before you get to DXI), but you can download those here:
http://tnm.offtopicproductions.com/team ... _02_05.rar
Bear in mind there are more maps in that rar than there will be eventually though. The plan is to merge some of these maps so there will be 3 maps like the Audio thread says.

That Ruins track (the track formerly known as Mandible) is without a doubt the best ambient track you've made thus far. The Lab track is exciting and has a great melody, but the Ruins track just stays in the background, creating this sinister, dark atmosphere which is perfect for the ruins. Now you just need to make the last three tracks for the Ruins, and then the entire score for the ABI mission is done
You are the man!

Heads up: It takes 15 seconds from the player dies until a map with our spinning logo and our theme song is loaded. This means all death tracks should be 15 seconds of length and can be given a clear beginning and end with no worries about looping it.
Any death tracks we already have which are longer than 15 seconds can stay. If you guys really feel like it, you can make 15-second versions out of them and just leave the full versions on the FTP for the soundtrack CD.

I don't think so, because I've already assigned all of the Forum City maps to him, which was why he went "woah" in his first post in this thread

The RMS Scale
This is not my idea, it appears on the book "Audio for Games" by Alexander Brandon, and according to him was suggested by Todd Simmons (Sound Designer for Ion Storm) while they were working on DX: Invisible War.
The idea behind setting an RMS scale (or volume scale or whatever you wanna call it) is to achive consitency in the dynamic range through the game.
ie: we set the voice to be normalized between -13 db to -6 db.
This will be our loudest audio content.
Then we set the levels for the SFX between -18 to -13 db , and finally we use -25 to -18 db RMS for the music.
Why RMS and not peak normalization? because RMS averages the response of the meter, in other words it meters closer to how we hear.
You can do this in soundforge or with any brickwall limiter before an rms meter. Just shoot for the ranges mentioned above.
I hope I've been helpful.

okay guys, listen up. Previously, the music was spread all over the damn FTP. Trestkon and I finally had enough of this, and so we decided to centralize it. From now on, we ask you to please upload all your finished ogg files to your own folder in this directory:
teamFTP/PACKAGES/Music/
The naming scheme is easy and will make it a lot easier for the rest of us to get a quick overview of the tracks. It goes like so:
Level_(Map_)Event
Examples:
DXI_MCR_Ambient
ABI_Ruins_Combat
If your assigned map doesn't really have a subsection (like ABI or DXI where several parts make up a whole level), just leave that part out like so:
Weaponshop_Ambient.ogg
Remember only completed tracks go here. To back up your work in progress, please use your own folder in the teamFTP directory. Thanks a lot in advance. You're doing a great job guys, I just wish you could all do it a bit faster

Hey all, I am in search of a good free wav to ogg file converter. I am using Cwenc right now which is all right but there is to much data lose which affects my loop points. I remixed all my tunes and converted to ogg files, now the loop points totally suck. Can some of you down load my tunes from the server and have a listen, maybe mu ogg player just sucks. Pleas advise! Thanks.
