Title: cRPG Music
Post by: Gnjus on June 20, 2012, 12:04:43 pm
We all saw that they added some mp3 files with one of the recent patches, mostly Justin Durban and few other things as well. My question is: would it be worth it if cRPG devs collected appropriate music (medieval, orchestral, game/movie soundtracks from medieval/historical movies & games, etc, everything that fits for Medieval Combat without Death Metal Crap, etc) from people with huge collections of it (like myself  :P) ? I mean yes, all of it would need to be actually downloaded like these few mp3 files into the Music folder which would rise in size and eat some disk space but do you think people would actually listen to this music if there would be like tons of it so its not repetitive at all ? There is literally thousands of quality music themes that would fit cRPG perfectly but this would be quite a big "project", the question is simple: would it be worth the trouble ?

Edit: just as i was typing this i listened to cRPG Music and that ambushed track reminds me of Neverwinter Nights (or some other game, i know for a fact that i have it somewhere) music so i recon using old games soundtracks shouldn't be a problem.  :wink:

I have all the music turned off anyway. Neutral.

This. I didn't even know they changed the music until people commented ingame about it.

Why not?

If you make a list of music, upload them, and mod it to fit cRPG I, for once, will download it.

Well, for a start, i was thinking something about this: I handpick the best of my collection, compress it and upload it somewhere, send a link to the Donkey himself on IRC (or someone else whom he believes enough to make decision about it) and then he decides if its fitting enough or not. If it makes it into the Music folder we can always expand it (trust me there is literally TONS of it) so it never becomes boring & repetitive. The only thing I'm not sure about is whether we can "spare" those who don't want this music (for example Momo hates me so much that I'm certain he wouldn't want to hear it just because I'm the source of it) of having to download it via cRPG downloader, since its not gonna be small.  :wink:

Your idea sounds good.

Well i recon that majority still wouldn't be interested in a thing like this, everyone can put their own music in the background so the effort would probably not be worth it.

I kinda think the same, i turned off all warband music (except sounds, e.g. cav) back in native as it was bloody irritiating, instead it got replaced by my itunes library music selection

I would love it if you took the time to make a good compilation!

A great reason for turning music back on.

I have the sounds turned off as well.

Too much screaming,dying,whistling and shouting for my taste.
Kinda frustrating not hearing the cav, but not as frustrating as that infernal noise. :)

Ok, I'll try to make a good combat compilation and post it here one of these days.  :wink:
