FfF: How did you get the samples to last more than a split second?

You gotta loop them. In BUZZ I've always had issues with looping back and forth, so I believe that it is looping from forward to back-forward to back.

I'm on a different PC right now...literally 850Km away from home right now.

 

[DopeyFish]

Quickly made, sorry for the late bump

edit: sorry it's really just a loop really So don't get all excited thinking it's a complete song

edit2: now in 4 voices! yay

 

[JRPereira]

Very nice racing theme indeed. Definately a keeper.

 

[acidviper]

clean up the bass and it would kick ass

 

[Timedog]

i think this has way too much polyphony to be a real NES theme song.

 

[DopeyFish]

i dunno what the polyphony should be, but it's consistently at 8-10 notes at any given time during the hectic part across all instruments including drums :/

edit: oh crap, it's snes with 8 voices, NES only has 4 oops *runs away*

Yeah it's 4. I used up to 8 or so, I'm not sure because I used a delay machine rather than retrack it on a seperate track, which is what was done back in the day to simulate delay.

Looks like this is going to be the first retail game I'm going to buy in years. Off to the nearest Best Buy...

How does something like this even happen??

 

[$200]

Damn, bumping an eight year old thread? I didn't even think it was possible.

 

[jtb]

hahaha random bump...

Well that explains why the link didn't work.

 

[Angry Grimace]

This is an incredible feat of the darkest arte of thread necromancy

I can see how someone might search for this thread and bump it, but accidentally replynig to this thread instead of another thread?

That's just crazy. I suspect the forum may have glitched.

PS I miss FightyF, dude had mad taste in tunes.

 

[MThanded]

Id love to know how this happened. Poster probably doesn't even know they posted in this thread.

 

[CoffeeJanitor]

I was 14 back when this thread was in its heyday

What a story

 

[Speevy]

Damn it Shearie.

 

[Suen]

Skimmed through most of the thread thinking it was recently created lol.

I love this post.

 

[newsguy]

So I'm at Soldier's field and I'm

Spoiler

watching the Duke and dimwit live action stage show. I tap the trigger since there's kids around and SHOT DUKE IN THE STOMACH.

I laughed amd immediately felt awful all at once.

I love seeing all the weird sites people used to have to use for file uploads.

out of interest what the hell are you talking about?

 

[GulAtiCa]

Wow. I was 19 (almost 20) when this thread got made. I'm now 27.

 

[whitehawk]

I want to listen to the songs in the OP now.

 

[GuitarAtomik]

Wow. I was 19 (almost 20) when this thread got made. I'm now 27.

The Xbox 360 was still about a week from releasing when this thread was created. Think about that.

FightyF Dopeyfish Teckno, these are old names. Music guys.

 

[Orbis]

The Xbox 360 was still about a week from releasing when this thread was created. Think about that.

Also, Youtube was launched the same month this topic appeared. I'm kinda hoping that this forum remains in its current form in 25 years or something, so I can spend 95% of my time feeling all nostalgic when people continuously bump pre-robot uprising threads.

This thread was created in a Web 1.0 world

 

[SteveWinwood]

I'm pretty sure here is a link to the song if anyone actually wants to listen to what the op came up with 8 YEARS AGO

http://www.soundclick.com/bands/default.cfm?bandID=102360

And he's still active on myspace apparently...

 

[Dragoon En Regalia]

Music ain't half-bad; this thread's the true treasure

 

[SonicMegaDrive]

What's really sad is that I remember this thread, and when it first popped up, I just clicked it like it was nothing.

I've spent too much time on GAF over the years.

Even more amazing than the bump.

 

[bidguy]

1999 mode was easier than I expected. I thought you have to restart the whole game upon losing all your cash but that wasn't the case.

Hardest game for me was Halo 4 legendary with all skulls on lol

 

[Gorechylde]

Got an idea. Everyone make the NES Race Song your ring tone and rock it til we find this guy IRL. I wonder if he will remember his creation...

 

[raebodep]

Here is a zip of the wav samples I used. They were taken from a MOD file of some guy who did NES-ish music (did a bunch of Castlevania inspired tracks, I loved it).

NES samples (in wav format)

I'm thinking that if we want a "music contest" thread, we should probably go with these samples. Then again I think we've tried one before and there wasn't much interest.

link dead.

Edit: wow this is from 2005.

What the..i'm scared.

 

[disappeared]

I can;t stop laughing.

 

[Aaron Strife]

At first i was gonna be like "hey, the link doesn't work" and then i was like... oh... what the fuck?

 

[830920]

What's up with the Bioshock related replies in this thread?

 

[Shiny Llama]

Is NeoGAF collapsing around us? Is this thread somehow linked to one of the Bioshock threads? WILL THESE QUESTIONS EVER BE ANSWERED?

 

[Acorn]

Elizabeth what have you done!

 

[GrizzNKev]

Elizabeth opened a tear to 2005, apparently.

 

[disappeared]

It's a tear. Gotta be.

There's another gaf, and another FightyF

 

[RumblingRosco]

I'm so excited to see this classic thread bumped.
