Title: Yet another attempt by nuclear1 to get attention
Post by: Nuclear1 on June 07, 2003, 02:26:40 pm: Anyway, on the real topic. While managing my SA and Inferno time, I'm working on a campaign of my own, Darkness Rising. That's not the real concern.

There is going to be music, and here (http://www.swooh.com/peon/Nuclear1/blah.mp3) is a sample of it.

Flame/comment.

Did you mix it yourself? (And the track seems to be an extra minute long, I got nothing past 1:05 )

also, kinda repetitive. and indeed, the last minute is empty.

Crappy editing by me, I guess. Anyway, Dark gets the cookie. It's Futile Escape from Aliens.

Oh, just checked. Apparently, I set the finish marker at 1:05, but forgot to delete the rest. Anyway, anything beyond that is sorta the same.

Post by: Dark_4ce on June 07, 2003, 03:49:27 pm: You know, if you're going to use Aliens music, I suggest also trying out the one called "Going after Newt"! It has a great start and then calms down but always has this tempo of urgency, perfect for a Spy mission on the Shivans, or a large assault and waiting for something to happen. I also got a whole list of movie music I was going to use in an now defunct campaign.

Basically anything from Aliens is good. Danny Elfman's Planet of the Apes "main Title" theme is excelent for a shivan onslaught mission, cause it has this alien raspy drum thing going which I love and then it goes all hectic, perfect for heat of battle. And if you want to go for that 80's cliché action hero B-sci-fi movie appeal to teens feel, I suggest Megadeth's "99 ways to die". Great song, but damn funny when used in a freespace mission. :D

Orff's "Mars" is pritty good, if not used alot.

Post by: Nuclear1 on June 07, 2003, 03:53:54 pm: Going After Newt? Oh, yeah. That's my third fave on this one (next to Bishop's Countdown and Futile Escape). That would be good for special ops missions.
