And indeed, this voting result does indicate that we have a quality problem. I
do think that the previous polls contained more good quality music.

However, do consider the fact that commercial sample banks usually
cannot be used to make GPL compatible music. All you really have, is your own
recordings, synths, and stuff where you explicitly have a license to do this.
However, the trick is to configure the synths right... and that is absolutely
not easy. Also unfa's and Rage's comments about mastering apply. You cannot
compare this to e.g. CC music, which can use commercial sample banks without
any problems.

I'm damn happy to hear it Big Grin Cos that's another one I have put a lot of work in and I'm pleased with the result Smile
I believe it's already looped and ready to use, huh?

It is. Have a look at the "screenshots of what you´re doing" thread, I will post my work there soon.


RE: Music Poll The Third - unfa - 08-21-2011

Cool. Gonna check it out Smile

Note that a custom map can include any of these tracks, by simply including it. Just because a track was rejected for official maps, doesn't mean your own map cannot use it.

The ogg files are already fully prepared. You can find the rejected tracks now on http://www.xonotic.org/mapping/recommended-music-for-maps/.waiting/.attic/

To include one:

- put the ogg file in sound/cdtracks
- change your mapinfo cdtrack like to "cdtrack trackname" (only official maps have to use numbers there)
- put the source file somewhere too, or offer it separately on a permanent download location

NonBeast survived? How nice of you, people!

Also, the final version of Planetary Evacuation is available for download (see my signature), and the source is up as well (link to the folder in my music thread, direct link in the music thread for all music thread note: not a link to the thread)
