Sorry, didnt mean to step on anyones toes there. There just didnt seem to be much happening with the artwork... well, from what i could see here anyway. You should let cobaltstar continue with what he's doing, and ill step aside. i guess i can chip in ideas in this thread.
Feel free to delete the account over there. And dont worry, you can trust me not to distribute anything.

Boy, you're in now. There's no escape.
I do want to use that poké ball player. I have some ideas about.
In the artwork thread on the boards, I posted some ideas. Your included in them.
I'd suggest that you, cobaltstarfire, GAG and myself get together on IRC at some point in the next few weeks and whip out some ideas.

I'm for that, just pm me and stuff so I can plan for it. I'll PM my exceptionally empty schedule to you later so you know when I can and can't be around.
As a side note, after spending about 2 hours staring at a mudkip as I lined and colored it in I have to say, they are some pretty creepy little guys given enough time. Also, only got 4 more sketches to clean up and color!
Also also, should I sign up for these mystical forums?

I think that would be best. If we want to discuss something private, (but with more people from the project), the forums are an ideal way to do it

Hey Damned, it was either you or Prophet who I sent a PM. I decided to try my hand at a Sprout Tower mix as just something for myself. Whatever link I sent is pretty old by now, and the composition of that track has come a long way. I can link you to it if you like.
I noticed you said you didn't want any new track artists due to a lack of effort, but I figured I'd mention it because I already have a modest piece done.
If you'd like to consider including it as part of this project, let me know.

Ah yes, I remember that.
I'm not going to flip-flop on the tanking/not taking remixes thing. I've done it a couple of times already... Sorry. Still, you should try for the regular OCR remixes any way. Every remix added is only a good thing, and if it's a Pokémon one, so be it.

01-30-2009, 08:22 PM
Damned, I know it's your decision, but if he finishes his track and let us hear it, what's there to lose?
If we like it, it's already done and there won't be an increase in half-done wips. If we don't then it's no biggie either. Like I said, it's your call, but we can always use extra sonjgs. The Tales project has increased a lot it's final days

That's what she said.:tomatoface:
Anyway, I was thinking of this as the cover art, but a longer shot. Thats supposed to be a pokemon in the background btw. :P And it should be a pokemon near the beginning, so its like the start of the journey. And the back cover could be a shot of the shore of cinabar island, like Poinko sketched.

Also I posted this on the forums just before they went down. Its just a basic idea for a website

Wow. I actually like that a lot.
The black background needs some details, I think. It's kind of dark and featureless. Maybe a watermark-like pattern. It could easily tile and add some texture. We should set up some time on IRC this week to go over it. PM me with a basic schedule for your self and we'll see what can be worked out.
If it's beneficial, I'd like everyone in the project to show up as well, so we can go over any other details. Once a time is decided, we'll set it up.
The album covers were decided a long time ago. If the forums were up (HINT HINT, GAG), I'd point out the exact designs.

02-03-2009, 07:30 PM
I was thinking about how you were saying about hiding little easter eggs within the site. I thought the black could be fun to have unowns appear if you roll over them. I have no idea how to do that, but im pretty sure its relatively simple html.
The Damned
02-10-2009, 01:21 AM
So, the forums are still down... I guess GAG has been run over by a large construction site vehicle, and is unable to do whatever he said he was going to do that would get them up and running again.
Of course, now it will turn out that we really was run over by something, and is dead, and I will feel bad for having written that.

Yeah, that's actually kind of a good idea. Another thing I had thought of was having the missingno texture on the left and right outside borders of the page, fading into black. The content section would sit centered on top.

I have finally managed to contact Poinko. It seems that he never got any of the emails I sent to him over the last few months, which would explain the error messages I got sometimes. But he is alive, and he is still involved. He's just busy with some job or something, and it involves vampires. At least, that's what his message said.

I don't need to hear about your sex life. :<
Poinko has volunteered to work on the webpage. With Poinko, Pixel and Cobalt starfire handling the artwork, and Poinko doing the site, the rest of you need to finish up those remaining WIPs. I would love for all of them to make it, but time won't permit that. I'd like to get at least 14 remixes, and we already have 8. Just a half dozen more and we're fucking solid golduck.

I guess for now since I'm feeling restless I'm just going to draw more random pokemon and see if any of them can be used for the site or something.

Basicly... I'd sat remixes are about 85% done (mostly waiting on finalizing the remaining ones), with the artwork at about 90% (most of it will be used on the website), and the website is pretty much at 10% (we have a layout and a general design for it, but no one has started making it yet).

So I'm trying to get my old Main Theme files to work with my new box, and right now it's like trying to fit a fist in a keyhole: it just doesn't want to cooperate. From what I remember, all my track needed was a better ending, some small EQing, and a better title. The Damned, can you confirm this? If that's the case, I'll work my ass off to get the files to work, otherwise I may start from scratch or release my claim on the track if that's necessary. Let me know.

Casino Lounge - gslicer and Another Soundscape
Game On - Fishy
TEEM.ROKIT - tweek
Clash of the Titans - pu_freak

Olivine Theme (no title) - Chrono26

All remixes voted in should have completed, finalized versions of the files, and be ready for distribution in the next few months. I'm mostly waiting for the remaining ones above and one or two very early WIPs, and then that's it. That should get the total number of remixes to about 16 or so. Not a giant collab like the CT or FF albums, but a damn fine effort nonetheless.

Ah man... Pokecenter mixes almost always seem hard to pull off. The old R/B & G/S Pokecenter music is so grating... hell, I'd say it only got tolerable for more than a few seconds just with Diamond & Pearl.
When you source tune can be annoying, it doesn't seem easy to make it rock.

I truely am. For reals. I mean it. Seriously.
I just finished like 3 mixes. Made huge progress on 2 others. And am working on this and my Super Mario 64 mix. So ya. I'm alive and working.
I am just going no where fast.
2 years ago I liked this source, now I hate it.
Any chance I can pick a new one?
If not i'm gonna have to pull out. I'm just holding everyone back ;-)

Oh dear, we have a slight problem.
Willrock and Rozo have posted a Route 1 remix, but Protodome has also posted one as well. Will and Rozo got theirs up first, but not by much. Both are interesting and enjoyable remixes, but axing one over the other arbitrarily is kind of... arbitrary. It's not fair to anyone.
So, I guess the fairest and most transparent way is to have everyone else vote on it. Hit up the project forums and have a listen and a vote for the one you think should be carried on with. The other one can still try for an OCR acceptance, seeing how there is now a few Pokémon remixes already.

What's wrong with having two alternate versions of one track? It's not like we have 45 mixes already
The Damned
09-06-2009, 10:37 PM
True, but I always felt having two of the same source was redundant. I have also already turned down other submissions that wanted to do an existing remix in the past, so it wouldn't be fair to them to suddenly change the rules.

I like the voting idea, but can't the less 'liked' one be a bonus track? Would be better than it being axed from the project.

Hmm...maybe we can release a Special Edition, with most of the same tracks, throw in one or two others, and then charge $40 for it.
Marketing gold!
I guess we can throw a few in. Maybe put them hidden somewhere on the website, and on the tracklist, put something like "Track 20: ???", sort of like unlocking the National PokéDex. It's a silly idea, but maybe something like that.
I hesitate to use little gimmicks like that, but it might be sort of fun to do. I'm kind of "meh" on the whole idea.
Oh, wait. Shiny Version. One will be the shiny version. That way, it's all good.

Oh yes... that.
Seeing how Soul Silver and Heart Gold are coming out in Spring 2010, I've decided that we will release this album then as well.
Maybe a little bit before, so people aren't so busy playing the games that they won't forget the album.
Unfortunately, seeing how the current release date for SS/HG is "Spring 2010" that doesn't really narrow it down.

There's a new topic in Annoucements about possible release dates.
Also, if any of the OCR staff would like to come on in and participate and/or see how far we are, and even start to work out a release date, by all means, hit me up via a PM. I think having some of you may help with any issues we have left.
And scare the remixers with WIPs into completing them. "Ooooooo, look out! DJP is coming to get you!"

Actually it's sort of a running joke we have, where DA was the one I was all in favor of doing stuff, but the hold-up on Brand New Day was getting held back due to recording issues, and then Protodome came in. Remember how I was all "you're doing all this great work"?

I think uploading this technically broke their Terms of Service (so I can remove it if anyone wants me too) but I hosted a mirror of the preview track on Tindeck since that's a lot easier and faster than Megaupload.

I prefer the rock/metal arrangements, but I often like even other genres (thanks to OCR), if they sounds good to my ears. I just need to listen the entire songs.
I really love Pokémon soundtrack and this project has the potential of all the missing Pokémon remixes that I was waiting for. Still, I don't want to expect too much, because I know that not all the remixers do my favourite styles of music, but I'm sure all of you will do your best.

OK, I just realized that while we kind of hang out on the project forums a bit, I ahven't touched this thread in a while.
So, basically, we have 18 completed remixes, which quite a bit more than my original minimum number, and I love all of them.
We also have a lot of good artwork for the site and the CD cover. Thanks to our artists again.
The basic layout of the website is done, and the overall design is good. Mostly, it's just laying out the different parts and hosting it.
The final part of the whole thing is a release date. If Nintendo would get off their asses and post a release date for Heart Gold and Soul Silver in North America, we could release before it to cash in on the hype.
There. The reason why it's not out yet is Nintendo's fault. Blame them for everything.

Incredibly secret.
Except for any OCR judges that want to see what's going down... they can come in and rip everything apart.
Another Soundscape and Fishy are judges, and they got remixes... so why don't they tell everyone else about how awesome our stuff is?
Seriously, any and all judges are welcome to come by and see what we got so far. Comments, rant, destroy our souls... go for it. Just say so.

You forgot Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald, and Diamond/Pearl/Platinum. Last I heard, they were considered "mainstream" games (by which I think you mean "main series").
To answer you question, if you remove the remakes and their music, but include music made exclusively for the third versions (Yellow, Crystal, Emerald and Platinum), we get roughly 415 songs. Now, we could cut that down a bit by removing some songs that carry the same melody (like the Gym Leader theme that is used across the series) and the various chimes and event tunes (barely even six notes, if that), we still get well over 350 songs.
Now, as much as I like to do the entire series to date, I thin that would be a never-ending task, and I think the talent drain is bad enough. Besides, we have a nice sampling of each generation, and I think it works.
Maybe in the future, if this album is popular enough... a sequel album? "The Missingno Tracks: Special Pikablu Edition"?
If you ask me, cashing on hype doesn't justify anything unless you're perfecting the product in the meantime.
What exactly do you mean by "perfecting the product"?
We are taking music from GameBoy, GameBoy Advance and DS games, and redoing them into vocals pieces, piano solos, psychedelic mindtrips, and punk/ska rock-outs, using everything from saxophones to DragonAvenger's voice. If that meets your definition of "perfecting", then there you go.
As for the idea of cashing in, a new game always gets the fan community excited. This way, we get more attention, which means more downloads and torrent use, which means more people listen to the music we put all this effort and time into.
Besides, it's not like we're aiming for the exact same day. I would love to get at least two to four weeks before. If they both came out on the same day, everyone would be busy playing the game to even bother with this album. We'd put it out and no one would bother looking it up. That would make us a bunch of sad pandas.
GTAHater836
11-28-2009, 07:27 PM
I knew before you said it that Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald, Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum were the main series. I just didn't mention them because nowhere in the first post (that I've seen) does it say this project is covering those subsequent 6 games.
As for "perfecting the product"...Sorry. I've spent so much time debugging programs that I think everything has to be obsessively "debugged". I got carried away with my overperfectionistic thought patterns that I feared for this project.

You want to hit this" and I was all "dude, I'm muslim, we can't do that," and then he was all "you're muslim?" and I said "no, not really, I just like to see how people react to that," and then he was all "whatever, man" and I was all "whatever" and then we were all like "whatever.

Ha, I remember when once upon a time the race was to finish the project before Diamond/Pearl hit stateside. Damned felt that the album would face a huge setback since everyone working on it would, as true Poke'mon fans, switch gears to the new game.

OK, so there's a bit of an issue with artwork at this point.
Basically, we have had several different artists come in at different points, and they all did some nice work... but their individual styles and skill levels aren't matching well.
I've also noticed that we don't really have a coherent overall style or subject. It's mostly different little clips of artwork scattered all over the place. I believe the issue with that is that we (and certainly myself, of course) were in what I like to call "OK, that's awesome and let's do it now and not look back" mode.
So for now, I've locked the project board's artwork thread, and will be reconsidering the entire direction of the album's artwork.
It might be a few days before there's any real decision made.
I'd like to thank our artists for the work they have done so far. It's not your fault per se, so much is it is a lack of managing it better on my part.

Just listened to Champion's Horizon on OCAD, and it was absolutely beyond awesome. I remember the first time I surfed to Route 27 and heard that theme. That, and finding out that I was in Kanto (that's right, fucking Kanto from RBY) gave me an experience that was close to an orgasm, and the remix absolutely portrayed the feeling I had when I went into Kanto in Silver. Awesome work, Willrock. Can't wait for this song along with the others on the album.

Hmmm...
So you're having art woes eh?
I know plenty of really good artists that might be able to pitch in. I know that other OCR album art usually have a single artist making them so as to be consistant.
I can't say much for my art myself, and I'm not sure it would be up to snuff, but I have connections. If you think you could use a different artist to work on it, let me know, I can find someone.
No offense to the rest of the artist. Heck, I haven't even seen the existing art in question, but I can tell ya that art consistancy is pretty important when it comes to presentation, and if you have a lot of artists working on one project, well, it can sometimes look sloppy, no matter how good the individual art looks.
Just my two cents. :p
