By the way guys, the one posted as "Tony" is me
-
I would also like to announce that I submitted a track earlier today!
-
Oh my bad, I guess I overlooked that in the search. Take this as a reminder then
-
I figured I might as well just post this since I know a few of you have noticed that the VGMix server is down. Paragon and I have setup a temporary backup for DoD at http://dod.bossies.org until virt gets a chance to check out what's up with the VGMix server.
And y'all should really check out Last Month's DoD battle (RAR Archive of Tracks, Bossies.org Results page), because it was totally freaking awesome and had a collection of some of the highest quality tracks ever seen in DoD.
And please let everyone you know who follows DoD about this, DoD is still here, but I know there are a lot of listeners who don't go on The Shizz and wouldn't know about the new website location. Plus it doesn't show up yet in Google. Thanks guys.

What.. I am on season 1
You should really do yourself a favor and not come into this thread until you've finished the entire series. Spoilers GALORE.

Wow damn, I'm surprised SnappleMan hasn't updated the first post yet!
The album is finished, printed, and shipping!!!! People have already received their copies. If you haven't bought a copy yet, then what the hell is wrong with you!?
So yeah, go get your copy at www.rockednloaded.com

Frustratingly enough, I'm still not being able to access this, despite downloading the whole darn thing.
I didn't think it'd be this difficult to get this working on my computer of all places.
No matter how many times I modify the install to save in either the VST or VSTi folder, refreshing the More Channels on FL doesn't bring them up.
Very annoying.
Is there a step I'm missing?
Here's what I do:
I go to part 1, and modify the installation
In a choice between RTAS plugin and EW Silver Library, I choose RTAS Plugin
In the location to save, I choose either Image Line's VST or VSTi folder. However, when I go to those folders, the Library is not there.
Anything I'm missing?
On all the EWQL stuff I've used thus far, it doesn't copy the library over (would take too much effin' time!) and they have you manually move the library files to the location you want. When you go through the installation, you choose where the library is located. If the sounds aren't in your chosen folder then it won't work.
Also, this might be different in the PLAY engine, but there's a menu in each EWQL plugin where you can select the location of the library. Poke around and I bet you'll find it.
-
Why do you need this if you pirated EWQL?
It just pulls a little bit of samples (it's a sample of samples) from EWQLSO. (which you already have pirated, therefore you're downloading a free version of a fraction of pirated stuff you already have)
And if you don't download the driver from the PACE website you can't use free version.
What I'm saying is, why download the free version?
Because it uses the PLAY engine, and I want to try it [the engine] out, since I'm looking at buying Stormdrum 2.0. A couple OCR types told me that the PLAY engine is a disaster (but bLiNd mentioned that it's a lot better now). So I just want to see what's up. However, if there's some sneaky thing that the driver does since it's apparently some "anti-piracy" thing, then I want to know just so it doesn't screw up any of my current stuff.
-
So I tried to install this, and a message from Windows 7 popped up asking me if I wanted to install "Pace Anti-Piracy". Not gonna lie, I definitely have some pirated EWQL stuff and I don't want it to be disabled or anything. Apparently this is also the emulated iLok driver that EWQLSO Free uses to run. Anyone know anything about this?
-
Do you guys know if this uses the PLAY Engine? I already have Symphonic Orchestra in Gold and Platinum editions, but I've been looking at checking out Stormdrum 2.0, which uses the PLAY engine. However, I've heard some bad things about it and it would be nice if I can demo PLAY before I buy anything.

I think you mean an amazing soundtrack by an amazing remixer, remixed by some of the best remixers out there.
I just had a thought... Is this the first time that an established remixer wrote an original game soundtrack that was then remixed?
I'm going to say yes. Don't forget that the soundtrack's original composer is on the album, even if he is one of us. That shit doesn't happen every day!

who the hell drew that cover
SO MUCH WIN
I hope you're being sarcastic. It's FoxxDragon, resident TheShizz/DoD artist legend!

If anyone's interested, I made a video of myself playing a 2-guitar arrangement on this song:
I decided I needed a better way to push the song than having an mp3 to a synchronized MAMplayer visual.

You really need to read the fine print for those unlimited deals. Some of them throw in nasty terms, like requiring that 50% or more of your bandwidth has to be from pages (rather than binary files).
"UNLIMITED" USAGE POLICIES AND DEFINITIONS
- What "Unlimited" means. HostMonster.Com does not set an arbitrary limit or cap on the amount of resources a single Subscriber can use. In good faith and subject to these Terms, HostMonster.Com makes every commercially reasonable effort to provide its Subscribers with all the storage and bandwidth resources needed to power their web sites successfully, as long as the Subscriber's use of the service complies with these Terms. By not setting limits on key resources, we are able to provide simple, consistent pricing to our Subscribers as they grow their websites. As a result, a typical website may experience periods of great popularity and resulting increased storage without experiencing any associated increase in hosting charges.
- What "Unlimited" DOES NOT mean. HostMonster.Com employs complex mechanisms to protect its Subscribers and systems from abuse. HostMonster.Com's offering of "unlimited" services is not intended to allow the actions of a single or few Subscribers to unfairly or adversely impact the experience of other Subscribers.
HostMonster.Com's service is a shared hosting service, which means that multiple Subscriber web sites are hosted from the same server and share server resources. HostMonster.Com's service is designed to meet the typical needs of small business and home business website Subscribers in the United States. It is NOT intended to support the sustained demand of large enterprises, internationally based businesses, or non-typical applications better suited to a dedicated server.
HostMonster.Com will make every commercially reasonable effort to provide additional resources to Subscribers who are using their website(s) consistent with these Terms, including moving Subscribers to newer and bigger shared servers as necessary. However, in order to ensure a consistent and quality experience for all Subscribers, HostMonster.Com does place automated safeguards to protect against any one site growing too quickly and adversely impacting the system until HostMonster.Com can evaluate said sites resource needs.
- Unlimited Hosting Space. HostMonster.Com does not set arbitrary limits on the amount of disk space a Subscriber can use for the Subscriber's website, nor does HostMonster.Com charge additional fees based on an increased amount of storage used, provided the Subscriber's use of storage complies with these Terms. Please note, however, that the HostMonster.Com service is designed to host websites . HostMonster.Com does NOT provide unlimited space for online storage, backups, or archiving of electronic files, documents, log files, etc., and any such prohibited use of the Services will result in the termination of Subscriber's account, with or without notice.
- Unlimited File Transfer. HostMonster.Com does not set arbitrary limits on the amount of visitor traffic a web site can receive or on the amount of content a Subscriber can upload to his/her/its website in a given month, nor does HostMonster.Com charge additional fees based on increased use of bandwidth, as long as the Subscriber's use of the Services complies with these Terms. In most cases, a Subscriber's web site will be able to support as much traffic as the Subscriber can legitimately acquire. However, HostMonster.Com reserves the right to limit processor time, bandwidth, or processes in cases where it is necessary to prevent negatively impacting other Subscribers.
Not sure what's so wrong about this...
I've been using this host for a few years now and not ONCE have I ever run into a problem such described. The brunt of my bandwidth is mp3 files while page visits are not nearly as much. I've read over the terms and I have not seen one suspicious thing they've tried to sneak in. The only thing they demand is no personal data storage, and no illegal activities, which I would expect most hosts to ask for.

How much is he paying for the hosting? If it's more than $5.95/mo. then he should check out Hostmonster.com. It's what I use, it's cheap, it has unlimited server space and bandwidth, and was really the only host that did this at the time I registered. It seems to me that many hosts are gearing towards this anyway, so I'd recommend he just looks for a different host.
If he doesn't want to change hosts I might be able to help with hosting files. I can't do it for free but I wont gouge his wallet.

hey dude, those responses are far from wildly negative.
kickass track still/
I guess, save for this comment: "Awful. The orchestra did not fit the main melody really well, and generally sounded like a cheap knock-off cover (Which it was). Reminds me of SnM by Metallica, except that SnM worked, but this did not at all"
(which, by the way, is a very, very funny comment)
The comments I guess are mostly split 50/50 between "Hey, cool!" and "Ho-hum"/"This sucks"
I'm tempted to register and ask them to elaborate on their opinions but I figure that there's probably no use in arguing with fanboys.

Good sir, I have transformed your incredible track into something that even someone as musically retarded as I can perform:
Guitar/Bass:

Drums:

Luckily, I am not plastic-ally retarded as well. <3 Hell March.
Christ man. I love you. Can you read tabs? I can send you tabs of the parts for you to make the song more accurate. I would send you separated tracks but my laptop is out of commission right now.
EDIT: Turns out I already have separated tracks on an external Hard Drive.

This remix kicks ass! Just thought I'd let you know that some people started a thread about it at the official Red Alert message boards: http://forums.commandandconquer.com/jforum/posts/list/19742.page
Just checked out this page. The response is wildly negative. No one seems to like it there. But that's ok, at least actual musicians seem to like it
And at least Frank, the original composer, liked it.
-
Hey thanks guy. I appreciate the words.
I was just thinking to myself, "Why the hell hasn't someone done a metal orchestral remix of Hell March from Red Alert 2 and called it Hell March to the Apocalypse"?Well done on anticipating my every whim. This remix is stellar.
I guess I'll just have to wait for a remix of "Mechanical Man" from C&C though
Are you...serious?
We're like....psychically connected or something.Also, Mechanical Man rules.
-
excellent playing, man. i'd love to hear slap fills that aren't all just b7-8 riffs, but it sounded pretty cool.
Haha, blame that on virt. He does everything with his keyboard, which means pitchbend whole step rape.
-
Dude this is nothing compared to Ubik and Norg's resemblance to each other. I would say to them "You want ice cream cone," both of them say yes.
HOW IN DE HAIL.
Haha yeah, well nothing can possibly top that. Still, considering I actually stumbled onto the show by accident and seeing this guy on, especially having been at MAGfest a month ago, it was like "y hullo thar djpretzel"
-
I'm surprised that no one's caught onto this yet. Searched the forum and nothing.
So there's that new TV show Fringe on Fox during Tuesday nights. Pretty sweet show, it's like my X-Files fix after it ended. However, the lead male actor, who's name is Joshua Jackson, bares a STRIKING resemblance to djpretzel.
Example:
For reference, djpretzel:
If you still don't believe me:
EDIT: Gaaah, the "i" key on my keyboard keeps screwing with me. DAVID Lloyd, not DAVD Lloyd.

Please tell me there's an OCR submission e-mail with this mix in it... PLEASE!!! It does need to be true, though.
Why yes...yes there is!
