  1. is it a free-flying scroll wheel? my logi revolution mx has a wheel that will scroll freely when i throw it in a direction rather than slowly scrolling. there should be some way to disable it and link the weight/brake back up to the wheel through the options if that's what it is.
  2. yeah, harmony, you might be not that great on the kit, but you make up with it by kicking that old japanese dude's ass on the keyboards. and you play hand percussion, which is over nine thousand times better than playing kit. way sexier.
  3. i actually almost got that deal simply because it was worth more for components than it was as a whole computer. i know i'd be able to sell those parts for 500$ or so. and i wanted the monitor.
  4. we wanted to do a better cut.
  5. you don't, that's why it's called overclocked REMIX. go to myspace, get sucked into that festering hellhole. edit: you're right, meteo, there's lots of people who want to undercut professional composers by using amateur stuff, most of which is crap. good games rarely use crappy music.
  6. not really digging it as much as you are, i guess.
  7. beat me to it. i should point out, Shiby (or whatever the hell your name is), that if you're offering to do this for free you're almost definitely fitting into two of these three categories: 1. under the age of 19 or 20 2. a poor musician 3. someone who won't stick it out to the end of a project the only reason to compose for free for any game is because you can't get a job doing it elsewhere. if you ARE a good musician, advertise that you'll charge competitive rates, not that you'll do it for free.
  8. a repair installation would definitely take care of it easily, but there's gotta be ways that aren't so lengthy and power-user-ish to do it. try getting HijackThis and running it. post your log from that, and maybe i'll see something i recognize. edit: also, try downloading the sysinternals Process Manager. it's an advanced form of task manager that might help me out in figuring out what's there and what's not. see anything specific that's not supposed to be there?
  9. email it to me. my name, as listen above this most - firstname.lastname@gmail.com.
  10. not to derail again, but that's exactly what people's issue is. using Jesus's name as an expletive.
  11. for what it's worth, i typed junly on purpose =) is there a reason that some of the blues aren't the exact color of the rest of them? just curious.
  12. updated. thanks to everyone keeping the info updated!
  13. hah, parallel port printing? that's REALLY old, most printers in the last ten years use BIDI, which is the super-long port that has the printer near it on most motherboards. biggest port in regular use today (just slightly bigger than IDE).
  14. the best thing about this remix is that you made all those patches and everything. want to send them my way?
  15. i saw this on my feeds this morning. pretty awesome. looking forward to it.
  16. out of all the people on this site who've posted here, i believe you, sam. only you. and with that, i'm going to bed.
  17. i didn't bother to read the rest of the thread, but the first post was awesome.
  18. sounds cool, looking forward to it. man, a lot of community composers are getting involved on XBLA. anso, you, me...who else is out there doing this stuff too?
  19. meteo, isn't that the basics of what makes the world dystopic instead of etopic? (dunno if etopic is a word, but it fits what i'm asking so i'll run with it).
  20. i'm a christian, went to a christian college, grew up in a christian home, go to church, all that stuff. i cuss occasionally (as people on the pokemon project know). all that said, i agree with everything this dude said. he should post more. in regards to the mix: love the beat, love the variety in instrumentation you've used here. i think it's awesome! i saved it (with a slightly altered name) and will continue to listen to it as a landmark in our musical community. i just wish that this landmark had been done with a bit more 'oomph'. to a point, i agree with escariot. i'm not as hard-line as he was, but i really think that more could have been done, particularly since what's here is what someone like me (who slathers on ethnic percussion like jam on biscuits) would use as the backing track for a song, nothing more. hell, i HAVE been using percussion tracks like this for songs on the game i'm scoring currently. i realize that everything here was performed live, but with some slight alterations it'd be possible to do it all using various loops from different sets. i'm not into that as much. there's been several mixes in the past that have taken extremely minimalist source tunes (my track for link's awakening comes to mind, source is just an arpeggio, nothing else) and added melodic material that was wholly derived from the arranger's mind rather than the composer's original music. i LOVE this idea! expanding on the original composer's intentions is the point of remixing. all that said, this is still a great piece by OCR standards of percussion performance. it ain't landmark in the world of percussion ensemble rep, obviously, as referenced by the significant lack of time changes, timbral exploration, and pitched instrumentation, but it's still a really awesome piece that's fun to listen to and is a good 'war music' kind of piece. doug i love you ...you know that right edit: before someone repudiates my post, listen to a few days worth of percussion ensemble music. then attempt to coach your response in words that make sense for this discussion (aka, arguing that the usage of a variety of afro-cuban hand percussion counts as timbral exploration, which i don't think it does). been performing in a group for years, and i feel that i know what the standard is for this stuff. you probably don't (unless your name is doug or you perform this rep regularly). so don't go saying OMG AWESUM U SUK before you actually know what you're saying. and no, listening to metal or something doesn't classify as knowing anything about classical percussion ensemble repertoire.
  21. the foxconn board is actually pretty nice, all told, and has a radeon 2100 internal. but this asus model and this gigabyte board both have good onboard video. would that work?
