    Submitting original work.

    I'm guessing you'll want to finish making your game, release it and wait for somebody to remix the music from it, or remix it yourself. OCR is for game remixes/rearrangements, not original tracks.

    ...An idea might be do finish a couple of songs from your game, upload them for people to hear, and perhaps a well-known remixer will do a remix of it; then coincide the release of your game with the addition of the remix to OCR. (Good publicity for your game, no?)

    Soundtracks to games you've never played

    For most of the game soundtracks I have, I've never played the game. Some I've played a game in the series and just downloaded the soundtracks for the whole series, or I've learned of them through OCR/projects/etc, or a recommendation, or whatever.

    Never played Xeno, PlayStation FF, Katamari, Wild Arms, etc and I've only played Tekken3 and Tag; but I've downloaded tonnes of soundtracks. Same goes for movies; I don't see many, but I download alot of ost's.

    Would you buy an SNES game with a replaced battery?

    I'd buy the one with the replaced battery, cos I'd rather have a playable game than a pristine one that doesn't work...

    Speaking of dead batteries, my copy of Pokemon Silver refuses to save anymore. I'm annoyed with this, cos it's a fairly recent game. (My Donkey Kong '94 cart works and saves fine.) What do I need to replace the battery and how hard is it? (and should this thread/post be in Tech Assist? =P )

    Odd problems (Windows Live and WinAmp)

    in General Discussion

    This morning, my computer was working fine... until- I rebooted =O

    Windows Live Messenger and Winamp now refuse to work.

    Click the Windows Live shortcut, and ta-da! Nothing. Press C+A+D and there's the 'msnmsgr.exe', listed in the 'Processes' tab.

    Start up Winamp, and it appears on the screen, but the playlist window is blacked out and Winamp is shown to be 'Not Responding'.

    Any ideas why this happened and what I can do to fix it?

    EDIT: Ok, so a few days have passed. I've done a fresh install and not included Norton (as advised by a friend) and WinAmp seems to be working normally. However, I've tried using MSN7.5 and Windows Live Messenger; both will appear on screen, sign in and then promptly freeze. Cruddy old Windows Messenger still works.

    EDIT: Ok, so the problem with Windows Live is on my sister's pc as well. I'm yet to try it on dad's pc... I looked at the router settings; double checked port forwarding. All seems to be ok.

    EDIT: Well, that was odd. Yesterday Live just started working again. Rather odd indeed.

    How did you spend NYE

    A few friends came over; we played Twister and Rape Me (a wrestling game; the goal is to pin your opponent's pelvis down XD )

    One of my friends is into new age stuff, so there were tarot readings all round; she also insisted on giving me fashion advice and painting my fingernails... =/

    Played a few games; bit of SSBM & FZero GX.

    Great fun, especially considering I usually sit at home on my pc, at OCR or something. =P

    Sony PSP

    'ehook' or something, I think it's called... My friend was telling me about it the other day. I don't own a PSP, so I didn't pay alot of attention, but from what I gathered it had something to do with changing firmware. :?

    Nintendo DS

    So maybe in March when Phantom Hourglass comes out Nintendo will surprise us again with a preorder bundle since hey, it'll be Zelda's 20th birthday as well.

    More importantly, they better make this game feel different (other than the touch screen control; I want new concepts introduced). Minish Cap burned me out on Zelda because I felt like I played the same damned game for the umpteenth time.

    What the hell do you want?

    A FPS?

    A RTS?

    I mean, its zelda, if would not be zelda if there were no dungeons and items. What the hell do you want ? A flower aranging game?

    Pikmin...

    *dials phone*

    Me: Hey sup Mr Miyamoto

    Miyamoto: Sup d00d

    Me: People want Pikmin DS

    Miyamoto: Sure thing, sounds good

    Me: Awesome, see it on the shelves in 12 months?

    Miyamoto: Make it 18.

    Me: Done.

    What shirt size are you?

    Not sure about the album idea. I'm more inclined to go with a dvd of the torrent, particularly for those who can't dl torrents for whatever reason, or who want an easy way to 'collect the set'. As for selling albums, the project albums would be more likely I think; eg KiC and DSoP (cos they're lossless, cd quality, etc).

    Medium shirt for me, but probably a large hoodie. (I'm really glad these changes are happening; I've wanted to get some OCR merch for ages, but have heard alot about the pitfalls of the current store setup.)
