Guest Phileosophos Posted June 17, 2004 Report Share Posted June 17, 2004 Hi there. I corresponded with Micah via email, and he suggested I post here to become a recruit. I can wear a lot of hats, but I'm most interested in contributing music to this project. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulus Posted June 29, 2004 Report Share Posted June 29, 2004 (edited) Hi Guys, i only found out about this cool project late last night...(or was it early this morning? I emailed Micah, who said to say hi on this board - so Hi guys I still have to read up on a WHOLE lot of stuff, and am dling the alpha as i type, but would be very happy to help out in anyway i can. I've made a few tunes here and there for personal stuff, and love making loops and working with sound effects. might even have a short 40 second mini tune which could possibly be used in a sub-intro (or maybe before the starting intro apears or before a main game starts etc? (you know, sort of when theres like a background of space and dark image, and a bit of text cuts in, and then quickly fades out, and then 5 seconds later another one appears, and fades out etc with stars in the backgound, or shots of key places in the game etc eg something like.dark picture, fades into view."there was a time..." (fades out)new picture"when everything seemed fine"... (fade out)next picture"we explored the oceans"...etc"we sent probes to mars"....etc.."we thought we were alone".... fade outfade to black space..."But We Were NOT Alone.......".. Da-daa-daaaaaaa!! and then the funky intro movies start etc etc, and the main game etc etc oh well, just an idea i suppose (i'll try and convert my music to wav format from my mp3 player as a socket busted please feel free to pm me etc.. btw just another thought, i might be wrong, but if you use uncompresses music in the game, (which i havent played yet - just finished dling), the game shoudl play much smoother - eg, an mp3, or compresses ogg file etc would probably put more strain on a system's cpu then a wav. - a lot of us still use basic 3d cards such as 3dfx/voodoo, and lower end pcs, eg p2 333s witn win98 - any reduction on CPU load is apways appreciated, and will also help make the game to become more available to us folks (including me) to be able to play the game etc. thanks for reading so far, and i hope i havent waffled on too much regards,paulus (also paulus from www.quickpar.org) Edited June 29, 2004 by paulus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulus Posted June 29, 2004 Report Share Posted June 29, 2004 guess what... i tried to run the game, and it crashed on me but i tried on my dads computer and managed to get the basic black globe geoscape, with no text on any buttons, but i clicked here and there and blue lights appeared, and managed to get the music, graphics options screens along with music, and the ufopedia + the credits screen at a smooth scrolling 35 fps i wasnt able to change or see any text etc on how to actually change the gfx settings, so i guess im sort of doomed to not being able to play/test until i get a new gfx pci card (there must be a way to "basic code" a game to work with basic, non-possibly-conflicting screens etc? eg, like making basic html page so that it will work with all browser versions... must be a way , or am i totally mistaken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StarKillar Posted August 24, 2004 Report Share Posted August 24, 2004 (edited) I'm a long time fan of X-Com and would love to help out in the sound area (I'm also apping to CT) particularly environmental sounds, such as creatures / aliens and weapon fire.

blane.. Posted August 28, 2004 Report Share Posted August 28, 2004 well i'm not sure what music has been chosen or done. i have an idea for one of the interception sound tracks. it's all original, but still captures the feel of the first one in my personal opinion. only problem is it's in a min. long mp3 format, and i don't have the tools to cut it perfect for looping. you can listen to it athttp://www.angelfire.com/indie/wallpaper/Emclip.mp3 if someone likes it, i think it's pretty clear where you should cut the parts to get the loops, but i just don't have the software capabilities... if someone wants to do that... i offer the sound clip to the project... you can use it or not. or a small bit... or an adaption of it.. whatever... i loved x-com and want to see this thing come together ASAP... couldn't believe there was such a cult underground following for the original x-com....... anyway... yeah....

blane.. Posted August 29, 2004 Report Share Posted August 29, 2004 on second thought why don't you all just make me a recruit so i can see the workshop, and get a feel for everything thats goin' on.... and then make some more samples. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AtomosZ Posted November 26, 2004 Report Share Posted November 26, 2004 Man. What an awesome project.When I came acorss this page I started to get giddy. Looks like you already have a lot sound artists but this project is too sweet to pass up.If you need music, I have a huge library (all original of course) that is steadily getting bigger. I done a little sfx work, but I'm eager to start doing more (been looking for a project to get going on it) I've worked in a world-reknowned recording studio so I'm familiar with all the big audio software and I have access to most of them as well as some of the best recording gear in the world.I also play guitar, bass, and keyboard. Sign me up and I'll get started right away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red knight Posted November 27, 2004 Report Share Posted November 27, 2004 Hi Atomosz, Sound effects is one of those areas that surprisingly nobody is working in, we have lots of music, but without decent sound effects there is no game at all. So I am sure that you can do a GREAT contribution in that area. GreetingsRed Knight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

red knight Posted December 4, 2004 Report Share Posted December 4, 2004 (edited) To all artists, this is not related to Xenocide in anyway but maybe someone whats to give a hand... Whole story: I am teaching a young friend of mine (that I would hopefully abduct to work on Xenocide when he is ready - but not yet I need him to work in other higher level languages C# to be exact...) So well after talking with a special teacher (a friend of my mother) I had decided that his second project would be a computer assistant to help special teachers to recover autists kids. The app will be open source (free) as Xenocide is, and even if I will be overseeing the whole process I wont be coding anything . So if any sound artists wants to help just drop a PM or contact me directly... The task is a one shot issue ( basicly specify a sequence of sound filters to accomplish the desired sound effect so he can code it and accomplish it in realtime). For more details just contact me so we dont add noise in Xenocide forums... Your help would be really appreciated cause I think that with this app we can make a difference.

Mission Difficult Posted January 7, 2005 Report Share Posted January 7, 2005 Hi everyone. I'm looking to join the Xenocide team as a sound designer (hence my posting here.) I work at a post production studio in Manhattan as a sound designer and have access to it during off hours. I also have a pretty decent home studio. I also have experience in video editing for what it's worth. Seems like you have enough musicians but if need be I can whip something up. If you need anymore info, just let me know.

red knight Posted January 8, 2005 Report Share Posted January 8, 2005 Following usual procedure already (you have a PM in your Box)... Contact Raven Squad, as Micah hadnt published the Viper Movie yet, you can add sound effects to it. The issue is in the Issue Tracker (bugs.projectxenocide.com), get an account there and post in the Viper Movie issue if you want to tackle that one.

Anyways, I just finished doing some music for an arcade game, and I absolutly love X-com, so I would love to help out. I can make some music for the battlescape, especially for night missions and anything else. I also have a decent library of sfx, so I could help you there. Go X-com!

ziniparandi Posted April 1, 2005 Report Share Posted April 1, 2005 Hello, I'm a french musician and a xcom fan, and i think your project is exciting. I was wondering if you need any help with music and sfx. I've worked on several commercial video games before and on professional short movies too (i can send you some of the things i've done) . I study classical music and musicology, i could write orchestral pieces for the game. I also very interested in voice effects (soldiers and aliens, etc).So if you are interested, please let me know : [email protected] And congratulations for the work you've done so far.

flesh19no Posted May 8, 2005 Report Share Posted May 8, 2005 If creepy and atmospheric music is what you want I can make it. I can do some similiar style that the original X-Com had, just with some more variations. I thought the music X-Com had matched the genre, but it still was a bit repetative.

echo500ms Posted August 22, 2005 Report Share Posted August 22, 2005 I think this is an awesome project. I wouldn't mind contributing with SFX or music if I could. I am an amateur but have some experience in sound production for game-type projects, and I don't mind criticism at all =) Anyway, I will be playing like mad when the project is done.
