Ambrosia Software Web Board: Ares music is out of this world! - Ambrosia Software Web Board

Hey y'all!

Just downloaded the Ares Music folder...think it's absolutely fabulous! Who are the musicians and do they have any other music other than for Ares?

Cya!
Happy New Year!

I don't know if there's actually musicians that made the music, but it is some damn fine tunes.

I agree, El Spamo. Didja download the file? I'm sitting here w/my headphones on listening to them...over...and...over...and...over,etc.
Well, someone had to have made the tunes. I'll bet that info is on the opening credits...
whatcha think? It'll probably turn out to be Matt Burch, who knows.

Cya!

Are you talking about the music that came with Ares, or an external music for Ares? If your'e talking about factory music, then yes, the music is pretty . If your'e talking about external music, where do I find it? Or is the music available as an MP3 file? Call me The when replying

I believe that NL wrote the music himself.

In the credits, it says it was based on the music from Doom Troopers Unite or something along those lines.

I havn't been by here since the beta, but if I get you're meaning, you can extract the music pretty easily. Just open the "Ares Sounds: file in the "Ares Data ƒ" folder using ResEdit [[url="http://"http://207.208.148.74/resedit.shtml"]Info[/url]] [[url="http://"http://download.info.apple.com/Apple_Support_Area/Apple_Software_Updates/English-North_American/Macintosh/Utilities/ResEdit_2.1.3.sea.bin"]Download[/url]]. There are nine "MADH" resources; each one is a song. Open the one you want, copy the hex (center column), then make a new file. Using Forker [[url="http://"http://207.208.148.74/files/forker13.hqx"]Download[/url]], paste the hex into the data fork of the new file. As a last step, go to "File" --> "Get info for [New File]" and set "Type" to to "MADH" and "Creator" to "SNPL". You can then use PlayerPro [[url="http://"http://www.quadmation.com/pphome.htm"]Info[/url]] [[url="http://"http://www.quadmation.com/PP/Downloads/PlayerPRO/PlayerPRO5.9.2.Freeware.clean.hqx"]Classic[/url]] [[url="http://"http://www.quadmation.com/PP/Downloads/PlayerPRO/PlayerPRO5.9.2X.Freeware.hqx"]Carbon[/url]] (shareware, $69) to play them.

As for their authorship, yes, it's Nathan's work. I used them to help me through a few all-nighters freshman year - cranked the subwoofer and let the rhythms drive me. When I told this to Nathan and expressed my admiration for his techno composition skills, he told me he thought they sucked and that I had to be some kind of masochist.

Take it for what you will.

That's wonderful, Regulus! Hey, if you're a masochist for listening to the stuff, then he must be a sadist for "creating" it, right?
But it is great music. 'Course it has to be great, Ares is a great game!
BTW: How was y'all's (how's that for punctuating a word?) holidays? Also, welcome to 2002, the year of (whatever word it is that means something that reads the same forwards as backwards)!

Ooops! The tote board reads 70 (this post would be 71). There goes my lucky number! Maybe I should make my l/f number 1000...gives me something to shoot for, huh?

It also gives us something to shoot you for as well.
