Re: KS Additional music preview

This is very nice and melancholic! I like it!

Sound quality is actually better than most of stuff in the current demo, can I ask what VSTs were used? :)

Re: EvilDragon: better piano tracks!

Because it's hard to record the real piano in the proper way (quality microphones, various mic positions...), and this studio approach (modelled piano controlled via external MIDI keyboard) offers the same quality of recording, with even more flexibility.

Re: I would like to see the music redone

If you want redos, make a sample and post it. Redoing the music just on command isn't quite easy/possible right now since the composer for all the original music quit, and now Blue123 is making music, so we already have a good source of new music, since what Blue's done is pretty damn good. So, aga...

Re: Benchmarking: Let's see the minimum requirements to play.

Did I hear opengl support for Ren'Py 7? My oc'd Radeon 9600 256MB AGP is begging to take on those particle effects >:D Not until a year or so passes (my speculation). PyTom is doing a lot of work lately, developing both versions of Ren'py (6 and 7), 7 obviously taking much more time as there will b...

For me, Lilly, she's just so cute and mannered <3

Second comes Hanako.

But most of all, if they can come as 2-in-1, that would be ^______^

Re: EvilDragon: better piano tracks!

I can't see how so, in the days of broadband Internet, really :/ Care to explain why, maybe? This is really a chance to make all those tracks shine with the right they deserve, as I can provide great-quality sounds and articulations... I just think that sound quality should match the art quality, an...

Re: I would like to see the music redone

The point is that it can be even better. It can be droolable. It can have more feel to it. It can be even more demandable! And I'm not saying anything about changing the notes or arrangement, just using higher quality virtual instruments and tweaking the dynamics of the notes, and articulations and ...

Re: Benchmarking: Let's see the minimum requirements to play.

Ren'py is highly optimized in many things it does, but for some (some << many) things it's not. That is unfotunately not up to 4LS to solve, but PyTom...

Re: EvilDragon: better piano tracks!

I see nothing bad in translating. As a matter of fact, I'm gonna get there too, probably, along with two of my friends, and add a Croatian translation of KS. That would be first VN in Croatian!

Re: Benchmarking: Let's see the minimum requirements to play.

True, Ren'py in some cases isn't the most CPU-effective engine there is, and particle effects (snowflakes, the medical word onslaught) are kind of CPU intensive because they do busy-waits, making 100% of CPU active at all times. I wonder if that's gonna be solved, because when using a lot of particl...

Re: Donate?

I think I have read somewhere that if you're willing to donate to 4LS, that you rather give that money to charities, as they would need it more than them.

Re: I would like to see the music redone

In fact, due to their nature as MIDI's, importing them into a DAW is extremely time consuming and impractical. Not really. I have Cakewalk Sonar 7 and importing MIDIs is not a chore of any kind. I import the MIDI, it creates all the channels that are used in the MIDI file, and I link the outputs of...

Re: I would like to see the music redone

I really hated that pitch bend in Daylight :/ Sounds really out of place and breaks the mood of the song. I think only one of those two notes pitch bending should sound. Also, that kind of pitch bending is really really hard to do on acoustic guitar. I really propose that to be changed somehow - pre...

Re: EvilDragon: better piano tracks!

I also don't find anything wrong with your proposal, as most H-game music is midi anyways. . . Yeah, probably they're all MIDI renders with better-quality samples. Except stuff like FSN, that VN has some really good music production. Well, as my pianist side chimes in, samples aren't enough for rep...
