player Posted June 17, 2003 What does everyone look for in a music wad ? would it be well known midis ? people who compose music ? people who get midis from websites to fit the theme of the level(s) ? or just a music wad where you just want to get some cool midis to compile ? 0 Share this post Link to post
The Ultimate DooMer Posted June 17, 2003 Err....good tunes? It depends what you're after. Some people go for a well-known author (eg. Tolwyn or Mark Klem), I used to get them to put the tunes in other maps (and make compilation music wads), but this one I compiled for Community Chest was designed to fit the maps as well as having a lot of my favourites in. 0 Share this post Link to post
player Posted June 17, 2003 i also compile my favorites , get my faves such as cool ff themes, 007 themes, some star wars themes, i also have das boot and some other ones i compiled a doom 2 music wad , a mix of rock music from the '70s and 80s, more ff music, some star wars music , etc, but if i do make a tc it may be a wad compilation with no particular theme 0 Share this post Link to post
Little Faith Posted June 18, 2003 Actually I would be looking for original works. 0 Share this post Link to post
SyntherAugustus Posted June 18, 2003 I threw in a whole shitload of unreal2k3 songs and listen to them in zdoom. the wad is like 90mb tho. 0 Share this post Link to post
SmellyOgre Posted June 18, 2003 I think the music needs to go with the environment, example if the level is dark and creepy you need scary suspensing music not some techno. 0 Share this post Link to post
player Posted June 18, 2003 for map 7 of doom 2 i used the FF6 boss theme as the theme, imo i feel that this one just for some reason matches the level however for map 30 i used one of the ff 6 final boss themes 0 Share this post Link to post
Derrick Posted June 19, 2003 I managed to find all the good midi versions of the bond themes and the goldeneye music. if you want the zip i can email it to you. 0 Share this post Link to post
gemini09 Posted June 19, 2003 BlackFish ZDoom plays OGG files? U can put OGG files in WADs, or what? 0 Share this post Link to post
Little Faith Posted June 19, 2003 Given the right tools, yep! Perhaps OMGIFOL would be good for this since it is geared on gross handling of lumps. 0 Share this post Link to post
player Posted June 19, 2003 hmm... when i was fooling around with classics.wad or something i noticed that some were protected and cannot be edited 0 Share this post Link to post
NiGHTMARE Posted June 19, 2003 Actually, they were probably just MIDIs (normally Doom wads contain MUS), which most ports now support, but a lot of wad editors (e.g. Wintex) don't recognize properly. 0 Share this post Link to post
