The long awaited XX...

I only need 1 of either spc or mml and all will be right with the world

206726

oh yeah i hope for spc

206731

Wow

206735

I'mma bet on FamiStudio, if it doesn't appear I'll give out 500 boons to a random entrant

206736

Winter chip is coming!!! I'd love to see nsf or aym to make a sample based song :o

206737

it feels like famistudio is a spring tracks thing. while nsf is more the winter chip thing.
but maybe we will get surprised!

206743

Will we have OPL2 or OPL3 here? Or both?

206745

or.... or ~adlib~

206746

it's time to write something interesting.

206753

[ ] SPC

You know, I'm interested in giving the Terrific Audio Driver another workout, given that it has fancy new things that I can use!

206789

first 2025 entry in general :D hope tia appears aswell

206792

I look away for a couple of hours and we get 2 new FORMATS??? (pixel and spc)

this is gonna be a wild Jan 1

206809

i might do pc engine for now

206811

awwww yeah

also dang the only one of these formats i’d be interested in is PCE… hope we get some good stuff later down the road

206814

i need snes samples D:

206817

here ya go
arceus!

206818

crossing fingers for pc-x801..

206823

Ask and ye shall receive I guess… was not expecting SNES confirmation that early haha

and @arceus413 if dami’s list somehow doesn’t fill all your needs or you really want .brr’s instead of .wav’s, there’s also a lot of sample packs on SMWCentral here
, ranging from game sample packs to meme sounds and such (some of which just overlap with dami’s list too lol).

206833

don't know what's different about .brr compared to .wav but i downloaded a few of both anyways

206862

FINALLY THE SNES!!! DO YOU KNOW HOW LONG I'VE WAITED TO COMPETE IN THIS FORMAT? IMBOUTTAMAKEANAMEFORMYSELF

206864

@necari: looks good

206883

winter chip my beloved. msgs time haha jk

unless.

206920

i get to spend more time on a pc98 entry finally,, also shoutout to msgs

206942

WHY ARE WE GETTING FORMATS SO EARLY HOLY FUC

puke slow downnn

207005

i'm hoping for aym obviously

207130

mariopaint and sms would also be dope

207142

gameboy when

actually i might try midi, always wanted to give it a shot

207144

norg

207189

also backing sms

also also, suggesting msx+

207192

thinking about winter chip vs summer chip customs, i'd say aym is more suited to winter chip and msx+ suited to summer chip, since the latter usually includes a lot more fuller stuff (such as nsf+). we definitely need a bit of that though for sure...

207211

Hey im sorta new to this. Can i just submit whatever in terms of like original music or do i have to follow a theme?

207212

there's no theme requirement! the main requirement is that you can't submit anything that's been previously released somewhere

207283

thinking about making another megalo for my snes entry, earthbound brrs :D

dunno how i'd do slide notes with the vst though

207287

@arceus413,

slide notes with the c700 vst are hard to do, buuut... it is doable. Here's how to do it in fl studio

step 1:
donload bendy vst: https://blog.wonthelp.info/2021/12/03/bendy-an-fl-studio-plugin-for-using-piano-roll-bends-panning-etc-in-third-party-vst-plugins/

it allows you to do slide notes and you can map its midi ccs

step 2 (optional):
donload brso articulate: https://www.syntheticorchestra.com/tools/articulate/

mapping its articulations to program changes allows you to make drumkits more easily

step 3:
open FL studio and assign the c700 vst a midi input (I always use 2)

step 4:
import your instruments to c700

step 5:
make copies of bendy vst or BRSO articulate for each channel on c700. Make sure the midi channels are assigned correctly

step 6:
set pitch bend range

step 7:
profit

edit:

pitch bending takes up A LOT of space so be sure to export to .smc instead of .spc

207349

i think we need a little bit of tinymod up in here

mod16k?

207360

can we have mod43k

207607

mod56k when

207608

throwing in a request for ansi

207955

would like to see mt32

207991

hwoops i just durn did double the number of formants count

207993

wait opl2, bytebeat AND sn7? (and more)

nah we eating good tonight fellas

207994

more formats are cool :3

207995

Which one should I conquer?

208006

television interface adapter... and sms :D

208035

Expecting MSX+ and OPL3 in case way more formats are added

208072

teletext would be cool! :)

208092

me when fm synthesis (it is the only thing i have a firm grasp on)

208149

still waiting for wildchip 😭

208159

once again, i will try to submit at least one tune :>

208164

⚫ bytebeat1k
⚫ nsfc
⚫ the modxk hiding behind the curtain over there
and then perhaps
⚫ chipbattleart
⚫ opl2
⚫ spc

208168

@SnugglyBun
that's for next one or two week I think
consider trying other formats available that you haven't heard of

208180

yea i know. i wasn't saying it should be right now, more like i was waiting for the possibility that it could happen.
i have ideas for both SPC and PC Engine entries rn at least.

edit: also i forgot to clarify that i will start university on february, so my time will be way more limited coming forward. i was really annoying about wildchip because i would like to submit an entry before the start of my uni course

208270

here's hoping some oops formats make a resurgence

208272

wish i just had like an isolated weekend in the deep dank woods to just fuckin shit out winter chip entries for all the formats i wanna do. anyway best case scenario

[ ] chip battle art
[ ] NSF Classic
[ ] MSGS MIDI
[ ] pixel

atleast hoping i can do a chip battle art and midi entry

208524

working hard on smth right now...

208634

question on ANSI format:

What about using different fonts? In PabloDraw and also in Moebius it is possible to choose a font. Different fonts result in different visual results and also in different aspect ratios of the image. Is there a standard font to use in this battle or am I free to use the font that fits my needs?

208670

may aswell make my own todo list:

[ ] sms
[ ] nsfc
[ ] bytebeat1k
[ ] pixel (but with extra dimension)
[ ] TIA
[ ] chip battle art

208778

oh voting is on in entry period

208782

yay it's voting time ^~^

208820

@Ahornberg

long story short, so long as it opens in pablodraw or moebius and the render is consistent, you can use any font you want that's in either of those programs. if someone were to view it in dos, this would probably be a different story, so i'll update this comment in case what i say here gets outdated by a future decision

208821

my only input to the question is that i don't think paid fonts should be allowed, and ideally it should be something common or easily accessible

thinking especially about how an ansi ohb would work in that case, you'd want to be pretty sure your entry would appear correct or at least mostly correct for the other voters

208822

@damifortune: ??? afaik you cannot import fonts into either pablodraw or moebius. the only option is "View > Change Font"

208888

if the only font options are built-in then that's perfect

209038

there are other ansi font options other than code page 437?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_page_437

there are definitely different sizes like 8x8 and 9x14

209042

in Moebius only the fonts listet under IBM PC are code page 473 but they come in 4 different sizes: 8x8, 8x14, 8x16, 8x19

209047

list of formats i want to do in no particular order:

[ ] MSGS
[ ] NSFc
[ ] OPL2
[ ] SNES?
[ ] pixel?
[ ] sgen?

209099

updates:
- tried to make a snes entry, first a breakcore one then a more relaxed dnb one. i gave up because both attempts sounded like shit, but i might try again.
- tried to make a sega genesis entry too, but it also didn't sound like how i wanted it to be and i wasn't feeling inspired to try more stuff there
- i didnt make a pc engine entry yet.
- still waiting for wildchip and other formats

209101

perhaps i've treated fm too harshly, i will attempt to do opl2 :)

209103

cool formats i may or may not do

[x] sgen
[ ] nsfc
[ ] mideez
[ ] spc (working on dis one)
[ ] chip_battleart
[ ] pee see ninety eight (maybe)
[ ] opl2 (maybe? i already did one for oops!)
[ ] tia (maybe)
[ ] sms (also maybe, i already did an sgen entry, which is close enough)

if i actually finish all of these, ill go for ansi ;P

209144

we need Mario paint, and vic20...
and probably anything that can be done in mpt?
like... mod24k? or 48? or s3xm0d1t? o.O

209150

we need a bytebeat1k entry

209151

lol
hopefully somebody will submit a better bytebeat1k entry eventually, i really am bad at that stuff

209174

i need pet or vic20,,

209193

fsound would also be dope
