Hey everyone, I’ve been authoring for the past couple of months and people have been saying that I should try and put one up for the C3 database and so, here I am.
Collaboration with Psiven
Sorry I didn’t reply. This one’s picked up by me if nobody else wants to step in, for the Piano Men pack.
Anything that needs to be fixed? I know the overdrive should be a bit different, I’ve put in practice sessions and now the vocal slides are actual slides now.
Here’s the updated version: http://www.mediafire.com/download/v2f53 … GirlV2.RPP

As I said, this would be used for a July release, so I’m not gonna give you feedback right away because we have a few other things we need to tend to before that date. However, the song is in good shape so I don’t expect time consuming fixes (vocals are rough but they shouldn’t be too burdensom to polish).
On a side note, remember that tiers refer to the difficulty a player will have in completing the song. A guitar song with very simple riffs and one short impossible solo will be tiered probably 1 notch up the tiering you would have assigned without that solo.

Understood
” src=”/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/default_SA_smile.gif” /> Though not looking forward to vocals hahaSo, here it is a fixed up RPP file with some minor adjustments, excluding pro keys which need to be redone and vocals which I’ll leave to you for a first pass. The main issue was sustain length: you had too short sustain throughout the bass chart. If in doubt, run the Fix Sustain command from CAT to have them trimmed down to official rules guidelines.
For vocals, the main issue is how you handled harmonies: notes need to have at least 1/64th of space between them. Notes here have probably been copied over from a MIDI without checking their length, which also applies to other instances although to a lesser degree (the G at M29, H2, is a good example). Please do a pass for notes length, starting from harmonies where you have notes touching each other. Don’t just shorten them arbitrarily, listen to where the note ends and trim there. Once all of that is done I’ll do a bit more of polishing.
In the meantime I’ll redo the pro keys chart, which currently has a few timing issues but most importantly a voicing problem: most chords have the wrong root note so while they are in key they don’t sound right.

Would you also share your RPP+audio for Your House too? I know it’s already released and we wouldn’t ask you to pull it but we could be interested in polishing it up and releasing it in a pack.

(I’m assumming that’s what they’re for) Also I would have to pull it eventually when you guys put it up right?

Yes to both.
Yes to both.Might as well, no harm in it
” src=”/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/default_SA_smile.gif” /> So I forgot that I had another copy where I had made a venue (everything but lights). So I copied the venue, fixed the vocals and put it in your one. Should be alot better now. If you don’t like/want the venue feel free to delete it.

OUR HOUSE
Definitely a very good job. I touched up a few things and left a few bits to you.
General
– Your chart begins at the 3 of the measure, it should start on the 1. In this case I just added a couple of time signature changes to make it fit but in the future consider checking when you tempo map that everything is correctly aligned. The audio was also off by roughyhl 20/30 ms, so please re-render the audio from the project or realign your original asset (which I didn’t have). The count-in needs adjusting too. I noticed you had a 116 BPM marker during the count in: remember that that will thro off players a bit because count in will sound slower than the actual tempo.
Bass
– The Yellow, Green, Red you have throughout the song is actually Red, Green, Yellow. I fixed X, can you take care of EMH?
Guitar
– M4.2, that’s what we call “artificial difficulty”. There is no actual need for that slide, you can use a single note or chord, depending on what’s been played.
– M52-56, missing guitar part
Keys
– Remember, no 3-note chords on Hard
Vocals
In general pitches and slides are well done, but you are bit too aggressive with syllable beginnings: ignore hard consonants, hissing sounds and in some cases you are attacking too early some vowels too.
– All lyrics are text event (how did you sneak this one through Magma?)
– H2, M43, why did you unpitch these notes? Were you unsure about the pitches? I’ve fixed them anyway, however you may need to hide H3 though in that spot and you need to change the lyrics to unpitch H2.
– I’ve fixed H1 for timings and a few slides but H2 needs to be fixed accordingly, and H3 too. I would first try to use CAT’s Compact harmonies command on a broad 1/32nd grid level, it might just work in one click, except for the slides added of course.
Good stuff!

I thought it was a bit off. Our House was the very first song I started authoring on, shows how rough I was when I started

I wasn’t sure which one to do. Guess I picked wrong. I KNEW something was missing!

I didn’t even notice it had changed them to text events, it did that in another song of mine but I caught it and re-did it. I’m just as suprised as you are. For the unpitched vocals, I didn’t have a midi for that part. I tried to do it by ear but it was shocking.
you may need to hide H3 though in that spot
I not sure what you mean by that sorry

So H1 is how it should be? I haven’t gotten to install CAT, it’s been a pain to me so I sort of gave up on installing it. I’ll go through make sure H2 and H3 line up right
I’ll start from scratch, do a whole new tempo map and copy/paste the notes back in, making sure they line up right. Just as well I have tomorrow off. Should be able to get this done in a day or two tops

You need to add a $ at the and of each lyric event so that those lyrics will not show up in game. It’s used when 3 different set of lyrics are going on. In this case H3 is the same as H1 but just to be sure I’d hide them anyway.

Do NOT start from scratch.
