testman Posted March 15, 2014 Posted March 15, 2014 One of things I find missing to make this game uber-epic is lack of C&C music. C&C franchise is known for it's good music, and I think this game should be no different. Did devs think about adding C&C-like music? I know that there are a lot of sound effects and player commands to listen to, but so was in RTS C&C games, and music did not interfere with that. With getting actual soundtrack from any of C&C games there would also be legal problems, so I think that C&C-like music would be just fine. Unless we ask Frank Klepacki if he has some free time to make something for us Quote
Malt Posted March 16, 2014 Posted March 16, 2014 The C&C soundtrack was the hypest shit. It took 1990s geopolitical warfare to Funkytown with a lot of kick ass on the way. When I first started Renegade X, I was pretty disappointed that the music didn't have the same feel. It feels like it's too modern or trying hard to sound like the gritty FPSs we have now. I hope the finished game improves on this, but if not, I don't mind just running VLC in the background. Quote
Trev-MUN Posted March 16, 2014 Posted March 16, 2014 Dude, I would totally ask Frank if he could lend his mad skillz for a Renegade soundtrack. There is, however, an official soundtrack, which I found while looking at ModDB after being pointed that way in an earlier thread: http://www.moddb.com/games/renegade-x/d ... gade-x-ost As it stands, though, when I play I actually make a point of putting on music from Tiberian Dawn, Tiberian Sun, Renegade, and remixes thereof (including the Renegade-X soundtrack). I've actually wondered if the devs had certain songs in mind when they were designing maps. Tiberian Dawn's Rain in the Night, for example, goes really well with Mesa. When playing Walls, I usually put on Pharoteknical or one of the remixes thereof. And on Whiteout, I listen to March to Doom. Quote
Drury Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 I like Mr. Bonder's work - the person behind main menu theme and release date trailer theme. I wouldn't mind seeing what else he could come up with. Quote
Maderas Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 I tend to put Act on Instinct on repeat while I play. Quote
Jam Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 We are formally releasing a new soundtrack compilation with the next patch, but it's already available on YouTube and other websites. YouTube playlist: Download: http://renegade-x.com/downloads/Renegade%20X%20OST.rar Torrent: https://kickass.to/renegade-x-original- ... 81556.html Quote
PermaGrin Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 I recall asking Frank long ago about a custom track. At that time it would have cost $$$ based on his workload. Maybe we can try poking him again. Quote
Trev-MUN Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 How much was he asking for? Maybe it could be crowdfunded! Quote
XD_ERROR_XD Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 How much was he asking for? Maybe it could be crowdfunded! Remember that the developers are not allowed to recieve any cash from anyone when it comes to donations. Although... You could contact Frank himself and ask if he could make a song for you, which the developers could then use in the game. Quote
Trev-MUN Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 Remember that the developers are not allowed to recieve any cash from anyone when it comes to donations. What about a crowdfunding operation managed by someone not in Totem Arts? The money would be going to Frank anyway ... Quote
