DKC Atlas Forum

Wow, great work here! :D The levels/bonus stages I've played so far were all well designed and fun to play. There's a lot of good ideas in here. Animal buddies are used really well. The MIDI music was a little disappointing, although I'm not sure how Game Maker works and if it allows other formats. ...

Alright, here are your hit simples: http://www.tindeck.com/listen/eyhs http://www.tindeck.com/listen/mpfu http://www.tindeck.com/listen/vbko Let me know when you've got them so I can take them off. If you want to do the boss remix the same way, you'd probably be better off keeping the samples you've...

Oh, I thought I was doing the full track for each instrument you needed, exporting each instrument you needed as a seperate audio file and sending them to you so you could put them together. I can get you the orch hit sound by just sending the one note but to get somewhat realistic orchestral sample...

Sure, if I can find one. I'll need a MIDI for that too. I like the one you've got at the moment though.

Yeah, I think advertising on OCR's Recruitment board is a good idea, but we'll need some kind of demo first. Either the compilation of short clips like we planned before (we'll make that anyway at some point for this site) or we could choose 1 or 2 full tracks to show. I'll have to think about that ...

I read somewhere that they're not including any water levels in this game either.They said the water levels in the original games were 'too slow' or something. I can't remember where I found it though.

Updates! :D Lampje sent me a completed Gangplank Galleon remix a while ago, and I forgot to mark it as finished on the list. I've fixed that now. I completely forgot about the gameover theme before. I think there's enough material in there for it to be remixable, so I'll add it to the list. Here it ...

Krem Quay for me too. I didn't really like the swamp levels, Glimmer's Galleon or Slime Climb. Although it does have my favorite level in it (Rattle Battle). Also Glimmer's Galleon is pretty fun if you use Squitter (with codes).

Some more teasers have been released!
Interview
Some more previews of some of the tracks
Both links also feature the front cover art.

Actually I've changed computers so I don't have it anymore. But I can still upload it somewhere and PM you.

Just send them to me and Qyzbud. ;) We're almost done with the intro for Gangplank Galleon, finally.. Even though Sockpuppet did work on something, we tried it ourselves too ^^ Can still change it later on ofcourse! Expect Gangplank to be finished and green(!) this week! Good to hear, Lampje! I gues...

Gnawzooka wrote:Seriously? Meta Ridley's music is crap in my opinion, the Brawl Ridley Theme is vastly superior.

I prefer Brawl's too, but I didn't list it because it's not used in a Metroid game. Meta Ridley's theme is my favorite Metroid game arrangement.

I just know I'll forget some, but here goes:

Last Battle (Cave Story)
Boss theme 2 (Jazz Jackrabbit 2)
02 (Kirby 64)
Primal Dialga (Pokemon Mystery Dungeon 2)
Meta Ridley (Metroid Prime)

I've got a lot more but that's all I can remember. I'll edit it if any more come to me.

Koindozer Klamber for me too. Also, the GBA version of Springing Spiders is a lot harder than the SNES version, mostly due to the slow camera, so that's probably tied with KK for me.

I found the official Japanese album here . If you click the 'Japanese' tab you can see the tracklist, and there's also some pictures of the album to the right which confirm that that is indeed what it really says on the album. Each track is given a Japanese name and an English name which doesn't mat...

I deleted my crappy Mine Cartastrophe ReMix and started from scratch. No, it's not a piano mix, but I feel that I should post a short demo here before I get too far to make sure I'm going in a direction people are happy with. http://tindeck.com/image/qigh/stats.png It's far from finished, and that b...

Believe it or not, this could actually be a good thing for us too. I heard that because of the hint system in NSMBW, Nintendo decided they were able to make the game harder. And unless I just suck, they certainly did make it quite hard. I'm only up to World 4 and the game's already offered me the Su...

My top 3 from each are:

DKC:
Ice Cave Chant
Forest Frenzy
Aquatic Ambiance

DKC2:
In a Snow-Bound Land
Stickerbrush Symphony
Mining Melancholy

DKC3:
Cavern Caprice
Treetop Tumble
Pokey Pipes

DKC3 GBA:
Bonus Time
Rockface Rumble
Water World

Hell yeah, we're living a year in the future!

:lol: I know what you mean cfh. My old 'remixes' (or 'unoriginal covers') are full of mistakes and general weirdness. Good thing I've improved, some of them sounded horrible. @Kong-Fu - Maybe everyone is afraid it will screw up their computers like it did to the other 2 or 3 people who attempted it....

I'm not sure. I haven't got as many tracks as I would've liked. We might try for New Years Day instead.

Added all of them.

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but how do I open the smv file?

Alright, I'll edit those in too. I'm really curious though: how do you do Barrel Bayou? I've tried everything I can think of to get past the barrel pairs (including taking Rambi past his sign and jumping off mid-flight, which doesn't actually work) and I couldn't find anything. Also we should wait f...

Edited my list. So that makes the entire first world possible without glitches.

You can make it to the exit of the cabin of Rattle Battle as long as you leave some of the Flitters alive. One of the jumps involves jumping on one while carrying the other Kong and throwing them after the boost it gives. Krazy Kremland Hornet Hole - Untested Target Terror - No Bramble Scramble - No...

Alright, new topic in the forum guys:

http://z6.invisionfree.com/DKC_Remix_Pr ... owtopic=13

Discuss!

Aww, that's a shame. I'll see if I can come up with something for Forest Frenzy. I hope to see you back for the next project.

I'm thinking of releasing a preview of the project on or around Christmas. So try and get as much work done as you can everyone.

EDIT: For those who don't have the 7 minute Kong in Concert version (different from the OCR version), here's a link . I can kinda hear what you're talking about, but I just had another listen to it after hearing the original, and I may have found some more connections. I'll use your code: Green = N...

Sure, but I'll need the WIP before I give you the claim.

Certainly. Thank you very much!

I just got it! :D It's awesome! And it's actually really challenging: it's nowhere near as easy as you'd expect to solve some puzzles. Plus to 100% it you have to find 4 different solutions to each puzzle. There's also plenty of levels (around 220 I believe). You can summon Longcat, Tacgnol and Keyb...

Here. Although I'm not sure your version of FL can use them. They're all soundfonts.

I'm clearing Simian Segue, Cave Dweller Concert, Voices of the Temple and Treetop Rock. So now anyone can claim them, but only if they send a WIP. Sorry guys, but you're way over the WIP date. I found (or re-found, as they were in my bookmarks) some really nice samples, including orchestral and indu...

...WOW! This is just one reason why Rare's musicians are awesome! Now I really can't wait!

Sorry for yet another double post.
I was just sitting in class today when, completely out of nowhere, I realized the backing of 'Let it Be' (The Beatles) is extremely similar to Bonus Room Blitz. Or is this just 'D. Wise fanboy syndrome' kicking in again?

I'm pretty sure that question is answered somewhere in this topic, but to reiterate: They make everything cluttered and harder to read, and just provoke an all around unproffesional feeling. Perhaps we might change our minds down the road, but right now we just don't like Sigs. Wouldn't there be an...

Oh yeah, another one was released a while ago and I forgot to post it here. Oops. Monkeys Disarm your Kremlings (NekoFrog, Oinkness) And lyrics. This is usually the kind of music I don't like much but... I really like it. :D It's also got snippets of Gangplank Galleon and Stickerbrush Symphony.

Haha! OK I won't. I've got a few ideas, but that was just one of the more... interesting ones. Maybe I'll do an alt. version as a bonus or something.

I'm tempted to make Mine Cart Madness a piano-only piece. Yea or nay?
(Yes, I'm being serious)

Oh hi there Emunator! Good to see you here! I'll wait 'til I've heard a WIP before I put you on the list and give you the forum password.

Finally heard from OverClocked! http://www.ocremix.org/forums/showthread.php?t=25315 It got rejected (understandably) 'cos of the production and repetition. But that's OK because it means I can now submit the much better Life in the Mines arrangement I'm doing for the Atlas remix project. :D

By the way, in case anyone isn't checking the WIP forums, I've posted an update on my LITM track.

I'm a bit late as well... but Happy Birthday Qyzbud! I found this awesome cake which doesn't seem to want to show up properly, so here's a link:

Damn it! :x That really sucks. Ah well, just do what you can, and take your time if you need to. In other news, we're now calling everything "remixes" instead of "ReMixes." Which reminds me, we still need a name for the album. Suggestions so far (tell me if I missed one): Gorilla...

Another one (sort of)! Again, this isn't actually inspiration, but something else by David Wise. This time, it was composed after the trilogy. There's an unused track that Rare left in Diddy Kong Racing. I believe you can hear it in the hidden soundtest. Youtube vid The whole song will probably remi...

I agree, it is going great! I'd still like to help out in some way too.

I might have fixed the problem. I found out the forum was completely invisible to some people and changed it. If the forum asks for your name and password, enter your user name and the password you chose. When you try to enter the secret forum, it should only ask for a password. That's when you ente...

Anyone interested in helping with the Gangplank Collab? Maybe a stolen idea, but perhaps fun if many people did their part on it :) I agree, a megacollab would be great! I'll see if I can come up with anything. I'm not very good at making dance though. I guess I'll send you some ideas and you can a...

I haven't set any new dates yet, so just as soon as you can. I'll PM you the forum password.

Nice. I 'd.

EDIT: O.K, my first WIP is up! Go and review it on the forums please.
