*bump* updates

Ran into an issue with the environment engine and properly displaying things depending on if Nanami is in front of or behind them. Thinking about using the Interaction Map to govern this but I'd have to be constantly checking a shed-tonne of pixels...

[edit]Also, if I go with this, I will be consolidating the environment bitmaps into one single bitmap as Nanami will be displayed above or below it as necessary.[/edit]

Also, Nanami Chapter of Yumé: The Eternal Dreams is now officially my class project for my Computer Based Methods and Modeling class (fancy name for "Let's Learn ANSI C, mmkay?"). I only say Nanami Chapter is because I don't know if I can get all the way through Nanami AND Rika Chapter in 2/3 of a semester. I know for a fact I CAN'T finish through Finality Chapter in this time period.

Sorry to hear about the issues TsukasaZX. Good luck. Also JustCause are you planning to post some music in the music section btw? It would be cool to hear.

It'd be cool to have a Yume Soundtrack "CD" somewhere.

somewhere, do you mean the stores? lol

Actually, I'm without a sequencer at the moment. Lack of admin access tends to do that. I'll post some previews soon though. I've been working on the main theme, I think you guys'll like it.

Big edit:
The quality sucks and I miss a few notes, but I've attached my mellow piano version of the main theme. (I've got about 50 arrangements of this song, b/c my favorite game music trick *ever* is reprising the main theme. The actual theme is much more deep and complex than what you hear here, the issue is replicating a 90-piece orchestra with a keyboard and shaky hands )

Hey that's nice JustCause It would fit pretty well in Yumé IMHO. Maybe higher quality would be better, although it would be hard without a sequencer. Plus with a sequencer you must find proper piano sounds.

And sorry to hear TsukasaZX. I hope to see new progress soon

Unfortunately I'm not good with sequencers, but if you have a good computer, I would get FL Studio demo + audacity. The demo offers everything except saving your projects and audacity will let you record your work. However, it's not easy to get used to IMHO. Personally I use MTVMG+PS1 emu, but that's a major PITA to record music on recent computers.

Otherwise there's Lmms, which I haven't tried, but is a freeware sequencer. As for VST plugins, if you need some, I think there's an old music topic from 2008 where Necro posted some free ones. Not sure if the links are still working, though.

Wut?

Hopefully it's not too hard to get used to. I seriously need to give it a try at one point.

Weird. Maybe they accidentally it. I remember using some softwares before where specific things were unnecessarily slow. An example is the maintenance menu in the Casio Prizm or Avant Browser's history list.
