Music atmosphere

Dazz · Before February 2015

I know this will never be an option on EE, because of copyright laws unfortunately. but I can't stop to imagine how cool would be if we could emit music in our levels to create a certain atmosphere, imagine a Halloween level, with some effects, or imagine a romantic art level, or just listen some random music together, without being able to abuse the sistem. what do you think? I think even stairs levels would be fun to play (jk)

Oh yes. I can imagine it now. Rainbow Minigames with Nyan Cat playing in the background X3

SpamGirl has a point. And there is the copyright. But there's no copyright on sites like www.newgrounds.com/audio/. (This next part would kill Chris if he ever read it) As long as you don't charge people to listen to it, that is.

I don't know how the legality would work out even with noncommercial licensing from NG. Because Beta is paid, technically people would be paying to listen to the music, even if that isn't the reason they bought it. Chris would have to contact and make legal arrangements with each individual artist whose song he wanted to use. It'd be a lot easier to take submissions from the community or get original (or already made) songs by RPG.

Don't make it beta-only is what I was sayin' dere.

I was just thinking of this when I was playing my guitar yesterday. I thought about how cool it would be if I could record something I play on the guitar and have it play in the game. I made up 3 or 4 cool little "spooky" sounding riffs that I thought would be perfect for the Halloween contest.

Still, the game is commercialized through Gems. Even if the music is free to listen to, being part of a commercial game may still require consent from the artist. I don't know enough about these kinds of matters to say for sure though.

how about a composer sistem ? like on cellphones.

Spamgirl... that sounds lovely.

Anyways, the other issue with music is people might upload songs with profane language. I need not name any, but there are plenty of songs with the F-word, and the N-word, which is

A) A bad influence on little kids

and

B) Could cause civil, or even perhaps violent disputes. Perhaps someone plays a religious tune, and a strong hearted atheist enters the level. Perhaps someone is playing a profane tune, and a stingy old lady type person comes in.

My point is that it their wouldn't be just copyright infringement issues, it would also cause social issues, and (possibly) economic for Chris, if people quit because of the music selection.

1) You can only upload your own music.

2) Must agree to some special agreement saying that once you upload your music, Chris now part-owns it or something

3) No lyrics at all.

4) Music must be approved by admin/moderator prior to being added to creator's "music list"

5) Anything else?

yes I totally agree, we all know this is not going to happen tomorrow or anytime soon, so..besides Im obsessed with rules, especially for kids, I hate when they are exposed to...well...bad influence. But still you can't say this is not something you would enjoy, as a option on EE.

I see nothing wrong with this, except:

Nub levels = Nub music.

99% of ee = Nubs

99% of music on ee = Nub music

amount of players leaving > amount of players staying

Calicara · Before February 2015

I would most definitely enjoy this feature just as much as the next person, but, like everything else cool, there is just too many ways to abuse it.

My only suggestion is if Chris added pre-made music. But then he would have to make the tracks, get music players, and it would just be a ton of work. But is Chris ever gets around to such notions I would rather enjoy listening to music seasonally

Or we could have administrator's approve user-made music before letting them use it in game.

But, or course knowing Chris, he wouldn't want to go through the trouble of hiring music moderators, so being the lazy man he is, he would just hire someone, or just RPGMaster2000, to make pre-made tracks.

RPGMaster2000 makes great music, he could discuss with Chris about this, maybe they agree
