pathfinder 0 Posted March 4, 2002 Im trying to make an ofp( Apocalypse Now) game just for fun. But I need a little info on making an MP3 of "Ride Of The Valkyries" into a useable song for the game. Also is there a way to make the music emanate from one chopper? And has a useable bridge ever been made into an object yet? Any site where I could find this info would be much appreciated. Thank you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Adstar 0 Posted March 4, 2002 Please refer to the letter posted on March the 4th titled "Fixed dynamic range 1.42" posted in the forun. There are no bridges created becouse there are no rivers in OFP becouse of the lack of computing power in todays technology. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CarolCray 0 Posted March 4, 2002 game? you mean a Campaign? The only way to do it (right) is too wait for the Vietnam MoD. You just can't fake Huey's with UH-60's. Besdies 90% of the movie is based on the boat ride up river... I'm praying the Vietnam MoD will take Ebud's Jungle and incorperate rivers and streams for the PBR's. I've been thinking of a single mission of this movie for sometime. -cutscene- 2am... PBR's floating upstream at idle speed... spotlight slowly scanning the banks, left, right, left, right... comming into veiw standing shoulder to shoulder hundreds of clad white warriors lining the bank... motionless... -musicfade- ...this is the end... my only friend... the end... -endcut- Using KEG's Arctic soldiers this could look quite errie:) I dunno about emulating from a single chopper but makeing and using a Mp3 is easy. This is what I do... 1) Buy the CD 2) Record the song in Mp3 in atleast 44hz/16bits/Stereo 3) Re-Record the the track in .wav format @22hz/16bit/Mono 4) Drop and Drag the .wav into Fish's OGG converter. I use Mono cuz it makes a huge difference in the size of the wav file. Plus I only use full tracks for long PBR or Heli rides so technically the music you hear is supposed to be comming from your headset... ie.. it's supposed to sound a bit odd:) Once converted to OGG a 3:30 song comes out just over 1meg.

pathfinder 0 Posted March 5, 2002 Thanks guys , as far as the game goes it's just for fun not a mod, since I have no skill at all when it comes to editing( except basic). This is the first game that ever pushed me into wanting to learn I used a wsscod to turn the wav into wss but I don't know what to do next. The song is just a little over 5 min long, and I'd like it to overpower at least some of the droning of the chopper noise. It's a slightly diffrent from the song in the movie, as the women screaming isn't in it And as the for bridges. I saw what looked like small bamboo ones inside the MAYAN TEMPLE addon, they look big enough for a jeep. I was wanting to connect the small land mass that sticks out near morton to the town. It wont't be anexact translation but Im not looking for one, just learning the ropes. Thx 4 the help Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DarkTerritory3 0 Posted March 6, 2002 I did the "We were soldier once" ( New movie with mel gibson )mission with about more than 100 vietcong all around you and moving toward you. You can`t really move because you are maybe 20 men defending your site. Anyway if someone is interested let me know. Hamburger hill should be cool too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
