By the way Zebra I sent you a dropbox link with some of my abandoned/unreleased stuff, not sure if you were able to receive it or if the PM system didn't work again o.oa

I did! things have been busy so I've been sluggish getting around to it, but I will!

Had some fun with "arps"! Here's what I have so far:

The vocal samples are kinda just random filler. And I'm not entirely sure what to do with the build up in the 2nd half of the song, I was gonna lead it into another drop but it didn't seem to want to do that ._.a

This is dope! For sure, every one of those tracks in the folder is there because I didn't know where to go with them, but I like where you went.

Ah, ok. Btw you didn't PM me yet!

I didn't? I wonder if it didn't send. How about now?

I mentioned it in the music thread, but I thought I might as well post it here too. I released another electronic EP under my Elk Bird moniker:

Thanks! I use Reaper as my DAW. I've dabbled in Logic and Live, but I'm definitely a Reaper guy.

Metal's definitely a lot harder to produce I think. I've only recently made some great strides in making decent metal production, which is a lot of fun now.

For a collab, I think there's a couple of approaches that would work: one would be to send partial ideas and have the other person add layers in a turn-wise fashion. This tends to involve a decent amount of coordination.

The other approach that I though worked really well the time I tried it, was each person sends tracks/snippets that they've abandoned or gotten stuck on. The other person then takes those and does whatever with them, then sends them back. Some of the really cool results from this kinda thing are when someone takes a track and samples it/warps it into something totally different. Or sometimes just adds layers. It's more open and unstructured that way.

Ah. I suppose I'd forgotten that there's already ways to render Dwarf Fortress in 3D! Or isometric 2D, which is still pretty much 3d lol. With a reference like that, I found myself just copying the stonesense picture and not really adding much personal touch to it. Oops lol.

If people are still interested, I've changed the general idea of what I'm looking for to end up with better results, and also to not waste anybody's time! :O

But I did do a little on it. Pretty standard blockout stuff just to get the shape without much detail. Scene's a bit larger in scope than the original ambitions; I was looking for something a bit more zoomed in and personal so, I've changed the initial post to reflect that

Thanks! It looks super cool though. I'll keep this thread in mind for when I come across some details that need a scene.

Also as mentioned below; That is definitely a lovely fort!

This makes me really excited to try the new release once I have some time for it!

Interesting. I'd believe it could work.

So, is it the case that you con't reach other civs even when they are listed as reachable in the embark screen?
