Line 2: {{Stendhal Development Meeting 2009-11-22}} == Introduction (needs summary or integrate below) == ~~__TOC__~~ * humana: hey... I want more sound in this game, maybe music!... I thought about a new house... for example a jazz house... there are some musicians (is that the right word) which are playing music... you can do there for example a new quest too ... how do you think about this? Line 29: * humana: like blues and jazz == Types of Music (needs summary) == == File Format (needs summary) == * vomit: in the wiki stood something about ogg * vomit: would flac do it either? Line 59: * tigertoes: i dont think you can get the range in midi files as you can in ogg == Other (needs summary) == * storyteller: no, I think we should not take music from anywhere... Line 89: * plassy: so who did the original sound stuff? == Triggering Background Music (needs summary) == * Oslsachem: there's the question whether music should be played individually for each player or whether it should be associated with the zone... Line 135: * kiheru: maybe eventually osl. first we need something that works * kiheru: just have a "atmosphere" property for the zones that's send to the client▼ * superkym: if you really wanted to make it start at the correct place you'd send what moment in the track to start from but not stream▼ == Multi Account Playing (needs summary) == * humana: what is if you play with 2 accounts? Line 148 ⟶ 151: == Shipping Music Files == * ~~superkym: blackfinix~~ the music ~~itself~~files ~~would~~should be shipped with the client, just like tiles and images are, but as a separate package * streaming is considered to consume too much resources like bandwidth, streaming is not required for synchronizing * superkym: so it does not need to be sent over the network from the server. just the instruction to start playing, stop playing * ~~hendrik: i suggest these steps~~plan: 1. Make mute ~~persitent~~persistent, 2. include the sound files in stendhal-0.xx..zip, 3. include the music files in stendhal-FULL-0.xx..zip▼ * kiheru: as a separate package, I'd prefer * tigertoes: i agree to the separate package... if someone wants music, they can download it separately * superkym: or a FULL client and a client without sounds * Oslsachem: for all the players to listen to the music synchronously, it should be streamed from the server and not stored in the client I guess... * superkym: like we already have * plassy: no... no stream * superkym: Oslsachem i'm really not sure that's necessary * kiheru: no reason to stream. waste of bandwidth ▲* hendrik: i suggest these steps: 1. Make mute persitent, 2. include the sound files in stendhal-0..., 3. include the music files in stendhal-FULL-0... ▲* kiheru: just have a "atmosphere" property for the zones that's send to the client ▲* superkym: if you really wanted to make it start at the correct place you'd send what moment in the track to start from but not stream == Volunteers == * storyteller: ~~Okay,~~and ~~Miasma~~miasma ~~and~~volunteered Ito do the music :)▼ * hendrik: does someone volunteer? * hendrik volunteered to fix /mute and include the sound files into the normal stendhal-0.xx.zip download, so that the music files can go into stendhal-FULL-0.xx.zip * superkym: btw osl you're outside my window. can you come to the table? * ~~hendrik:~~plassy Ivolunteered ~~will~~to ~~fix~~do the ~~/mute~~java ~~thingy.~~coding * ~~hendrik: plassy,~~ it may be a good idea to join [http://stendhal.game-host.org/?id=content/game/chat #arianne] on irc freenode. Please ask there if you have any questions or ~~need some pointing around the Stendhal source code~~issues.▼ * taron: Ronaldo!!! * superkym: thanks, hendrik * storyteller: volunteer for what? ;) * humana: oslachem? * blackfinix: to lead the music commitee? * hendrik: for creating music files, for writing to code to use them. * kiheru: cI donburied under all my tasks already :-( * storyteller: I´ll produce the music :) * hendrik: I think it may be a good idea to just start with two small files for testing, not putting to much time into it until the code works. * plassy: maybi i can help with the music programming * plassy: i only have to look a bit in the java docs * kiheru: the code is the critical part for now, so help for that is very welcome :-) ▲* storyteller: Okay, Miasma and I do the music :) ▲* hendrik: plassy, it may be a good idea to join [http://stendhal.game-host.org/?id=content/game/chat #arianne] on irc freenode. Please ask there if you have any questions or need some pointing around the Stendhal source code.
