* mp3 is problematic
* miasma: we could take midi-files.
* midi
* vomit: in the wiki stood something about ogg
** midi-files can be repeated the whole time aren't so big files and you can make them easy at home
* vomit: would flac do it either?
** midi and linux may be a problem
* vomit: i have one ambient track but it's in mp3
** midi would have a retro touch, like lufia or secret of mana or sth.
* miasma: midi-files can be repeated the whole time aren't so big files and you can make them easy at home
* ogg
* blackfinix: convert it to ogg
** midi files can be converted
* blackfinix: ogg is open source
** prefered by many people
* blackfinix: flac is open source
** cannot get the range in midi files as you can in ogg
* kiheru: with flac we would get rather large download sizes
* miasma: i'm for midi-files.
* vomit: flac would just be the source
* superkym: i'm pretty sure the wiki says what specifications we have, doesn't it say oggs?
* vomit: you could downsample it then for your own desired size
* blackfinix: a midi composition would work miasma. but i am not sure if he game can handle them
* plassy: midi and linux isn't a good idea
* humana: midi...
* blackfinix: if it was midi it would definitely have a retro sound to the game :)
* vomit: i think it should be ogg
* storyteller: do you think about 8-bit music?
* blackfinix: yes ogg is best bet
* storyteller: retro style? ;)
* plassy: full ack to ogg
* miasma: i think a retro touch like lufia or secret of mana or sth. is not bad for a game like these
* storyteller: thats right miasma
* vomit: but midis are tooooo oldschool
* miasma: i could try to make midi-files. thanks to guitar pro :D
* tigertoes: i dont think you can get the range in midi files as you can in ogg
