Hello,
Both SFC1 and SFA(Starfleet Academy) have their music composed by the same composer. I have the music of SFC1, but does any one still have the SFA soundtracks?
Thanks,
You-Cheng Hsieh

Well, you could always try looking on the SFA cd for the files themselves. Older games tend to have them very accessible. Other means thereby illegal could be used to, but I'm sure I'll be frowned upon for even mentioning it.

Thank you. I'll try if I can do something about it. I have the Game disc somewhere...
-
I had a link for a zip file that had the mp3s for SFA and SFC1, but I can't find it right now :-\ ... will have to get back to you.
-
I might have these as well, will have to check at home.
-
The generic in-mission tunes from SFC1 (the same as the SFA tunes) are at ftp://www.dynaverse.net/sfc1/Uploads/SFC1music.zip
Unfortunately, I don't think the race music is around, because it was on Fileplanet.
-
They aren't on my hard drive but I should have them on disc somewhere... (I found the playlist but not the files)
-
I have the SFA music as mp3 files - about 46Mb. What's the best way to get it to you? (I can only upload 10Mb to my website). I d/l'ed it from someplace - if I can figure out where I'll send the link.
I also have all of the SFC1 music (as mp3 and aiff) if anyone's looking.

Probably the best option would be to upload it to RapidShare, MediaFire, 4shared, a similar site where you can post it online for a short while.
Then share the link(s) in here, and people can grab them. The could be a short term solution, with a longer term solution being they be uploaded to one of the main sites (Filefront, Battleclinic, maybe even that place called dynaverse.net.. :)

Thanks Atheorhaven.
Here's the link for the SF Academy music.

I'll try to get this up onto Battleclinic if there's enough interest. Anyone interested in the music for SFC1 as well?
-
yes, please upload it and post the link

Posted the SFC 1 music on Battleclinic in twp parts. It's missing the "Lyran Start" music for now. It's in the "Scripts/Tools" section.

Thanks, this is good stuff.
-
TAnimal,
Thank you for posting these. I have two questions though; are some of these files duplicative? and Where is Lyran start music?
KF
-
yea what happened to the lyran start music?
thanks for the rest tho
-
No repeats in the SFC1 music, as I can see. Just repetitve themes?
I think I originally d/loaded these tracks from the Taldren site, and they had been missing the "Lyran Start" track back then. If I can crank up the laptop later with SFC1 on it, I'll try to grab that one and add it on.
-
thanks bro :)
-
I'm surprised that nobody remember Starfleet Universe now...

-
you're right, there it is. Has the "Lyran Mission Start" track, too. Thanks.
-
it seems windows media player doesn't recognize the (.) mp3 and none of the freeware converters will open it because of the (.) any suggestions?
-
there are a lot of freeware .mp3 programs out there. Quicktime is one of the most useful free apps for audio/video, and I recommend Quicktime Pro for any and all who ever need to convert files; for $30, you can do all sorts of playback/conversions . There's wmv plugin for it as well.
-
OK, a thousand apologies everyone. I do my day work on a Mac, and use that as my storage site for all my SFC files. When I uploaded the SFC1 music it appended the *.mp3 with garbage that makes it unplayable in windows media player et. al. (maybe when I zipped it?) It didn't effect the SFA music, even though I did the same thing with those files.
Anyway, I'll correct the SFC1 music on battleclinic later today. Sorry for the inconvenience. (The SFC1 music there will play with Quicktime and iTunes for now.)
-
NP bro, and thanks :)
-
I re-loaded the SFC1 music onto Battleclinic, for anyone that's interested. In two parts; it also has the "Lyran Mission Start" track that was missing before.
-
Excellent, heading there now :thumbsup:

I started playing around with SFC-EAW/OP music tracks too. I unzipped the music file and started assembling the pieces into complete tracks. As many of you probably know, the music is collected into smaller chunks - 4-5 seconds - and is written so that these chunks can bridge from one theme to another. I'm going to try to create a playlist of "complete" songs for my own perusal, but if anyone else is interested, I'll upload them when I get it further along.
Tangentally, I'm trying to replace the off-the-shelf OP music with my own tracks, but having trouble with WinZip. I've set my compression to "none" (and turned off the read-only attribute on the files), but no joy. Pretty sure it's a WinZip problem, 'cause I took the original OP music tracks that I backed up and tried to recompress-with-no-compression, but those didn't work either. (Backed-up "sfcmusic.zip" does work, tho)
Any thoughts would be appreciated.

don't use the "Add" button use the "Add with wildcards" with NO commpression instead.

I don't have EAW/OP installed now. What audio format do they use?
If they use mp3 like SFC3, read here:

No EAW/OP use .wav's only
Bit Rate: 705kbps
Audio Sample size: 16bit
Channels: 2(stereo)
Audio Sample rate: 22kHz
Audio Format: PCM

Thanks much for the tips - my problem turned out to be operator error ( I was putting the wavs into a folder and then zipped the folder. d'oh. You have to zip the wavs INTO a file called "sfcmusic.zip"). I've replaced a few tracks and am continuing to replace some more; at some point I'll put out for people to hear.
btw, does anyone know how forgiving the game is with different music? So far I've been replacing tracks more or less 1-to-1; that is, putting a new 40 second track where there was a 40 second track previously. If I make my modified music.zip too big, will it slow the game down? Or will it be ok as long as I keep the wavs at 705kb, stereo 22k?
-
keep the wavs at the correct size you should be able to replace all of it as i have done it in the past with small tracks it does work but very teedius (spelling).
