I would like to make some plugins. but i miss some documentation (not about lua but the different classes and variables i can access)
Hi! for the background music I suggest “Giovanni Allevi – Back To Life”: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TFIBFd3gKHE
we look forward to 1.1 final version, very compliments! Greetings from Ultrastar Italia forum
Hey Gio18,
we are not allowed to use his music because it’s licensed by sony music entertainment / universal and therefore cannot be altered or distributed freely by us.
But of course you could replace our background music with his song on your own.
@sebastian: there’s a small plugin description available and plugins can be viewed with a standard text editor to see some functions which can be used. But of course there will be a better documentation (but currently our webhosting server has some problems…)
How about the instrumental from one of the advertised free songs? Maybe even mix them all at once?
I really like the idea of mixing some of our free songs.
Actually I thought of using an instrumental version from one of our future songs.
“Webhosting:
Sadly the upload system still doesn’t work. It’d be great if this could be fixed because it’s needed to finish the brand new documentation.”
what does this actually mean? whats the upload system?
Forum and Wiki upload systems doesn’t work atm.
A necessary php tmp folder which can only be accessed by our webhoster seems to exceed the quota
or has changed it’s chmod, so we can’t do a thing about it, sadly.
so we need a new webhoster basically?
Background music:
Brad Sucks – Dropping Out of School
Well, UltraStar is a program to sing Music, why not use the Music, that comes inside Ultrastar? Maybe something like a jukebox, that plays the music, thats used inside the game. And a link down in one corner would be funny, where you can click an start to sing the song, that you hear.
That would be something new…
Hey Anst,
yeah that would be a great addition but not for 1.1 sadly, because we want to finish it and not to implement further features.
Voting will start today!
greets,
canni
Hi everyone!
I just spent a few days organizing my music with UltraStar, I have a set of 150 songs + some of them with the actual music video’s synced
I just threw a surprise karaoke birthday party for my brother, and it was simply a blast!
I had UltraStar hooked up to a soundcard with two wireless mics, with the mics going through the input of a mixer, this let me control the volume of both the music from UltraStar + the voice of the singers!
We had the music going until we had to shut off because the neighbors were getting pissed! If there is anything I can do to support the development of this program (except for moneywise…) please let me know!
With warm regards to all the developers!
Samuel
I would recommend looking on jamendo.com for some instrumental piano music or game music. Most of the music there is freely available and usable for the game.
I really hope the final is finished before 1 October, as that will be the day I host a karaoke party.
