Qp 1.0 Quality pack 1.0 is still well under work, bemanistyle 7.0 kinda screwed up progress a little, had to re-register and such.
I have obtained some equipment for my studio, and will be working on the sound-proofed room shortly (so any people out there wanna join my project, if you live in the GTA there may be some perks). Very soon I will have facilities for grabbing some high quality voice/instrument samples/performances, to use with editing software on my system.
I have been pushing for a while to get some developers on the team I would much rather share snippets of the database with a developer for improvement to QP 1.0 standards (so that tracks are releaseable).
Many of the songs are from bemanistyle 6.0, which is now gone.
I will probably do a big grab of 7.0 database tracks, I have about 3000 more to scoop up during the week (figured I would do that now considering the reduction in submissions per day).
I have need for people that can contribute almost anything.... graphics, sound, steps.... WHATEVER. There is just way too much work for 1 person to do alone on this project and if I'm the only one doing it, it will never get finished. About a year of work has gone into it so far, and it sure as heck isn't a small database either (I had to buy a new hard drive specifically for that).
There are some project milestones which I'm aiming for, the first will be a release of the 100 best tracks in current condition for QP v0.9b, a sample of things to come with the final release.
The final release will feature no less than 500 tracks. It is designed to be a mammoth database to help people get started with stepmania. It is designed to be of the utmost quality, so that the things that are seen and heard are crisp and clear.
After release of QP 1.0F there'll be a quick side-project for a theme, and there will most definitely be a track or two produced originally by me and with the help of some local volunteers, where I will be aiming for the utmost quality possible (instead of making a tonne of songs, just a few good ones you know).
So anybody with some spare time and talent, drop me a private message and we can see what we can get you doing for this project. |
