World Famous W posted:Edit: just a curiosity, since you're the first person I've talked to that has music up on it,do you get a list of those who followed or just some sort of monthly tally? I actually have no idea. There's some kind of stats that you can look at ("Spotify for Artists") but I've never dug into it. I just use it like slightly fancy web hosting.

I always really loved Flash Tub. It was the main thing that kept me coming back to SA, before I was even aware there was a forum. Thanks Colorfinger.

oh man, loved your work and I remember really wanting to collaborate with ya back in the day. your tracks and audio just always felt so conspicuously good for internet projects, set such strong foundations for the visuals to draw uponColorfinger posted:also not to unduly poo poo on the recently deceased, but I want to also mention this here to get it off my chest and make it "public" to anybody who might even vaguely care... anyway here's the thing: https://www.colorfinger.net/sa/nostalgia/spaghetti.mp3 this rocks, feels like real evocative overworld map music in a techno-western apocalyptic setting, once ya unlock the cyber horse / improved travel or whatever, love it https://www.colorfinger.net/sa/nostalgia/songofmeat.mp3 did this ever get an animation? i'm generally busy as poo poo any more so no idea when i'd put it together, but it feels like something that'd be pleasant to animate for fun and come up with meat concepts if you'd be okay with that. any excuse to play with meat imo do you still do contract audio work For Actual Money? or random creative ditty type things? again busy as hell but it'd be fun to do some small simple creative things, and might have some projects down the road that could pay you for track creation if you'd be interested

Everdraed posted:do you still do contract audio work For Actual Money? I do! I am (I think) a lot better at production now than I used to be. This year I've been working on a (goon) game called Outworlder, a TV pilot called Mac & Watson, and a new Mega64 project. I can't show you the latter two because they're not released yet, but Outworlder is on Steam and YouTube if youre interested in hearing it. I also made this remix of Kitboga for fun: https://youtu.be/-My3OknPZTQ If you wanted to work on YouTubey stuff together, I'd absolutely love that. Last year I very briefly tried to do something for Daniel From Second Life, but he asked me to shut it all down when he got paranoid about it, so if you see comments from his fans on my YouTube channel, that's why.

Colorfinger posted:Nope! I got paid for Doom House and Mood House. I asked for archives access too as payment for doing work for the site and Lowtax told me "take it out of the money you got for Doom House". GEEZ! There really was no end to his lovely attitudes on everything, was there? And to think, I was always irked at him for semi-scamming those of us who paid extra at GoonCon in Vegas to attend his private suite party (he promised that in addition to the party, every attendee would get SA-branded swag as part of the package, which would later be sold individually on the site. And it wasn't until we all got there that we discovered that none of that stuff existed or ever would because Lowtax actually couldn't afford to have any of it made and that GC/the party "were meant to celebrate the site, not go into bankruptcy." But he was happy to take our money while leaving the blurbs up on the subforum, of course. Sucks that so many of you talented types got taken in by such a jerk and wound up leaving the place entirely after a while because of him. I kind of hope that in the Jeffrey-o-Y era there can at least be almost-complete archives of all that great content made available and easy to access again, but who knows how much of it is lost in the digital ether. In any event...it's good to see you here again.

Jeffrey of YOSPOS posted:guy working at seven-eleven: maybe you could just pay me with some scratch tickets and a taquito? Yeaaah, it definitely wasn't a great response. For Doom/Mood House I got paid a grand total of what I would (now) charge for about 2 minutes of finished score, so he got a killer deal. It's a lesson I'm still slowly learning - never work for free, even if it's the thing you're passionate about. People only ever want endless revisions and more stuff for free when it costs them nothing.

Colorfinger! I miss the days when you and your wife did the weekly singing shows. I still think about the one time you read this text somebody wrote about losing their pants at a party or something while playing the Max Payne theme and giggle to myself randomly. Do you still do anything like that? I think I remember catching you on Twitch once or twice a few years ago. Everdraed posted:oh man, loved your work and I remember really wanting to collaborate with ya back in the day. your tracks and audio just always felt so conspicuously good for internet projects, set such strong foundations for the visuals to draw upon i miss seeing your stuff too, it's a shame a lot of your output came out during the more toxic era of SA and a lot of talented people got chased off. raditts fucked around with this message at 02:26 on Nov 15, 2021 |

Either way, can you give whoever has it permission to post it so I can watch it if it's real? If you're talking about the Shmorky/Flash Tub version of DH with Cartoon Frags in the "COP" t-shirt, then yes it's real because Lowtax showed it and other stuff for the DVD at GC in Vegas, along with the Mega64 DVD since this was the Awful Video startup era (another thing Rich allowed to collapse from his lack of desire to actually put in the effort). I don't think it ever appeared anywhere else though; I've certainly only ever seen it that one time only. It's possible Shmorky never had access to his own FT files, and Lowtax probably never bothered to archive/organize it properly. (I imagine Jeffrey getting ahold of the SA assets in a manner akin to buying some disorganized sea can where opening up the doors reveals how big a mess is inside the thing.)

I'm not good at posting links. But Fragmaster mentioned Mood House in another thread. I had only heard of Doom House so I did a search for Mood House. Got this https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRVwGFnXJFka6Wol2u46jwA/videos Has Maybe the whole DVD?

It may be a big ask but i feel like I have to least ask. It would be INCREDIBLE the working folders are nightmarish trashheaps of assets (lots of 'em ultimately unused, i'd usually go overboard with piecemealing assets out for creative play), poorly named and versioned FLA / PSD / AEP projects n exports, and just random bits of inexplicable garbage from whatever other things I was playing with or distracted by at the time too. probably the best course of action would be slowly going through my files by date and trying to remember.... why the hell I did any of the stuff I did?? and maybe hunt down specific threads n posts for context, but it'd definitely be a slow process of me being tremendously confused and grasping at things I generally immediately forgot about the moment after I posted. but just looking at some of these folders makes me want to go back and make escalating works with the assets, new old excuses to play in AE heh. so I'll probably try to have some archivalish fun in the future, maybe if I get a bit of a break from current work-y things raditts posted:i miss seeing your stuff too, it's a shame a lot of your output came out during the more toxic era of SA and a lot of talented people got chased off. honestly the best was effectively collaborative back-n-forths springing up, folks playing off each other and chaining response concepts, exposing new avenues for everyone to explore. that's the sorta thing I don't think can ever be perfectly recaptured without literally just reading the thread normally, and it's another thing entirely to be part of it. I do miss that... it might be worth cautiously trying to revisit, sometime.

Or he was just flat out lying to make himself look better. When he posted that I even went through my email (I've had the same gmail since 2004 at this point) and every email I ever got from him in case I missed him sending it to me. Nothing about a plugin at any point. Lots of flash tub scripts though. That said, he tried calling me to buy tires one time and then got super confused and angry when I told him he had the wrong number, and he insisted that he had already paid for the tires, and wasn't going to pay again... so he certainly wasn't super specific or careful about who he was contacting.
