WhiteWing Media Mixer

Posted by WhiteWing on Jan. 9, 2008, 8:56 p.m.

XD Third GM Forum to be posted, so I'll copy this from the reflect forums.

Ok, I'm gonna start a project, mainly for the purpose of mixing some sounds me and my friends have on different instruments.

I'm thinking since I'm "ok" on d&d and beginner at gml, I should form a team, which is pretty much what i want to do. I will be the spriter, but I need some people to code. Here's some of what i wrote at gmc, since im to lazy to write it all again

WhiteWing Media Mixer!

Ok, I suck at explaining, if i had a picture of what i have in my mind, thatd be a whole lot easier, here goes.

Im trying to make a media mixer, since well me and my friends started a band, and my friend has most of the instruments at his house, hes going to record some drum parts. I on the other hand will record the guitar part, but I want to create my own little system to mix different files. The features should include importing more than one sound file, separate play buttons, stop, and pause buttons for each sound file, and one big play file at the bottom, that plays all the sounds at the same time, a typable box where you can set the delay time in sec, saving to an MP3 file or a WWMM File (the media file itself for future editing) and maybe some other stuff, that should cover the basics.

I myself will do some spriting, but mostly try to arrange everything, test some of it.etc

so i will stress THE MEMBERS ON MY TEAM WILL GET MOST OF THE CREDIT.

Jobs available are:

Main coder:

coder:

Please fill out this form when you pm me

Job wanted: (XD lol one of the coders obviously, difference though, main coder will do the more advanced stuff)

Desired Name:

Experience with GML :

Frequent on computer?: Yes or No

Age (optional):

If you are interested, PM me, Im going to start working on some of the sprites for the program, and i should have some screenies soon, (im pretty sure u can edit posts)

Thanks, and join Pl0x

——————————-

Im working on the tabs at the moment, and I will begin working on the other stuff (stuff surrounding the tabs, and stuff, but for now, please decide on what i have done

Heres a more updated screeny (there was one i deleted on the gmc forums, its an older one, i decided to post some better screenies here

=P

Again i repeat

DO NOT STEAL IMAGES

i spent like over 3 hours now, editing and fixing and blending, and trying to get the same effect thats in windows media player

(Im testing around with the coding, and i dont quite understand this "sound_set_search_directory(dir) Sets the directory in which direct music files are to be found. The dir string should not incluce the final backslash.

So let's just re-invent the wheel with something shittier, because we can. If you want it to be as good as Audacity, be prepared to learn to code. That's because no one will want to help you with that. You say you'll give "most of the credit", but your name is the one on it. So, who's really getting the credit? You. Get your name off it and make it a product everyone can use, but I still don't recommend it. Use Audacity. Oh, and learn to type. Geeze, noobs bring out the worst in me.

Wow you guys, READ EVERYTHING PL0X,
Y'know. Typing in caps and saying "PL0X" really isn't going to help your cause. Perhaps people have been a little harsh from the beginning, but your reaction has just spurred them on.

Chill out, mate. ;]

CAPS LOCK IS CRUISE CONTROL FOR COOL!

Yeah, you probably know GML. Do you know any languages that will get you anywhere as a programmer? Probably not.

Because it's fun. There's a difference between a game and a tool. If you're going to do something for someone, and there are good tools out there to do it already, why do it again? A game, on the other hand, can be modeled in a sense the programmer/storywriter wants it to be. A tool is simply a utility. You can't really personalize it. If Audacity has all of the features you need, why remake them with something that would get out-performed?

Your point about shutting down the site particularly hurts me as a respected member (not to mention administrator) of this community. This isn't just a game site. Do you see YYG with blogs, favorite users, or a community/family-like userbase? No, you don't. Oh, and why don't they just shut down YYG when there's Great Games Experiment? Or how about they get rid if GM because there's C++? Or why not get rid if C++ when you can use a needle to write machine code directly onto your hard drive by hand?

Anyway, on the subject of giving credit: Even I can make a few buttons, and I suck with graphics. Even if you do give credit where credit is due, your name is still the first thing people will see, and either way you're asking people to make an entire program for you.

Also, your argument about gamehawk being a noob is completely invalidated due to your all-caps posting, terrible spelling and grammar, and failed arguments.
