Hey everyone, here to make another tiny update. I'll try and do more of these this time to show I'm actually progressing. First off, I'm currently keeping in touch with KSA_Tech and attempting to port over ROTP to PWLib 1.2, which will take a bit of shifting and the such.

Also, DeMatador and I are hopefully going to start searching for a new solid team to stick with us the whole way through, and we're going to search for ALL sorts of help. Spriting, videos, voice acting, and other little graphic works as well, but more on that when the time is right.

Finally, I'm still re-typing up the script from my memory when I have free time, but I've decided to change a few of the new character names (but not the already important ones), and to make everything fit together better. More on that later as well.

For now, I found the trailer, remastered the colours and uploaded to YouTube to be viewed in 1080p! Here it is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mqTYLjcc ... ature=plcp
Enjoy!

Update-o-rama!

As of late, I've been focusing on rewriting that 1000 page script I unfortunately lost (from memory as best as I can, mind you), and scouting the best potential voice actors/actresses for the project as well. For people who are curious about how the voice acting will work, there are plans to have an option to turn the voices on or off depending on your preference. I'm hoping the VAs (who are quite good, by the way) will bring a whole new level of atmosphere to the game- a different take on the series, if you will.

Also, I'm still currently somewhat working without a team at the moment. DeMatador has kindly offered to help with general stuff, but aside from that, I'm still looking for assistance. The most important thing I need right now is programmers who can program in PWLib/AIGE. If you have the ability to program in that from a simple written script, then please let me know. Thanks.

'Lo folks, I've been recruited to be the coder for this and get us going!
I'll leave papermario to inform you on the rest of what's going on, but let this post serve as a "I'm onboard".

Spread the word- progress is occurring in most of the departments, and all information/updates will be shown on my blog. Link here: http://hiroi-sekai.com/projects/phoenix ... -the-past/

We're getting official artwork for new characters. We're getting talented voice actors. We've got a talented and experienced music composer. Many thanks to DDRKhat for offering to help with programming as well (I'm constantly working on stuff when I can). And for the story, I'm afraid you're stuck with me, hehe. :p

Thanks again everyone, stay tuned.

Progress is still being made, for those of you still around. We're actually developing Trucy's Theme at the moment; can't spill the beans on much, but do know this project is in high gear. A majority of artworks for the new characters are completed (there will be other artworks too), talented voice actors are filling the roles (Rina-chan, Miku-tan and many others. Even possibly working on Egoraptor, hopefully), and we'll be getting a full-sized soundtrack produced as well.

Step back, because ROTP is as big as it always was. We're working hard to get the demo made, so thanks for your everlasting patience!

I would love to help on this game... but all I could really do is, and this is a big maybe, make sprites of characters....
Still can't wait for this though!!!

---

I'm glad to hear this still exists, though I do hope you understand that, if this game turns out to be anything less then perfect after all this time in developemnt, I and a lot of other people are going to pull it's metaphorical arms off.

---

So this project still exists, neat. It was juuuuust starting last time I visited the ol' Court records forum.

I reckon I'll keep on eye on it, and if you ever need a VA for Larry, I've got previous experience in it.

(As I'm sure no one from 2008 remembers me ^_^;; )

Anyway, I'll try and remember to keep an eye on progress around here.

Hello there, anyone that's watching. I'm having difficulties so I've decided I'd post up here if someone could help me(/us) out.
I'm sat trying to port the music from the NDS roms into a modular format (.it) I've had some success with some of the songs but others aren't coming out that well.
If there's any audio engineers in the audience, speak up here or PM me!

---

It's been over a year since I've checked this forum; just popped into my mind for some reason. Any updates? Currently have a lot of work so I'll be focusing on that right now, would be nice to see it finished by the end of 2013. Good luck as always

I don't know the steps you took to get some songs to work. Some games/NDS Roms' tracks are just impossible to rip (because there is either no sequence data the available ripping tools can find, which means the music is in .strm format, or that there is sequence/instrument data in a weird format that the available tools do not understand what it is).

In a typical NDS game, music consists of individual sequences (so one "midi" file per track), and the instrument data the sequences refer to (typically named sound banks).

The available tools out there can rip NDS rom musics' sequences into MIDI files and the instrument data to DLS (Downloadable Sound format).

Convert your MIDI to a .it format (Mod Plug Tracker should do the trick)

You'll need to convert your .dls instruments pertaining to your MIDI as an individual .ITI (Impulse Tracker Instrument)

Import the Midi'd .IT file into the Impulse Tracker program, for you have to manually load every single instrument (the converted DLS files that became .ITIs) after you import the .IT file.

However, most likely the track will sound out of whack so you have to manually play with all the envelope settings.


IMO, it would be easier for you to handle NDS rom data music into a program like FL studio so you don't have to individually guess and figure out which channel the instrument needs to be loaded in (though I've never used Impulse Tracker myself so I don't know).

To prove I'm not talking out of nowhere, please check out some tracks I "remade/ported" in regards to some AA tracks:
