the term strongbad_email.exe, while being used canonically as both the program that strong bad uses to check his emails, and as the name of the sbemail dvds, makes me think of a strong bad email creepypasta where like, strong bad just actually fucking kills strong sad instead of merely threatening to do so

No need, Strong Sad already willed himself to death back in 20 aught 8

ah. of course. thats the real creepy pasta right there. dealing with the grief of the loss of a loved one due to suicide.
or rather, strong bad's lack thereof.

So! I made an effort and stitched together a new soundfont for The Way, for use with virtualMIDIsynth: (600 MB compressed rar)
Yamaha Tyros 4_Just_T4_Fixed-XCal0.4.2.rar
It is generally geared towards all 6 episodes of midis. (Maybe biased towards the later episodes actually...)
Not perfect, but hard to make a one size fits all song solution soundfont.

Or as I mentioned previously, I believe this is the old soundfont I used back then:
EDIT: Watched that old video and this should be the soundfont from the video, I guess that's the one I used long ago?:

Two decent starting points for music enhancement. (Or you can grab the Cave Story orgmaker soundfont :debug: etc)

Was this based on other soundfonts from the internet? Like as a personal "I think this sounds nice" or is it based on what the original game was composed for?

It's the former. I don't know about any official, The Way, non-midi tracks to use as a reference. And a lot of the music comes from existing songs from that time period. (There was some original music though. But only midi as far as I know.)
And yes, since this is based on existing soundfonts I wouldn't upload it to any soundfont site. Not sure how strict they are. Most are quite old. Just figured I'd see what I could do with what I had.

Here's an example:
Audio volume warning on a few soundfonts!
Comparing the midi starting with the default sound of Microsoft Sound Mapper, then the "original" unreleased track from Final Fantasy VIII, followed by various soundfonts (starting with the soundfont I mixed and matched for The Way), followed by various randomly chosen soundfonts showing the variety you can find. Lastly, I play the mp3 version I directly put together a long time ago.

Sorry for the various audio volumes, need to put a limiter into the loop!
Of course some sound better on some songs, and worse in others.
somewhat abrupt : i dont think ill continue using these forums any longer. if you care enough about this, figure out my contact info and ask why. bye.
Don't mention me in political threads, I have other things to focus on. Thanks

honestly the "global politics" thread, while not actually about politics, is kinda just aimless in my eyes
Both the May 15, 2010 and November 13, 2010 Soaprun servers are still up and seems to be still running around the clock. No initialization so far at the time of writing this status, the NPCs are still may be somewhere else because of Soaprunner interaction, and all shade tile drawings still intact. Here's a video showing the most drawing rooms. (Fact: May 15, 2010 map has the most drawing rooms than November 13, 2010 map)

SoaprunDrawings5152010map-1.mp4 Recorded with Roxio MultiCam Capture.

More Soaprun servers with different maps are going to pop up soon because alula reached out to Pixel and got the source code of Soaprun and it's server cgi, now it's on the Soaprun page in the Tribute Site. alula shared even 2 more maps. The new servers with different maps will be available when it's done.

May 30, 2010 and June 19, 2010 are both better than May 15, 2010 because they both have modifications and have more Chase Demons.
oof.

Came back from the dead I guess.

I don't feel like getting into ALL of the details, but this is the basics of what happened:

In short, I was being transphobic and immature without realizing it, exiled myself from the Cave Story community for a bit, reflected on it since then, and came back to apologize.
kurosurintomasu
kurosurintomasu
ah.

honestly, being forgiven of your words isn't easy, but realizing that what you did was wrong and truly apologizing is the first step towards forgiveness

I guess so.. It's been sitting on my mind for a while. I didn't know how to address the issue, so I left it alone until I got into a better mental space.
I have some history to share during my playing of the earlier versions of Soaprun back in 2010. I constructed big PNGs of the whole maps of the earlier days. And each time there are some modifications in the updates, I only pasted small room modifications into the PNG.

May 15, 2010 (From 0.432? Some prior versions before that... Shared in 0.030 mod)
November 12, 2010 (From 0.432)
November 13, 2010 (From 0.432, Shared in 0.030 mod, most recent)

I also want to share the version 0.010 as well that is still lying around. I'm sure that the contents in the data folder are the same as the one from 0.020. This is the absolute single-room prototype and the Soaprunner can only move once per key press.

Lastly, my hilarious act involving lag, someone with the Shield of Storms and the Chase Demon going over the Safe Zone and purposely dying to flood the spawn point with corpses!

These are awesome! I'm a bit busy making code updates right now, but once I'm done that I plan to add more servers for each known map variation, so these are exactly what I needed/was hoping someone had.
