    Dougal, sounds interesting, I have to check that one out and see what can I come up with. Meloncov, you don't need to hire me to do anything :) I try to produce new material as fast as I can, so if you have special needs, mention them and I try to create something.

    A few new tunes: Red Fields Long Live the King Crystal Cavern Long Live the King is first song with truly pompous and "overkill" feel to it. It was sort of a test - I tried to see how much material I can make Gigastudio output without killing the machine. In the worst parts my processor strain...

    Moments of emotion

    You're absolutely right - there's no right or wrong way to play any role-playing games. I can very well relate to the "game mechanics and strategy" -style of playing although I'm almost totally into immersive and storytelling gaming style myself. But what is quite important thing to remember is...

    Players Decide to End Campaign

    These kinds of things happen eventually with every group and every campaign when the critical time limit is reached. I think the most important thing is not to get depressed or go looking for answers to questions like "what went wrong" because it's most probably not about that at all - sometimes...

    Phew I have had so hard time with my studies that I haven't had almost any time to fiddle around in the studio :( But we have autumn break next week so I try to manage to create something new. But I managed to do a small update - we released three songs from the upcoming Ultima IX Redemption...

    Waltari is one of the only bands in Finland who have had somekind of presence internationally also - should have guessed that :) And thanks for the ideas, all of them seem really interesting and offer good base from which to try and work forward musically. I'll see what I can do...

    Nice ideas Dougal, I have to see how to achieve those goals! That "Palaa leipää" sounds interesting, is it the name of the band or the album itself? By the way, "Pala leipää" means "A bit of bread" and "Palaa leipää" means (look) "At a bit of bread".

    Thank you - I know the feeling when you find a musical piece which seems to fit perfectly into some situation in one's or one's character's life. Oh, and I just had this thought: usually it's a bit more meaningful to compose music when you have some sort of plan or structure - what the music is...

    I just made and uploaded two new songs: Dire News Secret Garden The reason why the mikseri.net projects are not too active at the moment is that I'm currently making music for the Ultima IX Redemption project (Ultima IX Redemption). But Corv updated the project page today and added a few...

    That would be really kind of you, thank you! :)

    Great to hear you like the music! And feel free to create CDs for yourselves or for your relatives/friends, that sounds like a really nice idea :) Alas, it seems that mikseri.net is quite instabile environment. Last night their harddrive crashed, which caused the service to be down for almost...

    That would be nice idea I think, I'm just not sure if there are many guys willing to keep it seeded all the time? Actually the bandwith is not a problem for me because mikseri.net is completely free for users, so I don't have to pay a dime. But the problem is that while being free it's a bit...

    A Different kind of Campaign Start

    Sounds really nice :) Personally one of the most intense games I've ever played was the first Vampire game I played... It was many many years ago when the White Wolf was never heard of and the first edition of The Masquerade was published. The game itself wasn't actually even Vampire - it was a...

    Hehe, thanks for the kind words, but I'm sort of an idealist regarding the freedom of music. I want music to be free and don't think that I have that kind of right to demand ownership as a composer - I'm just a bridge in between who channels something to this world. Sounds a bit corny, but...

    Just a heads up: I've noticed that mikseri.net seems to have some random problems - sometimes project pages won't load even though the main pages work and straight download links to the songs work also. I asked around and it seems they seem to have some operating system problems (didn't get...

    Player Problems..

    These are always hard problems to solve. One question that comes to my mind is this: What is the motivation for the character to stay in the party/group and what motivates the other characters to keep him in the party/group? Sometimes only reason is the fact that he is a player character and so...

    Like genshou said, sadly there's no such thing available at the moment. It would be a really good addition to the UI on mikseri.net pages though, I think I have to propose it on the forums there. But then again, I'm not sure how the button should work - should it pop up instantly 20 different...

    World Building Help?

    Try to get the base facts regarding economy/culture/relationships between different kingdoms together, so that you have good view on how the world has come to be as it is and what are the main basic elements in it now. The level of detail is dependent on your players. If they tend to be more...
