Does Burning Sparks sound more like a spring day, sunset, or late night?

Still hard at work on the lore! I'm debating weather to include it with Antique Cylinders or have a seperate mod called "Antique History". I already got the cover art I would use for it, it's really pretty! And I'd have so much fun making the mod page! But I always intended on putting this in Cylinders... Maybe I should rebrand it to "Antique Cylinders & Story"? or maybe "Antique Cylinders+"?

This stiry will be the emotional core of my mods, and probably the game too. If I pull this off right, your socks will be on the other side of the room from how hard I nocked them off.

Currently hard at work at making custom structures+lore to give history to the music. (will be part of Antique Cylinders)
I just accidentally coppied and pasted my biggest structure over itself and there is no way to salvage it. I'm going to have to restart from the ground up ;-;
Hope y'all are ready for a banger experience!

After talking to one of my lovely users, I have started investigating the idea of making vinyl records. I can't imagine any more than like 2 people buying it, so I am on the fense. I think it would be so cool to have some of this music on physical media out there in the world! If you are interested in buying one, please let me know!
I've looked at some manufacturers and began dialogue with one, and the price of vinyls would depend on how many people buy them. If 10+ people buy, I can sell them for ~$60 a pop, and I could negociate that price even lower for anyone who can't aford that. But if only one or two people buy it, then the price would be over $100 each, which would be absolutely absurd. 
IF I do this, I want to be super careful that it doesn't come across like I'm trying to sell a product. I'm not here to make money, I'm here to make music. I would wrather everyone have my vinyl and I have made no money than 2 people have my vinyl and i have an extra $40 in my pocket. 

Anyways, the more feedback the better! If 10 people say they want one, I would feel a lot more comfortable setting up a preorder than if 0 did.

 

 

About

 

This is a whole new, original soundtrack for the game. By default, it adds the music in with the original OST. You can set it to replace soundtrack by using Config Lib's Mod Settings menu. (Then relog)

Check out Antique Cylinders too for even more music! 

 

As of 1.18.x, there is 2 hours of music. More music is always on the way!

Notes

 

This mod is incomplete, new songs are added as I write them


Is there a way to bring down the volume of the vanilla music to match Antique Harmony's volume?
Yes! I made this private mod to do that, feel free to use it! I haven't  posted this on the mod databass because... Well I can't put my finger on it, but my gut i telling me not to, probably just because of the size, and since it contains nearly the whole OST. Idk.

 

5 songs have been distributed to Spotify and Apple Music. I originally planned to slowly distribute everything that way, however I have decided I would prefer to release it all in one album, both  the primary songs and the ambient tracks, this way I can arrange so listening to the album all the way through is a special experience. 

 

Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any thoughts, or feedback! Give me the good and the bad, I got thick skin.

 

Also, I feel this should go without saying, but no AI was used, nor will ever be used in any copacity in this project. 

 

Want to change how often a song plays?

  1. Unzip the pack 

  2. Go to assets / antiqueharmony / patches and open either musicconfigadd.json or  musicconfigreplace.json, depending on weather you have the mod set to add (default) or replace soundtrack.

  3. This file controls when each song plays. Any of the variables can be changed or removed to tailor the mod to your liking.

     - he min/max hour variables control the time of day. Some examples of valid variables may be 12 (noon), 14.5 (2:30pm), 24 (midnight)

    - For min/max season, 0 is Jan 1 and 1 is December 31st. Pick any number in-between.

    - For minrainfall, 0 is clear weather and 1 is heavy rain.

    - distanceToSpawnPoint is self explanatory--it's the number of blocks away you are from wherever your spawn point is. I'm not entirely sure how this is effected if you haven't set your spawn with a gear. 

    - min temperature is self explanatory. Unfortunately, there is no max temperature variable ;-;

    - Startpriority is complicated and I don't understand it, but I know one thing: Keeping it in gives a song more priority than most other default music, and removing that line gives it the default priority. In my experience, increasing "var" to 0.2 has higher priority than 0.

    Any line can be removed to eliminate that variable. 

  4. Once you have finished editing this, save it, zip the mod back up and move it into the mods folder.

 

 

 

 

Credits

 

*As the Rain Fall Through the Trees is the only song that is not entirely original, containing the melody from the hymn: "As the Wind Song Through the Trees", originally written by Shirley Erena Murray. This song is particularly special to my beautiful girlfriend, Adrienne. This one is for you :D <3

 

*Red Leaves features the melody from Go Lassy Go aka Wild Mountain Thyme. I felt inspired to use this when I was playing with my brother and he started singing it. I thought "wow, that melody would lend itself excellently to this game". This one goes out to you, Tuh Tuh Buh Duh Duh

All music composed/arranged by Adric J. Williams

 

*Burning sparks... features the melody from the campfire song/hymn: "Pass It On", by Kurt Kaiser.

 

*Candlewick Creek | So fun fact, I didn't even realize how similar the theme in this was to Wet Hands (Minecraft - by C418) until after I wrote it. I was thinking to myself why does this song so familiar?

I first wrote this maybe ~6 months ago, for my and my girlfriend's base in Minecraft. I had been really on the fence about putting this song in because on one hand, it's banger and can fit really well with few adjustments, but on the other hand, I didn't write it specifically for Antique Harmony. I hadn't even heard of Vintage when writing it. But I threw it in, and when I tested it, I was like Oh yeah... that's cannon now.  

 

 

Compatability

 

 - COnfig Lib -- use this to toggle add/replace music and weather or not the ambient tracks play.

 

- Apocriva's Closed Captions modd :D

 

 - Salty and Proto's Temporal Symphony
     - Replaces mod's default storm music with a special Antique Harmony version

 

 - This is compatable with all music mods that don't rewrite the music system. This includes mods such as Requiem of Rust Symphony, Gothic Game Music, etc. (but not Vintage Symphony ;-;) 

      - You can use my template mod to add your own tracks too!

 

 

Roadmap

 

 - Make it work when playing on servers   Complete! 

 - Continue to balancing the schedule of the music   Good enough

 - Write more music for nights, autumn winter & Sunset

 - Add more orchestral ambient tracks

 - Keep writing new music for the mod because I enjoy it : )

     - 1 or 2 more Winteer tracks

     - exclusive Spring song

     - rewrite boss music for R.A.

     - "It calls to you..."

 - Develop alternate version that replaces all default music instead of just adding to it This is now built into the mod using Config Lib

 - Distribute music on Spotify, Apple Music, etc. Volume 1 is out now! Though It's not showing up on Spotify for some reason...

 - 

 

 

 

   Bucket List (Stuff I don't know how to do on my own)

There's a few special things I would like to implimejt, but I do not have the technical know-how. Could anyone help me with these?

 

 - Seperate volume slider for modded/vanilla music 🙏

 - functionality for a song that gets added to the rotation when sailing

 - Fix the new resonance archive music not playing (Simply adding the file in with the same name/location does not change it)

 - Figure out how to replace "Safety of a Warm Fire" with "Burning sparks..." (Simply adding the file in with the same name/location does not change it)
 - Impliment a song that plays when the "temporal storm is iminent" message apears in chat.

 - Tuning Cylander sister mod for the songs that are too exciting to play naturally.

 

Rules for Videos / streaming

 

Go right ahead! It would absolutely delight me if anyone used this music in a stream, video, etc. You're even welcome to take the music files out of the mod and put them in in post as long as the following is met:

 - Please credit the mod either in the video or in the description. (I'd wrather you credit the mod then credit me by name)

 - Please let me know if you're using it, that would make my day! Feel free to drop a link in the comments! 

 - You're welcomme to use anny of the music for unrelated mod trailer videos too! 

 

 

Special Thanks

 

Antique Harmony/Cylinders is a tapestry of different modders, each one contributing what they can to aid in my project. Without them, the Antique Suite would just be a gleam in my eye. My deepest gratitude goes out to everyone who has assisted in this journey.

 - Brady_The for both rewriting the music config and implimenting the config option

 - apocriva for majorly assisting  me in making this mod compatable with his mod, closed captions!

 - dimeymer for translating Antique Harmony, Cylinders and Ensemble into Russian
