Music is becoming such an important thing in video games (not that it wasn't before) So why is there no music forum???

There is no music board because noone has made one.

I think his question just might've been rhetorical.
But yes, a board for music would be nice.

Then maybe a game.

Well, technically, it wasn't a question since it didn't have the question mark. I agree 100%, we need a board for SFX/Music.

Indeed, but that's not the "question" i was talking about. I was talking about the one that had the exact same meaning, but didn't have a question mark in it.....or three for that matter.

I suggested it back when I suggested Game Design Theory. Was surprised when Rich only chose one of the two :\

C'mon TGC, let the musicians have their forum!

*slap*

teehee

I'm sort of leaning towards the side of how popular would this be? I sort of think that it's only a small section of the entire general discussion board, and we don't see music/sound threads often enough to warrant a board specifically for it.

On the other hand, trying it out for, say a month, wouldn't be a bad idea to see how many people would actually contribute. I dunno why music has been ignored.

^It could be a place for sound questions in general. Like if anyone has trouble with the Enhanced Audio plugin, that would be a great place to ask for help. Or if they just want to discuss music theory, get feedback on various tracks. I would probably make a bunch of threads there.

Well..

theres a music forum at DarkDev.

If people are active in the forums, I'll actually update all that free media.


And if people are active in the music board, I'll set up a musician gallery and profile system.

Meh. Signatures. Lame :p

@Xenocythe Site is looking good. I think you should remove the whole "can't view forum if your not logged in" thing. If somebody visits your site they have no incentive to sign up. If you do it like the TGC Forums, you can browse but not post. You may get a few more members.
Just a thought though.

Yes.. I would also LOVE to see a music/sound board on the TGC Forum. I can't believe its been so long without one. A game with no sound is no game at all.

Sig removed by BiggAdd because he is everywhere.

a music/sound board would be cool. it would be a good place for people to get opinions on music/sound effects they're working on.

I agree, music / sound board is needed if not necessarry to the developers here. Ok, not necessary but we have seen such an increase in musicians around here lately it can't be a bad thing.

Would be pointless, this board can be used for music purposes, so why would we need it? That is like wanting a girlfriend forum if you ask me.

That's like saying "why do we need 3D chat when we can just use this board for 3D art purposes".

All your music are belong to me.

By the way, if we're busy doing a Music board petition, can we also do one for social issues? I mean, that is absolutely crucial for some developers here...
