Awesome! So, are you uploading them to the site as you go or are you gonna put them all on at once?

Quote from: JDMEK5 on April 15, 2015, 06:34:12 PMThanks for the dedicated dedication guys!
Totally agree! Great work Updaters! :)

Quote from: Olimar12345 on April 15, 2015, 07:00:35 PMBefore your time, young padawan.


As for specific updaters covering specific projects, if no one minds  I'll hold down the fort with submissions once schools out (a few more weeks and few hundred more performances!) if you want to divide and conquer. Tbh, I never had much interest in BK and PM music, so mustering the willpower to go through them was rough. I do plan to hit subs with full force this summer, so be prepared.

I see.

Quote from: Bespinben on April 15, 2015, 07:25:32 PMI like this! I'd be a lot more motivated for PKMN music than Banjo stuff, so I think each of us can find our niche and prosper. We can always cross over too. Not like Olimar has to be alone with submissions, or vice versa.
So are you going to finish looking over the Banjo songs? Other than 2 of Dekus (which I'm sure are perfect) and Glitter Gulch Mine which I'm fixing up this very second, there only a few left. :)

Maybe for this one I'll upload thrm all at the end as I don't really have system for keeping track of what I've done. i think for future ones, uploading as they go would be better.

Hey everyone!

Quote from: mariolegofan on January 10, 2015, 07:23:40 AMAny help with the preparations would be greatly appreciated :)

For the past few days, MLF and I have spent a minute or two looking over each sheet from the D/P/Pt section and have come up with this preliminary list right here.  It's by no means a comprehensive list of all the problems in the sheets (there are lots!) but it's a good starting point. So go ahead and add errors that you find or correct anything I may have said wrong.

Feel free to get a head start working on a sheet or two (and let us know so there's no overlap), but keep in mind that the project hasn't officially started yet. That'll happen when MLF posts a new topic when the Banjo project is done.

Mostly this is happening right now because mods/updaters are busy finishing off the other projects, but most of the arranging work is done for the Banjo and Pokémon R/B project.  So eager arrangers can get a head start on this! :)



Here are some widespread problems throughout most of the sheets, so I won't bother repeating them. These should be double checked for all sheets.
- URL needs to be updated
- Text formatting does not match guidelines (Also check for correct copyright and composer info, and the accented é in Pokémon)
- Measure size and spacing, margins, and aesthetic stuff
- Lack of dynamics and articulation (and maybe metronome markings)

I'll mainly focus on the music in the following list.

Key: Status Color Code: (borrowed from JDMEK5)
Red: This sheet has not yet been fixed. A diagnosis of problems will be provided in a spoiler.
Yellow: This sheet is currently being fixed.
Brown: This sheet has been reworked but still hasn't met current standards. Work on this sheet has been dropped by the original modifier. Treatment is identical to red. This sheet is up for grabs.
Blue: This sheet has been fixed and has gained approval from myself and all of you (as far as you have spoken). However this sheet still lacks approval from Olimar12345 or TheDekuTrombonist. Such approval is pending. (Hang tight! ;))
Green: This sheet has been fixed and has gained approval from a sufficient number of moderators and thereby will be uploaded.
Black: This song will be gone by the time we're done. Don't bother trying to save it.

Key: "How Much Work Needs to be Done" Code: (I made this myself!)
1: This sheet very nearly matches NSM standards! It just needs a few finishing touches.
2: This sheet is quite good, but still needs some nontrivial changes.
3: This sheet generally matches the original song, but needs some major work. Still, you'll be able to salvage a large part of it.
4: This sheet needs to be completely reworked. It is plagued by many inaccurate/missing notes or disastrous formatting errors. Starting it over might be a good idea.

And what's up with Route 205?

Fixed. Most of the sheets currently on site (like Route 209) don't specify day or night, but all town/route themes have a different day and night version. (Kinda sad they discontinued this in the recent games.)

Route 205: The night solo and duet are by Fingerz, and they are pretty good already. The day version by dahans, which happens to be a duet, needs some more work.

Wow I don't think I ever asked for the Rival Battle Theme to be put on site even :P It was literally my first arrangement ever, and there are more errors than you've pointed out here (lots of wrong keys (this was over three years ago)) and just overall pretty shabby, though I have to defend the beaming in m12, as that is an acceptable note-beaming (not saying the alternative is wrong ofc).
I can't be participating in fixing these as I use Finale 2014, meaning no one will be able to open my files, so good luck everyone else.

Finale 2014 can export MUS files, which are view-able in Finale 2012.

But then the sound gets locked as that disgusting midi-sound, which has kept me from getting something on-site in the past.
