hi there, new to the boards here. i played the game a long time ago and loved it...i also fell in love with the music. i downloaded it as soon as it was offered. however, my computer died a while back, and with it, my only coply of the awesome music. i am hoping that one of you fine people might still have a copy of the full soundtrack that you could email me, or know of a location other than the sierra site that appears to be down now (not surprisingly really, considering the time that has passed). please help a lost music lover! thanks! trayton.
-Puts on Obe Wan voice- Don't you see young Padawan? The ability to hear the Arcanum songs was within you all along. Concentrate on the force...Look deep within yourself...In your Arcanum directory to be precise. Arcanum\modules\Arcanum\sound\music There they all are. Apart from the Demise of the Zephyr. That music can be found in the intro movie. If you really want to play that without starting the game you can use Bink. http://www.radgametools.com/bnkdown.htm Perhaps someone else can explain how to turn the movie into an MP3 or even better yet, they can just post the original music file.
it would certainly be sweet if someone could post the original sountrack, seeing as my pc is doing it's best impression of a dog playing dead right now...i'm stuck using my iMac, which is fine for what i use it for, but gaming is just not one of those things...sigh. in otherwords, i cannot even look in the arcanum directory. i wish the situation were otherwise, but..... tray.
http://www.benhouge.com/arcanumscores.html Sheet music for the pieces. I'm annoyed, I need to pay who knows how much money to get "SmartMusic" in order to view it. Also, I think if you search around that website you'll find downloadable stuff to listen to.
actually, i did manage to find that site with a little searching. there are two songs on it that i could download (from arcanum, there were others as well from other games). the sheet music is cool, but i don't know anyone else besides myself that plays violin, and forget about viola and cello! oh well, still hoping someone with the music already downloaded will speak up! thanks anways though tray.
I'm trying to find a way to hose a itunes file for you on these forums... any suggestions of how I could do it? All my music for Arcanum is in my arcanum folder as itunes files. And did you manage to access the sheet music? Omg tell me what the music looks like, is there any way you could paste it somewhere or link it to me somehow? I asked whether or not I could get a free trial of that SmartMusic program at their support forums but no one has yet to respond ><
I don't think you should post links to warez stuff here. Please take the discussion about how to do it elsewhere (=with PMs).
box of fox... hey there box, you should just be able to email it to me as an attachment if you have already separated those files into iTunes. and to respond to the concerns of mathboy, i don't think these files would be warez seeing as they were freely posted by atari on their site for all to download. i just happen to be 5 years late on that...oops.
That's a bit of a coincidence that the music downloads are working again after not working for months (perhaps years). Did someone e-mail Sierra about this and ask them to fix it?
happiness! well all i have to say is thanks to whomever did so, i think i may want to burn a disk now so i don't lose them again. someone is looking out for me . now if i can only get the sheet music working...shouldn't take too much effort thanks all! tray.
