Help for marriage proposal

I have some ideas about the music to play but I need to review a bit and I will come back to you with the idea. But in general I imagine this: One song for outworld, another for church (the wedding melody is perfect here) and some other for the tri-force scene. Is it possible to do that? Implement three songs?

Regarding the voice, I don't know if it is a good idea. Although my pronunciation in English is good, it is not perfect.

I have an additional question, and maybe this is not so easy to achieve, but I just want to know. I'm going to run the game on my PC with an emulator. Is it possible that when you reach the end of the last scene, you will be asked to press a button on the control (button A for example) and write a command through one of the USB ports? I have already done this before from a C / C ++ program and I write on the serial port of the PC that has a bluetooth module connected to it. The command I write is as simple as the letter "E" for example. The bluetooh device is paired to a HC-05 module (another bluetooth module) that can read the ASCII code of the letter E and use it as input for a microcontroller. After that, the rest is a piece of cake. If you can make pressing the A button on the game controller write the letter E on one of the USB ports, I can do everything else. Writing the letter E is really just send the ASCII code.


Thanks for your willingnes to help me. I did not expect to find so many people willing to help me.

Right now, I believe these are the different songs in the mod:

Title screen/name entry
Overworld
Church
Castle
Triforce
Credits

With 1 additional songs playing if you return to the starting house immediately after exiting it at the start of the game, and another if you return into the tunnel after entering the castle courtyard. (both of these I believe are bugs, but minor enough to not actually need fixing)

So that's 6 distinct tracks.

Personally, if you were going to use the traditional 'bridal march' wedding song (first song on this playlist: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sqLK0Ys0VAg ), then I'd use it for the credits (after the actual proposal).

For the castle (since that's where part 1 of the Claddagh speech happens), I'd use something like 'Ave Maria'. And I'd use 'Eine Kleine Nachtmusik' for the Church (both songs also on that playlist).

But yea, I can convert any song into a PCM for the mod, including any audio you record yourself. So pick whatever music you feel most appropriate.

Creating a command in-game to trigger a command over USB isn't really something that can be done easily, as it would require recoding portions of snes9x itself to make work... And I don't think anyone here has the skills for THAT.  You could always just set the box to open from a remote signal, and just have you hit the button to pop the box open at the appropriate time.

Oh, and slight maybe bug? If you beat the mod, then load the save again, you start back up right before joining link in the church, but it skips the king's speech about the Claddagh ring, and lets you walk straight into the triforce section.

Conn wrote:You can make any music into pcm... since SePH already put in the auto speed, I'd suggest you record the voice timed. Means you play until the credits and read the lines in a mic when they appear and send it to edale - he can merge it with the bg music and would do much easier than copy/paste each line in the exact position.

It's not possible to send a command out of the emulated game into the computer (lol, that would also give some great opportunities to stuff some viruses inside a snes rom )
I think you sit next to her when she is playing... maybe you can tinker on a remote control and secretly hit a switch so it opens when she's at the desired place?

When the king starts speaking, a song change needs to go in pointing to a track not used elsewhere in the mod, with a return to the normal music after the speech ends. giving a second or so after the song change before the king's speech text starts will make lining things up easier.

Conn wrote:I'm sure there's no need to get overambitious and dub every dialogue. As said, I'm open to *try* whether I get the king done (if the resources are there like voice actor and Oscars wish for that), but that's it... triforce chamber is good enough already imo. Dubbing every single dialogue gets way too complex, and it would become embarrassing if the game freezes due to a bug in a critical moment.

edale wrote:Hmmm.... We're forgetting something... When Link greets Zelda in the church.

That part would definitely count as Oscar talking directly to Yese...

So maybe Oscar voicing Link's part in the Church, someone else voicing the King, and a 3rd person as the Triforce (hmmm... male or female voice.. decisions...)... With Oscar jumping in to voice the last "It's dangerous to go alone, so let's go together" line?

And as I've said, I can very likely get voice actors (professional ones no less!) with no problems.

We'll have to wait for Oscar to chime in on how he'd like things.

My email is:

Or you could upload them to mega.nz or google drive and post the link.

So you'll voice Link, I should still be looking for someone to voice the king's part, and we'll leave the Triforce section as text only?

ohskr27 wrote:    yeah, I just had to walk to the right. I bet she knows. Thanks for helping. I wanted to bother you with one last detail. You tell me if it is too complicated to implement.

At the beginning of the game the title of the game appears:

[/url]

It has a very nice animation where a sword appears and falls and crosses the letter Z including the metallic sound. That title screen is perfect and I would like to keep it as is. However, Is it possible to add the same animation at the end of the game (right after Zelda (Yese) takes the triforce) but with the following image?

[/url]

(This image was made by me using the font of the zelda game in Microsoft Word   )

If the animation cannot be added, is it possible to just insert the image as the background at the end of the game after the scene of Zelda with the triforce? I would like it to go to the end because I don't want her to suspect anything when she starts to play. I know she knows the game, but she played it a long time ago and I know she doesn't remember all the details so she won't suspect anything until she gets to church.

It does not have to be the same image made by me in Microsoft Word, the same font from the game can be used. The main idea is that the text says The Legend of Yese A Link To The Future instead of the original title at the end of the game.

You need to either speak closer to the mic, or adjust your mic's gain so it records things louder.

It would be a static screen, so no animation, but the end results would be equally amazing, for I know just how I'd do it to have the exact same font as the titlescreen.

I can also change the triforce monologue you want to have edited, no problem here.

Only problem with those dialogues is that even if you set them to autoscroll, you still need to press a button to make them disapear, unless you can use asm to make them disapear when they are read completely, so then it switches to music only to prevent the voiceovers to be heard again
