I think I speak for a lot of us when I say this: A lot of MPC original compositions NEED to be in Guitar Hero.

As we all know that it'll never happen, I have a request to Frets on Fire users with free time: Make public Frets On Fire charts with original Mario Paint compositions.

I would prefer it if it had 3 playable tracks, (Guitar, Drums, and Bass, with an optional Vocals track for those with microphones (only in songs with lyrics)) each charted after the original MPC transcriptions.

Setlist Thus Far:

buckyboy2009 - Melancholy - Guitar: Gameboy, Yoshi, Swan; Bass: Heart; Drums: Mushroom, Boat; Vocals: Mario
Cat333Pokemon - Cat's Adventure - Guitar: Plane, Piranha Plant, Gameboy, Car, Swan, Star, Gameboy, Flower, Cat, Mario, Boo, Coin; Bass: Heart; Drums: Mushroom, Boat, Face, Dog, Pig, Yoshi; No Vocals
Sparky5856 - Purple Lightning - Guitar: Gameboy, Plane, Pig, Swan, Car, Yoshi; Bass: Heart, Boo; Drums: Mushroom, Boat; Vocals: Flower (Only During Verse, Prechorus, Chorus, and Bridge)
Levus28 - Jubilant Harmonies - Guitar: Plane, Car, Gameboy; Bass: Heart, Dog; Drums: Mushroom, Boat; No Vocals
SuperiorLarxene - Battle for the World! - Guitar: Flower, Swan, Cat, Gameboy; Bass: Pig, Dog; Drums: Mushrooms, Boat; No Vocals
GuruXander6060 - Dance Duel - Guitar: Plane, Gameboy, Car, Pirhana Plant; Bass: Heart; Drums; Mushroom, Boat; No Vocals
cheercomposerxo - Fishing Trip - Guitar: Star, Mario, Gameboy, Boo, Swan, Car; Bass: Heart; Drums: Face, Yoshi, Mushroom; No Vocals
brianLED - The Gallant Knight and the Dragon - Guitar: Swan, Car, Gameboy, Star, Mario, Plane; Bass: Heart; Drums: Mushroom, Boat; No Vocals
EggCelerator - Happy End - Guitar: Plane, Car, Pirhana Plant; Bass: Heart; Drums: Boat, Mushroom; No Vocals
EmperorEmpoleon2 - The Highway Soundtrack - Guitar: Shy Guy, Pirhana Plant; Bass: Heart, Yoshi; Drums: Boat, Mushroom; No Vocals
weraslolreeee - Breaking the Sound Barrier - Guitar: Shy Guy, Pirhana Plant; Bass: Heart; Drums: Boat, Mushroom; No Vocals
Enzanity - Phantasmagoria - Guitar: Gameboy, Pirhana Plant; Bass: Heart; Drums: Boat, Mushroom; No Vocals

If more than one instrument that has a common a track is present at a time:

Guitar: Use the least repetitive. (Boost volume, if necessary.)
Bass: Use the loudest.
Drums: Put them all simultaneously.
Vocals: Use the highest harmony.

If any songs fade out, create a new ending, same SoundFont, same key. (unless you want to do the ending transposing like in those songs from the 50's.) Make sure to reproduce the fading outro without the fade, then build on it after the song completely fades.

Songs on the List that Fade:

Levus28 - Jubilant Harmonies (Key of D Major, Original SoundFont)
cheercomposerxo - Fishing Trip (Key of C Major, Original SoundFont)

I hope to see a satisfying fulfillment!

[achievement:5sqsc890]Came up with an awesome MPC-related idea[/achievement:5sqsc890]

EDIT: Supporters of this idea can post their own ideas for MPC Hero songs, just no re-using composers that appeared in the main setlist already, and no requesting covers of existing songs.

Undecided. The idea looks good on paper, but actually pulling it off is going to be really hard. Why don't you take this to one of the bigger indie game developers and see if they can take on this idea?

How about having the chart split in 4, so they're all charted separately (There would be a Misc. chart as well)? That way you don't have to worry about which instrument plays what, they play what's charted in their part.

@Ningamer: That is a given. Not necessarily the Misc. chart, but obviously everything would be charted seperately.

@isbragg: I don't exactly know how to contact unFun about this.

Levus' Through the Fire and Flames? XD
brianLED's Third Original Composition - I'd love to see what someone could do with the ending xD

Also - Couldn't someone just chart these on Frets on Fire?

1: You quoted my request rules in the post, despite breaking two.
2: Good idea. Time to rephrase the original post.

By the way, Buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo.

Question: Why is it that you can't do fading endings?

It's awkward, trying to chart something that decrescendos. That's why Guitar Hero and Rock Band (side for the song "Come Together" on Beatles Rock Band) write their own outros.
