Nice, that should be interesting.

Cool, remember if it's for electric it has to be a full arrangement not just a melodic transcription.

guys, maybe you can help me.
I seem to remember that "A Wish" in Secret of mana played during the whole winter level thing. Am I mistaken? If not, I'll do this one.

I just did some quick google research and it seems that A Wish is a legit winter theme.

kk,central white has its own guitar parts right in the game(i know,i beat it %100 on hard).
so just do the guitar parts(sounds like 2 or 3 in central white) or do both guitar parts and midi translation for the tab?

Sorry I don't really understand what you're asking... :shock:

I'm just saying if it's for electric guitar it needs to be more than just a melodic transcription. Make it something that a rock band could look at and play. So make sure you include at least the lead and harmony guitars, and try to add your own spin to it a little, rather than just copying it from the midi.

I remember a while back I submitted a tab for the winter theme from harvest moon 64... I don't know if that would count though, as it was from a while ago, heh.

You could use that one, but you'd have to remake it so that it includes harmony and such.

I don't have a clue of what song to do. :( I can remember some games that had winters in them, but as far as finding the matching song, and if its at least moderately transcribable, I cannot.

Ah, I finally found this song from FFIX! Its been a while since I played the game, but I think it would be ok for someone to do, since it plays in a snowy place. Anyway, the song plays in Esto Gaza , and I really like it...but I'm already doing twinklies, so someone else can do it if they want to. anyway, here's a link:

2 reasons

1.getting to busy around here because of the holidays and dont even have time to do alot of stuff for more than 5 minutes a day.

2.all the songs i thought of to do for the winter themes some parts are just to tough for me,i'm more of a rhythm guitarist rather than lead.

find the mp3's for the songs on atomic-fire.net for the first 2 and gh.ffshrine.org for the 3rd one...other ones are already songs i thought of are alredy tabbed on here.

the intro for:
megaman x-chill penguin

the solo for:
megaman x8-central white

a few parts from:
sonic 3d blast-diamond dust zone

2 things:

1) I'm postponing the deadline. It's no longer due January 1st. I'm sure we could all use some extra time.

2) I need all submissions to be in either guitar pro, power tab or finale. If you need help getting your arrangement into one of these formats I can help you.

Blarg bleargh blargh.

Due to computer problems, my chances of finishing this are significantly lower. I'll see if I can get some done.

EDIT: Also, Shiver City isn't really working out for me. I'm narrowing down other themes right now, I have several in the queue. I can use the 1999 Linux box for the tabbing, but at a slower rate.

yeah i originally downloaded a video game pack off of one of my friends and most of them were messed up,especially the megaman,final fantasy,and even some of the mario ones.so i started fixing them to sound as close as i could possibly get them and one of the ones i did which is my submition for this is frost man's stage from megaman 8.
i think it sounds more wintery than chill penguin's stage.

Definitely! I've nearly finished esto gaza, I just want to work out a few issues and maybe change up the pattern to this one section...I actually haven't worked on it for a while, but the deadline really helps as a motivator. I'm also very excited to see what everybody else comes up with.

If Enterim and ajrock2000 can post PDFs of their tabs, I can combine all the tabs into one PDF and post it here. I think it's a great idea to make collections like this.

Really? I've been wondering how to do that. I've always wanted to make a nice collection and then package it up in a single PDF and put a nice cover on it and everything. What program do you use to do it?
