Finished models!

-Llibert II:
I finished this two models...according to my work this are low poly models so it doesn't cause any lag, that means that MT is going to work in notebooks and toasters.

-Llibert II:
Yes it still on progress... a lot of stuff is going on with this project and i'm glad to participate on it!
I'm on the 3d part and helping with image files and of course with the lore and other ideas.
I let you some images of my work:

-Mio 3d model (blender)

-Learning to apply textures on Mio (blender again)

-Boy 3d model (blender again)

-Cityscape 3d model (sketchup)

[Unity 5] - How to make seamless loop with introduction part (loop point)

Hm.

Hmm.

Hmmmmmm!

HMMMMMMMMMM!

Meh. Unity 5 just got released today.

Also...

I've reinvented the wheel, I swear.
There wasn't much information in the Internet about seamless loop in Unity. Even less with looping from a certain point of the bgm.
I mean, no information.

So, here's a script I did that solved all of my problems.
[Version 2:
Here (Note the MIT License)

To use it you need to do, somewhere in your code, something like this:

1 2	var myInfiniteMusic = new InfiniteBackgroundMusic(); myInfiniteMusic.ChangeTrack(myAudioSource, myAudioClip, myLoopPoint);

And it should work.

Should.

Btw, referent to a certain comment, if you want to keep a bgm playing between levels...
Type this in the Play function, after the AudioClip.Create:
Object.DontDestroyOnLoad(audioClip);

Don't worry, that temporal Audio Clip is destroyed on each ChangeTrack call.

Again, it should work.]

[I did write some detailed explanation here, but somehow it got deleted. Heck]

A low-count-word (?) explanation:

I retrieve the full contents of the AudioClip, then I play it and when the bgm loops I wrap to the loop position.

Because the AudioSource time sets the time on every loop to 0 and not MusicLoopPoint, I made the Time and SampleTime properties that will return (and that you can set) the correct current time.

Note that it doesn't have Stop, Pause or similar functions. I didn't need them and I though that could be an exercise for the reader.

[The culprit of not having a detailed explanation is a Show/Hide button that I tried to insert here!]

To use it, attach a AudioSource to any GameObject, uncheck Loop and Play On Awake, attach this to some GameObject (can be the same) and drag n' drop the AudioSource to the Audio Source property in the Inspector. You can set the Spatial Blend to whatever you like.
Set the Audio Clip property to some awesome music, and specify correctly the Music Loop Point in seconds.
The Audio Clip must be decompressed on Load and I recommend Preload Audio Data and PCM compression.

Here's the code if the download fails:

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class InfiniteBackgroundMusic : MonoBehaviour {
 [Header("To get/set audio position, use Time and SampleTime")]
 public float MusicLoopPoint;
 public AudioClip audioClip;
 public AudioSource audioSource;
 
 public float Time {
  get {
   long p = position;
   
   p /= entire.Length;
   
   return p * audioClip.length;
  }
  set {
   double m = value / audioClip.length;
   
   position = (long)(m * entire.Length);
  }
 }
 public float Duration {
  get {
   return audioClip.length;
  }
 }
 public long SampleTime {
  get {
   return position;
  }
  set {
   if(value >= entire.Length) {
    Debug.LogError("Value is larger than audioClip.samples");
   }
   if(value < 0) {
    Debug.LogError("Value is lesser than 0");
   }
   position = value;
  }
 }
 public int SampleDuration {
  get {
   return entire.Length;
  }
 }
 
 float[] entire;
 long position;
 int sampleLoopPoint;
 string audioName;
 int channels;
 
 int start;
 
 void Start () {
  double mul = MusicLoopPoint / audioClip.length;
  sampleLoopPoint = (int)(mul * audioClip.samples);
  
  channels = audioClip.channels;
  audioName = audioClip.name;
  entire = new float[audioClip.samples * channels];
  
  audioClip.GetData(entire, 0);
  
  audioClip = AudioClip.Create(audioName + "_Loop", audioClip.samples, channels, audioClip.frequency, true, OnAudioRead, OnAudioSetPos);
  
  audioSource.loop = true;
  audioSource.clip = audioClip;
  position = 0;
  audioSource.Play();
  position = 0;
 }
 
 void OnAudioRead(float[] data) {
  if(start < 64) {
   start++;
   position = 0;
   return;
  }
  int count = 0;
  while(count < data.Length) {
   data[count] = entire[position];
   
   position++;
   count++;
   
   if(position >= entire.Length) {
    position = sampleLoopPoint*channels;
   }
  }
 }
 
 void OnAudioSetPos(int newPos) {
  
 }
}

Never, ever, trust Show/Hide buttons...

Mikeithoria... in YT?

YT?? YT???!

I posted a video, featuring Shadow Flight, in YT...

I'm excited... Why? 'Cuz its my first video of Mikeithoria in YT.

FIRST ONE.

And it's Mio's Theme.

Takayama Mio's.

Heheh.

Next time will be Ayumi's.

Obviously I will not be making a blog post every time for a video... I swear.

Ayumi's Theme, hell yeah!

Nya nya :3,

I've finished another track for Mikeithoria...

Not much to talk about...

Its been only 6 days since Mio's theme and I did this in only 2 days.

Ayumi Hikari, thinking of it, doesn't really makes things cold, she only freezes the water vapor of the air whenever she wants.
Also, this music is not very cold-ish.

Heck.

By the way, I changed (yeah) the number of stages from 3 to 5, plus the EX. This way I have more room for telling the story in the game.

Takayama Mio's theme finally done! (After 2~3 months of trying D:) + Mikeithoria explanation.

Yeah, guys.

One of the protagonists of Mikeithoria has a theme now... wait, do you know what Mikeithoria is?

Nope.

I'll explain:

Mikeithoria is a 2D vertical scrolling danmaku game we're making since a lot time.

I'm programming it in C# and trying to be like Touhou in terms of music and danmaku quality. It will be free (at least the one I am making in this moment, the future ones may be for cash...).

At the moment I don't want to promise nothing more than this: In the future, Mikeithoria will become true.

Why in the future? Because I am a proud slacker.

At the time, the basic history (of the first game...) is this:

Ayumi Hikari (Japan, non-existing city [dunno the name of that city :P]) enters in her apartament and finds that someone stole some things from her, including a certain amulet. So she decides to find out the culprit(s) with the help of 3 friends of her (Takayama Mio, Takayama Naomi and Katashi Kaito).

There will be only (this is our first game) three stages and one extra stage (Megumi Kakashi, her theme is already on my SoundCloud) at the moment (I think I'll change it to, say, 5 stages + EX).

Also, I thought of adding an intro and an outro in pseudo anime style, to make the history more comprehensive.

And, the game is not a one-man-army like ZUN's, there's:

1.- Me, GhoulMage, the programmer, graphic designer, composer and who does all those things the others won't do (buah).

2.- Llibert II who helps in the 3D models and sounds. Also some sprites.

3.- Kinyobyok31, who only helped in the base story.

The theme of Mio that is on SoundCloud will not (probably) be used in this game, but I swear that I'll use it in other game.

What do you think?

PS: The th from Mikeithoria is pronounced like "thief" or "this".
PS2: The Mikeithoria part of Mikeithoria comes from a grammar error that a certain person did: "My history". How the hell can someone do that?
