Pipe Dream but its the mario underground theme (Animusic)

Huge thanks to ‪@zstolfi‬ for the animation template!

[@ladyravendale1]

By far the best part about this is how it follows the original’s pacing. The way the chimes where introduced, the marimba, the camera choices all feel the same, it’s just Mario instead. Very impressive.

[@Mega_Croissantamence]

Seems more like a xylophone than a marimba, no? Too sharp of a sound to be a marimba

[@kuribo98]

@@Mega_Croissantamence The original sound sample is a labeled as a marimba (from a Roland R-8M sound card), but most of the marimba sounds from old keyboards and sound cards sound like xylophones

[@kuribo98]

Here are samples of each instrument from the R-8M for reference: Marimba: cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1039646071640567890/1101261807206793256/R-8marimba2.wav Xylo: cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1039646071640567890/1101261807575904347/R-8xylophone1.wav

[@zackhance2638]

​@@Mega_Croissantamence it's a marimba but they use hard acrylic ubber mallets like the ones you use on a xylo, probably to match the hard balls in the animation

[@danz409]

agreed. if you didn't pay close attention to the size of the cords/strings/tubes you would swore this is the original.

[@mitigatedrisk4264]

I was fully prepared for someone just editing music over the footage from the original, but you full on did the animation.

[@CheeseMiser]

It's just a 3d midi. So it's not as complex as you think. But still glad they put in the effort

[@kuribo98]

If I remember correctly, Pipe Dream was released as a showcase demo for ATI brand graphics cards. This demo was the actual assets performing in real time instead of a pre-rendered video. If you could get your hands on this demo, you could create your own Pipe Dream animations using the actual 3D assets from the animation. I'm guessing that's how this was made.

[@member-berry-bonbons1124]

@@member-berry-bonbons1124 Hey Momo-Chan. Nice to see you again.

[@Butterscotch_96]

What's funny is that the GameCube, Wii, and Wii U all use ATI for the GPU.

[@marioman971]

Somewhere I have an archive of most of the older ATi demo's and screensavers. This one specifically was to showcase the new R300 architecture in the Radeon 9700. Development of R300 was heavily derived from the GameCube's GPU, however the GC is half the size with half the clocks. There's a possibility it could handle this from a feature level but would definitely be slow.

[@MidwestSirenProductions]

Yeah, Animusic is making a return! I remembered seeing Pipe Dreams in its original form, and it was revolutionary for its time. These days, using music to time animations is quite common.

[@jamesmalinowski4033]

Hello, hammer-holding Pac-Man.

[@MA-naconitor]

Everything about this is so well thought out: - The same pacing, tempo and key as Pipe Dreams 1 - The transition into castle theme - And most of all, the fact that the whole franchise of Mario revolves around going up and down pipes!

[@Foxpawed]

I always wished we'd get them to release an open version of the sets for these, because they're all MIDI driven, so theoretically as long as all the notes you plug into it are within the ranges they've animated for, it should be plug and play with just some camera work needed.

[@Virtualblueart]
