von Lucke Posted December 30, 2003 Share Posted December 30, 2003 And now, for your listening pleasure, we present the musical stylings of Marlene Dietrich singing "Lili Marlene"!* *(OK, so it's only up to the first chorus --- but at 6 MB's, I figured that was enough to replace the CMAK start-up music). For all the music lovers out there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lawyer Posted December 30, 2003 Share Posted December 30, 2003 Excellent choice! Also excellent sound recording quality, which is very important. No more hissy German marches. BUT, you really must post the whole song so it doesn't end abruptly. I was just getting in the mood when it suddenly ended. A person would need to rush into a game before the music ended. True music lovers like to savor the experience. Many thanks, and hoping for an upgrade to the complete version... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

von Lucke Posted December 30, 2003 Author Share Posted December 30, 2003 Well, at 32MB the entire song is a bit much for my lil' 'ol 56k modem to up-load without a time-out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madmatt Posted December 30, 2003 Share Posted December 30, 2003 Oh no, whatever you guys do, DON'T tell Rune about this mod! He pushed hard for that song to be the default music in CMAK but we decided to go with something more dramatic. Madmatt 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, yes, I know the feeling well, having spent ages with my old 56k modem. If you start it before bedtime, it will be done by morning. That always worked for me on downloads larger than yours. And uploads should be about the same. Otherwise, tell us where you got the song. One of us would be glad to put it up for you. Matt, you guys need to go for period feel. Remember the Germans listening to music in their pillbox prior to getting wasted in the "Guns of Navarone"? That's why we need Lili Marlene by VonLucke. It's a great recording. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pcelt Posted December 31, 2003 Share Posted December 31, 2003 Yeah I agree with Lawyer--Von Lucke's recording is really atmospheric and superb but we do need the full works--any ref to this particular version? One of us with broadband or some other such animal could d/l and make available. Cheers 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pud Posted December 31, 2003 Share Posted December 31, 2003 At 6 mb and 32mb Im assuming the file is a .wav file? Any chance of posting the 32mb file as a mp3, it will be ALOT smaller (32mb probably end up around 4mb). Converting to from wav-mp3 is a piece of cake, lots of shareware available for the job. Im on dialup and would love the full version. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

von Lucke Posted December 31, 2003 Author Share Posted December 31, 2003 Frankly, I don't remember where I snagged the version I have from. But it is in .mp3 format, and only 3MB --- I converted it to .wav for CMAK. Since the Afrika Korps site download doesn't seem to be working for some reason (overload?), I can't check if it's the same version I have, so as a public service, I'll post the full .mp3 version at CMMODS. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pcelt Posted December 31, 2003 Share Posted December 31, 2003 Von Lucke---May I say thank you very much for providing the full Lili Marleen zip---really atmospheric and quality version. NB Can anyone recommend a simple , easy to use and reliable MP3--Wav conversion programme ---must be totally idiot proof ... :eek: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
