EDIT: @Jester - I'll link to your submissions, but did you at least ask Oronoco first when you arranged it?

I didn't ask him. As I mentioned in the submissions thread, the Memory arrangement came up when someone informally requested a music box version - turning it into a piano version was trivial.

First version of Spear of Justice is up!

(...also sans. Didn't see Yug_Guy's reply before I finished it...)

It was simple enough and came out naturally from the music box arrangement =P

It's been 2 months since these claims were made, and no visible progress has been made on them, so I'm going to reclaim for myself:

022 - sans.
046 - Spear of Justice

I really didn't intend for this to be do conflicting. I'm willing to cancel my submission in favor of MSF's. I've already got two arrangements on the site, and I like it in Eb minor, so I'll just keep it for my own collection. That said, feel free to take some inspiration from mine if it will improve yours.

One of the reasons why I like the Eb minor version is that the song is very pentatonic, so there are passages of almost exclusively black keys, which facilitates fast playing.

As for doing the arrangement despite the claim, this post along with the broken link to his draft (which is no longer broken) gave me reason to believe he wasn't working on it. So in the interest of getting sheets onto the site, I decided to take it on myself.

I guess you didn't see it, but I posted a draft of Death by Glamour. This would take so much time to edit, though, that I'll probably just finish and polish up a lot of the smaller ones before trying to get this one submitted.

Anyway, I'll leave it to the mods to decide whether to accept my sheet or not. I'm sorry for the misunderstanding.

I compared with a video of game footage; at about 4:00 in this video.

"Casting off" is the organization of the music layout, like number of bars per system and systems per page. It takes practice to do correctly, because you have to worry about keeping the spacing consistent while managing things like page turns (notice how the last measure of page 3 has a resting left hand). Repeats and sections should be at the beginning of a system if possible.

Sometimes you need to forego practicality for ease of performance. This is one of those cases: with 22 systems, I could have done something like 3/5/5/5/4, but that would cause some repeats to cross a page turn. This layout only has one repeat spanning a page, and it's across a spread, so there's no turn. I brought the first two systems to the end of the page to avoid an "end of chapter" look, but this is similarly problematic; according to my references, the conventional practice is to center them, so I'll do that instead.

I'm using the game fight version, which is about 5% slower. Therefore, this version is in Eb minor instead of E minor (since 95% is approximately 2^-1/12 = 1 semitone down) and about 140 BPM instead of 148 (95% of 148 is actually 140.6 but 140 is a nicer number  than 141).

Oh I'm sorry, I thought you did because the link is broken in this post. Dropbox says the file doesn't exist so I assumed you took it down.

I decided to make my own version of Death by Glamour. I made it from scratch, since mastersuperfan took his down. Going to make the MUS file after my exam.

Seems like there's always a couple of extremely difficult measures. In this one, it's 49-50.

Hey! So I'm currently arranging an Undertale medley, and I'm trying to make it possible to only use NSM sheets for my project (since this website is so awesome). I've started with the start menu theme, and I plan on using Latios212's arrangement of "Home", and I'm definitely using "Snowy", but I'm wondering if anyone has done Papyrus' theme (or "Nyeh Heh Heh!"), His Theme (or "Undertale"), or the Nastablook Theme (aka "Ghost Battle Theme.")

P.S. The project's going along great. Nice job guys! Especially you, Yug Guy.

I've done Bonetrousle, which is like an extended version of Nyeh Heh Heh!

Oh if you're using MBC I can just give you the MBC file.

By the way I also did Home (Music Box)

That's good, but it looks like you don't link to the sheet music in the descriptions of your videos. So it's great that you're doing it, but I was hoping to get the sheet music so I could play it on my own music box, instead of just a video of someone playing it.

I don't think you understand. I'm a nice jester.

(Note that the music box version plays in C, whereas the original is in E)

I suppose I could make this a full-on submission to the site.

I know of a music box that reads notes off of holes in a slip of paper, letting you make custom songs. I've been wanting to make some undertale papers, but there's a problem. The sheet music being made are too complex. Some notes are out of range for the music box, some notes are too close together for the holes to be separated, most of them have baselines that aren't suitable for a music box, etc.

I was thinking of making a request thread for musicbox-friendly UT sheet music, but I get the feeling people will jump down my throat for "making a request thread for something already being worked on" without reading that there are rules to my request that make it different.

So I was wondering if anyone could alter some of the sheet music here to turn it into music box sheet music. These are the notes available. Basically, I need the actual notes, without any baseline (As an example, the baseline of "Spider Dance" is far too fast for a music box, but the normal notes are a good speed; whereas "Death by Glamour" would become unrecognizable if enough notes were removed to be playable)

These are the songs I'm hoping for:
"Memory" Want this one the most ("His Theme" is too complex for the music box)
"Home (Music Box)"
"Oh! One True Love"
"Spider Dance" (Not a priority for me)

This is the music box I'm going to get if I can find suitable sheet music

Mmm, you're in luck, dear.

I've already made Bonetrousle for music box, but I haven't uploaded the video yet. I can start working on those songs in due time.
