what's up guys and welcome back to my channel where I talk and do everything pinball so that sounds interesting to you then hit that subscribe button down below the contents of this video are me going through the soundtrack that I have implemented into my last action hero for those out there that are interested. So there you go. The following is version 1.25, and I don't believe I've actually got this version released to the public as of yet. I want to say the only changes I've made between 0.20 and 0.25 is just a little bit of decibel changes in some of the soundtracks, as well as changing the post-multiball soundtrack background music. So that hasn't been thrown out just yet. I will release that in the near future. I think I've had issues with trying to upload it to the actual Penn Sound website. For whatever reason, I keep getting a rejected connection or whatever. It's basically refusing it. I'm not sure if it's a copyright thing or what, but that's where I'm at with that. But I do tend to put this out on certain points in time. I'll put it up on pin side hey i've got it open on this google drive form or drop box or whatever for x amount of days or you could always get it from somebody else that already has it okay so we're going to show off the soundtrack for this game this is using the pin sound card and what's also known as the cat mix this is my mix this is the mix that i have gotten nothing but positive reviews and remarks and comments on. Everyone that has used this mix believes it improves the game drastically, and I take that as a drastic compliment. I take that as a good compliment because I am very particular on my sounds and music, so I felt that the music that I chose for this was in season for this particular title. It goes with the soundtrack as well because a lot of the music is actually just the legitimate soundtrack implemented into the game. Others, not so much, but they still go with the flow of what the soundtrack that they use for this title. So let's get started and I've got no glass on. I'm going to finger this to get it to do what I want. That's what she said? Alright, here we go.
