19:58 Probably my favorite track in the entire soundtrack. I remember spending entirely too much time in the tech room just looking at everything the game could possibly throw at me. Good times. :)
Fun fact Clint Bajakian after lucasarts went on to work with naughty dog, he composed Uncharted golden abyss on vita and worked with other composers on the trilogy, he is head of music and music tech at Sony game studios. His most recent work was on Return to monkey island. Lucasarts was in my top 5 developers from the Amiga days to the pcs golden age in the 90s.
I just learned about TFCT and that there is a remastered soundtrack! OMG! Thank you so much! I loved the music as much as the game. Without it it wasn't the same. I still love listening to it without the game. It is one of the few good examples where they composed new music based on the original score instead of only using the movie score (which totally not fitted such as in XvT). And not many games supported music changes depending on ingame events as much as Tie Fighter. I am SO glad that the remake received the original music pieces instead of just the usual movie Orchestra and kept the imuse system! Well done!
Thank you for bringing back this fantastic music where today's Star Wars lovers can experience it. Back when I played the original Collector's Edition I'd fly around after finishing a mission just to listen to the victory themes. Then I'd visit the Tech Room, not because I needed info about the ships, but just to enjoy that theme again. The whole soundtrack felt so cohesively part of the Empire from the movies that even those primitive PC graphics felt completely immersive.
It really is superb to hear the extra depth which I bet the composers could hear in their minds in the 1990s. And now here it is full and complete with all the stuff buried in the game files. Hats off.
Well done to Lawnie and everyone involved, having the cd audio version of imuse working with this game is incredible it really helps sell it when ships arrive and battles change. The sound blaster 16 version of victory has been an ear worm in my head since the 90s which shows how many hours I poured into this on release.
20:00, tech room! great memories! loved this, i could hear it for hours, I remember I used to have the midi interface, with a Proteus and a DX 11 keyboard to listen to this!, was beautiful!
I've always loved the original TF-soundtrack. One of the first and for a long time only Star Wars games to really have original music, only recently to be picked up by the likes of Jedi Fallen Order and Squadrons. Imagine having it played by a real full orchstra, though. That should be the next project. We should found the "Classic Gaming Enthousiasts Orchestra". I volunteer to play one of the violins.
In around that era Shadows of the Empire (the multimedia project at large) had a standalone orchestral soundtrack by Joel McNeely, which had one or two tracks partially included in the video game. Dark Forces had its own, but I don’t remember it as strongly as TIE Fighter. And Rouge Squadron on N64 had an original soundtrack, dynamic to some extent as well. But yes, I think TIE Fighter did it first to this extent and in many ways, probably the best.
Tie Fighter and Dark Forces also had original music by Clint Bajakian but yeah, then it was a long while with just edited John Williams soundtracks. Bajakian got to do original orchestral music for Indiana Jones and the Emperor's Tomb, and there was original music by Mark Griskey in the KOTOR and Force Unleashed games.
The composer of the music for Wing Commander III did a successful Kickstarter to fund an orchestral recording. I would back the hell out of such a project for this music!
Would love to have the rebel arrival or empire arrival as notification tones... Those sounds have stuck with me since playing the original tie fighter back in the 1990s, great work on the game absolutely mind blown
The sound track remake is masterfully done! Done by getoffmylawn correct? The grip I have with it is that it doesn't flow the greatest at times, but this isn't the fault of the mod, but X-wing alliance itself. For example, "inflight victory", you'll never to get hear it all in game, it'll cut off around 15-20 seconds in and goes back to "inflight wait state". So the only way to hear the entire score is here on TH-cam, which is a shame, but again, I don't think there's anything that can be done about it as it's an x-wing alliance issue. Overall, all I can say is, thank you to everyone involved with this and all your hard work, we don't deserve this masterpiece for free, but we got it anyway. I wish I heard about it sooner and was able to help out or participate somehow.
be cool if when the Tie Defender enters the battlefield you get an Imperial Rif on the 2003 General Grevious theme. "SURELY REBEL SCUM, YOU MUST REALIZE, YOU ARE DOOMED!"
Full speed to Killimar!!! Thank you so much for putting life back and nostalgia back into this!! Now I really want to play this again just to be able to hunt down "rebel scum"
Hahaha yeah, the Missile Boat was super OP, especially when you just reload and have target lock on a capital ship and just fire heavy rockets whilst being reloaded.
Thank you so much, James and Jason. This is by far the best remaster of the soundtrack. And I have know them all over the years ;) The instruments in tracks like the Simulator Room/ Combat Chamber-Theme are best prove of that. Keep going! Kevin
X-Wing, yes. XvT, not so much. No single player and for multiplayer there are better options out there. Never cared much for XvT even when it came out, tbh.
@abaezarojano Hi, I just checked the link and it seems to be functioning ok for me and people are still joining the server in a steady stream so I'm not sure what might be wrong for you here. I'd suggest some googling to see if there's some kind of common issue regarding this.
It's arleady been done with Xwing! Look for Xwing Virtual Machine. Also, look for the awesome soundtrack redone by Laserschwert in SoundCloud. Absolutely fantastic.
I love this remastered sound-track... brings back so many memories and yet elevates the original music to a higher level. One critique from a muscian's pov, I wish some of the background instruments hythm elements were more straight forward, like the piano\guitar... I feel like it gets covered up regularly by the glorious brass and strings. Overall, I give it a 9.5 out of 10!
I'd be good with that, but I vote for 16:32 Simulator Room... still has recognizable elements of the Imperial March, but jazzes it up in a classy way, haha.
Well done, it was done so artistically.. Edit to confirm your next summoning to Coruscant, something about promotion. By the way,the moron that "thumb down" you ,(a certain cadet Solo) will be soon reassigned to the infantry.. Sincerely Yours: Commodore K'riiran Almudin.
I've been really enjoying this game. The remaster is a great achievement from a varied team of enthusiasts working together for *such* a long time. I had to turn collisions off and set the difficulty to 'easy', and even then I had to skip mission 2, but that's OK. THANK YOU to everyone who made this possible and congrats all.
@@ange1uk no, thank YOU. I don't understand what's going on beneath the hood, but the car is beautiful. I love the attention to detail (for instance, the emails in your quarters) Here' some criticism: During the missions, the spoken instructions are quite quiet, and I can't work out how to turn them up. I preferred the original game briefing room. Also, and I know this is a symptom of the original game not including voices, at all, but the spoken briefings are too long and repeat too much of what is stated in the visual briefings. I love the Tarkin-like way he rolls his 'r's and the briefings officer serves his purpose, but I preferred the 90's guy. Maybe he could just occasionally sound a bit ruthless and evil? Also the voices in the briefings/debriefings are a tad too loud, even when I turn them to minimum volume.
@@CBfrmcardiff Hi, glad you're enjoying it :) Bear in mind that TFTC Reimagined is all new voiceovers but TFTC Classic has all the original voiceovers and audio. As for the briefings, its more a case that the spoken briefings give more context to the overall story while the map briefing is more specific. Audio wise, you can adjust most of this in the ESC menu though the briefing voices for some unknown reason seem largely unaffected by this.
"Enter your name, pilot!"
19:58 Probably my favorite track in the entire soundtrack. I remember spending entirely too much time in the tech room just looking at everything the game could possibly throw at me. Good times. :)
I hum this all the time :)
The total conversion tech room is even better, with an absolutely enormous selection of ships.
Haha, same here! Even after so many years, I still hum that track sometimes.
Combat chamber, or polar plotting. Having Thrawn show up, to back you up, is always a plus.
I loved how IMUSE changed the music on the fly. However i can live without it, just so glad to see this remastered.
It still does this in the TFTC mod though not quite as dynamically as the original TF :)
@@ange1uk you guys are awesome
@@willd3rbeast hear hear!
iMUSE set the stage for all the modern music technology we have in games. Pretty interesting.

I couldn't bother with the CD version of the game since I didn't have the IMUSE system. The music is such a definitive part of TIE Fighter.
The CD version, is IMUSE!
@@johnpettit6886 the original "collector's cd rom" yes, but not the "98" version.

INTENSITY INTENSIFIES
Great work!
Thanks for uploading this. Brings back memories of being the Emperor's stool-pigeon.
LOL!!!
Even funnier since you are actually called that by admiral Harkov.
ABSOLUTELY love the heroic rendition of the Imperial March during the Title Crawl.
it's just so rare for SW games to deviate from the classic opening crawl
I am swelling with imperial pride....
For the Emperor!
The soundtrack was one of the est things about the game. Bravo.

Alpha 3, your flight is gone and youre the only one left. Were counting on you, dont let us down
thank you bro. Decades i wait for good remaster
This sounds fantastic! 😃😃
I bet the Cosplayers of the 501st legion would love to do some trooping with parts from this soundtrack. 😊

Yes, someday want to get enough funds together to just have everything re-scored and recorded by a live orchestra.

@@Chungus_E_Mungus I think its not that easy as we think it might be, sheet music has to be made for the score for each instrument.

Best parts of Music 40:40
47:52
Hard agree on the 40:40.
@@eric_the_lit thank you
Everytime I hear this I always wanted a Tie Fighter series based on the game
Would love to have the rebel arrival or empire arrival as notification tones... Those sounds have stuck with me since playing the original tie fighter back in the 1990s, great work on the game absolutely mind blown
Good news then, we plan to release the soundtrack including all the individual ship arrival/destruction tones :)

WE ARE HERE TO HONOR ANGEL WHO HAVE SERVED THE EMPIRE!
I definitely need all the inflight tracks to play them at a random infinite loop!
Full speed to Killimar!!!
Thank you so much for putting life back and nostalgia back into this!! Now I really want to play this again just to be able to hunt down "rebel scum"
And 2-3 missions afterwards you pilot the most OP fighter in the galaxy
Hahaha yeah, the Missile Boat was super OP, especially when you just reload and have target lock on a capital ship and just fire heavy rockets whilst being reloaded.
