Post-spotlight fixes #002
• Lowered a floating guitar inside the Death Metal Mountain station.

December 24, 2021 (not related to the park; related to the Extras folder):
Clone Hero/Phase Shift note charts
• Replacing the audio tracks in "Park Entrance & Shops (Graveyard of Rock Main Theme)" with the correct audio tracks. It was previously the audio tracks for "Resting Areas". Oops!
• Adding "icon = tdp" and "audio_track = 7" values in the song.ini of "Rockin' Zombifyin' Laboratory".

March 11, 2022 (Extras folder):
• Updating GP5 & GP7 files of "Death Metal Mountain". Just adding octave notations to the second guitar. Side Note: Also in the second guitar during the re-intro, I didn't change this since I didn't want to update every audio file, but I accidentally had ----7-5 (the 5th fret of the 7th string specifically) palm-muted but I do like the sound of it compared to it unmuted so I'll keep that mistake there.

April 27, 2022 (no changes but side notes):
• The awards are in and Graveyard of Rock came in 6th place of the Mini Park Contest 2's Beginner/Builder Bracket... https://youtu.be/TRTmjB4SJbw
• ...and was given the award of Best Music! https://youtu.be/r3F4cWPy4ZA?t=3577 (at 59:37)
• I might eventually make videos on my Graveyard of Rock minipark and songs for it, maybe but I've been lazy and busy with other things.

June 15, 2022 (Extras folder):
• Attached my park introduction YouTube video of this park to this submission.
• Created an extended version of the Graveyard of Rock song "King Skullrock's Metal Concert". So far for it, I made an:
• • MP3 (exported from the new Guitar Pro 8 upgraded software but I may add a GP7 MP3 export another time), GP7/8 guitar tab (the single .gp file for it is compatible with both versions),
• • a Guitar Pro 5 guitar tab version (exported and edited from the main GP7/8 tab file),
• • and a MIDI (exported from the GP5 export as GP8, like GP6 & GP7, is terrible for making MIDIs; why hasn't GP8 fixed the midi issues yet? GP5 is still best with MIDIs).
• • I may chart it for Guitar Hero-styled games another time if I do.

June 30, 2022 (Extras folder):
• Added a vocal pad synthesizer in "King Skullrock's Metal Concert (Extended Edition)" as a background keyboard track as I wanted to make use of the fictional keytar player Zomb-Keytar of the Graveyard of Rock fictional band.
• Added another version of "King Skullrock's Metal Concert (Extended Edition)" that also includes a sawtooth lead synthesizer (that also goes along with the guitar solo).

July 6, 2022 (Extras folder):
• Added an optional video background for the Clone Hero chart of "Park Entrance & Shops (Graveyard of Rock Main Theme)" that is a modified version of the Park Introduction video, moving text to the top (so they aren't hidden behind the highway), changed "LIVE!" to "NIGHT!" text, and few other adjustments. The song.ini file for it has been updated to include extra values, notably a video delay when the video will be played during songplay.

July 17, 2022 (Extras folder):
• Created an extended version of "Park & Entrance (Graveyard of Rock Main Theme)", exported in Guitar Pro 8.
• • The extended version includes a sawtooth lead synthesizer track that plays during guitar solos. An extra guitar (+ lead synth) solo and chorus, and extended the outro with a few more notes. The Talk Box Guitar sounds different because Arobas Music adjusted their soundbanks' sounds when they made Guitar Pro 8 and I get errors trying to export audio in GP7 (on my main PC account unless I switch to a backup PC account).
• • Guitar Pro 8 tab (compatible with Guitar Pro 7)
• • GP5, MIDI, and Clone Hero/Phase Shift/Fret Smasher charts for it may come later.
• Added some lead synth notes in the intro guitar solo of "King Skullrock's Metal Concert (Extended Edition with Lead Synthesizer)" and I decided to use that as the main extended version of the song, deleting the non-lead synth version.

January 29, 2023 (Extras folder):
• After several months of composing in Guitar Pro 8, I finally finished making an extended version of "Resting Areas". The original version I made quickly lazily that I looped twice so I did a lot more things for an extended version: A 5-minute song (currently my longest extended track) with multiple instruments (mostly looping) while composing soft guitar riffs, jams, and a solo. However, I did not like how it sounded in Guitar Pro 8 so I only made a Guitar Pro 7 MP3 Export. The Guitar Pro 8's soundbank had some adjustments since Guitar Pro 7, which could make some strum tones sound cooler or in this case, too accented on clean guitars.
• Speaking of Guitar Pro 7, I finally made MP3 exports of "Park Entrance & Shops (Graveyard of Rock Main Theme)" and "King Skullrock's Metal Concert". After all, I originally made this soundtrack in Guitar Pro 7 and so I needed to put out MP3 exports of my new extended versions in Guitar Pro 7 (including "Resting Areas" that I mentioned above). I wasn't able to before since I've been having Audio Export issues in GP7 on my main PC account but they exported fine on my PC's backup user account. The Guitar Pro 8 MP3s arguably sound better except I prefer the auto-wahs of the Talk Box Guitar in Guitar Pro 7 than in Guitar Pro 8; the GP7's auto-wahs sound iconic for my Graveyard of Rock songs but I have gotten used to my GP8 MP3s. I'll keep them separate.
• The rest of "Park & Entrance (Graveyard of Rock Main Theme)"'s guitar tabs and MIDI have been added.
• Changed the Overdriven Guitar of "Resting Areas"'s Guitar Pro 5 tab and MIDI to Electric Guitar (Jazz) and renamed it to Lead Guitar. I could have done the same to the MIDI track in the main Guitar Pro 7 tab but who uses MIDI past Guitar Pro 6 anyway when MIDI playback sucks in GP6 and newer?
• SIDE NOTE: Still no Guitar Hero/Phase Shift/Clone Hero/Fret Smasher charts for my extended versions yet. I may work on them but at a later time.

May 20, 2023 (Extras folder):
• Quick fix to the Lead Synth and Lead Guitar of "King Skullrock"'s Guitar Pro 5/MIDI outro chorus.

It's video spotlight day! Channel 5 Gaming's spotlight of Graveyard of Rock! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GlZI6KbY86k&lc

I won't be making any major changes post-spotlight but I'll still provide small fixes or issue fixes.

Fixes
• Disabled the Ghostbusters feature.
• • It was accidentally "on" the entire time and that caused rides to be locked from the guests, especially when I intendedly turned off staff and research features (and I uploaded this as scenario instead of sandbox; I'll be sure to convert to sandbox with my future parks). It made a hilarious spotlight video, though! Haha! But it wasn't something I intended to happen plus I don't want to drive anyone else insane so I'm turning it off.
• Lowered a hovering lamp post in King Skullrock's Metal Concert's queue.

Update: Oct 30, 2021 @ 11:34pm

Happy Halloween! This will be my final edit of Graveyard of Rock before I go on vacation on November 4, 2021 until November 27, 2021 (with the new contest deadline being November 21, 2021, which doesn't matter to me since November 4 is my personal deadline).

Additions
• Added a dark mist in the graveyards, forests, and the gator swamp of the dead.
• Added dust at the entrance of caves.
• Added smoke in magma/lava on Death Metal Mountain including its station.

Fixes/Changes
• Lowered some jungle/swamp plants to the ground that I noticed were levitating. (Probably didn't get all)
• Sunk a few exposed lights behind the Abominable Drummer's green bony life tubes (or whatever you want to call them).
• Grouped forest items and the swamp (as "gator swamp of the dead"). It was annoying to re-blueprint rides when they were ungrouped. Not every piece of nature is grouped.

Workshop
• Updated outdoor screenshots that would include the mist, dust, and smoke additions.
• Updated Death Metal Mountain Station and King's Skullrock Metal Concert blueprints with the smoke and mist additions respectively.

December 5, 2021 (not related to the park; related to the Extras folder):
• Slightly extending the ending of the "Musical Mans-Inn Medley: Graveyard of Rock Theme Song on a Guitar" song for the tabs, midis, song itself, and note charts.
• Fixed some forgotten reverse cymbal conversions in the Guitar Pro 5 tabs and MIDI files of "King Skullrock's Metal Convert" and "Rockin' Zombifyin' Laboratory".
• Fixed tempo for the Trumpet Gag section of the Guitar Pro 5 tab and MIDI file for "Musical Mans-Inn Tour Medley".
• P.S. I am finally back in Florida and back on my computer again! A whole-month vacation without my computer.

Update: Oct 20, 2021 @ 6:46pm

• [Mid update] Added another mine cart area to the left of Death Metal Mountain's first chain lift hill and improved the supports for the mine tracks. The tunnel also has a hint for the easter egg.

Update: Oct 17, 2021 @ 6:10pm

• [Minor inclusion] Crocodile pit and (Scary) Save ambiance in the swamp and in the non-coaster caves of Death Metal Mountain respectively.

Update: Oct 17, 2021 @ 5:21pm

• [Major inclusion] Created two mine caves between the swamp and mountain used to hint that there is an easter egg in this park.

Update: Oct 17, 2021 @ 9:32am

• [Major inclusion] Created a graveyard and mausoleum between the swamp and mountain. (Updating screenshots that will feature this new area/building.)
• [Minor inclusion] Adding security cameras to the park and some areas/buildings. (Some of my screenshots will be outdated before security cameras as I didn't think it would be worth going around the entire park again just for that.)
• [Minor inclusion] Added a whammy bar to the Flying V on Skullrock Grill.
• [Fix] Fix the audio file names attached to the speakers within the guitar amps of King Skullrock's Metal Concert.

Update: Oct 15, 2021 @ 7:33pm

Fixed audio speakers on King Skullrock's Metal Concert (reattaching the song with the new file name) and adding a name for Musical Mans-Inn's Floor 3's first room triggers (I call it "FL. 3 Spookiness").

Side Note: In that room, I was thinking about doing more spooky triggers before going into the torture room (maybe do something with the lights) but I'm not sure what would work best. Maybe another time unless if I want to keep it as it is.

Update: Oct 15, 2021 @ 12:53am

Created a Flying V guitar on the roof of Skullrock's Grill.

Update: Oct 14, 2021 @ 10:11pm

Updated the file names of the songs attached to the rides, removing special characters from the file names both within the Google Drive folder and in the mini park. For those of you that tested before October 15, 2021, be sure to either rename the files to the new attached names OR better yet, delete my songs from your UserMusic and redownload User Music.

When downloading zipped versions of my files, the special characters in file names changes into underscores and some of my songs like Rockin' Zombifyin' Laboratory, King Skullrock's Metal Concert, Park Entrance & Shops (Graveyard of Rock Main Theme). The apostrophes and ampersand symbols in the songs' file names convert into underscores when archiving them in a ZIP from Google Drive so I wanted to avoid that from happening.
