Commander Low stands on some steps leading toward the (blue tinted) rocky shore of the alien world. In the background there is a large rock spire.
Commander Low stands on a cliff edge. There is a triangular doorway behind him and a light bridge control panel in front. Below, the water shimmers in the alien sunset.
Commander Low exits the tram sphere. The tram track extends horizontally over the water to the ledge he's on, which is underneath a rocky arch.

Spent even more time looking at guitars and of all the ones out there, only 2 fit the specs I'm looking for.

Of those two, I don't like the look of one and the other isn't for sale in the UK.

So that went well.

@jake4480 It's so frustrating. There are so many guitars out there but so few actual choices. Even the best one I found doesn't have the pickup I want, so even if I got it I'd have to swap that out immediately (I'm 𝘯𝘰𝘵 using a Fishman Fluence).

@jake4480 They're really pushing those pickups HARD at the moment. Evertune bridges too. But I'm not interested in trends and what's popular.

Looks alright from a distance, but if I knew it was going to have to last me over 20 years I'd have taken better care of it.

Some pictures from my ongoing Turok 2: Seeds of Evil playthrough.

Looking at the first (cube shaped) key you pick up, which floats above a miniature pyramid. It has three triangles on it, arranged like the Triforce from Zelda.
Standing in front of a teleporter, which is a cylindrical column of light several feet high. The base which surrounds it, consists of 4 angled pyramids pointing inwards.
Standing in front of a long, narrow, shallow pool with steps. There are large stone sconces on the walls either side. Behind the pool there are two potted trees and a fountain, with water pouring down the back wall and from both sides.

Standing behind a small waterfall in a pool of shallow water, looking through to a ruined house and fiery wreckage.
Standing in a narrow corridor with a teleporter at the end of it. Extreme lens flare extends from a light in the distance.
Standing outside the main hub (which is in space). It's a large, circular stone structure with tall, inwardly pointing columns on the exterior wall. There are several exits and paths leading to the level transporters.

Standing between two winged statues with diamond shaped keys inserted in the bases. A path leads upwards to a now open door.
Looking at a teleporter embedded in a tall stone column with leaves at the top. There are right-angled sets of stairs in all four corners of the room with a fountain in the corner of each of those, facing inwards. Four tall standing torches burn brightly in the background.
A large feather surrounded in light blue flame on a large stone dish (you collect these to unlock special abilities).

An ominous looking open gateway to an Orcish looking wood & stone fortress. A pointy red & blue flag/tribal banner hangs above the open gate. There are several bowl shaped torches (decorated with spikes) on the walls.
A cutscene where Turok stands before the "Spirit Father" (a purple-ish ghost holding a staff) after having placed one of the sacred feathers.
Standing before the level 3 exit portal - A round bluish purple (I'm not good with those colours) shimmer with a rectangular stone arch built around it. A banner with a red symbol is mounted to the top.

A large, green, cylindrical column in the middle of a (mostly) blue futuristic room with bright lights on the walls.
Looking at an alien computer control panel on the left, which is on a raised platform. To the right is a teleporter in the form of a green column of light, which is darker at the bottom and fades as it rises.
A save point pyramid sits on a raised platform, with a small bridge extending out in front toward the player.

A red laser death trap made up of many horizontal lasers extending out in front of the player between two walls.
An alien computer terminal with fancy symbols on it.
A blue forcefield between two rectangular columns, with three bright horizontal lines lies in front of a doorway.

Looking down a wide hallway at an angle. It continues down on the left and there's a open doorway to the right. In the hallway are two alien computer terminals, a destroyed turret and lights... lots of lights.
Looking directly down the brightly lit corridor of the alien ship.
Another green teleporter column in a narrow room, with screens either side.

Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine - Danger (Super Mario World soundfont)

MIDI cover of "Danger" from Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine playing in Evolution Audio Lite with the Super Mario World soundfont

Making midi's lasted all of 6 months. It was a lot of effort for not much point, but... there were still some things I wanted to try so I'm checking what unfinished things I have. I was working on the title music from Alien 3 (Mega Drive) and mercifully, I'd already done the drums so I'll try and get my bearings and finish it.
