NeddoFreddo 1058 Report post Posted December 17, 2016 (edited) For people who can't imagine what the song sounds like just by looking at the sheet music, here is a .ogg file of 'Starver's Carol.' Don't_Starve_Winter's_Feast__The_Starver's_Carol.ogg Also it sounds kinda cool played by an organ so here ya go: Don't_Starve_Winter's_Feast__The_Starver's_Carol_Organ.ogg Edited December 17, 2016 by NeddoFreddo 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Because I also just made it because of the same reason, and it looks almost exactly the same! However, I cannot play it, wich software can we use to play ogg-files? Or could you export these to an other music format, like mp3? I'm quite curious abaut the organ version but I don't want to create the sheet again. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm pretty sure Windows Media Player works fine with .oggs, that's what I used.

At first when I heard abaut it, I thought it's just a joke. But that it was confirmed in the stream, I tried it and it's true! It's just lovely! Furthermore, I discovered abaut it, that you don't just get some gift, but it also depends on how did you behave during the time! Normally, you get 4 christmas cookies and two other items (these are usually good, I received a moggles once). However, if you were naughty, you'll get only one cookie and a charcoal! That's it. I recently killed a lot of birds and the next two times I got charcoal. It's amasing how much idea is there in this update! What is this in reference to? You make it sound like presents spawn under the tree - is that really a thing? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yep, exactly! Just try it: sleep on a bed roll next to a tree during a night. You'll hear it, and when you wake up, the present will be there! But it must be dark (around the tree at least), because Santa won't come if there's light. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CaptainChaotica 5688 Report post Posted December 17, 2016 Ohmygod, I had no idea! (Mainly because I rarely sleep in-game...and the tree is near the firepit so it's not dark there. : P) I tried it at my other, "experimental" server...and it worked! Santa left me a present! ...it only had a pair of earmuffs, an eggnog and a back scratcher, but hey! Winter clothing is always welcome when it's cold. ...Notorious 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rellimarual 4183 Report post Posted December 17, 2016 I feel totally gaslighted by this because, as I posted in another topic, items that had been put in chests turned up wrapped in presents under the tree. The two I'm surest about -- the winter hat with the green Santa hat skin and an eyebrella -- I positively KNOW were in the hat chest. However, the eyebrella had not been repaired when stowed, and the one found under the tree was at 100%. The green winter hat I made in autumn, after getting the skin, but stowed for winter, only to find that it had vanished from the hat chest. One of the presents under the tree contained a green winter hat, which I just assumed was the same one. I'm also pretty sure that I had leftover wrapping paper (used to make purely decorative presents filled with twigs) that also disappeared from a chest.

Oh no likelihood involved.

Also did some testing and it also works if dark in a tent. I put one tent around a few trees and had pressies to tear open after the jingle sound. Also seems there are different potential rewards in certain pressies? The odd-shaped ones had coal + chrimbo food/decor and I had a perfectly square green one that was taller than the rest that had moonrocks, gems, and odds and ends. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I also thought that it should work with a tent, but never tested. I allways used a rollbed, because you can place it anywhere, but a tent requires quite a lot space. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CaptainChaotica 5688 Report post Posted December 17, 2016 Some more data: I also got my present while in a tent. I think I did already have a pair of earmuffs in a chest...but none of the other stuff. (I also haven't looked through my chests to see if the earmuffs were still there or not--IS it the same one...or a duplicate?) The present was a smallish lumpy green one. Next time this happens, I'll try to take a picture BEFORE Willow pounces on it like a pack of wild varglings. : P ...Notorious Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
