I’ve synchronized Tchaikovsky’s 1812 Overture to the full length of a Roller Coaster. The coaster twists and turns with the music, as well as triggering special effects that match the beat. The sound of the cannons are coming from the music, not the roller coaster (Tchaikovsky was a madlad). This was a challenging project because the rides in Planet Coaster do not always run at the same speed. I found that the timing changed based on changes to my CPU load or graphics settings. In total, I spent over 90 hours making this video.
The quality of this video was upscaled from HD to 4k because YouTube grants higher bitrates at this quality. I also think it solves some audio shifting issues.
If you’d like to explore the roller coaster and try it out, I post the map files for my patrons:

Note: The music is not integrated into the map itself, but must be run externally. I used VLC so I could fine tune the speed if there was any lag in the game and I needed the music to slow down or catch up.

I love the overture but the standout for me is the actual performance is close to perfection in my opinion - the bits that need to go fast and be rampant are, but the bits that deserve that little bit of extra tension and anticipation are given that opportunity in a way that I've never heard before in any performance... see 2:45 to 3:00 for the most obvious example of what i mean.
Most of the time the last 3 minutes of this piece feel rushed, this version really nails it for me. Wish i knew exactly which performance this was!
