$8f6 A REPLY TO SCI`S ARTICLE..MORE HD DEMOS
$f8a BY DAVE DIAMOND OF THE INVADERS

Yes I too think there should be more hd demos on the amiga. I usually
buy alot of pd demos and am always pissed off when the disks are either
ndos or wont run from hard drive. In this day I thnk everything should
go on hd as more people have them. What follows is a list of demos that
I`d like to see go on hd...
Jesus on e`s
Desert dream
Full moon
Nfa-roswell
Complex-seduction and many more (which I've forgotten)
Most wont run because of the titanics cruncher,I`d like to see the demos
of today and tomorrow hd freindly but also run on a standard a1200 and
demos that dont need any fast ram or are fussy about using every single
but of chip mem so you dont have to use no startup,disable stuff etc.
Also look no further than this issue of the word..I`d like to rip the
modules of demos/slideshows and games and listen to them while writing
articles as I love cou music,I know that freak and carnage have to be
carefull because people will use them in their own demos but I
wont...honest! Its also difficult for me to use a ripper as I haven`t
the foggiest idea.
So there you go we want more demos for our hard drives....NOW!!
Also if mok is reading this or anyone else doing hd installers for games
(one that works for mortal kombat 1+2 please on a standard a1200) then
please make them work WITHOUT fast ram as not one pd company has said
that you need these specifacations to use them. Thanks.

[I use a program called Track2File which will take a nDOS disk and
convert it to a file. This process was used in the Superfrog HD
installer program. As for ripping music mods, I prefer Exotic Ripper
GUI but The WORD uses a program called PREPPER which attaches several
bytes to a module's header. Just load the mod (after unpacking it using
StoneCracker) into ProWizard and it will say something like "Possible
Protracker module found" and tell it to save it and it will remove the
header for you! Carnage have some good musicians but they seem to
prefer MED rather than PT so we have some conversion problems. If there
is any music disk creators out there that can handle MED mods then we
have 200 of them unused! Kei]
