- MikMod 2.10 X-mas WATCOM Release
- ================================
-
- Ho-ho-ho... Just a quick pre-release of mikmod 2.10 for all you Watcom fans
- (especially for those of you who might need it for The Party :)
-
- The most important changes are:
-
- - Batteries included.. ugh I mean binaries included
-
- - You can compile & use mikmod in both C or C++ mode
-
- - Global volume XM effects supported
-
- - The ASM mixing routines are back (twice as fast as the C versions)
-
- - Ensoniq Soundscape driver
-
-
- A few tips
- ==========
-
- - Please don't forget about the /zu switch.. read WATIRQ.DOC
-
- - Use pmodew for your final versions instead of DOS4GW. (faster, better,
- it RULES!)
-
- - Give me some credit if you use it in your demo
-
- - Interpolated mixing is not present in this version.. wait for the final
- mikmod 2.10 release.
-
-
- Shareware or PD ?
- =================
-
- As of version 1.90 and higher (which some people received) MikMod is
- SHAREWARE. Now don't format your harddisk.. This only means that you have to
- give me a small teensy-weensy one-time $25 US registration fee if you want to
- use MikMod COMMERCIALLY. Basically the rule is: IF YOU'RE ASKING MONEY FOR
- THE PRODUCT YOU'RE USING MIKMOD WITH, YOU HAVE TO REGISTER. See REGISTER.FRM
- for more details on how to register.
-
- - Registering MikMod is for binaries only. You're not allowed to distribute
- the MikMod sources or parts of it in _any_ form. If you do want to distribute
- the sources on a commercial basis, you'll need special permission of the
- author (Jean-Paul Mikkers).
-
- - Registering MikMod gives you the right to sell an unlimited number of
- copies of the product you're using it for.. pretty flexible huh?
-
- - Registering MikMod 2.09B means that you're registering all versions of
- mikmod between 2.00 and any updates until version 2.99. This allows for
- bugfixes and updates without the need to register again.
-
- - A MikMod registration cannot be transferred from one person to another, or
- from one person to a company, or from one company to another company.
-
- - Any contributors to MikMod (bug-fixes, new loaders, new drivers) will get
- automatic registration for ALL MikMod versions. I'll decide if your
- contribution is good enough for registration.
-
- - If you're a very poor shareware author and you want to use MikMod, send
- some email with your story :). I'm always willing to negotiate a lower price,
- or some form of alternative payment (like sample CD's, or software or Cindy
- Crawford videos =).
-
- - It's not illegal to register MikMod even when you don't use it commercially
- =P
-
- So you see, I'm not doing this to get rich.. but it would be nice if I could
- buy a couple of CD's from the registration money, or at least get the money I
- spent on buying my SB16.
-
-
- Example sources
- ===============
-
- This version of MikMod includes three sample sources:
-
-
- MIKWAV: Demonstrates the use of the wav-loading capabilities of
- mikmod to use for soundeffects.
-
- MIKMOD: The modplayer.
-
- MIKCVT: Utility to convert your modules to the UNIMOD(tm) format.
