This is now the third public beta-test release of MIDAS
Module Player. Please check it out and tell us what you think,
but _please_ read the documentation first.
This release finally fixes the Sound Blaster Pro support. The
first version did not work with SB Pro at all, and in the second
version only mono output worked. The Sound Blaster Sound Device
has now been tested to fully work with SB Pro. SB 16 support,
however, is still fully untested, but believed to work, as SB
16 is much simpler to program than SB Pro.
MIDAS Sound System is also now available. Read MIDAS.TXT for
more information about MIDAS Sound System.
Just FYI, here is some miscellaneous information: (you'd be
better of by reading MIDP.DOC though)
Who is S2? S2 is an abbreviation of Sahara Surfers, which simply
means us. We are:
Guru Jarno Paananen Amiga & PC coding
Stratos Janne Oksanen Graphics and Music
Alfred Petteri Kangaslampi PC coding
Switch Teemu Kalvas PC coding
MIDAS Sound System (and MIDP as well) was coded by Alfred and
Guru. In case you want to know who did what, here is a list:
Alfred:
* MIDAS main architechture
* Mixing routines (DSM)
* PAS, WSS and SB Sound Devices
* Most of MIDP itself
Guru:
* GUS and No Sound Sound Device
* Both Protracker and Scream Tracker 3 module players
In addition to this, both of us periodically messed with
each other's code, usually effectively breaking it...
Switch:
* Beta testing and bug reports
Stratos:
* Lots of music incompatible with all players except the
correct Protracker version.
Now you know whom to vote for the charts. ;-)
This is not important. The documentation is. Read it, will you?
