| Explanations of some 3d math concepts - I remember not getting the 3d rotations working correctly when I first started programming, but I'm not sure if that's my fault or the fault of the doc. Most of the docs are some simple linear algebra. They spell out the equations in the end for those who can't completely understand them.

| Some basic 3d documentation - I'd never want to tell someone that this doc is a good place to start. The person writing this has no concept of structures, which severely ease the programming of complex things such as 3d systems.

| over conscious about compression ratios and statistics and has many long files about its stats in the /doc directory, but no description about the API. You have to figure out how to use it yourself from the two short examples that come with it. Otherwise, it's fairly complete and you can decide which compression routines you'd like to link yourself (assuming you can figure out that much).

| A DOS extender for pmode asm programming - Has docs for useage and some extra miscellaneous routines that could be used for game or graphics programming in pmode. Honestly, if you want to do 100% asm development for pmode I'd suggest DOS32 or Tran's pmode. The author here credits Tran for some backbones to his system.

| Windows Tutorial 1. Denthor's back with some tutorials on windows graphics program. I (and he) recommend that you still get another reference (like a *gasp* book) if you know absolutely nothing about programming windows and intend to get serious about it. The tut has just enough info to grasp how windows works, the mindset needed for coding, and some basic messages windows can throw at you. Good for the ultra-beginner with windows. (Oh, the example here is a star field)

Good beginning on this demo. Blue fire effect, going into zooming routines to delay dots, to 3-d fire. There are other interesting effects. To get past some parts of the demo the user must press Escape. The music is also a little repetitve at times... Without a GUS I couldn't get the entire demo.

| | What is HammerHead ? HammerHead is a simple TR-909-like drumcomputer program aiming at the dance-scene. You can use it to create perfect Techno-loops, Jungle patterns and real BAD-MOFO-KICK-ASS-NOISY-GABBA-SHIT. What is HammerHead not ? HammerHead is not Shareware, it's Freeware . No frustrating save-disabling, no grayed-out-menu-features, no paying serious money, no annoying messages and most of all NO TIME LIMIT... HammerHead is not a Bossa Nova tool... This means that you won't find any sucky Tom-Toms, Shakers, Cowbells, Congas and Bongos in this box... What you WILL find is cool 909 shit, bad overdriven bassdrums, lotsa snaredrums, claps, and complete breakbeats to spice up the lot. Buckets-o-fun for making Jungle.

Oberheim Matrix 1000 Samples by Soundwave

| | This is yet another sample pack made for those with samplers and high-end trackers. 50 samples are in this pack, all coming from bank 0 (!) of the Oberheim Matrix 1000. The Oberheim Matrix 1000 is a nice little analog synthesizer with classic Oberheim sounds, for those who don't know. The samples were done on a Turtle Beach Tropez. Hopefully this provides a tad better audio quality than the Pro Audio Spectrum 16 (which in itself wasn't bad). Sorry, no loop points or envelopes are provided.
