| The author says he appreciates a mention when you "steal" his formula, but "his" formula was already used on the amiga a long time ago. It might be useful downloading though if you're a starting 3d coder because the flatshaded 3d engine is very easy to understand. C

| The SDK for the IW chip. The docs are Adobe Acrobat files and are probably meant for printing out. I didn't try yet, but the "univerval translator" at CMU should be able to convert the files to a text format, which would be infinitely more useful. This is one of those everything you needed to know and more type docs.

| Rating:
| Source for a BBS ad with an environment mapped object - It's all asm source, but you need Watcom to compile it. Comes with an extra ASC file format converter. All comments are in Spanish though there's a (shorter) Enlish readme file. Knowing Spanish is very useful for these sources as the comments are good.

| Rating:
| Lots of ASM sources, mostly for hardware and BIOS routines - It's somewhat difficult to find what you want, but the comments tell you what you need to know (but not what you have to do) to get everything compiled. Looks like a great source for the cut & paste coder. Given the nature of the routines, I'd say that was the intended purpose of this release.

| Emulates truecolor modes in 320x200x8. Not really... it just converts the picture to use a 3-3-2 palette. It's a common emulation mode since it saves time versus quantizing a new palette everyframe (maybe in 5 years we could do that, even if we don't need it anymore. :)

16 Fix by Zest /music/programs/trackers/16fix.zip

| | Fixes the problem with loading *.RAW 16-bit mono sound files into fasttrackerii -- having to press "16-bit" and "no" every time you load a sound, can get boring. this program replaces all your *.RAW files with *.IFF sounds, that load into fasttracker without any fuss. The search for *.RAW files is recursive, i.e. all sub-directories beneath the one you are fix'ing, will be fix'ed too .. careful!! the original .RAW files are ERASED. also, if you have other than 16-bit sound files in your collection, you should sort them first, placing your 16-bit files in a seperate directory, before using FIX. This program is freeware. Enjoy :)

Samples from TB Proteus 1/XR by Sam Eassa /music/samples/proteus3.zip
| 10 Sep 1996 (catalog date)
746,435 bytes

| | This is the third of a series of samples extracted from the Turtle Beach Multisound Proteus 1/XR synthesizer. Whereas the first and second collections (proteus1.zip and proteus2.zip) were a collection of melodic as well as percussion samples at 22kHz/16 bits, this one is percussion only at 44.1kHz/16 bits. Based on some good feedback (thanks Jester :-) I kept all samples very basic (no combos or riffs) for maximum usefulness. The quality is also better due to the fact that the sampling was done locally on the multisound as opposed to using a seperate PC. This has yielded some very quiet and crisp samples compared to the first sets of samples. Although the samples are in .wav format, they can be ported to .smp or almost any other using a program such as Goldwave. All samples are 44.1kHz, 16 bit and were created by playing different percussion notes on the multisound, and capturing them live to RAM and then to disk. Post editing was done to optimize gain and remove the dead space.

| | This is the fourth and probably last in a series of samples extracted from the Turtle Beach Multisound Proteus 1/XR synthesizer. In this collection, I've tried to sample unique sounds native only to the proteus synthesizer and that cannot be found in the General MIDI set. I'm hoping to provide the means for the many composers out there to make some truly unique sounding mods. I kept all samples very basic (no combos or riffs) for maximum usefulness. The quality is also better due to the fact that the sampling was done locally on the multisound as opposed to using a seperate PC as was done on the first two Proteus packs. This has yielded some very quiet and crisp samples. Although the samples are in .wav format, they can be ported to .smp or almost any other using a program such as Goldwave. All samples are 44.1kHz, 16 bit mono and were created by playing different notes on the multisound, and capturing them live to disk using the Multisound's own digital audio sampler. Post editing was done to optimize gain and remove the dead space as well as to keep the samples reasonable small.
