| Slams: 2652 | you mean that everyone can see wich remake is in progress by wich coder?

Stormbringer | 23-02-2010 09:58 | | Slams: 5896 | @nzo: go ahead mate! the hunting season for remakes is open all along the year. BTW, I'm still wondering what would be the best mechanism to reserve remakes among all the coders here.. any idea?

| Slams: 2652 | this SPREADPOINT one is very cool..would like to see it here

| Slams: 1296 | hehe.. tell me about it
Some very strange trickery on some old intros! |
Stormbringer | 21-02-2010 19:40 | | Slams: 5896 | and of course, expect more from 87-89 very soon 
http://www.retro-remakes.net |
Stormbringer | 21-02-2010 19:35 | | Slams: 5896 | @nzo & hardrider: after a few remakes (hum hum hum) ...the 87-89 ones are the most difficult to remake... it's like the coders were putting everyhing on screen and decrypting their work more that 20 years later is not so easy

Hardrider | 21-02-2010 19:18 | | Slams: 662 | @Nzo: This is also my favorite time period. So many hours lookin' at those piece of code wondering if a day I will be able to make the same :-P Now these days are comming.. and there is still a few where I wonder how I will do them :-P |
| Slams: 1296 | Great to see the ranks of 87/88 being converted in numbers here This was my favourite time for intros and demos where people were starting to get familiar with the amiga and new fx and techniques were coming thick and fast. (except the bob race, which was mostly boring) |
Stormbringer | 18-02-2010 19:20 | | Slams: 5896 | @nzo: yes
@Tetra: if you get a chance to read this...and if you have some time, it would be great to add the alphabetical index in the Search page ... and if you have more time, we can discuss about the families/groups thing about intros and their dupes. I finally got a good solution.

| Slams: 1296 | Shortly, we may have more remakes than members |
| Slams: 2652 | very interesting !!! thx for the link DD

DonaldDuck | 14-02-2010 21:59 | | Slams: 244 | Here some interviews to look at.
N.O.M.A.D.,Gaston,Strider and many more.

| Slams: 883 | That'd be great! And thx in advance. You can use the email displayed in my Facebook profile. |
Stormbringer | 14-02-2010 19:07 | | Slams: 5896 | I can email you some source code for creating the actual SC68 file from the 68000 assembled binary, it's in C but it's not that difficult to understand..
http://www.retro-remakes.net |
| Slams: 883 | AFAIK SNDH playback uses the SC68 lib. And it's a piece of cake to create an SNDH file on the ST, since there is a nifty tool for it. That's what made me think that something like this could exist for SC68 files too. Thanks for explanation mate, I'm - even if I'm probably never ever gonna be able to do it myself - enlightened now about the creation of SC68 files. |
Stormbringer | 14-02-2010 18:56 | | Slams: 5896 | well, SC68 is not a file format for storing sound/music. It really is an emulator for 68000 along with the emulation of the audio chipset of the Atari and the Amiga (well, almost 100%).
In any cases it runs the native 68000 code, unlike the other libs mentioned. That's why it's not so "easy" to create a SC68 file.
I almost use SC68 for every tune (except MOD files) because on the Amiga there are lots of different replay routines and tons of "custom" and "synth" music formats, that have never been ported to PC (AFAIK only 2 or 3 like FutureComposer, AHX and SoundMonitor had a replay routine on PC). So in most cases, the only way is to emulate the original replay routine (which sometimes has to be ripped off the original binary because the source code has been lost, see the music for the game Hybris for example...)
http://www.retro-remakes.net |
| Slams: 883 | Yup, thx I know that. I used it in my first TEX remake. But usually SNDH and SC68 playback sounds much better than YM because it sometimes misses a lot of music information due to the way it's created. But it's okay most of the songs are available in SNDH (or at least convertable into) anyway. It's just that I've been curious if there was an easy way to create an SC68 file in case some format couldn't be converted into SNDH. |
Stormbringer | 14-02-2010 18:42 | | Slams: 5896 | probably you know about this already, but for Atari music, this is a good alternative to SC68:

(source code available of course)
http://www.retro-remakes.net |
| Slams: 883 | Fair enough. I know that site. I'm probably too stupid to figure it out at the moment then. haha I thought there'd be an easy way to do that, just like creating SNDH files. Nevertheless thanks guys! | |
