Could that be because American money is worth more here? (what's $199 US is $233.49 Canadian)

I hold the same opinion of Cesar. Which is why I'm wary about the changes he's made to the game since Luke Jensen (former KQ9 leader/founder) left the team.

Just listened to the entire first cd. Beautiful work! It sounds so much better on certain tracks! As a whole it's an excellent conversion. I especially liked the sound of the Druid themes.

I wouldn't care if I signed my own written music away to a company so that a fangame of a genre I wanted revived could see the light of day. No not in the slightest. I can always write more music. Programmers can always write more programs or code more games. Artists can always draw new pictures. That's the beauty of having a talent of art in any form. You can never run out. So what if a small piece of that is signed away from my ownership so that another potential genre-reviving game can be released. I agree that it is a pretty dumb law and is immoral to a degree, but it's well worth it IMO and doesn't really damage anything. Their names will still be given full credit anyway.

Sweet!! I loved that music!!

Wow! That SC 8820 is only $100 CAD! Too bad I won't have the money before the bidding is over.

I am a gamer (I'm actually looking into getting a 5.1 surround sound setup sometime) and I don't make mp3s. Mostly I encode as OGG files. And I'll still have that distorting audio problem because I'll have to use the ATI video inputs RCA jacks for left and right audio. The Audigy 2 ZS Platinum has those built into its front panel.

Used to have DSL. Now have cable.

That's crazy.

I'd like to get an Audigy ZS 2 Platinum so I can plug my GT-6 guitar processsor straight into the front left and right RCA inputs. Right now I'm using the left and right RCA inputs on my ATI AIW 9800Pro and it distorts the audio and I can only hear it if I have the TV program on. That's annoying. I'd like to record without using up too many system resources and with a nice clean crisp un-distorted sound.

How can that be? I had that Microsoft Synth in Winamp with Win9x but it doesn't have the Microsoft GS Wavetable Synth.

Are we talking about the same thing? There's the Microsoft Synthesizer as a DirectMusic output that only Winamp seems to be able to use, and then there's the Microsoft GS Wavetable Synth in Win XP that you can set as the default midi device. It just has no reverb.

That doesn't help for actually playing a game, though.


Oh, really? Not the S-YXG100 or 100plus?

Microsoft GS synth is nice but as far as I can tell it has no reverb support at all that I can see, unless there's some way to enable it.

I've gotten ahold of VSC and it sounds not too bad with MI1 and 2. Next test is to try it with the Sierra games.

I was wondering just how close to the original a Virtual Sound Canvas can sound? Like, if I wanted to play Monkey Island 2 or FOA in ScummVM with VSC, would it sound anything like it's supposed to on an actual sound canvas? Or likewise, Space Quest 5 in Dosbox?

If not are there any soundfonts out there that simulate a sound canvas at least near perfectly?

I was just thinking about this earlier today. I'd be interested to see how Camelot, King's Quest 5, Space Quest 5, and Space Quest 4 would sound.

Very! Although it won't be the same game that LucasArts had developed and cancelled, I'm still looking forward to it!! Sam & Max live again!! YEAAEYY!!

I've got a full fledged website finally up and running with quite a bit of content, now. So I'd just like to plug it for myself.

I've also got some nice forums, so if any of you like my music and feel inclined enough to register and post something, by all means...go ahead.

It is all in midi format and the midi files sit right in the directory unpacked and everything. The game seems to ne just something to make money off of the first 2. The music isn't all that great...no real themes or anything like that. Just ambient stuff. Although for some reason I seemed to really like one level's music which was a little dark but I can't for the life of me figure out why anymore lol. If you really want them I suppose I can install the game and upload some midis for ya or email them or whatever.
