(GENERAL)
|
|
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
I had a complete hard drive failure last Thursday. This was a direct result
|
|
of a nasty virus. I have no tape backup, and I had been using my old 40
|
|
MEG drive to store backups on. Unfortunately, this hard drive was also hit
|
|
by the virus. As a result of this, I have lost all the songs I have ever
|
|
written (save the 2 songs for the mc2final intro and the Escape intro). I
|
|
also lost my entire sample library, so it looks like I won't be writing any
|
|
new songs for a while.
|
|
|
|
I will hopefully get some data off of my 40 MEG drive after sending it away
|
|
for data recovery.
|
|

|
|
MUSIC CONTEST 2 UPDATE
|
|
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
The results are in!
|
|
|
|
By the time you get this newsletter, the final results should be released.
|
|
You can find them at /pub/msdos/demos/incoming/mc2 under mc2final.zip. This
|
|
is on ftp.eng.ufl.edu of course.
|
|
|
|
As a result of my hard drive crash (see GENERAL above), the 1st place rookie
|
|
prize will have to be either changed or delayed. I will contact the winner
|
|
and see what to do.

Check /pub/msdos/demos/incoming/democd for UPDATES and information.
|
|
(i.e. More information, cost, how to get the DEMO/MC][ CD)
|
|
|
|
We are down to the final week of work for the CD...we could really use
|
|
help in the areas below if we want to get this out mid October.
|
|
|
|
ART
|
|
|
|
We could still use art by you talented artist out there. Too bad not
|
|
many of you are willing to donate a little time to help our little CD
|
|
project. The art/text will all get put together this week so if you
|
|
do have something to submit get it to me ASAP--dmw@eng.ufl.edu.
|
|
|
|
LAST CALL
|
|
|
|
Last call for demos is SEPT 27-28 if you want your production on the
|
|
DEMO/MUSIC CD--ESCAPE. This is mostly a call for newer/rare demos we do
|
|
not have which people may not have uploaded.
|
|
|
|
MUSIC CONNECTION
|
|
|
|
Can anyone lone me a username/password as I have the lowest status on
|
|
the board with a 25/1 ratio. I need to capture about 7 megs of files
|
|
including the ones below. Maybe some of you can help me out since I
|
|
could not get ROB B. to raise my access. Don't expect much (if any)
|
|
of the stuff below to appear if I can not get another password.

Mike

|
|
|
|
some probs while reviewing demos:
|
|
|
|
* No Lamers Allowed / Paranoids
|
|
This demo was compressed 6 times(!) and one of the compressors caused crash
|
|
every time I run it. So file called "nolamers.zip" is now changed (I
|
|
uncompressed it and compressed only once ;), now it runs ok.
|
|
+ List of compressing programs on NoLamers.EXE:
|
|
PKLITE V1.12, extra compression
|
|
COMPACK 4.4 <------------------- this compression program caused crash
|
|
LZEXE V0.91 or V1.00a
|
|
DIET V1.02b, V1.10a or V1.20
|
|
LZEXE V0.91 or V1.00a
|
|
PKLITE V1.12, extra compression
|
|
* BEATY16 finaly deleted from demo-list
|
|
This demo is not avialable on demo site, so I don't see any reason to keep
|
|
this entry in DEMO-LIST.
