I have a StarMax 4000/200 clone which, while faster than yours, is not exactly new. I don't really want to see SoundApp become exclusively Carbon as it won't run that fast on my machine, but it needs to have a Carbon version available to continue its useful life. Oh, and if it is ever released, it h...

Akira: SoundApp is getting old, alas, although a new version (presumably Carbon) would seem to be on the way, or was as of February at least. I just checked SoundApp's list of supported MOD formats, and it is pretty large. It does say, though, that "Playback of XM or 669 files is not currently supp...

BuZz: Many amiga games are free to download now. Who knows, the Mac floppy controller might even read Amiga discs, and let me write them out to disc... :P really like BEEBS.. As do I, especially how open and unrestricted the OS was, and how geeky all BBC books were. These days, all the inner workin...

Yeah, it would be nice, I guess. I did get the chance to buy one once, at a computer fair. However, the selection of games didn't include any of the ones I used to play, the Apple green screen was not very enticing (I have no TV to use), and it would only take up more room that I don't have (no idea...

mmm....I like that guy's Battle Squadron music =) I think the game had two in-game tunes, actually - and every time you switched from the surface to underground Terrainia and back, it changed tune, or something like that...? It's been a long time... Apparently, Battle Squadron runs on UAE, not that ...

Re: Playing custom modules on a Mac

BuZz: Welcome to the board :) Cheers. To play an Amiga custom tune on any non Amiga requires 68k emulation... That much is a doddle - 68k emulation is built into my CPU by virtue of the fact that Macs and Amigas shared the same 68k CPUs range. The rest sounds rather more difficult. Either install U...

Playing custom modules on a Mac

I never owned an Amiga (and hence don't know all the ins and outs of trackers and formats) - I just had the privilege to get to play on them many years ago now. I've been trying to track down the music to Lemmings on and off for a while (I was captivated by that sound track), and have only found all...
