It Came From The Desert bad rip?

Post by AmigaMusicLover »

Hello, I'm posting this in the hope someone knowledgeable could provide a complete rip of this beautiful classic, I was unable to find one. Or perhaps I'm doing something wrong. :(

Here's the problem of the current rip, found here. Exact same problem with Antheads. Many tunes will not play properly, it sounds like only 1 or 2 audio channels are played. Tested with DeliPlayer (Sonix Music Driver player) and DeliTracker 2.34 (Sonix Music Driver) on WinUAE.

List of problematic files: (I might have missed some)

tiny.end
tiny.farmers
tiny.generic 0-4 (I think these are ok, but not 100% sure)
tiny.hospital
tiny.ice
tiny.military
tiny.overhead2

You can download here two mp3 files, where you can hear the hospital tune from YouTube's playthrough and how it sounds in the rip.

Ey up!

Many thanks for submitting this.

I'll check through this and try and find out what is causing the problem.

If it's an issue with the replayer, then I'll let Don Adan know about this, as he adapted the replay routine. :)
Cheers!

I forgot to tell you that I'd already contacted Don in the past about this (around 2012), so maybe it wasn't a good idea to bother him again. :)

I remember that he knew what was wrong (something about shorter/modified samples). Hope someone comes through for this mighty classic and the Three Stooges... Don't know if Lords of the Rising Sun is available and ok. The current Cinemaware team is most probably not up to the task.

No love for these classics... a real pity we only have a crippled It Came From The Desert rip and nothing for The Three Stooges and Lords Of The Rising Sun.

:(
