XCAS Upgrade!


Mouse Nightshirt

Recommended Posts

Okey-dokey! I'll think in that direction and as soon as I get inspired or something else comes up, I'll get right to work. Can't say how long it'll take though but hopefully it won't take too long. :blink: (shouldn't be more than a month or so).

Now that is quite a bit better indeed! Keep it up and you might end up on a plaque somewhere :blink:

 

Also I have a single very important question for you Mouse:

 

Can the XCAS BGM be put up as a Wave or MP3 file, since Midi would seriously lessen the music's potential. :dontgetit:

Good news and bad news to report.

 

Good news? IT'S DONE AND QUITE GOOD TOO! YAY!!! :)

 

Bad news? It'll take LOADS of time before I convert it to proper mp3 and I can't even specify the amount of time unfortunately. :)

 

But fear not. I'll make sure our theme doesn't stay at midi. Yuk! :blink:

Well, the latest version of the redo is at:

 

https://www.x-com.co.uk/xcas/templayout.html - Version 0.02

 

As you can see, there is A LOT of work to be done. Buttons need improving, scripting needs work, etc. etc.

 

Ignore the green things moving about the screen. I was testing something.

 

And Loonie, you'd need to get it converted, as I can't use midi files! :blink:

I DID IT!

 

Mp3 Format for your favourite (and only at the moment) XCAS Music!

 

I'll be shipping the versions to you Mouse and explain how the internet site should be equipped with them.

 

(and yeah DH, go ahead and mock me for being such a geek as to make XCAS music, but!......I'm not so much as proud that I made XCAS music as that I am proud that I composed my first mp3 music. :blink:

 

Cheers All! :)

DH, mp3 is the only compressed sound format I can use. I can't eve use midi. It's an option of wav or mp3. Would you prefer a 50MB wav or a 3MB sound file.

 

Loonie. I can't use both files. It makes the filesize far too huge, it's big enough as it is, and I'm gonna have to fiddle with it to decrease the filesize to less that about 600kb (Any more than this keeps away prospective 56k users.)

Okay then. In that case you can dump the second file (XCAS2.mp3) and use only the first. Compress it if you wish, though one more thing is requested (good idea from DH).

 

The ability to turn the music on and off must be made available. That's it as far as this thing is considered and once again I'm sorry for the trouble you had. Heh :blink:
