Compiling for 2.62 indeed wouldn't be a realistic option. Many of the functions have changed or been deprecated and replaced by better functions that work entirely differently. The entire game would have to be largely rescripted. Newer games use plugins that I don't think would work in DOS either.

Space Quest 6 classic wallpaper recreated from scratch in 4k, 1440p, and 1080p (the original was 1024x768). With and without the subtext. https://www.deviantart.com/musicallyinspired/art/Space-Quest-6-Green-4k-816350449 https://i.imgur.com/Cu50z4km.png https://i.imgur.com/acnGWgTm.png Here's the …
Re: VST - Showing Patch Names vs numbers
Posted on 2019-09-24, 20:50
I wrote a program that took the instrument patch names from an MT-32 SysEx file and created an INS file that Cakewalk can use for instrument names for MIDI instruments. I don't know if INS files work with other DAWs or not...

I recall a program that worked with Windows 98 called Dremples Desktop and it rendered an animated background of warping and shifting colours. It was pretty nice at the time. Yeah, I guess Win10 does have live wallpaper. I wouldn't know where to begin to create one, though. Guess I'll look into it …

I've finally finished Space Quest V's 4k wallpaper and I'm quite happy with the results. Took a while to get the shine-through effect just right. Comes with and without the comet and both come in 4k, 1440p, and 1080p resolutions. https://www.deviantart.com/musicallyinspired/gallery/70666246/space- …

Started playing the original Alone in the Dark with my son a few days ago. Despite its age, it's incredibly atmospheric of course (I have fond memories of playing AITD3 on CD). And it still managed to creep my son out who had trouble watching 🤣. Score 1 for old games.
Re: Avengers Endgame - what say you?

Satisfying conclusion. Much better than a lot of other conclusions and continuations of stories going on lately. I don't get how Captain America got to use Thor's hammer. Isn't Thor supposed to be the only person (technically god) who can use it? Whoever is worthy may wield the hammer. In Avengers 2 …

Looks very similar to something I wanted to accomplish (but which was vastly out of my reach 🤣). I'll definitely be using this on my 486 to replace the cheap hacky hardcoded one I wrote!

The game has been doing well! Getting good reviews. A couple days ago I also released the digital soundtrack on my Bandcamp store. It's a very comprehensive soundtrack with 80 tracks (+12 bonus tracks, some of which went unused in the final game!) in over 2hrs and 20mins of music altogether. It also …

I guess that depends on how you define invasive. If it's to the point of accessing and retrieving personal information, I understand that.

What I did wasn't near that invasive or complicated. I just right-clicked the taskbar-->Cortana and selected "hidden" and removed the search bar from the taskbar itself too. You can still search for local apps by opening the Start menu and just typing, just like Win7. It doesn't search online it …

I just turned Cortana off. I've never heard from her. I don't use the search bar either, though. Removed that too.

Mage's Initiation, a game that's been in development for about a decade and that I scored over 2 hours of music for is finally out! You can pick it up at Steam, GOG and Humble for 10% off! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iLcT8l-G7J8

I was pretty happy with 7. 98SE and XP are pretty solid too, though.
