I have a really big wish to create #Amiga related videos on YouTube, but I am having a hard time figuring out the required free time the extra production will take (I already have one YT channel). And everyone told me not to mix topics on one channel because viewers hate that.
The OCS version of Simon The Sorcerer is quite impressive! I only have the PC CD version here, but luckily ADFs are readily available... #simonthesorcerer#retrogaming#commodore#amiga
I'd like to publish a mod file on a adf disc image for fun.
My search engine queries didn't bring much usable up.
I'd like it to be a self-booting adf disc image that automatically starts a minimal mod player (ideally not bigger than 50kb) running my mod.
So I need know-how in
(preparing a) bootable disc
kinda start script
mod player that runs a mod from command line
(or something that converts my mod into an executable that I can autostart)
I'm a Linux sys admin by profession, so I hope I'd understand some basic stuff on the Amiga ;) - on the other hand I have no experience with it. Kickstart 3.x and 1.3 roms and corresponding Workbenchs I have (emulated).
Any help / hints / links to tutorials would help a lot. Anything specific to the point would be a bless. Thank you!
I randomly fallen into Amiga tracker music on Youtube last night and now I'm fascinated by this piece of early electronic music history. Ahoy's video on it was extremely informative not just about that, but also about the early origins of the Demo scenes, piracy and keygen scenes, early game development and music composing. Now I feel like I hit a huge cache of old electronic music that I can try to get into and enjoy.
Okay, so. I am DEEP into the rabbit hole now. Spent the past two days going into tutorials on tracking, checking out different tracker software, downloading mod files, listening to the music, searching up samples (thank you Internet Archive) and more. My brother also went deep, given that he also is really into music and electronic music production, and now we're both bouncing around the walls trying to learn how to make music like this.
I have downloaded FT2-clone, PT2-clone, SchismTracker, MilkyTracker, OpenMPT and Furnace Tracker. Also considered emulating LSDJ, the Gameboy chiptune tracker. So far, my favorite is MilkyTracker, but I think I'm going to have to find some sort of sample organizer software to sift through the couple gigs of samples I downloaded. #Amiga#TrackerMusic
And there we go again! Larry 3 is on. Never played this one either! From the get go it already seems a bit more polished and seems to have more of a musical score, which is nice
Look what came in the mail today! The #Amiga CD32 version of "Rogue Declan" from @nivrig Games! I sense an unboxing and updated review happening this weekend!
