| Zed 3d - a document explaining the maths you'll need for 3d. Word and postscript formats of the same file. Zed has an attention to detail and a great way to explain all the math. I highly recommend this to anyone starting to make a 3d engine who doesn't know where to start (start with the math, not the polygon fillers, believe me! the fillers are trivial in comparison). See the bibliography for where to go next.

| Source for making a keyboard handler (int 9) and reading the keyboard from the handler - Doesn't tell you much, but is a good demonstration. I'd suggest for those needing to write a keyboard handler is to get a hardware reference for the keyboard and see what other options are available and how the code works.

| A Pmode kernel program with some extra libraries. Has a sound library and many other extras to make up for the fact that it's rather new and things such as midas, GUSPlay, or whatnot won't work with it. It's picky about assembling (tasm32+wlink only). No real documentation to help you get started.

If using DirectX 5, you have to change two lines in DirectXConversion.cpp to type cast to (DirectDrawSurface2 *). When you try to compile, you'll know which lines those are. Hmm... maybe wince stands for Win-CuteElf. (If you see this, are you going back there?)

| | What is HammerHead ? HammerHead is a simple TR-909-like drumcomputer program aiming at the dance-scene. You can use it to create perfect Techno-loops, Jungle patterns and real BAD-MOFO-KICK-ASS-NOISY-GABBA-SHIT. What is HammerHead not ? HammerHead is not Shareware, it's Freeware . No frustrating save-disabling, no grayed-out-menu-features, no paying serious money, no annoying messages and most of all NO TIME LIMIT... HammerHead is not a Bossa Nova tool... This means that you won't find any sucky Tom-Toms, Shakers, Cowbells, Congas and Bongos in this box... What you WILL find is cool 909 shit, bad overdriven bassdrums, lotsa snaredrums, claps, and complete breakbeats to spice up the lot. Buckets-o-fun for making Jungle.

Samples from TB Proteus 1/XR by Sam Eassa

1,495,900 bytes

| | This is the fourth and probably last in a series of samples extracted from the Turtle Beach Multisound Proteus 1/XR synthesizer. In this collection, I've tried to sample unique sounds native only to the proteus synthesizer and that cannot be found in the General MIDI set. I'm hoping to provide the means for the many composers out there to make some truly unique sounding mods. I kept all samples very basic (no combos or riffs) for maximum usefulness. The quality is also better due to the fact that the sampling was done locally on the multisound as opposed to using a seperate PC as was done on the first two Proteus packs. This has yielded some very quiet and crisp samples. Although the samples are in .wav format, they can be ported to .smp or almost any other using a program such as Goldwave. All samples are 44.1kHz, 16 bit mono and were created by playing different notes on the multisound, and capturing them live to disk using the Multisound's own digital audio sampler. Post editing was done to optimize gain and remove the dead space as well as to keep the samples reasonable small.
