- Yeah, or I'm going to have to beat you up. With a damp sock. Probably.

- Well, Amcaf can interpret protracker commands so you can sync effects
- to them, I believe. But extensions are out so I've heard. But anyway, the
- actual syncing is not really up to me, it's up to the coder... just tell me
- how many booms and bangs you need and I'll plonk them in there (there's an
- E6x command in one of the patterns with the booms, so you can change that
- to how many credits there will be displayed). The trouble is (and this is
- why you'll need syncing commands) is that on NTSC the module will be played
- faster. Maybe you can alter the tempo of the module to play at PAL speed on
- NTSC?
-
- On the subject of the style of the modules... well, I've started work on
- the title tune (currently only in THX format - I'll convert it into PT
- when it's done) and while it's not exactly comicky it isn't doom and gloom
- either... it's a kind of happy song... ooh but there's a threatening bit in
- the middle though.. :) Anyway, it's still being worked on.. I can upload
- the THX version if anybody wants to hear what it's like at the moment.
-
- (THX is a synth-tracker from Abyss - it's in Aminet somewhere, I believe
- v1.50 is coming out tomorrow, or so I have been told. I used it so I could
- concentrate on the song first without having to worry about samples or
- anything).
