An easy way to have 'retro' music in your games

[Plutogeezer]

Hi,
This example shows how to make beepy retro music for your games, like on an old computer. It's easy to use with a block like system.
Feel free to use it in your games. No need for credit (Although that would be nice :-p )
How to use
The counter controls the duration of the notes. It won't work on a non-NT based OS (Win 95, 98), or if you don't have an internal speaker (I think most laptops don't).

Enjoy [grin]

Cheers
James

It needs Gabriel's beep object availiable here.

Cannot find sctrl.mfx, but it seems to be based on My example, isn't it?
Edit: Ah... Didn't see the link :P
I'll check it now

Hi,
Whoops! I didn't know there was another example availiable[crazy]
Anyways, an upgrade!
2 new things:
1)The bug with the suddenly shorter notes has been fixed
2)The example song is now the first bit of 'ode to joy'.

Enjoy[grin]

Cheers,
James

Yay, finally an example that uses my beeper extension.

I guess for oldschool chiptune music it's easier and better to use trackers: a player is built into MMF, works everywhere and you needn't invent a format and stuff, you can just download a track from somewhere and include it with your game.

Although there might be a use for beeper object in other cases.
