Hello,

I am trying to continue an oooold game is started many years ago, and i am looking at how adding sounds and music to it.
it is written in TPascal, so I first looked to mbwave and pascal library for replaying .mbm files --> very encouraging.
BUT, i dont see anyway to use this library to replay the sfx needed by the game actions, or subroutines for controlling the music ( like fade in& out when changing level & nusic ).
Then i wonder if someones knows :
- if I have to replay sfx on psg on OPLL , is there any pascal libraries for this ?
- is there an improved mbwave replayer library with more controls and possible sfx replay in parallel to the music play ?

Are you now using the stuff by the late Kari Lammassaari?

correct ,found it on msxarchive.nl
but i realize it does not support mwm files ,only mbm.
there is also the dosplay.inc files thar allow sfx replay while playing music,
but sfx has to be in "see" format ,dont know it.

I think i will have to write my own lib ...

I don't know of any Pascal lib for MoonSound, indeed.

SEE is a format and program for PSG sound effects, by Fuzzy Logic. ro loves it. But OK, he wrote it. Check the Fuzzy Logic web site.

MSX-MUSIC? I thought you wanted to use the MoonSound?

For MSX-MUSIC (and MSX-AUDIO) you can use that Lammassaari library for MBM files.

there seems to be no support for moonsound mwm under pascal.
So i am turning to msx-music.
As i previously tol the lammasari libs does not seems to play music +sfx....
only mbm tune

Yeah, for SFX people usually use PSG, so you can use SEE for that. See above.
