-
- 1.96 : DMPC now recognises MTM and can rip 8-bit MTM samples, same support for
- 8-bit ULT samples (ULT ripping may be buggy still) and 8-bit FAR (My
- FAR routines are untested 'cause I don't have any FAR modules!).
- My internet access is now back but not stable, so my not answering your
- email isn't because I don't care, it's because I'm not there!
-
- NOTE: The config has changed a little: A = AMF and F = FAR.
-
- 1.95 : Added selective tagging/untagging. Added config option ALWAYS_REREAD,
- set it to TRUE and DMPC will re-read the current directory every time
- the filemask changes. Added option to rip samples in 8-bit unsigned
- format (.RAW). Added better error checking into sample ripping and
- playing routines. Ripper now supports AMF (thanks Otto!). Added
- option to rip samples to Windows WAVE, SoundTool SND and Creative Voice
- VOC files.
- Added PAS & GUS support but it kept crashing, took it out again. This
- is probably the last version of DMPC that'll be written because I'm
- loosing internet access... keep the postcards coming though!
-
- 1.94 : Fixed a problem that occured when DMPC tried to read a broken archive.
- Put the sample number next to sample for easier reference. (Not
- released to the public).
-
- 1.93 : Fixed a bug that was re-introduced, DMPC was once again not ripping
- multi-chan MODs correctly.
-
- 1.92 : Fixes the garbage that used to appear in sample names. Fixed the
- accelerated clock problem, it now keeps the clock fairly accurate. If
- you have been experiencing lockups when using DMPC, set STACKS=9,512 in
- your CONFIG.SYS, this should solve the problem. Fixed problem with
- sample 1 in S3M files. Added 669 sample ripping routines. Fixed
- problem with PLAYER option in config, you can now specify the full path
- for the player (speeds up selection in multi-configs). Added ablility
- to specify paths of archivers in config for faster loading. You can
- now specify where you want DMPC to read by default in the config with
- the new START_PATH option. Added STM ripping routines (doesn't do the
- Repeat Length properly yet).
-
- 1.91 : Ripper now supports Soundblaster for preview functions. RIPPER_DEVICE
- & RIPPER_DMA added into config for SoundBlaster support. Added ripper
- routines to rip samples from S3M files.
-
- 1.90 : Added MOD sample ripper & preview functions. Added RIPPER_DIR &
- RIPPER_PORT into config. Preview the samples through PC Speaker or a
- DAC on a parallel port.
-
- 1.81 : The bug with the TEMP dir for extraction has been fixed. Fixed a bug
- in my LIMIT reading routine, it only read the first file in the
- archive. (I seem to have released DMPC v1.80 in the 1.81 archive... oh
- well...)
-
- 1.80 : Fixed a balancing routine in the selection menu (gave one out in a
- special case). DMPC will read only the formats in the inclusion mask
- if you (re-)read a directory. Swapper will swap to either the temp
- directory defined in the environment variable TMP or TEMP, or to the
- temp directory defined in the DMPC config (in that order). Support
- for Squeeze It (SQZ) archives. Reading uncompressed files should be
- faster now. Fixed a bug in the play tagged routine. Changed config
- into a more flexible INI-type format. Use CTRL-C for a fast change of
- directory on the current drive. Use CTRL-D to delete all tagged files.
- You can specify the directory DMPC will start up in on the
- command-line, eg. DMPC \MYDIR\MODDIR.
-
-
- 1.73 : Support for LIMIT archives (.LIM).
-
- 1.72 : File inclusion mask for different players 'cause some players can't
- play S3M etc. Added WAV/SND/VOC support (no validation is done on
- the files though).
-
- 1.71 : Made DEVICE NAME longer. Fixed two non-critical bugs with config.
-
- 1.70 : NST supported (finally). Full path searching. Extracts to temp
- directory. Fixed change drive & screen clearing bugs. Archive
- searching speeded up (again!). Amiga type mod name MOD.NAME format
- recognised. Improved find to do partial matching inside names if no
- partial match was found on start of name. Can now delete files from
- inside archives. Read 1000 files in any directory. Multiple config
- definitions. F10 to swap to DOS.
-
- 1.60 : Added ZIP support. DMPC logo by Sand. Optimized archive searching
- routines. Re-read current directory. Switch to/from 43/50 line
- mode. Change drive. Fast find routine. Help page.
-
- 1.51 : Fixed a nasty bug that deleted non-archived files once played.
-
- 1.50 : ARJ/LHA support added. EMS/XMS/Disk swapper added. Directory
- changing (for all the people who love their subdirectories) has been
- added. STM files are now read in (but I only was able to test it on
- converted MOD files). Use DMP or PMP according to your needs.
- 43/50 line mode is used when detected. Load/Save tag selections.
- Fixed some small bugs (some of which were bigger once I opened the
- hood to have a look at what was causing the problem).
-
- 1.40 : Mouse support!
-
- 1.30 : Support for 669, AMF and S3M added, sequential tagging, delete
- function.
-
- 1.20 : Fixed a few bugs in previous releases.
-
- 1.10 : Added HOME/END, PAGE UP/DOWN, elementary tagging, multiple play with
- or without random selection.
-
- 1.00 : Original release.
