- BARTEYES II -- The sequel
- -------------------------
-
- BARTEYES II is pretty much the same as the original BARTEYES except for
- the addition of digital sound. BARTEYES II is a mouse tracker and screen
- saver program. Digital sound was added after I received a copy of
- DSOUND.DLL which is part of SOUNDER 2.0: Digitalized Sound Player for
- Windows 3.0 from Aaron Wallace. SOUNDER is a great program --
- Download it if you have the chance!
-
- If you like and use BARTEYES II please send $3.00 to the address below.
- You may note that this is $2.00 less than the original BARTEYES. This is
- to accommodate the $2.00 license of DSOUND.DLL. Please note that DSOUND.DLL
- is not included in the registration cost of BARTEYES II.
-
- The above does not apply if you have registered previous versions of either
- program.
-
- Also, If you would like the source code for BARTEYES II send $10.00
- along with your name and address.
-
- Please note: The icon for Bart was in the public domain. Any icon can be
- used in place of Bart. With the source you can create your own mouse
- tracker and screen blanker.
-
- ZIP file should contain:
- BARTEYES.EXE
- SNDCNTRL.EXE
- DSOUND.DLL
- READ.ME
-
-
- USING BARTEYES II
- -----------------
- In the system menu of BARTEYES II is a Preferences... option. This will bring
- up a dialog box with the following options:
-
- Screen blanking time: Sets the blanking time in seconds.
- Sound Check this if you want Bart to talk.
- AutoLoad Check this if you want BARTEYES II to be loaded
- automatically when you start Windows.
- SOUNDER Control Panel: Brings up the DSOUND control panel.
- (read the following documention)
-
-
- [Excerpted from SOUNDER.WRI]...
-
- Before trying to play a sound, it is necessary to set a few parameters
- using the DSOUND Control Panel especially if you are using 386
- Enhanced mode. The correct values for the parameters will depend
- on which mode you are running Windows in. Note that they must be
- set for each mode you plan to use while Windows is in that mode.
-
- The DSOUND Control Panel will tell you which mode you're
- currently running in. Also verify that the DSOUND version is 2.0.
- The Control Panel will not work with DSOUND.DLL 1.0 (shipped
- with Sounder 1.0).
-
- If you are in Real or Standard mode, initially set the volume to 10
- (use the slider above it) and check the Use Timer box. Press the Test
- button. Adjust the volume to your liking (note that the volume of
- individual sounds can be set as well; the test sound is a "typical"
- sound). If the sound has a lot of static, sounds unrecognizable, or
- otherwise is not Bart saying, "Oh, come on, I'll cheer you up," it may
- be necessary to use a delay value instead of the timer as explained
- for 386 Enhanced mode.
-
- If you are in 386 Enhanced Mode, the Set Timer box will be grayed.
- It will be necessary to set a delay value that is specific to your
- machine and hardware. DSOUND cannot figure this out on its own
- due to limitations of 386 Enhanced mode. 16 works well with a
- 386sx-20. Use the Test sound to determine if the tempo of the
- playback is correct. If the sound plays back too quickly, bump up
- the delay value; if it's too slow, bump the delay down. Adjust the
- volume to your liking.
-
- When done, press the Exit button. This will save stuff in WIN.INI.
