really? I wasn't sure. I thought I got a copy of mine back when I downloaded yours because you added the !wh.wav ( I just checked, and it WAS there when I downloaded )

Anyway, feel free to distribute my set. I did it originally to remove the risk of GI suing for theirs, although I suppose that's a grey area legally as it's synthesised not sampled. Technically the copyright in the recording would then be owned by whoever made the file you used.

I think some more rerecording and trickery will be needed in order to synchronise the voice to the animation, rather than the other way around as it is in this demo.

hehe, look what's coming next Windows Demo 88K zipped, requires alleg40.dll

[Edit] typos in both URL's, now fixed

I'm putting five cents on never! This is pretty clearly add-on library material.

Cool work to paul and matt, heh, this is interesting stuff that I hadn't heard of, really, before now. Very fun!

Obviously the evil laugh needs some work on the arpeggiation.
