I've now also dropped explicit Crescendo support... the reason being that I have found that, for some inexplicable reason, Crescendo tends to chop off the ends of MIDI files (last couple of seconds are missing!). </p> <p> <img src="images/blank.gif" width=40 height=0 border=0 alt=""> Now, this site is optimally viewed with Netscape Navigator with LiveAudio (the default audio plugin), a MOD plugin such as the freely available MODPlug (get it at <a href="http://www.castlex.com/modplug" target="_top">http://www.castlex.com/modplug</a>). </p> <p> <img src="images/blank.gif" width=40 height=0 border=0 alt=""> Also, I changed the logo (to use the technical terms, I upped its spiffiness by 30%). </p> <hr> <tt><b>September 29, 1997</b></tt> <i>(not released)</i> <p> <img src="images/blank.gif" width=40 height=0 border=0 alt=""> Got rid of Beatnik support. Yup, that's right, available one day, gone the next. The problem was that although Beatnik was cool for a few things (as it turns out, <b>too</b> few), it totally messed up the other plugins (MIDI&MOD), so I decided to can it. Unfortunately, this means that the JSEvent-triggered sounds will react a little bit more, uh, sluggishly (the replacement is the generic LiveAudio interface...). </p> <p> <img src="images/blank.gif" width=40 height=0 border=0 alt=""> So, that means that this site is now optimally viewed with a MIDI plugin such as LiveUpdate's Crescendo (freely available at <a href="http://www.liveupdate.com" target="_top">http://www.liveupdate.com</a>) and a MOD plugin such as MODPlug (freely available at <a href="http://www.castlex.com/modplug" target="_top">http://www.castlex.com/modplug</a>. Oh, yeah, and Netscape Navigator is a must. Soon to be tested with Communicator... (I can only assume that nothing earth-shatteringly bad will happen with Communicator) </p> <p> <img src="images/blank.gif" width=40 height=0 border=0 alt=""> Also made some minor changes and added the spiffy new Zibaland 2 logo. </p> <hr> <tt><b>September 28, 1997</b></tt> <p> <img src="images/blank.gif" width=40 height=0 border=0 alt=""> Got rid of "The Tick" sound clips. Added bgms and Beatnik support. You can get the Beatnik plugin at <a href="http://www.headspace.com/" target="_top">http://www.headspace.com</a>. </p> <p> <img src="images/blank.gif" width=40 height=0 border=0 alt=""> I would recommend getting both Beatnik and another MIDI plugin, such as LiveUpdate's Crescendo (available at <a href="http://www.liveupdate.com" target="_top">http://www.liveupdate.com</a> because although Beatnik is lots of fun for the Groovoids and other funky sounds, if you have a pretty good sound card, Beatnik makes regular midi sound like it is being passed through a cheese grater or a cheap radio station... </p> <p> <img src="images/blank.gif" width=40 height=0 border=0 alt=""> Of course, if you follow the "recommendation", then you'll also need a plugin manager to disable Beatnik's MIDI support. An example is Digigami's Plugsy, which is available at <a href="http://www.digigami.com/plugsy/" target="_top">http://www.digigami.com/plugsy/</a>. (otherwise, you will probably need to disable the conflicting midi plugin in order for Beatnik to work its evil magic). </p> <p> <img src="images/blank.gif" width=40 height=0 border=0 alt=""> Note that Beatnik support is not entirely very impressive as of yet. </p> <hr> <tt><b>September 27, 1997</b></tt> <p> <img src="images/blank.gif" width=40 height=0 border=0 alt=""> Minor bug fixes (unaddressed compatibility issues).

Other people are too clever by half, but I have learned to express myself with elegance. Other people are sensualists, but I am a Romantic. Other people are paranoid, but I am merely careful. Other people are pigheaded fools, but I am merely a little set in my ways."</p> <div align=right> <tt> excerpt from <i>Masks of the Illuminati</i> by Robert Anton Wilson </tt> </div> <a name="Links"></a> <hr width=50%> <center> <font face="Arial, Helvetica"><b>Links</b></font> </center> <hr> <ul> <li> <a href="http://www.ugrad.physics.mcgill.ca/~zibalatz" >Zibaland I</a> <ul> <li><a href="http://www.ugrad.physics.mcgill.ca/~zibalatz/creator.html" >About the Creator</a> <li><a href="http://www.ugrad.physics.mcgill.ca/~zibalatz/other_mail.html" >Mail</a> <li><a href="http://www.ugrad.physics.mcgill.ca/~zibalatz/whatsup.html" >What's Up</a> <li><a href="http://www.ugrad.physics.mcgill.ca/~zibalatz/words.html" >Words!</a> <li><a href="http://www.ugrad.physics.mcgill.ca/~zibalatz/goodstuff.html" >Good (and Bad) Stuff</a> <li><a href="http://www.ugrad.physics.mcgill.ca/~zibalatz/lifesucks.html" >The Life Sucks Fan Club</a> <li><a href="http://www.ugrad.physics.mcgill.ca/~zibalatz/links.html" >Interesting Links</a> </ul> <li><a href="http://www.cs.mcgill.ca/~zibalatz">Zibaland 2</a> <li><a href="http://www.openface.ca/~zibalatz">Zibaland 3</a> <li><a href="http://www.hasc.com/~zibalatz">This numbering thing is getting out of hand</a> </ul> <hr> <ul> <li> [<b>Albert</b> D'Urso] <ul> <li><a href="http://www.cs.mcgill.ca/~albertd">Alberto D'Urso's Web Page</a> </ul> <li> [<b>Alex</b> Thibault] <ul> <li><a href="http://www.cs.mcgill.ca/~alexthib">Welcome</a> </ul> <li> [<b>Alvin</b> Loh] <ul> <li><a href="http://www.cs.mcgill.ca/~alvin">Alvin's Favorite Restaurants Page</a> </ul> <li> [<b>Amy</b> Chow] <ul> <li><a href="http://www.cs.mcgill.ca/~silly">Silly's new home??</a> <li><a href="http://www.tane.com/~amy/">Looking for a job!
