How to find the module you are looking for

How to find an Amiga music module?

It's quite easy. Exotica has most if not all of what you need:
http://www.exotica.org.uk/
Since they hold the mods mostly in their original, exotic formats, you will need Deliplayer to hear these tunes on your PC.
http://www.deliplayer.com
For Mac OS X, there's CocoModX, which will play SOME tunes (there's no decent Mac mod player :P)
http://cocomod.stalkingwolf.net
And for the miggy, you have Eagleplayer and Delitracker
http://www.eagleplayer.de/
http://www.unary.de/delitracker/
If you haven't found what you are looking for in Exotica, try making a search on Google, always works. Also try checking out these other MOD resources:
http://www.modarchive.com/
http://www.scenemusic.net/
http://www.chiptune.com/
ftp://ftp.modland.com/
http://mods.abime.net (a b î m e .net - Mods Jukebox)
http://demodulate.scene.org (Demo music collection)
http://aminet.net/mods
http://amp.dascene.net (Amiga Music Preservation)
http://www.mirsoft.info/gamemods.php (World of Game Mods)
If nothing turns up, request it here!

Happy hunting!

Thanks for the additions. I forgot to add a player for linux: XMMS
http://www.xmms.org/
And there's also UADE [Unix amiga Delitracker Emulator]
http://uade.ton.tut.fi/

I am in the process of trying to convert this one to OSX.

Is there any method of playing custom/replayer-based music files on a disk-based Amiga? Both of the Amiga-based players listed have fairly steep system requirements.

Xmms uses plugin to play mods. At the moment there are ( at least ) uade, mikmod, modplugplayer, an ahx replayer and iirc a future composer and a tfmx.

And for uade ( i think i have already told you but you had a problem compiling iirc ) on the official page i see:

Requirements:

* basic console uade:
...
Mac OS X:
SDL sound output: http://www.libsdl.org
System V compatible poll: http://www.clapper.org/software/poll/

It would be good to place all the links in the title post and then clean up this thread regularly.

Edited Akria's post and fixed dead links

Amp should probably be listed at the top as its a big archive. Also as exotica really only concentrates on game mods and mods in exotic formats from any source, its not particularly good for demo mods. (The demo mod area is still not launched).

[Asle]

Note that scenemusic.net doesn't store MODs itself but links on other websites. Well, that was the case when it was up ;).

[Old Fool]

I think ftp://ftp.modland.com/ is probably the best site available if you're looking for music from the golden era of Amiga. Incredible variety of different kind of file formats and composers! However, there's no search engine at all !!! :(

[BuZz]

you can search on the mirror

http://www.amigascne.org/

[OddbOd]

Another Linux player (XMMS is dead!)

http://audacious-media-player.org/

Note: The UADE (http://zakalwe.fi/uade/) Plugin for Audacious is required, it should be supplied with UADE but some distributions may have seperate packages for the UADE core and plugins.

The Deliplayer site is offline but on this page you can find another download link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DeliPlayer :)

I Think you'll find it has been suspended :shocked:sad

Deliplayer/DeliTracker should of been supported more 'cause these two beauties are still in serious demand, even now.

Although they stopped supporting it a while ago :sad, I think maybe someone should try and continue making the Amiga Player codes

[BuZz]

Note that modland now has a web interface at http://www.modland.com (redirects to area on exotica) which is more useful for searching for specific tunes than browsing the ftp
