SlamTilt - Missing Jingle

[AceMan]

Ladies and gentlemen, the matter is very important.
Few days ago, while working on bottle of tasty liquid, my brother realized that the Demon-Songs module lacked the theme music playing during the multiball.

All archived modules from SlamTilt available in the internet have the same file in set. The exotica page says that the .mod files come from the author itself. So it is not worth contacting him, I think. But maybe someone has something more? Either found another version or ripped it himself? It cannot stay that way!

I ripped this module long ago (and converted it to regular Protracker). I did it for the music so any sound effect present in the module has been removed in the process.
It's now in the zone for you.

Wow, thanks!

I actually started to rip it myself, but while Music.bin after unpacking is in STIM format (supported already by converters), Demon.bin isn't. Doesn't have any header and samples seem to be packed. Asle's ProWizard rips something from this unpacked .bin file, but it's unusable as well (or I don't know how to handle it).

Would be great to know how you ripped it, just for curiosity

It was too long ago (1999 according to file date) and i don't remember exactly.
I just wrote a small program to take data in these files and convert to ptk (unfortunately it appears i don't have it anymore). I didn't care at all about that "STIM" header.
Don't look in demon.bin, it contains no music. Look in demon.raw and there you'll see the same music format (but headerless).

That's awesome. Thanks again!
I wonder why nobody cared to release this tune before, while it was there all the time

Btw, are there any other files from this game you converted? Maybe there are some more "missing" tracks we don't know about?

Nothing hidden, none we can't hear in the game.
Only other flipper having two separate mods for music is Ace of space, but the second one is in the Exotica rip, so it appears nothing's missing anymore.
