ModExplorer V1.0 OS3/OS4/MOS

[AMIGASYSTEM]

Even the AROS version works perfectly with Station "Modland" and "Modules.PL" I still can not start Station "Aminet" some idea?

Fast trying in my 1260. Works like a charm. Beautiful. Thanks!

It doesn't work right at all with AGA using Plananarama. The buttons in both top corners don't work, so you can't close it or change the skin.

But I've got to say that I like it a lot and when it plays a song it does very well, so thanks a lot to the developer. He has a lot of work ahead though.

Work is just a little 'naughty, view screenshots

I work on OS 3.9 AGA

so you can't close it or change the skin.

Did not you read my review? the new version no longer supports Skins

[Retrofan]

Thanks. I tried to seach for some update at A1K.org, but Google translator makes it so badly... Thanks for the info, I'll try the update.

What a pity about the skins. In fact yesterday I made a launcher using Thomas Rapp's "checksmprefs" program that was doing great:

checksmprefs d 8 ;  Under 256 Colors condition
IF WARN
Assign >NIL: Skins: Skins16C
ELSE
Assign >NIL: Skins: Skins256C 
EndIF

checksmprefs d 14 ; Till RTG Colors condition
IF WARN
Sys:Utilities/ModExplorer/ModExplorer_OS3 -requireplugins plananarama
ELSE
WBRun Sys:Utilities/ModExplorer/ModExplorer_OS3
EndIF

With this launcher you could run it from AGA or from RTG and using the perfect skins that I had remapped for that.

I don't know what happens. I've installed the necessary Aiss images and it looks like your screenshot in my AKReal setup, AmigaSystem. But I've installed TheBar and the Aiss pack in CWB39 and it looks different.



There must be an option to have only that bar I'm showing. But where?

Edit: Ah, ok. You control that with the "View" preference.

It's a wonderful program.

[AMIGASYSTEM]

I'm glad that in the end you did, was worth
Yes, the GUI it changes the prefs, or by deleting messages saved in Prefs/Env-Archive

[SvladJelly]

Any way to make it use an external player?
Also, not finding where it places the downloaded / liked modules.

Also, does changing AHI settings on a standard Amiga 1200 (with 030) affect sound quality? Modexplorer's built in player sounds far worse than using Eagleplayer etc.

in program folder you should show all icons, then there you find a folder called "temp".
within temp, there is a folder called "amp", in there you should find downloaded mods.

[AMIGASYSTEM]

It confirms that you play modules are located in the path ModExplorer/temp/amp/, but attention the MOD it is removed when changing the song !

that's right, you'll have to copy it to a safe place while it's playing.

Great little player, thanks!
Using it on OS4 via WinUAE, where I am a complete noob (OS4, not UAE)...
OS3 I used twenty years ago, on a real machine, and saved only a few brain cells regarding startup-sequence etc.
Completely different on OS4 (still thinking: where is the command to start the dock? Is it included in loadwb?)...

Anyway...I managed to start your player on workbench 4.1 boot.
But: Is there a command line parameter that I could use to start in iconified mode?!

*Edit*
Back to normal...Why? I don´t know:
Downloaded modexplorer surroundings (kept aOS4 binary) from some Aros or morphOS site...no luck, modexplorer still busy.
At least, music played...
I let the mod play to the end: There´s your cursor again!
Good :-)

Why does this Prog play the same song even after reinstalling (deleting prog directory)? Where is the playlist stored (modland)?
*edit end*

Where is it available?

I have now the WinUAE starting up as before, but the Modexplorer is busy from the start, only the clock-mouse available, no clicks allowed.
What do I have to reset?
I tried deleting all kinds of "mods", "temps" and stuff, but now it won´t play at all.

I just wanted to re-install, but can´t find a source?!

"amiga5000" is dead it seems...

[AMIGASYSTEM]

I can attach my copy, for which OS do you need?

[SvladJelly]

Any reason why this program would work in winuae and not on my real A1200? Same CF Card, same OS / install?

[SvladJelly]

Oops scratch that. I needed render.library

[TEOL]

No Exotica, Unexotica and AMIGA Music Presivation or Janeway with the demo musics makes it a lot out of date from the beginning.

[SvladJelly]

ModExplorer seems to be gone! Any source for the latest version?

[AMIGASYSTEM]

If you need the reviewed version I can attach my copy, on which OS do you need?
