Two reasons why I am posting this. One, because I was making a game and by far it was the farthest I've ever actually pushed myself to doing... but the best thing about it is the music used by QMIDI. But, now since I used an older version of QMIDI, I don't have the UnLoadMidi function so I can't unload the midis, which causes the game to crash right around the first cave (RPG). So, I was wondering if there was a simple way to swap QMIDI out with a newer version without a lot of headaches :barf: .
Second is this is my 200th post :king:

A Severe Error has crippled BB2 for the time being... I have to figure it out, but until then you won't see much of it

You can get the last version of QMIDI off my site.
Bear in mind that QMIDI doesn't work with a lot of soundcards (like mine!) so you might also want to consider UGL modplayer, or DS4QB2/++ if you're happy to run through Windows.
In a world without walls and doors, who needs Windows and Gates?

Oh well. I guess I could just start over on my game... I have found out more efficient ways of coding since I started it. Too bad Qmidi doesn't work in XP... since I got my new computer I've tried to use it but it doesn't work. I guess I'll just have to use my old Packard Bell :-D

BWSB is also a good choice.

Yes, indeed very nice NovaProgramming...
As for the Sound, you can use BWSB, DS4QB++ (or ver. II), UGL MOD, or any other lib containing sound routines.l
Tips? Well, if you're running through windows or have a PCI soundcard with a high IRQ, use DS4QB++.
If you want a fast sound-reaction, you can use BWSB, but this takes EMS and you should be careful with this combined with other EMS-Using libs/programs like DQB.

BWSB does not require EMS, it just uses it if it's available...
