uhh... Commander Keen? (I always hated the name, though. Sounds way too much like "Commander King" when you say it.) |

How about GIMP. It's a freeware paint program like Photoshop, but Cheap as Free. I also know a web site where you can get lots of VSTi plugins for music composition software. http://www.kvr-vst.com Also, if you want maximum performance from your Windows XP machine, use TuneXP. You run it, make your selections, then reboot. It will also optimize Windows boot-up and shut-down. (Edit: Links to web sites added). |

Worms War 3 is a fun game where ants and worms are at war. There's 4 in the FREEWARE series. It's fun but hard! I died with the difficulty at level 1, like 20 times! But it's fun... It's a compressed file, so use Winzip or something... http://g2.acid-play.com/download/d6c691e6/setupww3.zip |

Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory is by far the most fun freeware game I've ever played. |

I am starting an electronic music, hard disk recording, and music theory program at the high school where I am teaching next year, and I have very little budget to work with. Thank you Didymus for the cool link. That music comp stuff looks cool. I need cheap-as-free music software...? Thank you for your input. I am also starting a chess club, which I think would be cool on the computers. Any chess shareware? Thanks, I appreciate you folks. |

I use Jeskola Buzz for professional music stuff. It's pretty buggy and quirky and has a steep learning curve, but if you master it, it's very rewarding. For something simpler, I'd recommend ModPlug Tracker. |

Welcome, LJV. You'll need a host program, like Fruity Loops, and I don't know of any Freeware hosts. The popular search engine Google (Eh Tom) might help you there. My favorite plugins include: Delay Lama(an animated singing monk--SWEET!) Rogue (Interesting distortion effects) Free Alpha (great for pads and string sounds) Texture (very high-tech metalic sounding) Galactix Lallapalooza (P H A T) Egokiller, Fearkilller, and Dreamkiller (hardcore). More links are available on that KVR web site. |

Sorry, kef. I didn't see your post. We must have been writing at about the same time or something. |

On another thread, I mentioned "rippin" CD's to Wave files or MP3's (IJ called it Digital Audio Extraction--same thing). Here's an easy to use program I've been using: CDex. I usually rip trax to Wave so I can edit them--level off the volume, EQ, add FX, or even do remixes. Remember: only rip CD's if you own them and do not plan to distribute the music. It is illegal to bootleg music. (You hear that, RIAA? I'm not promoting piracy). |
