Great! Finally the complement to RKO is online!

What I miss is the downloadlink to the original Amiga-track...
Is this an update in the future?

well, it was there (in the "info"-column), but it's gone somehow...

Haha 3 years yeah ...

The main problem is there is no HVSC equivalent for amiga tunes, so the best I can do is link to a site that has the file to download, such as exotica or scenemusic.net.

Since it is fairly rude to direct-link to another sites files, I only link to the page on each site that has the file.

The link is available for each remix under the "info" column.

I suppose I could make the originals available for d/l directly from amigaremix.com but that would require more housekeeping on my end.

the info-column seems to be empty...

plus, when i uploaded my last remix i was already wondering why i wasn't asked for a link to an original-tune infopage.
i think i remember that i had to enter a link when i uploaded a remix back in 2004...

and, while we have you here, paul: i spotted that the order of the remixes of the same release-date changes sometimes, which i find is a bit irritating.
is that a bug or a feature

?

No, it's not empty. I'm directed to the correct site, in your case it's:

http://exotica.org.uk/tunes/unexotica/g ... haser.html

Works for me, too?

aargh!
as you can see on the image above, there's nothing i can click on (the questionmark).

i have no html-knowledge, but i looked into the pages source-code and the tuneinfo is there, but something seems to be missing:

Code: Select all

<tr class="grid-row-dark"><td align="left"><nobr>2006-03-29</nobr></td><td align="left"><a class="remix" href="getfile.php?file=10309">Vyrus - Title - First Aid 2006</a></td><td align="left"><a class="remix" target="_blank" href="http://www.remix64.com/arrangerinfo_21801.html">SYcroz</a></td><td align="left">Michael TschÃƒÂ¶gl</td><td align="center"><nobr>3.69 MB</nobr></td><td align="center"><a href="getfile.php?file=20309"><img border="0" src="images/lqp.gif"></a></td><td align="center"><a target="_blank" href="tuneinfo.php?tune=198">                                       </a></td><td align="center"><a href="javascript:remix_info_popup(309);"><img border="0" src="images/s3.gif"></a></td></tr>

right behind the tuneinfo the questionmark-reference seems to be missing...
what can i do?

Maybe having a nice 1st April!

Monty · Post by **Monty** » 02/04/2006 - 1:07

hehe, i knew that this would come...

ok, but now it's the 2nd of april and still it's the same problem.
strange, isn't it?

Paul Vanukoff · Post by **Paul Vanukoff** » 02/04/2006 - 4:15

Very odd. Not just missing, but there are spaces where each character in the html should be. Exactly 39 spaces.

What OS & browser(s) are you using?

True - I used to ask for that, but 80% of the submissions had bad information there. So I figured it would be easier for people if I just asked for demo/game name and tune name. I maintain a "Tunes" table which has all the demo and game tunes thus submitted, if someone submits a remix that hasn't been done before, I just do some research and add the tune to that table.

The system however breaks down when I cannot locate information on it, I usually have to email the arranger and get more information.

Yes the order on the same date does shuffle sometimes, this is because I'm only storing a date in that field, not a datetime, so sometimes mysql will sort it just a little bit differently. I guess technically a bug, but not one I'm inclined to go in and fix right now.
