A special short new article which is thanks to the disk copying of Pete (Myth) Baron.  Due to his work with the Maniacs Of Noise with Myth,  they MoN had sent Pete a disk load of music and SFX previews.

Unknown to Pete,  on this disk were a number of SFX demos never heard before.  This included rare SFX for 2400AD and Nighthunter,  but also some unused SFX in a selection of released titles like Myth and Outrun Europe.

Grab the D64 of SFX here

We take a *very* brief look at each music/sfx preview and examine if there is any "Tunes/Sfx that Weren't" for any of them...  In order of appearance on the D64 to see what there is...   Can't really say too much about SFX in general, but the demos are a nice thing to have preserved.  Many may not have been seen before until now.

Nighthunter SFX

A GTW entry, and indeed a set of SFX which have been unreleased until now.   Already the tunes exist in HVSC, but the SFX was not so lucky to survive, until Pete discovered the disk.  A nice set of sfx,  including those which sound almost sample like.  Good high quality sfx overall.

Dominator L2 FX

Seems to contain sfx which were fully used.

Dominator L3 FX

Seems to contain sfx which were fully used.

Hawkeye SFX

Not confirmed, but there could be a few bits here which were unused.

Gaplus SFX

Seems to contain sfx which were fully used.

Mantalos SFX

Seems to contain sfx which were fully used.

2400 AD SFX

Another GTW title, and another one which was in HVSC in the form of its tunes....  again no SFX released until now. As with Nighthunter, this is a high quality set of sfx which make the game
sound even more great than it was.  Hopefully we'll be finding out more about the game very soon!

Outrun 2 Music

Uncovered recently,  Outrun Europe's music... which was eventually used in Turbo Outrun.  This was the intended game though.

Combat Game Music

Music demo which contains music fully used.

Elminator Music

Music demo which contains music fully used.

Myth Level 1 SFX + Sourcesld

Interesting set of files.   Firstly the SFX demo contains one "Organic" sfx part which seems to have not been used.  Apart from that,  sfx which was actually used by Pete in the game.

Sources are also present we believe for the SFX itself,  including instructions from Maniacs of Noise about how to get them working.

Vendetta SFX + Sources

More sfx,  and items of sfx which we think were fully used in the game.

Like with Myth,  there are a number of source files which might be
interesting to some.  There could
also be some sfx which have not been used or commented out.

Instruction files from Maniacs have been provided
