Tracker Hero is a free musical game for the Amiga that uses MOD song files.

It can be downloaded from Aminet: http://aminet.net/package/game/misc/TrackerHeroAGA

Is there a way to add extra modules to it?

(apologies if that's explained in the download, I haven't checked)

Yes, you need to copy the mod to the game and create a "dat" file with the supplied dat editor.

But even easier: there are actually more dats in the datas folders than songs, so you can search the mods on the net and add MODs of songs like We're the Devils, Monkey Island, Lotus 2, Big in Japan and more...

THIS ADAPTER DOES NOT WORK WITH TRACKER HERO!!!

This adapter ONLY works as a 1-button joystick when used with an Amiga. DO NOT BUY IT FOR TRACKER HERO.

It works with Shredz64 on the Commodore 64, but WILL NOT WORK WITH A GUITAR CONTROLLER ON THE AMIGA!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm sorry if I seem a bit upset by this but I've had to put up with so many people telling me that this Shredz64 adapter should work with Tracker Hero, only to have to explain to them that it doesn't sent CD32 signals, only a proper PS2-CD32 adapter like Paul Willingham's or the Appe project on Aminet will work.

If you would like to build the adapter yourself, here are the instructions - http://aminet.net/package/docs/hard/appe_v32

Just played this for the 1st time. Very good. I will have to load up some mods of songs I know - makes it easier to get in the groove.

The highscore table was the only confusing bit for me, after setting the first letter, I couldn't seem to successfully move to the next letter and select one.

Also, is it something I am doing or after the first play, selecting another track brings up the highscore table again BEFORE even playing that round!

Apart from that the game is attractive, responsive and addictive - what else could you want?
Amiga A1200, 3.1 ROMs, Blizzard 1230 MKIV 128MB & FPU, 4GB DoM SSD, Workbench 3.1

Also happens to me. In my case it seems to be random somehow. Sometimes happens, sometimes not.

I would also like to have some more deep info about how the dat editor works. It almost do everything itself (which is awesome!) but I'm not sure if selecting instruments makes any difference or what does the Beat Ins selector actually do.

Kudos for a great game! As Cammy said, the only pre-built choice is Paul's, works great!
