AmiWolf AGA - new Wolfenstein 3D Port

[bbond007]

It might even have music as well (either MUS format like DOOM or digital like the SFX, not sure yet).

Does it support MIDI sound output? A lot of those DOS games supported MIDI as an option, and it would be cool. I have a sound canvas sc88pro hooked to my A1200.

Thanks!

OOPS. Already asked

can you do this in WinUAE?

Yes. It looks like you could choose Microsoft GS Wavetable Synth under UAE config options "IO Ports". Might be able to install a better software synth. the MS one kind of sounds like a cheap clone of a sound canvas.

Sending data over the serial port is extremely CPU intensive.

How many bits of data would be getting sent per second?

I assume not much so maybe it won't be a big deal.
But it won't lighten the cpu load compared to playing the sound samples with Paula.

MIDI is MAX of 31250BPS but that does not mean that its continuously transferring that much. In most cases I'm sure its transferring substantially less.

I do have an 060, but playing MIDI files in the background does not seem to put much of a load on my CPU at all while iBrowse or do whatever.... Not much difference between that and MODs...
