converting mods to mods
« on: October 26, 2003, 12:47:17 PM »
the world is digitalising (did i spell that right?) and so am i :-) I've got loads of mods, official and ones by mates on my amiga. Now although most amiga files are in this format: "name"."extension" (without the " things) but for mods its:   mod.horizons edge (or watever) but anyway...

I took some pc floppies, stuck the holes over with sellotape (did i spell THAT right?) and then got all of the over to my pc. Windows automaticall thought that the names, being last in the file, were the extension, but that wasn't much of a problem anyway, it just turned it all into things like mod.hor but that ain't a problem...

But i can't play it, which is a problem  :-(
Firstly i just thought cause it was the wrong way round, so when i selected my horizons edge mod (as an example) i saw mod and then windows said it was a HOR file... I renamed it to hor.mod, but then when i shoved it in winamp, it didn't work...

i probably need some kind of a converter (did i spell that right?), but which one?

also seeing i got all the mods onto windows already, i'd appreciated if the converter was for windows rather than amiga... but if there are no other solutions...  :-)
