Argus updated to v1.44

Hello All,

A little update to our animation software Argus today. Three little changes:

-A new light on Event List next to track name indicates custom name status. If lit, the track has a custom (manually entered) name and will not be auto-renamed. Can be clicked to re-enable auto-rename (or enter a blank name as before).
-A few new key alternatives for the Windows editor added: Keypad Enter for Kill event, Keypad Divide for Set Modulator, Keypad Multiply for Move with current parameters.
-A warning is now shown if trying to start 3D mode when no camera is active.
-Starting Argus with a film file (.agf) argument will now load the film, permitting a Window double-click of a film.

Argus is free to use in it's basic version, limited to 450 frames and 8 tracks. DLC can be purchased to expand frames and tracks to maximum. Find Argus here:

Happy animating!

SFXEngine Updated to v1.34

A new update to SFXEngine is now live. Lots of interesting changes here:

-Automatic resampling of samples to allow seamless loading of non-44100hz samples.
-Silence (zerosample) level and length now settable via the Project Menu to allow dynamic changes, inc. enable/disable.
-Fix to the linear sample interpolation, added cubic Hermite interpolation, and interpolation settings added to the Sample Menu.

One big change it that the demo now includes all DLC and DLC examples to demonstrate these important effects. In the demo, DLC engines are brown and labelled "(DLC)" to clearly differentiate them from the basic engines.

-Better dynamic resizing of sound list, engine list, environment list as used in Argus.
-The start of unlinking the system to 44100hz. A new start-up procedure and background options to unify the system to a potential new rate.
-Unified WAVEFORMAT structures, default buffer size set to 32768, and lots of other smaller changes.
