Argus News

The new Puzzle Sound Pack for SFXEngine is released today. The set includes pick-up and drop sounds, some explosions and effect sounds, along with levers, sliding or pushing objects, and a sparkly vanish and collection sounds. Tile-flip sounds and buzzers round off this useful general set for all sorts of game. Contains 75 sounds, 5 environments, 45 samples, 65 modulators.

Supplied in SFXEngine project format. Easy or modify, with lots of samples and modulators that are free to use and re-use. Far more flexible than a mere sample library.

Another update to Argus today:
-First new feature is a right-click in the modulator length box can now be used to calculate and set the speed to one beat of a piece of music. Set FX to your beats-per-minute to use.
-Tracks can be be 'optimally' split, rather than needing to work out the ideal number.
-Edit level editing when no selection is set will now ask to apply per-track.

And a few other changes. Full details are in the Readme.txt file.

Happy animating!

A medium update to Argus today:
-We have slightly different looking mute icons, and new Guide tracks, which behave like muted (off) tracks. These are not affected by solo or all-on commands. Use these to store guide events that you don't want to appear in your film.
-A fix to the import of frame numbers from a text file.
-Setting data (in events) now returns the number of events processed.

And a few smaller changes. Full details are in the Readme.txt file. The manual has been updated too, as happens with all program changes.

Happy animating!
