Title: Oskari, the creator of Buzz is working on an upgrade! Post by: magmavander on June 02, 2008, 08:17:37 PM Hi all,
Oskari Tammelin, the great creator of buzz finally decided to rebuild it. The original code of buzz was lost in a hard disk crash back in 1999 (!). Since this time it's always the same buzz exe. By chance the program was open for others coders to make it evolve with additional tools. Okari wrote : "New build is up. Hacks should work now. Polac effect still crashes, but it's caused by my MDK code." Follow further developements in this thread : http://www.buzzchurch.com/viewtopic.php?t=2280 It's a happy day for buzzers ;D bye mag Title: Re: Oskari, the creator of Buzz is working on an upgrade!

And despite the fact that buzz is still alive only thanks to hacks from external programmers, this community is still quit big. A new version maintained by Oskari will certainly give it a push forward :; There has been other attempts to create buzz clones which where never realy succesfull, or I should say partially succesfull, i think most advanced at the moment is Aldrin ? But buzz has never been beaten, expecially thanks to the very big community of machines (soundgenerators and fx) programmers. Some of those are very unique and very advanced... It certainly would be worth an attempt to see if it could run under Linux with wine :o k Title: Re: Oskari, the creator of Buzz is working on an upgrade!

I'm keeping my eye/ear on that development - this could be big, very big ;D Title: Re: Oskari, the creator of Buzz is working on an upgrade!

Let's hope they'll finish it before we all are retired.... ;D k Title: Re: Oskari, the creator of Buzz is working on an upgrade!
