Sorry the site stopped working. It was never my decision to use a database, and SourceForge.net's recent newsletters did not exactly emphasise the fact that the contents of the database would go up in a puff of smoke. Luckily, my lack of confidence in the database, and safety and security thereof, had driven me to keep local copies of the news items, and Google's handy cache provided the IDs and descriptions I was using on the Documentation page. Half a day's frantic rewriting later, the site now works entirely with PHP and text files and no longer generates reams of static HTML using 'print' statements and escaped quotes, Mr Baffles. Last but not least, I can maintain it simply by changing files at home and then uploading them. Excellent.

DUMB v0.9.3 has been released, over two years after the last release! New to this release are lower memory usage, faster mixing loops which are now on a par with ModPlug's, loading of text fields in the module files, faster load functions for projects that don't need to seek within the module or know its length, a dumb2wav tool, Visual Studio 6 project files for all the examples, any many small playback fixes. As usual, feel free to browse the documentation online, starting with the release notes, or skip straight to the download page!

Thanks to Chad Austin for significant contributions, including an Autotools build system neither of us recommends using, and for using DUMB in his sound library Audiere. We'll beat FMOD yet. We had 100% accurate length calculation first!!

Enjoy the release, particularly in the upcoming SpeedHack competition!

There is now a new .zip file on the Downloads page, containing replacement project files for Visual C++. Thanks go to the ZFXC-Engine Team for providing it.

Just to say I haven't disappeared. Progress on DUMB is very slow because I am now working full time in game development, but I am still around and intend to continue supporting DUMB and occasionally working on it. Do get in touch if you have any problems, questions or comments!

Hello and welcome to DUMB's site. I have redone the site's page generation code (you probably won't notice any changes) to work with Sourceforge.net's new tighter security. If there are any problems with it, please email me (baf01[AT]bafsoft.com) or entheh. You can also view the old site (some parts of it won't work correctly) here (link removed). Thanks!
