After a idle in this blog, the Arcade Music Box 2 is now taking a big form:



* reprogrammed from scrath in Blitz Basic. It now only require DirectX7 and require less memory.
* Support of some mods format, and now playing ogg and mp3 based netradios.
* Lots better dir mask support, it now support file mask.
* Albums, Singles and Netradio are now seperated.
* Better Skin support with multifonts.
* 2 coinkeys, instead of just one.
* Can been used in a window with true mouse support, if you use this as desktop application.
* Spinners can been mounter to the scroller and the volume.
* And more.....

I have also change some plans, that diddent work, or have new plans:

* No NETWORK and WEBSERVER support yet:
This need to been multithread to work without to much lag. Blitz Basic does not support Threads. I need to ordrer Pure Basic, and make a DLL. I'm are not good to make a C++ (can only doing simple things) DLL to doing that. I have developed v21 so it can support this later.

* Multi User system:
This did not work as hoped, and gave me to much problems to fit it in.
I may release a beta in a next week or 2!
