Welcome to this page. A long, long time ago (but remaining in this galaxy), a What PC? magazine had a cover CD on it, which contained (as one of the magazine's features) a large collection of MODs on it. It also included three players, UltiMOD v3.0 by Thomas W. Olsen (screenshot), Inertia Player, and ModPlay. It also included a program to convert STM modules to MODs.

These MOD files were what introduced me to tracking, and I decided that it would be cool to see if I could find the MODs again. However, I didn't have the CD any more, their back-issue department couldn't help (I couldn't remember the date of the issue), and a Google search didn't turn anything up.

So, I took on the task of finding these MODs and posting them here. I didn't have the benefit of a file listing to help me - it was just my own memory. I managed to find a number of the MODs, and eventually a kind soul named Giles stepped in and offered me the entire collection - he had saved the MODs from the CD. I was overjoyed at this, put up a notice on the page to say that I had the entire collection and would put it on this page soon, then promptly forgot about it for about 2-3 months. *sigh*

Shortly after Hugi #28 was released (in which this page was mentioned), I received an email wondering what the status of this page was, thus reminding me of it. I replied saying I would do it the following weekend, and once again forgot about it. Finally, after a few weeks, I remembered about it again, and decided not to procrastinate any longer. So this page now hosts the complete MOD collection I talk about above. :D

Note that although I am listing and hosting these MODs here, it doesn't necessarily mean I like all of them. In fact, some of them aren't that great. But I'm trying to do myself and others a service here, m'kay?

Here are the MODs that were on the CD. Note that the original filenames were in uppercase, but I bulk-renamed them to a lower-case version. Other than that, they're the same as they were on the CD.

Update (27th August, 2005): I've been meaning to add an email address to this page for some time. Anyway, if you found this page useful, or have any other questions, please let me know at mods@theblob.org. :) Also, I put in a definitive date that I had received in December 2004 but had forgotten to put in. Thanks, Chris!
