APPENDIX D

The Introplay Program

The file

Introplay, found

in the

System/System.Setup

folder

(subdirectory) of the Sonic Blaster program disk, will play the
sound file

Introsound

as the GS/OS startup screen is displayed.

We’ve included an

Introsound

file but you can easily create

your own.

To use the

Introplay

program when booting from RAM, ROM,

hard disk, or any other boot disk, copy

Introplay

and

Introsound

from the

System/System. Setup

subdirectory of

the Sonic Blaster program disk to the

System/System. Setup

subdirectory of your boot disk.

If you're booting the program from your copy of the SB program
disk,

Introplay

is already in place.

To create your own intro sound, run the Sonic master program
and save the file you want as your intro sound to the
System.

Setup

folder in the

System

folder on your boot disk.

The file must be saved as an AE Format file called

Introsound.

*

Note:

If you do not have the program setup correctly,

the computer will still boot but no sound file will be
played during the boot.

If you’re using the

Startpic

program to load a picture during

boot, the

Introsound

file will be played either before or after

Startpic depending upon which appears in the boot disk’s
directory first. If you want the picture loaded before the sound
file is played, copy

startpic

to the boot disk before you copy

Introsound

to the boot disk. You may also use a disk utility,

like ProSel, to arrange the order.
