Heres a little puzzle, I am making a game for school, needs to look professional,
made cutscenes for it, only work as AVI but take up 150MB. works fine on computer just takes up an awful lot of memory.
But when I get my game burnt on CD (emailed to a friend who has a rewriter) do you think the 150MB (split into four seperate files) will slow the game at all? The emailing will take the longest.

While i'm here does anyone know where i can get musical notes for nursery rhymes (in ABC notation if possible) I tried to google it but i was stuck. They were all books to order online i don't have the time or money!

One last thing... in an adventure game is it annoying when the whole game has the same music, should I make 2 or 3 files to play in different rooms or replace background music with ambient sound where appropraite?
thats all! gemmalah  ;)
Dragon Slayers demo finally finishedGet it here!

Well, not sure what you mean by ABC notation, but if you look for midis (http://www.midifarm.com and others) and then load them into a midi program you should be able to see what the notes are. Maybe someone can suggest a program that cna output "ABC"?

Maybe you mean (Twinkle tiwnkle little star)

If you search for guitar songs transcribed into chords it often just gives the notes. Try http://www.olga.net.

EDIT:
Oh, and try searching for harmonica stuff maybe.. they often are transcribed like that.
Once I killed a man. His name was Mario, I think. His brother Luigi was upset at first, but adamant to continue on the adventure that they started together.
