For some time now I am searching for a specific SID but I just can't find it, I know exactly how it sounds and as far as I know it belongs to a game. But scouting through 30,000 SIDS takes forever.. especially if you consider all the subtunes in each SID
I would be very grateful if someone here could help me! The SID I am looking for is the one you can hear in the Eagle Soft Incorporated intro of the English release of Maniac Mansion, downloadable here.
Eagle Soft Incorporated usually had ripped gametunes in their intros, so as far as I know, this tune should belong to a game aswell. I hope someone can help me with this one, and I thank you for reading my post!
They used several game tunes, like the Antony Crowthes R1D1 for their Sid Meiers Pirates! release. I wish they mentioned the SIDs in their scroll texts, would have made this a lot easier.
Thanks very much for your reply Chris! I've started searching through Ben Daglish's SIDs in the hope I'd maybe find it there, and I have!
It turns out the SID is called Mounty Micks Deathride, I guess I can finally sleep at night again
By the way, wasn't it the theme from Gobots that they used in their DotC intro? Anyways, thanks very much for your reply, I got my answer
After listening to this, I remembered that intro too, with the full-screen eagle that enrolls itself from the top to the bottom of the screen until it's fully visible, isn't it? Memories!!!

Not that difficult for me to find that one, it is of course by Ben Daglish and can be found in HVSC here:
Wow that tune brings back memory's of gray scale Fast Scrolling text fading in and out as it bounced across my screen, with that funky Italic type of font.
