Band-in-a-Box 2006 build 198 now available

19th December 2005

PG Music has released build 198 of Band-in-a-Box 2006.

Changes:

Fixed: Guitar chord diagrams were sometimes displaying and printing incorrectly.
Fixed: Pitch Invasion is now playable when the dpi (font size) is set at 120 (instead of the standard 96).
Improved: Music Replay - For the melody & rhythm games, in previous builds, if you pressed "stop" before you played your part, it was counted as a zero score when it tallied the totals. It now is not counted at all.
Improved: Music Replay - The scoring has been improved, and now gives a more accurate representation of your performance.
Improved: Music Replay - The default metronome patches have been changed from "metronome" to "sidestick" (some soundcards do not have a metronome sound, in which case it was silent).
Improved: Music Replay - "Automatically retry phrases if the score is not at least x" is fixed. Previously you needed to get higher than x, but it is now equal to or greater than x.
Added: Music Replay - There is a "score report" that you can access at the end of a Rhythm or Melody game. It gives you detailed information about all of the notes you played, and how the individual notes were scored. You can access this by pressing "show score report" at the final dialog, which opens the report as a txt file.
Fixed: JazzBal1.STY didn't show up in StylePicker.
Updated: Updated Pitch Invasion and Music Replay help files are included.
Updated: The most recently updated BIAB 2006 help file is included.
Updated: The most recently updated bbw.lst (style description file) is included.
