I remember that I played this game very long time only because of the music (hehe I don't like turn based strategies very much). And it still rocks! *** User reviews *** - "Battle Isle 2" (by lorien, 23 Jun 2005) [10/10] Maybe his best work. Great. Btw on the Bi2 CD the first audio track is not in the Midi archive. I dont remember if this music was maybe used in the intro? Maybe someone could record that track as midi too? - "Best memories.." (by zomg111, 25 Jul 2007) [10/10] Another gem turned up here. Same as for the first review author i must say i m not biggest fan of turn based strategy, but must also confess that this game was still quite impressive to me, fantastic (to a great part thx to the music), and also great for hot seat multiplayer so we spend countless hours with battle isle 2.. Browsing through the files i got currently stuck at track 14, will take me some time to move on to another ;) I got a little confused due to the description that the midis in the archive are somehow "incorrect", they sound fine to me. For playback on my Audigy2 i use Milton Paredes Airfont-340; very enjoyable but if anyone thinks he can recommend an even better free soundfont let me know please. - "Note for the correct pitch" (by Verbatim, 26 Sep 2013) [8/10] the Jogrwai.mid contains the midi controller RPN Pitch Bend Sensetivity Value:1536, in the other tracks this important controller is missing, especially for the overdrive and disortion parts if wanted I can offer a correction of the actual collection i never played this game, but i love some tracks of this Midi OST, early i heard it over xmiplay via FM synth. Greez Matthias *** Facts / description *** This info sent me WKjun about this archive: The MIDI files extracted from BI2 are unaccurate (wrong pitch). There has been a recent addition to this 100% finished archive called "Jogrwai.MID". You may notice it is the same MIDI File as the first one "01 - Battle Isle 2.MID" but played back differently (correct). So the Jogrwai.MID is the correct file and this is how the other files should be. I remember playing the game with my SB AWE32 in General MIDI mode and enjoying the better music instead of OPL3 SB16 mode. To achieve correct playback of the MIDI Files the game has to be started with an extension called "/sync" or so... it calibrated the soundcard for GM playback and the music was fine. Manually extracted files had flaws and I don't know how to correct without the game. *** Other music records from this game *** Game rip *** More info about Haiko Ruttmann *** Country: Germany Company: Blue Byte Original game music from Haiko Ruttmann: Incubation: Bonus Disk (Win) [7/10] [30 Sep 1997] Settlers 4, The: Game rip (Win) [10/10] [14 Feb 2001] Settlers 3, The: Game rip (Win) [9/10] [20 Dec 1998] Battle Isle 2: Game rip [1993] Settlers, The: Game rip (Amiga) [10/10] [1993] Battle Isle 2: Game rip (Dos) [1993] Battle Isle 3: Game rip (Dos) [1995] Dr Drago's Madcap Chase: Game rip (Dos) [1995] Settlers 2, The: Game rip (Dos) [1996] Settlers, The: Game rip (Dos) [1994] Battle Isle: Game rip (Amiga) [1991] Great Courts: Game rip (Amiga) [1989] Great Courts 2: Game rip (Amiga) [1990] History Line 1914-1918: Game rip (Amiga) [1992] Pro Tennis Tour: Game rip (Amiga) [1989] Pro Tennis Tour 2: Game rip (Amiga) [1990] Twin World: Game rip (Amiga) [1989] Game music originally related to Haiko Ruttmann: Great Courts: Game rip (C64) [1989] Games which composed Haiko Ruttmann music in: (if there is platform in the parenthesis, it means the composer composed or ported the music for this platform) - Settlers 4, The - Settlers, The (Amiga) - Battle Isle 2 (PC Dos) - Battle Isle 3 - Dr Drago's Madcap Chase - Settlers 2, The (PC Dos) - Incubation (PC Windows) - Battle Isle (Amiga) - Great Courts 2, Jimmy Connors ...
