This video demonstrates the System Tour which comes as a default application on your standard installation of IRIX 5.3! The purpose of this video is to simply offer a sample of how the System Tour interface works and what you can expect out of it. It is kind of unnecessary, but has a certain campy feel to it that can not be explained by mere words and is a fun piece of code to look at. Enjoy your stay...
Here is a brief description of my Indigo 2's specifications (hinv):
- Maximum Impact with 4 MB texture RAM
- MIPS R4400 clocked at 200 MHz (2 MB L2 Cache)
- Iris Audio Processor (Revision A2)
- 128 MB RAM
- 30+ GB Seagate Hard Disk
- Runs "Irix 5.3 for all Indigo2 Impact"
The Indigo2 Impact series dates back to 1995!
NOTE:
If you have questions regarding technical stuff or advanced software configurations for Silicon Graphics computers beyond amateur level I can not guarantee that I will be able to answer these questions, but I will do my best (if possible)!

![Duke Nukem 3D - Yamaha TG300 (General MIDI) - Stalker (E1M1)
Song from Duke Nukem 3D played by a Yamaha TG300 Tone Generator made in November 1993. Recorded directly from a real TG300 without any additional processing. All patches were initialized prior to playback, so all effects are set at default values.
Link to my Yamaha TG300 playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL752VBHCcUEAgCd9kIX_XbuYeznn7YTca
The Yamaha TG300 is the successor to the Yamaha TG100 Tone Generator and is a good alternative to the Sound Canvas (SC-55, SC-88 etc.) modules by Roland. The TG300 was succeeded by the Yamaha MU-series of modules (starting with the MU80) with the new XG standard to expand upon General MIDI.
Game: Duke Nukem 3D (1996, MS-DOS)
Song: Stalker

![Half-Life with Stupid Custom Sounds [Volume 2]
This is what tends to happen when the insanity continues from the previous volume, but I somehow dont mind any of that (hopefully you dont do it as well). Why yes, this mug of lunacy is moist indeed.. Half-Life with Stupid Custom Sounds [Volume 2]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/m034moeBKAQ/mqdefault.jpg)
