So I think this was the first D-mod (credit to Wyndo for inventing the word btw) ever created. It was a stupid test just to see if the system worked.

It was originally released as "mill100.exe" in late 1997. The readme.txt is dated October 15th, 1997. The original file is still available here: http://www.rtsoft.com/dink/mill100.exe

In a sad coincidence, Rob Pilatus did commit suicide on April 3rd, 1998. It's important to note that this had not happened yet when I made this.

(for those that haven't played this D-Mod, in one scene is Rob is contemplating suicide but a little girl stops him by believing in him. He ultimately re-unites with Fab to perform as Milli Vanilli again in a happy ending)

The readme calls it a "Dink Addon" (the name D-mod as well as the .dmod format didn't exist yet) and requires Dink V1.01

Description:

This is probably the silliest thing I've ever made... yet it does rock.

The midi's were found in public domain, and about 10 seconds of stuff
was sampled from the Milli Vanilli "Girl You Know It's True" CD, hopefully
I won't be sued for too much. But since this is totally a free and stupid
addon...
