Title: Questions about MML
Post by: penultimatedoomguy on January 27, 2016, 15:24:34

Hi, I have some questions about using MML for XM files.  What are the advantages of using MML over trackers?  How long does it take to master MML?  Where are there tutorials to make MML specifically for Mod and XM files?

Well, I can only speak for myself, but I only see disadvantages: You have no direct feedback like in an actual tracker, you always have to compile your MML file into a module to be able to preview it and it's thus probably quite frustrating to work with. But you probably know this answer already from all your other threads I have responded to: Just try if it works for you. Neither me nor anyone else can know if one tool suits you better than another. In the end the majority of the tracker community will of course tell you that they prefer trackers - otherwise they wouldn't use them.
