God bless. I'm looking forward to your works!
Happy to see you making progress!

It's been slow but steady, and I have some progress to report.

The note delay (EDx) turned out to be more difficult than expected, mostly because of the resource constraints of the platform.

After much toil and many false starts, eventually I gave up on continuing to process the previous note during the delay, and decided to just not update the channel until the delay concludes.  This means that the channel state is left as is -- with whatever tone and volume it had at the moment the new note is read -- while the delay counts down to zero, at which point we trigger the new note.

It's not ideal, but serviceable, and saves me a lot of headache in having to make the tracker keep the new note event details in memory, while retaining the old one's as well and process it as if it were still active.  (I have up to 6 channels to support, and a full duplicate of the buffer for each of them is quite a big chunk of the memory available on the Intellivision.)

Anyway, it seems to work well in practice, to some extent.

The full roster of available effects on the Intellivision Music Tracker so far are:

I think I'll take a break from the tracker player and actually do some tracking.  It's time to test this baby and make sure it works as expected.

A little bit of inactivity doesn't always point towards any kind of demise or disaster. It's more likely, that people are just too busy with themselves and are spending their time doing something else, rather than showing up at OpenMPT space

Does anyone know what's going on at openmpt.org? No one has posted on the openmpt forum in 2 days and no one has been active on the openmpt github in 3 days. OpenMPT 1.31.07.00 was just released on the 12 of May https://openmpt.org/openmpt-1-31-07-00-released, so hopefully this inactivity is just the result of people spending time making music with the new version.

They already have been converted to mods: https://hoffman.home.blog/knightmare/

FINALLY, SOMEONE ON THE MODARCHIVE SERVER FOUND IT!

it's outrun_europa_oritaly.mod, which you can find here: https://modarchive.org/index.php?request=view_by_moduleid&query=107682!

for some reason it has those B00's at the first 3 patterns, so you have to replace them with D00 or similar. i guess whatever sound engine that was used to play this module originally used B00 to skip to the next pattern instead of D00

Hi,

I couldn't find anything already in the forum on this; apologies if duplicating.

- MacbookPro 14" M3Max running OS Sonoma 14.4
- Downloaded Milkytracker Darwin ARM version
- Mac refuses to run it "This file is damaged. Move it to the bin."

Is there a version that works, or any way to convince my Mac to try and run it?

Cheers.

thank you!

All done.
