modplayer that will loop mods

(1/2) > >>

inhahe:
Does anyone know of a mod player for Windows that will loop mods that have the loop instruction?  I.e. the mod tells it to jump back to a previous track, and it loops indefinitely.  thx

raina:
Sounds like a fairly standard feature but XMPlay, for one, certainly has it. You just have to enable looping.

Saga Musix:
XMPlay is kinda specialized on this stuff :) You can loops tracks forever or just once, you can fade them out, etc...

inhahe:
thanks guys.  XMPlay seems to do the trick.  it's kind of funny, though; apparently it will only heed the mod's looping instruction if i turn repeat on (referring to the little button with the curvy arrows), and if i turn repeat on it loops any mod with or without a looping instruction.  yet in the options you can select to loop only if there's a loop instruction or only if the loop instruction doesn't point all the way to the beginning.  so doesn't seem to make a lot of sense.

and one of my favorite mods, elysium.mod, which loops, won't load under xmplay.  i click on it and it simply closes the file selection dialog and does absolutely nothing. :/ i wondered if perhaps it just doesn't support mods with more than 4 channels, although that's strange since it supports .it, .xm, .s3m, .mp3, .ogg, .wma, etc.



Saga Musix:
if you mean Elysium by Jester, that works fine in XMPlay here... if not, well... xmplay supports many formats, but it doesn't support .MODs with only 15 samples - you can convert them or use the oldsk00l plugin (see support.xmplay.com).
