Title: Update module - how?
Post by: XTD on March 17, 2014, 07:56:17

I've found my module on this website. Module was converted twice (first into DBM, then into XM) and I want to upload it with proper, original format (multichannel MOD). How can I do that?

Hi XTD,
Simply upload the original version, then tell us the IDs of all three versions, so that we can merge them.

There are no three versions. I know that mod was converted to DBM, because of samples info. Then I saw that in your website it's in XM format. Oryginally was multichannel MOD and never has other format.

I have no account here, so if someone can help, then I'll be happy. :) If i found more - I'll register myself. :)

I have reactivated the main page account "xtd". You should receive a password reset mail, then you can log into the main page, upload the MOD version to your account and I can merge it with the XM version. :)

"69008-experience.mod has been successfully added to the queue"

Lot of clicks to update one small file. :P
Should I made something more for update this file?

That's all needed from your side. However, if you want a slightly better filename (experience.mod already existed, so your artist ID got prepended to the filename), let me know and I will remove the file from the upload queue so that you can upload it under a better name (e.g. xtd-experience.mod). Otherwise, I will merge it with the XM and we're done. :)

I don't fully understand "merge". I want to replace that XM (i never made anything in that format) with MOD. And I don't care about filename - real mod name is always inside module.

Sorry, missed that post - "Merge" simply means that everything from the old version (XM) (comments, download stats, etc) is transferred to the new version (MOD) and that noone can upload the old version anymore. Anyway, it's done: http://modarchive.org/index.php?request=view_by_moduleid&query=174869
