Project / Coder's Corner / [Discussion] New module format - openModplug

PlayerPro will read Impulse Tracker modules created with ModPlug that contain VST(i)? I don't think so, but if I'm wrong on this I apologize.
Well, you didn't exactly say that it had to be a ModPlug generated IT, just a module with VST. But that's true, PlayerPro basicly bugs with IT in general, me thinks, but at least it works. But who cares, that's not the discussion in this topic.

Modplug does it, at least for IT files.
The "classic" ModPlug saves IT files with version number "2.00", the original IT saves them with "2.14", "2.16" or wathever - so basically every module that has the module version "2.00" is a classic modplug module.
OpenMPT however has another version number, WinAmp (BASS plugin, of course) displays "8.88". So there is a way to distinguish between Trackers. I don't know about the XM format, though.
I see, but a version number is rather cryptic. Does IT not have a string of text as a header? That's a shame. And I believe that some IT generated IT modules actually use the 2.00 version number (early BETA versions probably), so the version number is not a guarantee. But I see your point.
