The Lobby / Introduce yourself - Pineconed

« on: January 02, 2007, 16:15:15 »

I think I'll jot down a few lines here too.
I started tracking when I first found out about it 9 years ago or so.
During the first five years I made tons and tons of them but only finished a few, all of which were completely embarassing pieces of crap.  :oops:
I started again a week ago when I found a tracker that I liked for XP and I have years to make up for!

Born in -82... plays guitar... and I'm a dude by the way (there seems to be a shortage of tracker chicks)

I'm mostly interested in making chiptunes at the moment. I just finished one but since I used a few seconds of a sample from NOFX - Bob in the middle of it as some sort of fun break I can't upload it, I'll have a few new ones finished soon though.


Edit: I am also a bit weird and have to edit my posts right away because the lines broke in all the wrong places...  :thumbup:

Tracking / XM's with Skale

Thanks, I think I'll try out both MilkyTracker and FT2 with DOSBox, as well as check out that volume issue with Modplug Tracker and the two just mentioned.

It feels great to finally be able to get started again!

Tracking / XM's with Skale

« on: January 01, 2007, 03:09:52 »

This is my first post here so first of all, hello everyone!  

When I got XP a few years ago I got totally bummed out when I noticed, to my horror, that I couldn't get FT2 to work anymore. I'm pretty much a creature of habit and didn't really like any of the other trackers I found, until I found Skale!
But I noticed that the volume of the instruments was set by a number between 0-80 (hex) instead of 0-40 (also hex) as it was in FT2...

So, if I change the volume of an instrument to let's say 40 it will be half the volume when played in Skale, but if I save it as a XM and play in in some other player/tracker will it still be half or will it be misinterpreted as full blast?
