MilkyTracker Support / Re: build milkytracker in Windows XP error
« on: December 31, 2009, 11:52:10 »
I think the missing files archive should be unpacked to the same directory as the main archive - don't unpack it to a sub-directory.

That doesn't sound right, I don't think the missing-files archive should be unpacked into a subdirectory like that.

MilkyTracker News / MilkyTracker 0.90.85 Release Candidate
« on: December 28, 2009, 02:18:28 »
Greetings 
It's been 20 months since the last release of MilkyTracker, which means it's about time for a new version
The plan is to release the new version Real Soon, but before we do that we could do with some help testing the release on the various different computer setups out there - hence this "Release Candidate". The following links point to binaries for the most popular platforms:
Windows (2000 or later)
OSX 10.6
OSX 10.5
Ubuntu x86 Requires libzzip and libsdl (this may also run on other GNU/Linux systems)
These archives contain only the MilkyTracker binary/executable. MilkyTracker should be able to run from whatever directory it is unpacked into.
For other Unix/Posix systems, the SDL version of MilkyTracker can be built from the following source archive:
milkytracker-0.90.85_294.tar.bz2
Note: This source is intended is intended for the SDL version only, it may not contain all the files necessary for the Windows/OSX builds
I would be grateful if you could spend some time testing this release candidate. I'm especially interested in whether the SDL version builds cleanly on the multitude of supported platforms.
For your information, a preliminary change log is available here.

MilkyTracker Bug Reports / Windows 7 - Milkytracker freezes on exit
« on: December 22, 2009, 20:10:10 »
...for about 8 seconds, then it quits normally.
Using DirectSound (RtAudio4) audio driver. Tried to switch to WaveOut (Vista) but it froze indefinitely.
Not a major issue, but does anyone else experience this?

MilkyTracker Bug Reports / Re: Minor Glitch - causing a crash
« on: December 15, 2009, 09:05:22 »Quote
04:06 DasKreestof: Does anyone here have the release candidate for PocketPC? The 0.90.80 version has some Internal Browser bugs that make it difficult to work with if you're using a hierarchal file structure. I'd love to get a newer/unreleased version.
The #milkytracker channel is mostly populated by European users, it's not surprising that you failed to get a response at 4AM!
Anyway, the guy you want to speak to is probably Raina - he's usually around during the day/evenings Central European Time.

MilkyTracker Community / Re: Samples not playing at correct frequency
« on: December 14, 2009, 13:42:50 »
Have a read through this thread.
Basically, the samples are played back at 8363Hz (with no transpose/fine-tuning applied), so for a C-4 note you will want to create a new sample with a length of 32 - this way you will only need to draw (and store) one period of the waveform - remember to enable looping!
To ensure the sample only lasts for 1 second, you would use the envelope tool in the instrument editor.

MilkyTracker Support / Re: milkytracker issue on linux.
« on: December 07, 2009, 13:56:56 »
I have not seen this problem previously, but if MilkyTracker will not playback this usually indicates that it is no longer receiving callbacks from the system's audio driver. If you start MilkyTracker from a console there may be some useful error messages shown.
