I'm new here, be nice to me! :D
« on: April 21, 2011, 02:12:16 »
Hi all,

Been into trackers in one form or another since the mid 90s.  I have to admit that even back then I never used an Amiga, only ever DOS trackers (primarily Scream Tracker III).  For quite a prolonged period I was into ModPlug, back in the days that I still used Windows.  I briefly skirted with Psycle but never really got into it.  I'm now a 100% Linux using bod and I'm looking for some decent Linux-based trackers.  I've just got the SVN of Psycle to see if QPsycle's any good (actually the SVN is still checking out).  I've played with Modplug using WINE but didn't find it too clever... maybe I just need to play around with the WINE settings a bit more.

Anyway, it's been a while since I last played around with trackers and I'm hoping to get back into it as I used to thoroughly enjoy it.

Hopefully see you around the boards sometime.

Grant. ;)

Welcome to the forums! o/
I have heard various result about MPT running really well or really bad in WINE, for me it's something inbetween (some weird things that should never happen under Windows happen WINE)... Hey, if you know Qt and C++, you could help us porting the GUI to Qt and thus getting one step closer to a platform independent tracker! ;P

Alas programming is not one of my strengths... but I'm happy to test and report bugs, etc.
