Empty patterns in XM Files
« on: June 12, 2010, 15:05:13 »
While doing some research, I found this "bug" in the XM loader / saver in MilkyTracker, which should be fixed in order to conform to FT2's oddities:

- Completely empty patterns in XM files are always loaded as 64-row patterns in FT2, regardless of their size. To keep compatibility with previous versions of Milky, MPT and other trackers, I would recommend not adjust the the Milky loader code. But...
- A "break to row 0" command should be inserted in the last row of each empty pattern which is longer or shorter than 64 rows when saving XM files.
