Chilly Willy, check this VGM , that's how it had to be, but wasn't because of a mistake. Is this fixes the problem? Txai, if you mean tremolo as in 'tremolo pedal' for guitar, there is no tremolo. You'll get a lot of clicks if you will change volume on FM channels often. However, you can get it with...

I looked into the VGM ouput, seems almost whole init sequence is missing (that sets some registers to 'default'). Yes, mono is default. Should warn everyone who uses PSG: I'm going to change PSG envelope behaviour. Currently it works like FM envelope, never resetting output value. It could be useful...

I set pan for all the channels at the start. Maybe it is exporter problem that it omits pan for other channels, I'll check this out.

There is effect Pxx (P10, P01, P11) to set the pan for any channel.

CosmoBuggi, if you can't open chm file with your software, there are chm decompilers and online services to browse chms. Chilly Willy, I don't think anyone really need more than 255 instruments/samples in a single sound. It is actually should be more like 32-64, I just thought, if I have two hex dig...

Please learn the hardware you trying to write music for. That's how YM2612 works, that's explained in the help, in the Sxx effect explaination.

andlabs, I've got many reports that the editor works fine under wine, only few people had some problems (Chilly Willy, with VGM export, and now you).

TFD export is still there (FM part only).

Chilly Willy, by the way, I've got few reports that VGM export in 1.0 worked fine under wine. Which module you've tried to export that caused to the hang? I mean, there is only one test module, did you used it, or made your own?

I'm actually found a solution for this already, and it was used in the 1.01. Can't test it, though.

I don't have to include any additional DLLs into the package anyway, because there is freely available MSVC 2008 Redistributable on MS site that has everything that is needed.

The dlls aren't actually required anything special by itself, this crap is attached by the compiler (MSVC 2008 Express), and I can't find how to fix this. Source code for the dlls is provided with the editor, so maybe someone can recompile them to remove that dependency. PSG envelope is completely s...

*With some instruments on the instrument creator tab you get next note sound quiet. You play a note, and then play another and the next note is as quiet as first note was when you hit the new note. Possibly tied with PSG test envelope which seems to be derived form FM ADSR settings...? Could you ex...

I really don't like when people tell me how easy to fix something in my code which they never seen. In any case it can't be 1 or 2 lines. Tens of lines, probably, and these lines will require some thinking, changing, recompiling, seeing that everything is broken now, fixing, recomiling, IDE hanging ...

Yes, that's how it works for now. Obviously it is far from optimal. There are thoughts: VGMs aren't supposed to be used on the hardware; VGM players for the hardware probably convert data to some internal optimal format anyway; there should be special, compact and optimized format to use the music i...

Obviously, the specs I asked about few posts earlier. Where I can found 1.10 specifications? Or, generally, where I can found any older specifications? Edit: Mike's VGM_PLAY v2.00 works with files exported from the editor. They play slowly if sample rate is 22050 (understandable), but play correctly...

I'm going to use 0x8n when I find the specs, I need them to create correct header. I don't want to make it for 1.60 specs, it is real overkill, and is not supported by older software.
