it is not mentioned in the docs since which version of VGM format these were added I don't know.. Possibly 1.10. and the VGM player for SMD I thought of is probably Which one is that? The ones I know of are the one by MIKE-STAMP (stand alone) which you can find here on the forum, and ChillyWilly's ...

when there are samples in exported VGM, 0x61 is used all the way to skip time between sample writes.

Why not 0x8n? Are you playing samples slower than 2756 Hz (i.e. you need to delay longer than 1/(44100/16) seconds between each sample)?

find a common palette of X images (within a defined number of colors)

Combine all images into one big image, run a quantizer on it, split the resulting image into the individual sub-images.

Most software developers are salaried, not paid by the hour. If publishers had to pay by the hour, they'd go broke since EVERY software development project in EVERY area requires "overtime" at some point. I've NEVER seen a single software project that was finished on time without at least one crunc...

I don't know about Audacity, but in Goldwave (a free program for Windows) you can resample with Effects->Resample. And to save as 8-bit unsigned mono you just set the Attributes field to that in the "Save as" dialog.

Nice. A 32X game that doesn't suck

What sort of controls does your keyboard have? I.e. could it be used for tweaking the FM instruments? Or do you want to have static instruments and just send key ON/OFF commands?

VGM has four different delay commands (5 actually, but I'm not counting PCM write delays since they're not relevant here).

0x61 nn nn - Wait nnnn samples
0x62 - Wait 735 samples (16 ms)
0x63 - Wait 882 samples (20 ms)
0x7n - Wait n+1 samples

Depends on what you're doing between each time you run that loop. VGMs contain delay commands that can delay anywhere between 1 and 65535 samples between each write to the PSG port.

unless I'm wrong, it won't be possible. SN don't know what envelop is... If you want to play the songs on an SMS (in a game) it might be tricky, because you'd waste a lot of CPU time simulating the envelopes. But if you're converting to VGM it's certainly possible. The maximum envelope frequency on...

You handle the envelopes as well? Without it, a lot of AY music will probably sound pretty weird. For the noise, maybe you could do something like this: if (AY_noise_period < 10) SN_noise = 0; else if (AY_noise_period < 20) SN_noise = 1; else SN_noise = 2; SN_noise_volume = 0; div = 0; for (i = 0; i...

The deltas when drawing one line should be dx = cos(a) / scaling dy = sin(a) / scaling To update the starting position for the next line you use another pair of deltas: dxdy = sin(a) / scaling dydy = cos(a) / scaling And the starting position for the first line, with the rotation center at v,w shoul...

Any hints about where the MD menu fails with O2? Already while mounting the SD card? Or do you get corrupt data when trying to load a ROM? Maybe you could add some printouts to see where things go wrong (e.g. which function it's in and which MMC command it was trying to perform).

PCM is only supported when exporting to VGM.

I'm comparing against Audacious/ModPlug for my testing.

Doesn't ModPlug have a bad reputation among Amigaphiles? I recall seeing lots of complaints about it. Maybe you could try XMPlay instead. Or something based of libfmod.
