Which one is faster? (code) To be fair, your first example runs do_something_terrible() 3416 times, THEN do_something_scary() 3416*5 times, while the second runs {do_something_terrible(), then 5 do_something_scary()-s} 3416 times. If one depends on the other there will be significantly different re...

Seems there's some pitch bend issues on the current VST version, possibly related to pitch bend sensitivity as well. My brother tried both in FL Studio and only the FL version handled pitch bend correctly.

Current version of Chrome is flagging the zip as "malicious" since it's just an exe in the zip; have to turn off "enable phishing and malware protection" setting to actually download it. Maybe next time use 7zip?

mdscene.net is Oerg's server; if the link is down it's probably because he forgot to put it back up after it last went down.

stopforumspam has an excellent mod for phpbb and I currently use a port on SMF that's just as good. Try that?

For the loop points, you might want to consider reading FF7-style MIDI loop points (text marker CC events named "loopStart" and "loopEnd" respectively on track 0) as that seems to be the most supported in MIDI players (Winamp and Foobar2000 support it, and a couple more obscure ones).

From the videos, that's the most blatant alternate console Mario ripoff I've seen since Giana Sisters. The only thing it seems to be missing is proper level layouts.

Mario 3 sprite + Mario Land Goombas = hilarity ensuing ;)

vgmrips is the home of all things VGM that aren't MD and SMS+GG specific. SMS Power should also still have a copy of mid2vgm-psg and mid2vgm-opll on the forums somewhere.

How random are you looking for? I highly recommend a Mersenne twister implementation if it's small enough for ROM use :)

By all means you can use the instrument parser if you can get the code working. :)

It uses the nall library (which makes SO MANY THINGS EASIER), but I'm sure if you need to you'll be able to port the file reading code to the standard library or something.

@superjoebob - TFI (and VGI as a result) stores detune differently from TYI. TYI stores it as the raw DT1 value that's combined with MUL as if it was setting the YM2612's DT1/MUL register directly. TFI/VGI displays the "resulting" values of -3 to 3 but stores it as (result+3) so to display a value o...
