Will check that, thanks root42.

To ressurrect this thread with at least a partial solution :-) Last time I managed to solve it, perhaps by some setting in the Borland C++ IDE, but then forgot it again :-( Now, toying again with the old PC and some C I have found out, that it maybe has to do with the version of the IDE. When I …

I am going to run it on a Pentium 75MHz so it would be fine, but it would be nice if I was able to run it on a, lets say, a 486DX/40 or similar machine too. Yea, making everything 'far' (or 'huge') is a bruteforce way of using the full 640k memory (you still won't be able to take advantage of XMS or …

#include Try adding that to the top of your source file if you haven't already, as I think it's needed to get malloc() to use the chosen memory model. Thanks, I tried that when testing farmalloc, for malloc it doesnt seem necessary though. Note that in DOS, you are working with 16-bit segmented …

Not sure if this is the right place, but it has to be connected with DosBox. After more than 10 years I have come back to try DOS C (with a bit of asm) programming, remembering more than I expected. But I got stuck not far from the beginning - I can init the clasic mode 13h and put some pixels, yet …

Good to know 😀 It should work just fine as the tracker only uses the default patches... well, more precisely the current loaded patches. Weird posting a message here every five years or so 😊

Hey, if you ever come here again :-) I tried contacting you as I was unable to log in, with no luck. Now I just got through. Havent toucht the tracker frankly, but I wondered if you might have give it another try and as I liked your Praises track a lot, I would be very interested in hearing what you …

I see you too share the partiality to the text mode like I do 😉 The program works just fine, it is a good start to a multi-format player. Good luck! 😀

Nice of you, Thunder, thanks! :happy: Yet this really is not portable. As you said, the whole interface would have to be rewritten, the timing and playing routines... we would end up writing it from scratch anyway as the app does not consist of much else than that :wink: Also, all the text drawing …

WolverineDK: Well, as I mentioned, the sources are real mess, many things are done clumsily enough that I would not like anyone to see :wink: Apart from that, I am not much into releaseing sources, but if there is interest, I will try to improve the tracker. It seems there are not as many people …

It is off-topic, but mentioning the HSC tune, a few weeks ago I created a more modern remix of it using Renoise. If you happen to be interested, get the MP3 here. Hopefully it is allowed to attach MP3 files to messages on this board..

Thank you, 5u3 :blush: I have not touched the source for three years and it is really messy. I had no intention to develop it any further, but I guess that some changes or additions should be possible if there is a need. When composing another tune yesterday, I for example found out that some sort …

Just got myself into tracking again and have made a small remix of an old demo/intro tune. I am not sure what it's name was, but it was in the HSC format, hence the name. In my opinion, it sounds good on the Roland, although the instruments had to be selected with the number of voice parts the MT-32 …

I realized that the controls are in general similar to standard tracker controls, but not all of them, so: Letters - used to write notes (Z-M is the first octave, Q-P the second) / write a silencer (the track will stop playing when the silencer is reached) + change octave up, - change octave down ] …

Hey Thunder, thanks! It is a DOS program because MT-32's native system was DOS in it's era, I have always liked DOS and frankly, never have learned to code in windows for some reason. Try to compose something, maybe you will be surprised to find a talent you were not aware of 😀

I have the same problem with X-COM 1.4 (CD version). The MT-32 won't make a sound there. The best solution I have found is to use the SCC-1 instead, the music sounds very good on it.

Hi there! Today I decided to release my old MT32 Tracker, an app I worked on for two years (I can't believe it now!). I stopped working on it in 2004 and it is far from finished, but I suppose someone else might find it useful too or at least have some fun with it and their good old MT32 module :-) …
