Re: Yamaha SW1000XG... piano sounds in passport.mid?

Try playing the MIDI with channels 13 through 16 disabled. Some older MIDIs like Passport have a separate "Basic MIDI" version of the song in those channels, compared to the "Extended MIDI" version in channels 1-10. Since in normal General MIDI the drum channel tends to be mapped to channel 10, you …

Re: VGMSlap - DOS OPL1/2/3 VGM Player

Hi. Thanks for the nice tool. I was trying VGMSlap the other day to capture instruments from actual game music and replicate them inside of Adlib Tracker 2. However, several parameters are shown "interpreted" in VGMSlap rather than actual register values. AdTrack2 takes the register numbers without …

Re: VGMSlap - DOS OPL1/2/3 VGM Player

R3 has just been released: https://github.com/MrKsoft/vgmslap/releases/tag/r3 vgmslap-r3.png Added some bars at the bottom of the screen showing channel output levels by simulating the ADSR rates. There are a few edge cases where it isn't accurate but overall it provides a good approximation. …

Re: VGMSlap - DOS OPL1/2/3 VGM Player

R2 is now available, with lots of fixes: https://github.com/MrKsoft/vgmslap/releases/tag/r2 Rewrote screen update code to only write screen areas when the actual chip data changes instead of refreshing the whole thing. Performance is only marginally better overall, but it is much more responsive on …

Re: VGMSlap - DOS OPL1/2/3 VGM Player

Yeah, I should have put that in the readme - it is probably not going to work in Windows because it sets up an ISR8 handler and changes the PIT frequency to 44100hz/DIVIDER. IIRC Windows in protected mode prevents this from working as expected. There are probably more friendly ways to do timing but …

Re: VGMSlap - DOS OPL1/2/3 VGM Player

Thanks for the test file. It makes sense, since 0x66 is the "end of sound data" command and any properly formed VGM should have it, but I don't want it unceremoniously crashing either. One mitigation I could do at least is better bounds checking to see if the player overruns the end of a file. …

VGMSlap - DOS OPL1/2/3 VGM Player

I recently released VGMSlap, a player for OPL1/2/3 VGM files under MS-DOS. It is certainly not the first and definitely will not be the last VGM player for DOS - but it's mine! vgmslap.png I wrote it as a learning experience for both MS-DOS programming and C in general, so it might still be rough …

Re: SBVGM (DOS) VGM Player

I can confirm the issue as well switching between 4-op and 2-op mode with some of my own files as well. (But I forgot to report it earlier, my apologies!) Try my cover of "Door into Summer" (OPL3 with 4-op enabled) followed by my cover of "Empty Beach" (which is OPL2 only) and things will sound …

Re: Help me find a Long lost midi file?

I'm a MIDI hoarder, so I just did a filename search on anything containing "wander" or "wonder". Then I trimmed it down by removing anything obviously wrong (slow songs, piano songs, etc), though I did stretch your definition a bit to include anything relatively lively just in case. Admittedly, …

Re: Setting up network shares for Windows 98 on a NAS?

in Milliways
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't believe you can reshare a mounted network drive as a network drive in itself (at least on Windows) so that couldn't be used to "downgrade" the protocol. Although I suppose that would be possible on a Linux box if you mounted the SMB share in /etc/fstab. Probably …

Re: Setting up network shares for Windows 98 on a NAS?

in Milliways
So, a bit worried - Samba 4.16 is getting dangerously close to dropping SMBv1 support . Right now, mostly depreciating non-NTLMv2 parts of the protocol, which is mostly okay if you're dealing with Win9x and above, but they make it clear that SMBv1 is completely going away soon. This effectively will …
