Feature requests, suggestions / Module music... again
« on: October 21, 2007, 11:26:03 AM »
Hi!
I searched in the forums before posting, and I know this have been requested at least once here... but that's from 2003!
So I'm requesting it again: Mnemonic, could you please add module support to WME? (I don't know how to do humble requests in English
) In that ooold post, you said you'll be adding it when you find a good library with a good license too. So, have you considered using libmikmod? Can't tell you what the memory requirements are (used it a long time ago) but license is LGPL, so I think it will fit.
Don't take me wrong, OGG support is REALLY great (I don't think MP3 support is needed, even if license changed) but IT/S3M/MOD/etc... have great advantages as well (I have a few mods that runs 10 minutes in 200ks. I know today size doesn't matter, but I frankly prefer a 3Mb download than a 15Mb one... It's more appealing
) Also, I think it's more easy to do that neat "dynamic music" trick like Monkey Island 2 does (don't remember if music is modular or a stream, but I think it's the former)
Thanks, at least, for reading my *always* long post!
P.D. Mnemonic, just in the very likely case you don't want to add it, could it be possible for me to add it through a plugin? Thanks!
Update: I've seen the plugin interface and I think this is possible. I'll try...

. When you deselect "Use 3D acceleration if available" (In ProjectMan, at least), closes the options window and open it again, the "Force..." checkbuttons are enabled instead of grayed out.
