I need tracked music for a game. .mod .xm .it .mid whatever
14 years ago
So I'm writing this music game for the iPhone (and probably free or something for the PC) and while you will be able to throw your own tracked music at it, I'd like to actually ship it with some tracks because people are, well, dumb (I've gotten bad reviews for Desert Truck because people couldn't figure out how to steer, or press the help button apparently). So! Basically what this is going to do is take a mod file, strip out it's BPM, and throw junk at you to jump over and stuff to the music. For endless files, it'll just keep ramping up the difficulty until you eventually fail. So! Does anybody know anybody who does .mod files? None of my friends seem to do it and I'm not really up for going around asking people if I can use their music because some people just just get off on rejecting people and if anyone wants to play their music in the game they can put it in themselves. So, anyone? Only .mod .xm and .it are supported, but I can convert midis (sometimes). I'll be converting .mods to .xms because the file format is just too tough to handle, and I'd like to support .it files, but I haven't found the specification for it yet.

:O damn I wanna do something, but I'm so rusty. And I know how effed up it is converting midi to .mod, etc.. I have a couple from an abandoned gba game you can have if they fit.

I'd give them a listen. I'm not being picky. I just need SOMETHING in there so people don't rage that the game doesn't work because they are DUMB.

Wait a sec.... did you just make 3d vib ribbon? :D Also what are the controls?

Currently, it's just on autoplay. I haven't actually started coding the game yet. I will once I get it importing music and generating levels. And yeah, it's sort of the same idea as Vib Ribbon.

Thanks a ton. You're actually the reason I want to support .it music. I searched FA for "mod music" to see if I could track down anyone to approach and found your MJ cover. I heard it before, but I didn't know it was an actual mod file.

Thanks again. That file was totally confusing to me, but my boyfriend figured out the offsets.
