I see the mouse slows down a lot when using Linux in Full screen... If I enable "Software Mouse" it gets a bit better but still it's slow, while if I exit full screen mouse is working normal as expected.

I'm using an XM converter and noticed that it gets the note volumes (volume column byte) wrong. The converter assumes that the values are in the 00-64 range, but they are actually offset by 16, i.e. in the 16-80 range. The same is true for XMs produced by MilkyTracker. I cannot find any information that suggests using this range in the XM specs that I have looked at.

• https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:XM_(file_format)
• https://www.celersms.com/doc/XM_file_format.pdf

The first spec doesn't really specify any range. The second one suggest a volume column byte in the 00-64 range:

+2 1 byte Volume column byte 00 (0..64, 255)

I'm assuming that the converter is the one that gets it wrong, but I'm curious about why. So I'm wondering if I'm missing something in the spec.

Stupid question, might be a user error :-)

I'm using v1.68 build, fresh install.

I click space to edit, then start pressing buttons. Strangely, it is not recording a single block, but rather a diagonal pattern. See picture below, easier. Is that the intended behaviour? :-) Looks pretty strange to me.

Hello! I would like to report a bug. I run FT2 on a fullscreen vsync'd setup, on Debian 11 running XFCE (AMD64). The application compiles fine and all, but I am having an issue where the size of the mouse is half as big as it was before, reaching the size of the normal one on non-FT2 setups (though you can change the type of the mouse in FT2 settings, just that it still looks wrong size-wise). I tried running the software mouse and it reverts back to the original position, albeit with obviously a bit of a delay due to vsync. This behavior didn't happen in previous releases of FT2 (Had 1.71, upgraded to 1.77)

Cheers!

Actual:

Expected:

This should make the product easier to use without need to lean very close to the screen
Liner interpolation optional (nearest doesn't look good in scales between 1x and 2x usually)

The delete key doesn't seem to work. Is there something I need to setup or change in system config?

Hello,

I've recently tested the latest revision of ft2-clone on my machine. I'm running Arch Linux with the i3 window manager.

When ft2-clone uses the hardware mouse, the cursor position doesn't match with what I'm clicking on, if I do the following:

1. Running ft2-clone in windowed mode.
2. Going fullscreen by pressing Super+F.

Activating the software mouse fixes the issue… and it looks better in my humble opinion, since the cursor position have to be aligned with the pixels drawn on the screen.

Hello. I tried to use a version FT2C that I downloaded many months ago. Whenever I would launch it, it would open a blank window which instantly crashed. And then a minute later, my Windows 10 64 OS would get a BSOD with the message IRQL_not_less_or_equal, and then my PC would reset. I tried the program multiple times and each time the same thing would happen.

I've now downloaded the latest version of FT2C. When I launch it, the program window loads, and it appears like it should (it isn't blank), but it still crashes within a second of launching. However, I don't get the BSOD as frequently with the latest version. I was able to launch it, and watch it crash, multiple times without getting the BSOD. But then on another launch it gave me the same BSOD. And after my PC restarted, I did the same thing: Launched it and watched it crash multiple times without getting a BSOD, but then on another try getting the BSOD after it crashed.

Attached is a photo of the BSOD. By the way, your ProTracker 2 clone hasn't crashed on launch or caused a BSOD on my system during the time that I've tested it out.

My system is running Windows 10 LTSC 1809 with 16 GB of RAM on an i7 2600k, and has an Auzentech Prelude sound card.

I set up a basic instrument where I mapped different samples to keyboard notes.
For example I made a simple drum patch with kick, hat, snare, on 3 notes on keyboard. See screenshot of mapping.

But when I reload the saved instrument, the key split mappings are lost and rest to all 0s.

What am I doing wrong?

For example, take the first 16 channels as FM and the last 16 channels as PCM? Just like the chord mobile phone sound source equipped with YMU762MA-3 sound chip, FM timbre instruments can be customized? Will this idea come true?

Some files are missing in CMakeLists.txt. After adding these two lines, it works.

    "${ft2-clone_SOURCE_DIR}/src/modloaders/*.c"
    "${ft2-clone_SOURCE_DIR}/src/smploaders/*.c"

尊敬的開發者大大：請問FT2可以順利的移植到移動安卓設備上嗎🤔？如果可以的話就讓他在移動設備上再次大放廣彩吧😊！

Dear developer: Can FT2 be successfully ported to mobile Android devices🤔? If possible, let him show off again on mobile devices😊!

I compile ft2 1.44 on Fedora 33.
At the end of the compilation, I've got a link problem:

Hello, I try to copy sample or instrument using S.E.Ext and always get a crash. version 1.47 Win 10

Fn+Enter doesn't work, unfortunately.

Is there any way to rebind the short keys somehow?

Does not play stereo .mod files in stereo.
Does FT2 support stereo output?

Dear developer,

I was trying to compile ft2-clone in Linux (I am using Arch Linux) and I had to replace two lines inside CMakeLists.txt:

The lines that had to be replaced where:

target_link_libraries(ft2-clone
    PRIVATE m asound pthread ${SDL2_LIBRARIES})

And they were replaced by:

target_link_libraries(ft2-clone PRIVATE asound SDL2::SDL2)

Without this change, Linux is unable to build ft2-clone, it does not find SDL2 libraries.

As I remember in FT2 by pressing the "space" key the Song will start or stop playing.

Hello,
ALT + F3/F4/F5 not work in 1.71 on Windows 11, older versions worked. Tried with GeForce Experience uninstalled, not work too.

Hi!

I recently wanted to add ft2-clone to Fedora, and it was pointed out to me (and I indeed missed that) that ft2-clone includes some non-free graphics unlike pt2-clone:

https://github.com/8bitbubsy/ft2-clone/blob/master/src/gfxdata/bmp/LICENSE.txt

This raises several questions:

• From the LICENSE.txt, it is unclear which file is under which license. Is it that only "ft2AboutLogo.bmp" and "midiLogo.bmp" are under the same license, or what files are those "the rest of the graphics"?
• Were there any attempts to convince the original author to release under a different license?
• If the original author agrees to release under a different license, would you agree to release your changes under a different license, too?
• Would you consider it acceptable to swap these graphics with different, free graphics?

Thanks.

Hello,
default directories not work anymore after patch 1.21 on windows 10

Hi @8bitbubsy

First I must congratulate your for the brilliant and excellent work you are doing.

I am sure you may have looked at this. However, I want to understand your choice of linking against the DLL version of MSCRT instead of the static version.

I see that you have a text file explaining folks to download and install the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable. However, you could avoid this by just linking against LIBCMT.lib (/MT) in the VS Solution. This will allow you to get rid of the above text file and save your users one step.

Hello,
can't find a key to enter "volume slide up" command in volume column. '+' nor "shift + '+'" not work for me. US keyboard layout.

In NixOS we use cmake to build this package, and I noticed that it'd only require a few CMakeLists.txt modifications to make it work on mac os too, namely:

• define __MACOSX_CORE__ instead of __LINUX_ALSA__ when building on mac os
• add the -framework CoreAudio -framework CoreMIDI -framework CoreServices -framework Cocoa linking flags when building on mac os (not sure how this is done in cmake)
• only link asound when building on linux

this would make it possible to drop the ad-hoc make-*.sh scripts

on wayland, when using hardware mouse, the mouse click is not registered where the mouse cursor is.

i tinkered a bit and this could be a good fix:

diff --git a/src/ft2_video.c b/src/ft2_video.c

i've tested above change in:

• i3 (xorg)
• sway (wayland)
• weston (wayland)

and it seems to fix the issue (and not break on xorg).

it gives me this.

I'm running Pop_OS! and whenever I click on a setting to increment it up or down it increments far too fast for me to be precise. Settings such as BPM, speed, pattern, anything to do with the GUI is incredibly difficult to get to a specific value. I've tried both the pre-compiled binaries and building it from source myself and they both yield the same result.

I try to build 1.41 on Fedora 32 64 bits and the build fails with the following error:

      |    ^~~~~~

How to reproduce:

Start FT2 clone, add 2 channels (making it 10) and keep pressing TAB. On the last channel, the view does not wrap around to channel 1 and the cursor is stuck in a weird place in between channels 9 and 10.

Something like this (where the square brackets should represent the cursor):

CH9         CH10
--- -- 0[00 -]-- -- 000 

Note inputs then end up on channel 1.

This is with v1.28 on Win64.

I am using FT2 Clone with a Windows 8 tablet, and it works great except the touchscreen has one issue: when I touch to click, the click appears always in the last position I touched the screen, not the one I am currently touching. Basically if I touch twice in the same place it will click the button under the touchscreen, but if I try to touch something else, it always click first on the last position. A sort of workaround is to not click (touch) but drag and position where I want to click, then touch twice and goes ahead, which makes all the experience ultra slow and cumbersome. Is there a reason for this? I only have this issue with FT2 Clone and with PT2 Clone, all other app works as expected with touchscreen

thank you

After updating from version v1.80 to v1.81, the following regression occurs:

ft2-clone /tmp/some.xm

The audio track plays normal but 'Error' box appears:

As soon as OK is pressed the player crashes:

The following SDL versions are present on the system:

sdl2-2.30.1
sdl2_gfx-1.0.4
sdl2_image-2.6.3_5
sdl2_mixer-2.6.3_1
sdl2_ttf-2.20.2

Seems like the copy paste keybindings dont work. When I ALT + F4 it prompts me if I want to exit or not. When I try to paste nothing happens.

Im using the version in Linux Mint software repository.

Is there a way around this? It has to do with permissions to use audio input
also would be great a way to stop audio recording without keyboard
thank you

(i know, not a big deal, but thought you might want to know)

When setting the desktop color to black, all the obstacles in nibbles are invisible. Could be a case of "it's not a bug, it's a feature" (aka blind mode), but maybe a warning message would be nice if the desktop color/luminance is set too low to play without surprises. :)
