Another advantage of Nuked SC55 over SCVA is portability. I don’t really feel like spinning up a copy of Falcosoft MIDI Player in wine to host a virtual midi port on Linux. Then again, I guess it’s not much more or less overhead than running an instance of the emulator, except I have to use a drm …

Downloaded where? I can share the original .lds files, and my midi processing library and associated players can play them with their embedded GM mappings. Though you will need to send a reset to the midi device when done, since it leaves all channels with a full octave as the range for the pitch …

Did you reset the emulator first? Did you try both gm and gs reset modes? Also, are you using my midi_processing library to convert the loudness tracks to midi? (My library uses a novel conversion based on adplug and also does one thing the game only does for fm: portamento)

This synthesizer appears to be affected by this bug: https://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?t=85837 Edit: Here's the reset procedure you need to do every time you turn it on with this emulator: 1) Press Q to turn it off. 2) Press and hold Y and U, then press Q to turn it back on. 3) Press W to answer …

If it’s not widely distributed yet, it will probably at least end up in MAME software distribution at some point.

BASSMIDI itself is a library, and is available for macOS, Linux 32 and 64, and also various mobile platforms. I once built a host for creating an ALSA virtual MIDI port for BASSMIDI on Linux, but it never succeeded in loading the compression plugins unless I gave them absolute paths. https:// …

I still have the source to the host bridge, since it's part of foo_midi, but I appear to have lost the source code to the driver itself. You're probably better off using a loopback driver with a dedicated VST host application, as it will allow sharing a single instance of the VST plugin with …

I'm not sure if it's a demo version or a lazily packaged pirate "abandonware" copy that I played all those years ago, but I had TIM 3 and it had HMI MIDI sequences that looped. No CD to speak of. I also notice the popular rip of Betrayal at Krondor only has two of the three enemy encounter themes. …

Or use 0.5 pixel less as the bottom/right texture coordinates.

The performance is probably not the same for a large amount of this forum’s user base who still use it on single core processors. Just looking out for those people still rocking their museum pieces.

Huh, bookmarks. Now there’s something I haven’t used effectively in years... These days, I just leap to a search engine, type an url from memory, or that failing, a fulltext search on my indefinite browser history.
