today in DS homebrew development

"why the hell does maxmod choke on this .it file? it's not doing anything weird...

...oh, it's way too large to fit in RAM because of a bunch of completely unused and massive looped samples. that's better

ok now why the hell is maxmod playing it too slow...

...oh, because it caps the tempo at 255 bpm and maxmod doesn't warn you about this at all"

come on

i'm at the point where i'm simultaneously hoping i can actually get this thing done in time for the party and also ready for it to be finished already so i can work on something else
@revenant The party?
Deadline 2018

A non-commercial computer arts and multimedia festival held annually - this year for the 5th time!

@revenant isn't the 255 cap a fasttracker limitation?
@colon_three now that i think about it it might have been that way in IT too so this could have just been some modplug extension or something
