I'm waiting for PB 4.20 !!!
I'm waiting for PB 4.20 !!!
I have never programmed Pure Basic, but this sounds pretty interesting. I'm a Blitz3D programmer for some time, but since Blitz3D hasn't evolved since several years, and Direct X 7 support is gone from Vista, I was thrilled that PB 4.2 will be Direct X 9 ! Also, support libraries from ModPlug is really awesome as I have written hundreds of tracker files in ModPlug Tracker, so I am apt in making music using that tool and I know how to use it to make it sound like I want.
Now, the major point I want to make is that I enjoy Blitz3D because it has all the 3D stuff in it and it just works. But I want to know if PB is easy to use and pozerful for 3D? Has anyone done a 3D app using PB and can send me screenies or maybe a youtube video?
Cheers

Maybe you should make some searches like: 'DirectX9', 3D, 'Ogre' and 'Irrlicht' here on the forum first.JJ Malone wrote:Now, the major point I want to make is that I enjoy Blitz3D because it has all the 3D stuff in it and it just works.

ModPlug Player not the best way for playing modules... Search for BASS.dll on this forum (I'm also tracker musician)

- BASS is a very quality sound system. XMPlay (I'm thinking that it more great player for modules than ModPlug player) is based on BASS. Also U can convert your modules to compact format mo3.JJ Malone wrote:- I really like ModPlug to play my modules that I composed *in* ModPlug for fidelity.
- Dreamotion is Direct X7 no? It doesn't have shadow system?
- I'm looking at the Irrlicht Wrapper right now ( and it's looking nice!)
Thanks SofT MANiAC
I'm also using MPT (Open Modplug Tracker) and I'm playing my modules with BASS in my games
- Dreamotion is DirectX 9 based, realized very many features, including shadows
- Irrlicht 4ever!

Well, BASS is commercial product (except for freeware), so yes i think than ModPlug is the best royality free module player (and output quite a good quasility - i was as well a tracker musician ).SofT MANiAC wrote:ModPlug Player not the best way for playing modules...

ModPlug is a good player, but BASS have more features. I have bought it and I'm very happy 100 euros not a money in a modern world
For playing XM-music I can advise userlibrary uFMOD by my friends Quantum and Asterix:

Does BASS support Cutoff/Resonance effects of the IT format?
Windows 10 Pro, 64-Bit / Whose Hoff is it anyway?
PureBasic supports the Blitz SDK, if you still want to use Blitz.
There is also a product that supports DarkBasic Professional for PureBasic called PureGDK which is to be released within the next couple of days:

100 euros, why not, but 950 euros and 2450 euros is quite some money.

Just wondering, what is missing to ModPlug to be a good module player ?Shareware licence: €100
The "shareware" licence allows the usage of BASS in an unlimited number of your shareware products, which must sell for no more than 40 Euros each. If you're an individual (not a corporation) making and selling your own software (and its price is within the limit), this is the licence for you.
Single Commercial licence: €950
The "single commercial" licence allows the usage of BASS in a single commercial product.
Unlimited Commercial licence: €2450
The "unlimited commercial" licence allows the usage of BASS in an unlimited number of your commercial products. This licence applies to a single site/location.

Also BASS have a lot of plugins (DSP, MIDI, Winamp plugins import... etc.)

Who cares? We are talking about standard formats wich would be MOD, S3M, XM and IT modules. And you still didn't answer my question:SofT MANiAC wrote:BASS have own format - mo3 (MP3 or OGG compressed samples). Size of module can be 2 kb in result!
Is BASS supporting Cutoff/Resonance effects of the IT format?
TBH, in terms of module playback there's nothing better than ModPlug and it's free!
Windows 10 Pro, 64-Bit / Whose Hoff is it anyway?
That's just silly, no-one will use the 'mo3' module to do 2kb module while the replayer will need mp3/ogg decoder (and take quite some kb!). Ok, let's stop this, my main point was the following: why advise another library to a new user (possibly harder to use, crossplateform issue etc.) when the one provided with PureBasic is more than enough for average use ?SofT MANiAC wrote:BASS have own format - mo3 (MP3 or OGG compressed samples).

Agree absolutely this time with Fluid Byte.
Anyway i don't know how Deliplayer does the replay, but the sound quality is much higher than XMplay (I use both for years).
And btw, i confirmed time ago that the replay routine for final sound quality is higher in ModPlug than in XMplay (which suposely uses bass.dll for the mods replaying)

The only difference I can think of would be the sound interpolation. What ModPlug, BASS, XMPlay and all other tools share are common sound properties. This would be frequency (44100Hz), channels (stereo) and bitrate (16-Bit). But in ModPlug there are 3 ways of interpolating sound as well as some other options to increase sound quality. Although the sound output for the version of ModPlug wich is built into PB can't be changed I simply guess most of the settings are set for optimal quality.Psychophanta wrote:Anyway i don't know how Deliplayer does the replay, but the sound quality is much higher than XMplay.
