- Perverter v1.41
- ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
- As long as you're here, I might just aswel use this little file for some
- other useless info.
-
- - This version (1.41) was released about 7 hours after 1.4. The reason for
- this is that I didn't know how to fix the second Prom1 bug at the time of
- release. A few hours after Radavi had sent all his packages I came up with
- the solution, so there, now you know.
-
- - If you rip a module by hand (ie. not with exotic/multi or any other
- musicripper), you usualy save more data with the module than necesary.
- When you then load this data in perverter, the calculated size of the
- module will ofcourse be smaller than that of the file.
-
- - The REAL size of raw P4XX modules might sometimes differ from the one
- that perverter calculated. This is caused by the fact that P4XX modules
- sometimes have some extra sampinfo. What's it for? I haven't got a clue.
- Sometimes it's there, and sometimes it isn't.
-
- - If you by any chance decide to send me any new module formats, *PLEASE*,
- and I repeat, *PLEASE*, send me the (DMS'ed) program it came from so I
- can take a gander at the replayer and thus avoid any potential bugs. To
- avoid any trouble with FART/BumaStemra/BundesSoftwareSchutz or whatever:
- If the program is commercial then just send me the module and the name
- of program it came from. If you have enough technical knowledge you may
- try and rip the replayer yourself and send that piece of code instead of
- the entire program. The reasons that Perverter contained as many bugs
- as it did are:
-
- -1- I didn't have the replayer to find out how a format was built; I had
- to discover that by closely examining the module.
- -2- I only had one or two module to test the converter with.
- -3- Pure stupidity. (Well, how's that for modesty eh?)
-
- A small 'history' of perverter.
