Mod Player (aka Chiptune Player) Native Extension

I noticed that it does auto-loop for songs so I made test pattern in Milkytracker with 2 snare hits to test and the mod player kept looping it (for the first time returning to start it makes tiny glitchy sounds and I’ve heard those also when it looped included sound files).

I’m aware of that glitch. But honestly I’m not sure why it is happening. It happens on some patterns with some samples(only when starting), but I didn’t investigate it yet. (It shouldn’t happend with .mod files, only with .xm) Somehow it is related to my patch. I’ll take a look at this after the UDGJ2
It is better not to trust the loop for pattern continuity. It is not suitable for this kind of job.

@NeZvers

Is this mod player usable for game sound effects (single play over music or taking over channel like NES music)?

Maybe Interesting idea, I never thought about this. It is quite performant but I’m not sure if it is usable for this kind of a job or not. I’ll definitely try this when I got time.

You can set loop by using; player.music_loop(music, 1) ← single play
