RF-mod 2.0 - electric boogaloo

[osrenan]

Here is one idea:

When you are coosing song there should show how lenght song is.

that was requested before...It would work fine if we add it in the song.ini

[W2k]

It should be possible to read this information from the song .ogg, without loading the entire file. Keeping it in the .ini seems like an ugly hack, and prone to mistakes.

Great mod by the way.

Chuck201, I'm not really sure how to do the translation stuff into other languages. I know FOF has some built in support for doing it but I've never really looked at it.

as far as reading the tag information from the song that requires more libraries to read the .ogg headers which are currently not there. I'm not super sure I want to add that bloat at this point.

So basicly you've already come up with a better way to solve the same problem. Good to know.
Just one little point - is it possible to turn off this feature on a track-by-track basis? For example, a track that is just acoustic guitar and should be completely muted by mistakes?

In those cases you could simply create an empty song.ogg file so it will detect a song.ogg, and it would mute the guitar while playing the song.ogg, which is blank.

You know, that's got me thinking, wouldn't it be sweet to get some Jazz songs FoF'ed?

[Rogue_F]

lol

[Rogue_F]

It will be released before 4.0

[winniez]

good answer

[evilTak]

How about linux support? Or am I the only one here rocking FoF on GNU/Linux?

[Rogue_F]

Linux is on my todo list.

There should be a new official version out soon, so that will have linux support. I just have to make my linux dev environment work.

I'm glad to hear that. I was really disappointed when I saw this mod couldn't run under Linux.
I quickly tested it when I could get my hands on a windows computer, and I must say it totally kicks ass. Now, if there was also a linux version, that would be great !

It will be released before 4.0

Damn.
If we ever make forum awards things, this goes for best answer

[el nini]

I reckon that with some nifty reverse temperal engineering, I can make 4.0 come out before 3.0 without RF even realising!

needs linux badly
