Open ModPlug Player

[sunshine]

I can't get this to play any mptm modules, tried the open button and also dragged and dropped, same result, program quits.

EDIT - got it working now, it was a problem with the audio ouptut (and stupid user)

I just added this bug to known bugs list. Thanks n0cturn. It is not your mistake, it is related to missing exception handling.
Added known bug item: Application crashes when corrupted or unsupported file is loaded. It is related to exception handling, and on the next alpha release it will be fixed.

On Alpha 5 release, we will have full functional playlist editor. On a future alpha release, I consider to make "format" and "filename/path" fields parametric. Current preview image is below.

Looking good, I think when you hit Alpha 6, it would be my goto Mod Player.
For me only few things I would that would make it perfect:
1: Prev / Next ( as you mentioned for Alpha 6)
2: Working Audio Resolution: (have 1 24bit 192kh surround sound)
3: Working interpolation page( I prefer to not have any filters, as for me is takes away the imperfections I like)

Out of interest, what are your goto Mods you enjoy the most. So many out there it's easy to miss great ones.
Most of my ones come from the 90s PC and Atari ST demo scene, from the obvious Second reality, Unreal / Tournament, Amnesia, Cascada, Oh crikey what a scorcher(ST).https://youtu.be/Ea5Zk3zspOE

Keep up the good work.

This feature is almost ready. Just a small bug will be fixed.

2: Working Audio Resolution: (have 1 24bit 192kh surround sound)

This is one of the most wanted feature. I may complete this feature on Alpha 6 release.

3: Working interpolation page( I prefer to not have any filters, as for me is takes away the imperfections I like)

Interpolation mode can be set using Filter button on the player window (and Amiga Filter type can also be set using Amiga button on the player window). I will make "Player" page on Setup window functional on Alpha 6 version, and stereo separation setting will also be functional.

Thanks for sharing this very nice mod. My favorite mods are from old Amiga games and demos, tracker groups and DJs from 1990s and 2000s. I am planning to share all of my mod archive by making an iso file (it takes up 2.5GB), but it will take some time to arrange it. I may share it this year or maybe next year.

I am currently working on a better architecture. The architecture of ModPlug Player will be more event based on Alpha 6 release (it will be almost completely Event Driven Architecture (EDA)). This will increase the development time of Alpha 6 release. Probably Alpha 6 release will be released next month. Next releases will be more stable and more consistent.
I wanted this architecture replacement before beta versions.
