.MOD to .XM music conversion?
« on: May 12, 2017, 02:32:02 PM »
Hey guys, wondering if anyone knows a way to convert mod files to xm files? Not finding any converter online, maybe this is an impossible conversion situation with the way its tracked. 
Basically im trying to get the L2 music tracks to play on my lemmings DS, which seems to only read .xm files

Or if anyone has L2 music in xm format already, that would be awsome if you could share it.
Thanks

As far as I remember, .xm is a more powerful format than .mod so conversion should be easy. Try open it in ModPlugTracker/OpenMPT, and save as xm.

I just tried with milkytracker (as OpenMPT doesn't have a linux version), and it worked (the button Disk Op allows you to save in different formats). You can find milkytracker here: http://milkytracker.titandemo.org/

Works great, yesss
Gonna be in Florida for 10 days, nicer to have a bigger music directory for the DS version, and music is randomly chosen each level on the DS.

Thanks again.
