Just to let you know - I'm looking into this. I've converted quite a few esoteric formats in my time, and this one isn't proving too difficult (helped massively by the ProTracker conversion Larry found, of course!). I should have something ready by tomorrow.
Points of interest: the notes seem to be stored backwards in every pattern (first time I've seen that one!), there is (as far as I can tell, completely useless) three bytes padding before every pattern, and the sample data is unsigned.
Thank s for the upload, excellent job converting the OMF files to StarTrekker modules. However I can tell that all converted 8 channel modules (FLT8) do not play as intended, hence there is some flaw in the conversion process. I hope you can solve that. Maybe Asle can assist you here?When you say it 'does not play as intended', do you mean it sounds normal, just the wrong speed, or that it's really messed up?

Can you please try playing this file and tell me if it works?That one appears to play correct. Well done! :) Let's do that same treatment to the other 8 channels modules and we should be set. Does the format description need to be updated as well?

Except for your conversion of shiva_furnace.mod which sounds badly wrong (ouch, my ears :P ), and the rhythm of the beat that starts at order 01 is off. You certainly intent to punish us, do you? ;DYep - I recognise that problem. All the finetunes have been blanked. 'Battle squadron' has a similar problem. Taking another look at the C code, I can't see anything to write the finetune values anywhere. It's a signed 16-bit little endian value at offset 22 in the sample info block, and it's the MOD range (-8 to 7) multiplied by minus 487. Took me some time to work it out! :)
@deus-ex: Incidentally, how did loading the file into Milkytracker and saving it to ProTracker set all the finetunes? That must be one powerful program! :DHeh, If I could explain the "how" I would code a tracker or player myself. :)
ok, fixed the src and reran the converter on all cases.Muchas gracias, senor. :D
Who is Viba anyway ? Any clue, anyone ?Nope, no info available. Seems to be a "one-module-only" artist so far.
Argh ... Xlat just showed me there's another pb.Whoopsy! Good job somebody pointed that out - although I was listening to Humbug-tra earlier today, and I did wonder...
It's about the pattern break command (D**). It must contain decimal figures, while, in here, it's hexadecimal. Shows pretty well in the hambug-tra music. *geee* ... I'll update the source (again) and list the affected musics.
