@MrKyurem
A well deserved break, I think. We have great software at no cost on our part.

0cc Famitracker hasn't had an update for a little while either.
I don't know if Hertz thinks he's done with it or something.
I know the 0cc Hiatus hasn't been as long the as the Famitracker Beta 5 Hiatus, but i'm just pointing it out.

I am working on my own fork of AddmusicK (Super Mario World SPC MML compiler-inserter) because it is in much direr need for rewrite than FamiTracker.

And really, most people still don't know most 0CC-FamiTracker features they will need, whether they are users or not. It will keep people entertained for years.

Should we just make 0CC official? I haven't been on the forums for a while, but it seems jsr is still missing. I don't know if we'll ever get a complete version of 0.5

[HertzDevil]

I don't think I have mentioned this outside the Discord server, so here it is:

Once it is determined that 0.5.0 stable is statistically unlikely to be released at all, 0CC-FamiTracker will cease to be vanilla-compatible so that it can add even more features that are prohibited by file format issues alone. It also means that, starting from as soon as early 2018, newer 0CC-FT modules will not be openable in the vanilla builds; after all, backward compatibility is no longer required if enough people switch to 0CC-FT.

As for making 0CC-FT "official", I have already said on multiple occasions that vanilla FamiTracker is the official FamiTracker and 0CC-FamiTracker the official 0CC-FamiTracker. It is just a matter of calling one of these the "de facto standard" NES tracker.

[Teuthida]

Pretty nice! What kind of features do you have in mind?

[BioMechanicalDude]

The point here is to make it "legal" to post 0CC files on these forums. Because if jsr really doesn't come back to Famitracker, while 0CC gets new releases, what would be the point in restricting ourselves? This is what I was talking about.

[Teuthida]

Welp, I guess that since vanilla FT is now seriously outdated and all the mods are gone, it seems that 0CC can become the de facto standard for uploads here...

[RushJet1]

What do you mean "all the mods are gone?"



Oh
