Yes, what is already supporting them?

Have you seen any engine to play these formats?

SC : Asm, C++ & Delphi only.

I hope the next version of UPP was able to play different music 8-bit extensions, such as Slight Atari Player [*. sap], turrican, sunvox, oxm etc. because most of them just use the music extension *. xm, S3m, *. it, *. mid, *. mo3, *. mod, *. FC3 & 4, sc68, mtm, ahx. and sometimes used the same song. lol

hmm ... what you know how to reduce file size, the smallest? ...

I've tried to compress but only down about 750-500kb.

I create my skin and when i try to create the patch i get this message:

In english should be "The input string haven't the right format" or something like that.

If i use default skin the patch is created without problems... is a bug? or i did something wrong?

No, no.. what I meant is a .LIB or .DLL file, ready to get linked with

Which file? The patch.exe? Upack.exe is included and nothing can seriously beat it.

I can only answer that question if you share your template.

Hum, yes.. the skinhelper doesn't moan when you don't define a font,

while uPPP itself already expects a font, that's why it fails.

Let's call it a bug and it will be fixed next time,

so that you don't need to include a font,

although I highly recommend to always define a font

due to ****ed up default font settings (mega large for instance)

on many user machines.

Thx for all the links, but sry.. I still didn't see a usable library.

They are all plug-ins for standalone players or something alike.

I set a font and works like a charm... but patch size is bigger for the font, maybe a default system font could be an option.

Thanks, is a great patch maker.

request/question:

Why doesn't uPPP support S&R at bit level ?

The reason for this:

it happened a few times now, where my patcher fails because a simple register change (EAX<->EBX)

I could've covered this eventuality if there way bit level search in uPPP

example:

C603 00 MOV BYTE PTR DS:[EBX],0

C600 00 MOV BYTE PTR DS:[EAX],0

S&R to cover all registers: C6 0? 00

[Ufo-Pu55y]

At nibble level you mean?

A "C6 ?? 00" would already be too gready?

I'll put it onto the todo list anyway!

cheers

If possible in "File Drop" function can there be os detection as path varies on XP and 7

I got a file drop but confuse in path

%APPDATA% on XP will locate to "%USERPROFILE%\Application Data\FOLDER NAME"

%APPDATA% on 7 will locate to "%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\FOLDER NAME"

but the actual "FOLDER NAME" Path on 7 is located at "%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\FOLDER NAME"

and on XP is located at "%userprofile%\Local Settings\Application Data\FOLDER NAME"
