Hmm, actually I think I've got the necessary MDX components without bad licensing. I'll attempt to make it work ;-)

Got the FM part working, now adding the .PDX loader for the ADPCM...done. It's fully alive, and I've sent Richard the changes.

Odd, the MDX pack for the X68k port of Xexex doesn't include 'Crystal Clear', which is that game's trademark song. I wonder if the rip's incomplete or the port was smile

Not working on the Mac side right now due to possible endian issues; I'm chasing that up at the minute.

Found it. Uninitialised variable problem in opm.h, line 1340; res is never set and the timer doesn't happen on the Mac. I don't hear any ADPCM though, so I'm gonna check that now.

D'oh. That's what I get for making it compile, sleeping 8 hours, then making it work - missing an ASM bit.

Probably an issue with finding/loading the .pdx if ADPCM's not playing.

Yup, it was. All good now. I'll drop you my patched version in a few minutes when I've tweaked a little more.

Road to madness: go to VORC.org, search on "KBMedia player", note the long list of tantalizing Japanese computer formats it plays, then try to find source, info, or even the songs themselves for any of them.

I've been mad for quite a while now, but not quite insane enough for that. Honestly, I think that beween MDX and KSS we probably have the two highest profile formats covered, though if someone can point me to info and sample songs for other formats I'll gladly delve into them.
