A tracker that saves as Protracker MOD

Post by Baggypants »

A friend is developing a game to work on the old Atari Jaguar console and has asked for files to be in the old Amiga Protracker MOD format. All the trackers I've found on linux play MOD but save as XM or IT. Are there any tools that save as MOD?

Did you try Milkytracker?
http://milkytracker.org/?about

Description says "editing .MOD files" - not sure how this works in practice though...

Modplug tracker ( a windows app) works well with wine on Linux (EDIT: and saves Protracker MOD)

I did try milky, I couldn't figure out how to get it to save protracker, only XM and it kept crashing. I'll try and mail the dev.

Best option. At least the dev is aware of wine.

I have yet to find a tracker on Linux as good as this. It is open source, I do not know the licence. I would love to have this on Linux with Jack support so I could synchronise it with Ardour.
EDIT: It has a BSD license https://source.openmpt.org/browse/openm ... PT/LICENSE
