- you're getting into a hazy area.... there are many standard mod formats.
- I believe the most popular are Protracker and S3m. The protracker format is
- available with most distributions of Protracker. As far as the S3m format,
- ya got me.
-
-
- here are the different formats i can think of...
-
- Screamtracker 3 .s3m
- Screamtracker .stm
- Protracker .mod
- Fasttracker .mod
- ?? .mtm
- UltraTracker .ult
- ?? .669
- Unitracker .uni
-
- ... the list is seemingly endless ...
