- ?!?!?!? Couldn't understand nothing
out of these bytes. Though, it's fairly safe to say that there might
be the number of pattern in pattern list ... . It's possible to
convert without this info, but it's VERY hard !
- pattern list (128 dword) |
it's a table of pointers which points at the adresses of the pattern
data in the "PhaPacked" file. So, the pattern 0 will be the one starting
right after the smp data. Beware of the unused patterns when converting
!
stored the same way as Protracker
Stored like protracker .. meaning:
row 01: voice 1 | voice 2 | voice 3 | voice 4
row 02: voice 1 | voice 2 | voice 3 | voice 4
...
each voice is 4 bytes (ot two bytes .. see below)
Note Packing :

$ff value
|
If the first byte is $ff, then the following byte is the number of
times the previous value in THIS row will be re-used. Well, in fact,
it's ($ff-value) number of times !
exemple :
01-02-0A-0A 00-00-0F-06 02-00-00-37 FF-F5
1st four bytes : Sample #1, Note #1, Fx Vol Slide, FxArg $0A.
2nd four bytes : no sample, no note, Fx Set Speed, FxArg $06.
3rd four bytes : sample #2, no note, no Fx or arpeggio,
FxArg $37.
4th block : $ff meaning previous block (02-00-00-37) will
be repeated FF-F5=0A times IN THE VOICE #3 !!!
