As you can see, the openmpt.org front page has changed quite a bit! The
new custom theme should be easier and more fun to use.
One of the most notable changes is that the search box now points to the
OpenMPT wiki, as there is not much interesting content on the front page
that would be useful to search for.
Replacing the old and outdated XWiki, our new English OpenMPT
Wiki has gone live today. The
articles were written up and copied from Harbinger's Offline Help
Manual since last year. Some pages (for example the Pattern Editor
page) still need some work,
so if you want to contribute, you are invited to write help text for
this page or copy more text from the Offline Help Manual.
The Wiki pages have been written with the upcoming OpenMPT 1.20 in mind
since OpenMPT 1.20 will come with a manual generated from those pages,
so some of them contain information that is not applicable to OpenMPT 1.19.
We have now put online a page with OpenMPT
Resources. It contains some information
about tracker file formats (which is yet to be extended) and other
interesting reads, not only for tracker developers but module music
enthusiasts in general - like The MOD
FAQ and the TraxWeekly
newsletter archive. Have
fun!
The latest version of OpenMPT has been released today. I
decided to backport some important bug fixes from the code of the
upcoming OpenMPT 1.20 to the OpenMPT 1.19 branch so that they are
available for all users. Like the previous minor update, this build does
not bring any new features, but focuses on some important bug fixes:
We are in the middle of setting up a new English OpenMPT Wiki. It will
serve as a new knowledge base and form a basis for the new offline help
documents that will eventually be included in the OpenMPT download
package. Setting up a wiki is one thing, writing content is another.
Luckily, the content has already been written - it's just in the wrong
place. That's why we are asking for you help:
We need people that can help us proof-reading articles from the
existing help
document and transfer
them to our new wiki. Are you interested? Read on
