| Summary | 0001707: "loop song" feature displayed as not supported for .it | ||||
| Description | I have some .it music files that have an intro and then loop. In OpenMPT the "Loop Song" box is checked but the restart pattern is greyed out and shows zero. Hovering over it shows that "feature is not available in IT format". Yet when playing the song it actually loops correctly, including skipping the intro. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | Example file: Haunted.it (from Jazz Jackrabbit 2: The Secret Files) The song loops from pattern 2, which is the 4th one from the beginning. However this is not reflected in the UI. | ||||

The two things are unrelated.
|
|
|
And if you want to loop a song from a specific position (like in Haunted.it), you need to put a Bxx effect in the pattern to jump to that position when reaching the end of the song. |
 |
In that case where does the info that the loop should not start from the beginning but some pattern down the line come from? |
|
|
As I said, you need to put a Bxx effect in the pattern data. Have a look at the last row of pattern 14 in Haunted.it. |
