There is a new version available: https://github.com/capehill/MilkyTrack ... es/tag/v1.04-rc1-amigaos4

@CapehillQuote:

Thank you very much, Milkytracker works very well here.

@Capehill

It looks pretty the new one, I will try it.

@Capehill

Thank you very much! I was just about to check if you had received my friendly request to port version 1.04 when I saw this thread
Really appreciated!

@trixie

I got your e-mail, sorry I forgot to reply. Anyway, I wanted to work on the port first before giving any promises :)

@Capehill

Thank you very much for the port!

@Capehill

Is there any possibility to reduce the icon of MilkyTracker ?

I would like to use it via AmiDock as a quick selection. But this icon is just way too big.

@Capehill

thanks !

@Maijestro

Look in the contribution folder that comes with MilkyTracker!

@khayozQuote:

That was too easy Thanks

@Capehill

Since I have already downloaded and installed their latest version of https://github.com/capehill/MilkyTracker I noticed that there is a MilkyTrackerX listed that looks very modern and has other useful features.

Is there a possibility to provide this tracker for AmigaOs4.1 as well or are the dependencies for it currently not fulfilled under AmigaOs4.1?

@Maijestro

We probably don't have CSound, SuperCollider etc. Maybe they are not mandatory.

MilkyTracker itself is quite simple to build using a cross-compiler and cmake, or even natively if you get cmake working.

MilkyTracker 1.05 is here.

(Valgrind tells me this program has some memory leaks and it uses uninitialized memory. I will check those later.)

@Capehill

Wow, I still consider Milky my favourite tracker, and this looks like a BIG release with a lot of great new features! I really like the new, more streamlined user interface - makes things more organized and easier to find. Watching the video I'd say that Protrekkr has just got a very serious contender!

So thanks very much for the port! Need to try it out ASAP and see how it works under OS4.

@Capehill

Thanks for your hard work!

@Capehill

1.05 gives me a DSI error when I try to load a song or a sample.

@Cageman

Happened to me too the first time I ran the program. Then I disabled the internal file browser in the Config, and no DSI occurred since.

@Capehill

The program now uses noticeably more resources, so I wonder if it still has a large-enough stack to avoid DSI errors? What's the size of your stack cookie? I know I could raise the stack in the program icon, but as I use the IconX trick to start Milky (in order to avoid displaying the obtrusive CLI window), I believe the stack size saved in the icon would raise the stack for IconX rather than for the tracker binary.

@trixie
You can increase the stack in your script if before the milkytrack command you run the stack command with the value you need.

@trixie

Stack cookie is 100000 bytes. Maybe you could try to bump it to 1000000 and check what is reported use at the exit? I found some big stack allocation earlier which I changed to heap, but I didn't realize this internal browser is a stack hog, too.

@walkero

Thank you, I didn't know that. Never been too much of an AmigaDOS expert

@Capehill

False alarm, the stack wasn't it. I tried increasing it to 500,000 but the DSI is still there when invoking the internal browser. If you make a debug version, I could send you a crashlog. But I believe you'll be able to reproduce the crash yourself on your OS4 system. It generally takes place after you load a song and then try to load a sample or instrument clicking on the respective LOAD button.
