 |  Re: Native Plus/4 TED-tune player ?
Eh, as we've written several times, the lack of a standard format for TED tunes which may able us to manage every possible variable for a TED tune forces us to release exomized playable files to run in an emulator (or real iron), coupled with a mirror folder containing the 'naked' music files.
HVTC nowadays considers all the TED tunes non written in BASIC, and significant native digi tunes only. There's a very wide range of cases in which those tunes are played, especially from older games: some are not played into a specific interrupt at a speed given by how much time the gameplay's code would take; some others needs unconstant interrupt calls; some play sfx by continuing certain variables one a key is pressed... The ways they play are so many, and I try to keep the sound as close as possible to what you've originally heard while playing the games 
Wherever a SID file, is a 'naked' code with some variables at the beginning to be read from a player, atm our files are actual programs to be run alone.
