I had this 99% done for a few months, but was getting a bug with the nesasm3 version. Turns out that copy pasting from asm6 code to nesasm3 is dangerous. Had to do a byte by byte comparison of the output.

This little guy. lda (FT_TEMP_PTR),y
turns into lda FT_TEMP_PTR,y
and needed to be lda [FT_TEMP_PTR],y

Anyway.
Added effects 1xx,2xx,4xx. Vibrato speed is permanently set to 8. Vibrato depth is limited from 0-A. Only 1 fx column per channel. You can do 1xx(2xx) and 4xx on the same note, but the fx must be on different lines in the famitracker file.
(as with my version 3.2, also has volume column and all notes supported)

Let me know if there are any bugs.

(note)
This music engine was used in Flappy Jack (fx really only noticable on the end song ... well you can hear vibrato on the title song too), and an unfinished project that I shelved, and will be used on the upcoming Full Quiet.

I'm getting interested in this version of famitone

What I would like to know is, how do I figure out if a song is compatible or not and how do I convert it for this engine? I have some old songs that are not made by me but doesn't work with the current version. I didn't have time yet to analyze which effect are missing but will do once required.

Now that this engine exist, I may be inclined to start checking earlier for research purpose.

From famitracker, do a text export. Then drop that in the same folder as text2vol4.exe. From the command line, type "text2vol4 [filename of text]". It will give an error message, if unsupported fx are used.

Requires a famitracker file. It will not process any other kind (like nsf).

Thanks for doing this, dougeff. It looks like very useful. Also good to have a broader selection of drivers.
