DefleMask 7 Released!, the main new is the Linux Build!, if you are a Linux user and do not want to use Wine for this Battle, you should Download the Linux Build of DefleMask 7!.
I installed lib32-libxt, lib32-libxtst, lib32-libgl, lib32-glew, and lib32-sdl. DefleMask seems to launch okay now, but then crashes immediately without an error message, so I'm not really sure what to tell you :)

Haha, yesssss. Linux release.
Although, I noticed a pretty major issue -- I don't have numpad keys on my Linux laptop, so I can't change octaves... -_-
[EDIT]
Also, using ctrl-F2 to change note clamps at C-4 for some reason, even though higher notes are supported.

Mates!, DefleMask is going better and more compatible!, I updated it and now it works in all Linux distributions without those sound problems that some users suffered!.
NEWS:
01: Fixed incompatibility issues with the sound in some Linux's Distributions.
02: Fixed a frequency calculation error in the noise channel of the Game Boy (both Windows and Linux builds).
03: Removed SDL.dll from the Linux Build, it was in the package due to a mistake.

I have a new 16:9 monitor, and I left the full size of my screen as the default resolution value in the config.ini for the resolution. xD
This is a mistake, and I fixed it, now DefleMask starts with a normal and small window. :)
If you are suffering this type of resolution problems, you have to only open the config.ini file and change the window_width and window_height parameters as you like (also DefleMask will save your latest window size in the config.ini for the next time). However, I re-uploaded DefleMask with a standard window size to avoid resolution problems. Thanks.
hey delek, it would be great if deflemask was open source, especially considering that deflemask is not too configurable (in behaviors/keybindings). the idea of a multi-system tracker with built-in chip emulation is great but i can't use the interface.
i wrote this python script so i could track in OpenMPT using a comfortable interface and just adjust a few instruments in deflemask. this may be useful to others, although you will likely need to adjust the code yourself. example song included.

It would be great if Windows was Open Source too. :P
While I can continue coding DefleMask it will be Closed Source, I will release it as Open Source if, for some reason, I'm not able to continue coding it. Btw, custom shortcuts will be added soon.
EDIT: So you reverse engineered the DMF format?. Decompressing/uncompressing it with zlib is not safe, DefleMask uses another compression algorithm.
Also, I think that your track should not be considered in the DefleMask Battle, because you used OpenMPT and only converted the module to DMF. The idea of the battle is to use DefleMask only by selecting the System supported.
hey i am running windows xp pro and every time i try to run deflemask it wont open and i get this error in the .log
Impossible to create the Window. CODE: 0xF4E7372F
i tried to adjust the screen size and fullscreen to 1 or 0 in teh config file and i keep getting the same error? i would like to participate in this compo
That could be a problem of your video drivers or with OpenGL. Do you have the same issues with other OpenGL apps?. Download the latest OpenGL drivers too. Regards.
delek, yes i reversed it as much as i could - enough to produce a file it could load. just a couple days work. zlib seemed to work just fine with all files i tested. what is the difference in the algorithm? it would be nice if the DMF format was open for interoperability with other software even if the program itself is closed.
hey Delek, how on earth are you meant to access the wavetable instruments that don't fit on the screen? I can't find any method of scrolling through 'em...

OpenGL is not only 3D rendering!, and by the way it has better 2D performance than Allegro and SDL.
Also OGL runs in Android devices and in many others platforms. It is the best option out there for multi platforms soft.
I don't know why you can't run it, seems that it is a specific problem of your computer.
BTW:
DefleMask 7f released!, Game Boy ROM BUILDER FTWWWWW!!.
NEWS:
01: Game Boy ROM and GBS Exporter! (remember always to use an accurate Game Boy Emulator, such as Visual Boy Advance, or the actual Hardware!).
02: Custom Keyboard Layouts added and keys editor!.
03: Fixed a bug regarding to the Note Up shortcut, it was limited to octave 3.
04: Fixed a bug introduced in the latest release, regarding to loading a premade instrument.
05: Fixed a bug in the GENESIS Rom Builder, it was disabled in the previous release.
06: Manual Updated.
That's because the emulator that you are using for GBS playback is not compatible with the way that DefleMask is writing the volume changes.
However, I'm working right now in a more standard way to change the volumes. I will release a hot fix in a few hours with more compatible GB and GBS exporting.
