I am working on Mac platform although I have to do the smf->seq conversion on a PC since I don't have a mac tool for that. Yes, we have a PC also at home but who would prefer to work on that if there is a Mac available... But you are right, this converting problem is not platform dependant, is it? Is there any way to come around this problem? I am using Band In A Box and Cubase to create the MIDI files. These are well established known applications so there should not be anything wrong with the MIDI files they produce. Or could the problem come from the fact that I am doing the music on Mac platform? (I am writing these messages at work on a PC, that's why Windows-Netscape) Best Regards, Markku DEnnis Brinkhuis wrote: > Markku Kaurila wrote: > > > Hi, > > > > I tried to add music to my game.
