I wasn't aware GitHub had a wiki. Now that I think about it, it was kind of obvious. I've browsed GitHub wikis before. Shows how much I pay attention.

EDIT: GitHub limits download bandwidth, so it's not a good site for hosting binaries. There's the possibility of also using Google Code or other alternatives as a supplement to GitHub. Nothing's written in stone.

You could use Dropbox's public folder to host binaries & a web page (using a free domain name like .co.cc to mask the true URL). That way, you won't really have to worry about FTP accounts, web admin scripts & other crap like that.

Preview 3 (and about time, too!)

Well, I'm about half a month late. Perhaps I should be going by Valve time, with the number 3 and all... (hopefully their Linux client comes out this year - I'm stoked!)

New to this preview is the actual ability to edit and save songs. The workflow is essentially the same as the Windows version, minus missing features like undo and select.
And of course, JACK support. Aside from a few xruns, it should run flawlessly. Hopefully it runs fine for the low latency JACK users (the lowest latency I can get is 85.3ms).
JACK users should run famitracker-play.sh or famitracker-qt.sh with the argument "-sound jack".

Sorry for double post, but i upgraded boost to 1.50 and now it compiles, but i got linker error (yay! :P)

The compilation error seems to be a problem with C++11 defining TIME_UTC as 1. It's a boost issue that is fixed in 1.50.
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1127280

The linker issue is a problem with boost 1.50 and threads wanting to link to boost_system.

Try running this in the famitracker/src directory and recompiling:
sed -i 's/REQUIRED thread/REQUIRED thread system/g' $(find . -name CMakeLists.txt)

I don't have boost 1.50 to test this on, but I think it should work.

Your magic command did not really work, but i added "system" manually in several CMakeLists.txt and it works!

I experienced those "semi-rare crashes", and sometimes program just freezes and does not respond to anything(it happened to me twice). I also find that bug with disappearing panel really annoying :P

Instrument editor works almost like the original one(however it lacks this "drawing line with right mouse button" feature, and i used that one very often).

Anyway, great job! Im looking forward to next preview!
To celebrate the occasion, i attached FTM made entirely in this Famitracker version!

Cool! My magic is a little rusty, but that's the idea.
I don't want to add boost_system for versions under 1.50 because it's a useless dependency. I might do a version check for the next update.

Well, shit. I thought I squashed all those stupid threading issues.

To anyone getting freezing or crashing and wants to help:
Build a debug version. Either redo the compile instructions with -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug, or reconfigure your existing famitracker-bin with "cmake . -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug"

In the famitracker-bin directory, run "LD_LIBRARY_PATH=./src/sound/ gdb ./src/qt-gui/famitracker-qt". Type "run" to start the program.
Ctrl+C whenever the program freezes. Enter "thread apply all bt". Post the results.

(the LD_LIBRARY_PATH nonsense is to load the sound modules. otherwise the program won't start)

If you have an IDE that recognizes cmake (like Qt Creator), that works too. It just needs to be configured with LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

PJ wrote:

That should really be dealt with. It's pissing me off, too.
I did a little investigation; it's a Qt bug that makes the visibilityChanged(bool) signal inconsistent with isVisible().
For now, comment out line 40 of qt-gui/MainWindow.cpp.

The sequence editor is done, apart from three things: Arpeggio scrolling, DPCM import/previewing/editing, and line drawing. I'll get them working next time around.
EDIT: Four things, including the graphical keyboard.

Great job so far, looking nice!

It would be great, though, to have all of the keystrokes. I hardly ever use the mouse in Famitracker. :/

I dont know if it counts as freezing, but suddenly I was unable to make any sound with the program, and also "Play" did not really play(no sound and cursor was in place, too).

Thanks to the stack trace PJ provided (thanks, PJ!), I identified the cause of the sound engine freezing. In Layman's terms (sort of), two threads (the ALSA engine thread and the gui thread pool) were waiting on the other to complete, and therefore never would. This is known as a deadlock, and is one of the many ugly faces of threads programming.
Also fixed was an unrelated locking bug in the DPCM editor.

The source and binaries have been updated.

EDIT (8/06/12): The fix I issued also introduced a regression that appears similar but not the same, and is now fixed. Because this comes from the current work tree, it also comes with more features in the again-updated version:
- Changing the effect column count
- Playing the current row (Ctrl+Return), and playing from the current row (Alt+Return). The latter is a feature I've always wanted to see in FamiTracker.
- Note notation in the noise channel is corrected

Oh, you mean F6? (Or F7; I can't remember offhand which is "loop this pattern" and which is "play from the current row".)
