Pretty cool, it should then be possible to make some very small demo/intro stuff with purebasic then. Is there a small mod player for purebasic or would you have to use something like bass or fmod?
There is no official small modplayer coming with purebasic. PureBasic itselfs uses MIDAS for
playing modules. But there exits of course ports for using other dll's like
fmod,
bass and so on.
AFAIK ... there exists some user libraries (which are linked statically to your exe) which can
be used for playing mod/xm files. I remember seeing/using libs like
miniFMod and/or
mxmsoundfor purebasic. Even a port of
farbrausch' lib2v sound system exists for older versions of
purebasic (I am not aware if there is a version for the actual pb version). All these could fairly
be used to create a 64kb intro in purebasic.
Nevertheless, I guess it wouldn't be small enough for 4kb intros. Like the
"normal" 4kb intros
written in C/ASM you need to squeeze a music player / format even more. So the usage of
normal mod/xm sounds wouldnt really fit into it. And that means that you should code a
soundsystem for yourself here ...
