Samples cannot be implemented due to the fact that Furnace cannot handle the possible amount of samples + FM instruments. VGM Music Maker has 256 FM instruments and 255 samples, and plays those samples using a special effect in FM 6 (while Furnace requires you to make a sample instrument for each sample, taking up space in the instrument list). In the case of a VGE file having more than (for example) 127 FM instruments and 127 sample instruments, it would cause the instrument list to overflow

is it alive?

PR blocked because I don't know how to handle 1) Calculating PSG envelope from FM ADSR 2) If there are a combined more samples and FM instruments than the 256 instruments that Furnace can support

1. Calculating PSG envelope from FM ADSR

Doesn't Furnace support ADSR-format envelopes for PSG natively now? Or is it difficult to convert from VGM Music Maker's PSG ADSR envelope format to Furnace's?

2. If there are a combined more samples and FM instruments than the 256 instruments that Furnace can support

Why not just have a tighter limit on instruments than VGM MM has? I think it's not too likely for a VGM Music Maker song to use over 127 instruments or 127 samples anyway. I would be happy if it was just limited to 127 instruments and 127 samples or even just 64-ish instruments with 64-ish sampled instruments as long as I can import songs from VGM Music Maker at all.

Though I am not familiar with Tilde's standards, so I don't know if he would want to be all-or-nothing when it comes to support for VGM MM modules.

Furnace's ADSR is a bit messy. I can't figure out how to make the envelope stay indefinitely within the sustain phase as long as the note is being held (because when it goes over SusTime, it'll automatically decay)
Also no second decay unlike the VGMMM ADSR

Well, that could work.

SusTime and SusDecay of 0 will sustain it

Also no second decay unlike the VGMMM ADSR

SusDecay?

I'll get back to working on this soon. Thanks
