Many thanks, so many new formats!

Very nice! the scope works in multimonitor support as long as ALL modules that are played support it. Once a module that doesn't support the scope is loaded the next module that supports it does not enable it anymore.
So if you play modules in random order as soon as a module that doesn't support visualization is played the scope stops working all together (until you click on the scope of course). |

Just for the interest. Is it possible to have a pattern scope for OctaMed modules?

are the eagleplayer plugins baked in as standard? or are we supposed to copy over something like the eagleplayer engines/eagleplayers folders for those features? also great stuff, love the updates, tho i was briefly in panic mode when i noticed my mods playing in slightly fast forward mode, thought it was due to using ahi output or something, turned out it was because of using vblank timing, unticked it and im back to normal, now stuff like bloodmoney-ingame.mod doesnt sound like its having an epileptic fit.
Nitpicking here as well but is there something being drawn on screen in text at the bottom/left of the window on launch? when i start HIP, i see some text overlaying the window which vanishes when i deselect the window then reselect it, as shown in my expertly circled picture below. |

Next bug?:
Here video showing this case: video - critical moment 0:40 - on/off playlist (RMB on PR) P.S. As you can see in video, I'm using XEN font (I don't like TOPAZ and I got rid of it), I hope that someday HiP will be font sensitive |

I wonder how you achieved this, hippo tries to only use fixed 8x8 fonts. |

I recall a patch somewhere, that allows you to use non proportional fonts as system/fixed width fonts, i recall having a nightmare with that as it trashes loads of stuff including HIP and Filemaster3. I just use a font called FIXED and it looks good enough for now, still "topazy'like" but not as terrible looking.
Also heres a vid showing something im not sure is even a bug, the scopes/etc all work fine, but when you switch to AHI mode, the scopes dont function at all until you disable AHI and reload a song using good old paula. [ Show youtube player ] |

Does that mean HIP deliberatly ignores the workbench font then? as in if we dont manually pick a new font then HIP just defaults itsself to topaz and doesnt even look at what workbench uses?

But as I noticed, there seems to be a problem as I can't change the font to another 8x8 font (other than topaz) even if I try. I was able to fix this, though |
