A testdrive as promised. Here's TAD's first impression of HFSoundRestore - alpha 1

Disclaimer: your mileage may vary, this is just a snapshot and my view will probably change in due course as the app is still in development.

A fascinating idea as presented and the elaborate implementation made me ...

Very impressive stuff!
Can't wait to testdrive the tool. And it would be just great to be able to do batch file conversions too.

By the way, I dig that you 'start conversation' with us at the FS forum, but with that button in the GUI I assume you mean 'start conversion'.

Unfortunately, with FS 3.09 beta 2, the DLLExamplesV1.osm example from the Flowstone Guru site seems to 'randomly' crash due to the streaming/frames part (after I remove just that part from the schematic and perform a 'save as', then the other functions are just fine). This happens on both my Win7 ...

Here's an issue found in the display of single streams, which in some cases are being incorrectly represented on screen by double stream icons (see the red arrows):

well, you can't connect streams to double streams or vice versa. You'll have to use the converter primitives. And then your assembler code has to get updated as well to use instructions for double precission.
I know, but the point is that double variable declarations and double streams are not ...

Did not have sufficient time yet, but summarizing one of the first things I found:

While trying to convert some 'old' 32-bit stream code into 64-bit, changing a streamin into streamdoublein doesn't seem to work and the same for changing a streamout into streamdoubleout (please note that the links ...

YES, I want to emphasize that many long requested features are in this beta! Thanks Devs incl. MyCo
This makes me hopeful for the next big thing, which indeed should be 64-bit

MyCo for president!

Seriously, FWIW you have my endorsement to become part of a 64-bit FS development team!

More votes supporting this idea are welcome in order to trigger the FS Dev(s), people.

Wow, incredible stuff!
