Messages / Sprites? #28

Is it possible to use custom messages and sprites in MilkDrop3? It was mentioned in earlier issues requesting displaying song titles an lyrics, but I'm just interested in things like messages in the msg.ini file. I see lots of the code is there, but it's not clear if it's being used, or is just cruft left over from MilkDrop2.

My BeatDrop has it! Also sprite parser are fixed and ready to use. Please wait for the v1.3 release!

About Milkdrop3: I put the milk3_msg.ini and it completely reads by typing some digits. I pressed 'K' and it doesn't enter to sprite mode. That's basically removed.

Thanks! I had tested it, but realized that I left the file as Milk2_msg.ini. After changing the filename to Milk3_msg.ini it worked as expected.

Yes the file need to be named milk3_msg.ini The sprites don't work well on BeatDrop / MilkDrop3. I'm planning on completely re-write that part next year.

I only tested messages briefly. It worked most of the time when I typed a 2 digit number, but not always. If I have the time I'll try to figure out what might be happening when it doesn't. With MilkDrop2 I used to set the time to display a random message every so many minutes. That feature appears to be missing, which makes it not really useful. At least not during parties. That would be cool to see added back when you do the rewrite.
