Using Tracker Musics as BGM in Ren'Py, is it possible?

[YuudachiPoi1999]

I'm currently working on my visual novel titled 'Flower of the Winter', but kinda have a problem here.

I composing the baackground musics using OpenMPT (honestly, I'm sucks at FL Studio or DAW-based softwares, also I started to use tracker software since 2006). But I encounter difficulties when using the music in the Ren'Py.
First, Ren'Py seems doesn't support tracker formats like .s3m, .xm, .it, or even .mo3 (perhaps there is sort of plug-ins for this?) Because if using .ogg (streamed ones), I have to create two .ogg files (one for the intro part and for the looping part), which is hard to make the music loops properly (I need to find the exact spot where the music should looping).
Second, .ogg files uses more spaces rather than tracker files (especially the compressed format, .mo3). I just inserted 8 BGMs and they uses about +15 MB space, while my tracked format just 3 MB in one file (Impulse Tracker) an can contain multiple song tracks.

Perhaps there is a special plugin for Ren'Py to play tracked musics, and specify the starting position for few musics (as PopCap Games' Bejeweled 2 does, if you know)?

The only file formats supported are ogg, mp3 and wav.

You can't set a loop point but you can queue up the two music tracks so that the intro plays, then the looping music.

As for supporting tracker files, not likely to ever happen. Pytom has his hands full updating the engine, and saving 15MB of space is not really a top priority considering that most people have terabytes of hard drive space these days.

But if you really felt strongly about it, Renpy is open source, so if you know of someone who could implement it, you certainly can.

Ren'Py supported tracker music for its first few years, and nobody ever used it. They're formats that are - in practice - obsolete for new development.

I'll gonna feel guilty for few Android phone users (not tablets nor the OUYA console), since most of few low-end phones didn't have many spaces in internal memory (and most of Indonesian people stuck at low-end Android phones).

Probably modifying several plug-ins or source codes should help. If it does, I'll consider.

Probably you still have the 'forgotten tracker music' source code in your hard disk or somewhere? If you do, can I grab those code? It should be handy for me at least, if I can slightly modify the code!

I have it, but it wouldn't be very useful to you. It stopped working when Ren'Py added support for ffmpeg/libav.

Hm... Okay then... Looks like I should stuck on spliting the music that had looped twice from my beloved tracker music...
Thanks for the advice.
