is there a way to do this if you have windows 2000 because neither sappy 2005 or 2006 are compatible with windows 2000

Every time I "assemble that ugly thing" and I set the proper voice offset, when I try to play in Sappy the program closes. What's going on? Oh and I'm using your GSC remixes that you posted somewhere as a test... So I highly doubt it's the MID files.

lol think my own hacking days might be over. Suddenly as if out of nowhere the assemble button has just stopped working and I can't figure out why. Just crashes. I have all the VB files and still get a crash.

I had to download some .ocx and .dll files, one of them was vbalcbex6.ocx.
After that, when i try to replace things etc, Sappy just closes.
Can someone help me?

Bad timing, isn't it? Just when Zel needs your help...

I encountered the same thing here, and I ended up to my last resort - reformatting the computer. I hope you can push through...

It happened to me when I opened one of my songs with notepad. Every time I tried assembling it crashed. I tried re-installing but it still failed. So I did a system restore. (Control Panel - System Restore - Restore your computer to an earlier time). I went back like 2 days and it Sappy started working again.

ok this is weird for me. Sappy use to work for me 2 months ago and assembled songs nicely. Now when I do it I get "run time error 53 file not found". I tried re-installing sappy like 10 times and I'm using vista.

yeah lol far as assembling goes I can't give advice on that as Sappy only crashes for me.

Do you think you could give a link to the tools in .zip format, Magnius?

My computer can't download WinRAR, so I can't use .rar tools. >_<

Thanks much, this is a really good guide, cleared up a lot of problems for me. I had a bit of trouble getting Sappy to work, since the author has taken it off of his site I had to find the install file myself, because the one you had supplied wasn't working for me.

Ok I have an odd problem. Sappy works fine. It inserts music and plays it. But it plays it with no sound. 2 Days ago I made an unusual Discovery! I played a song I inserted into Emerald for kicks then hit play. I accidentally left it on playing since it wasnt playing any sound. Heres where it gets really odd...I go to Windows Media Player and Play a Midi on it. Then suddenly I hear Sappy Playing the midi i inserted with sound but also with WMP playing another Midi at the same time! Now when I hit stop on the midi on WMP the sound on sappy goes away? My question is:

How can you bring back the sound on Sappy without playing a midi on WMP at the same time?

Ps: my computer is Windows XP.
