It would be better if files (samples, presets, soundfonts, etc) were looked for in the project directory first, and if not found then in the usual place (like /usr/share/lmms/samples). This would allow us to package our LMMS projects and use them on another machine or send them to another person.
For this to be feasible, the full path of the files should not be stored if that file is detected to reside in the same directory as the *.mmpz file. This again would mean that LMMS should ask for a filename right at project creation. Does this sound like a good idea? Currently, people have to go track by track and reload the samples/presets/etc of every track when I send them my project. I suppose the problem gets more severe when you send a project created in Linux to a Windows user; there not even the default shipped files can be found (/usr/share vs C:\Program Files). I could probably try to code this myself if you people think that would be a nice addition. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!
