Latest version of 64th Note doesn't work. by Sonmari at 3:05 PM EST on January 13, 2006
I saw an earlier thread addressing this, but the poster's problem seemed a bit different from mine.
A few days ago, I downloaded 64th Note v 1.0 FINAL (Winamp plugin). I tried to play some miniusf files from Mario Party 3 (and later F-Zero X), but they did not work. When I saw an earlier suggestion to turn on error display, I did that and this is the message I got:
Failed to open file: (file location) error reading USF
I tried reinstalling Winamp (v. 5.111) and later got the latest version (v. 5.12), but I still get the same error message. All of my input plugins are the one's I chose to install with Winamp except for these four. They are:
a) Meridian GBS player v 0.2 (x86) b) GYM file player 0.1.6.4 (x86) c) Alpha II SPC Player v 3.2 (x86) d) Highly Advanced 0.11 (x86)
I checked the archives for Mario Party 3 and F-Zero X and they nad neither viruses nor archive errors. Is there a way to fix this, or will I have to just go back to the last version of 64th note?
This is a strange error, hopefully we can resolve it. Was the file it failed to open the .usflib or the .miniusf? If you reinstall the old version of 64th Note does it work again? Have you tried v1.1 beta 4?

I had this exact same problem, which embarrassed me to no end when I found out what was wrong. I keep my Winamp installed to the Tools folder, and this will automatically make a winamp folder in program files if you let it install to the default position. I wasn't paying too much attention, but I don't think it's an error with the latest version.
That actually is an issue with the latest version, older versions of the installer checked if you actually had winamp in the given directory, but I removed that check because people who wanted to install without winamp were having trouble.
It's been awhile, but I tried using the beta version of 64th Note, but I encountered the same error. The file that fails to open is a .miniusf with the title "F-Zero X: Dream Chaser".
Also, how do you install Winamp to the default position? Does that mean I have to put the plugin in the main Winamp folder, not the Winamp plugins folder?
I tried the older versions in that link and I either got the same error message or another one saying "Failed to Allocate Memory" or something like that.
Is it still possible to get the last working version of 64th note?
