2 questions:
1) About the Appendix 1 variables thing: I'm only just starting to look into programing, so i'm sorry if i don't understand much about variables, but while c++ int variables, is it possible that you could just put an if statment to see if the number is more then the max of int, then switch it over to a __int64 variable type if it is? (this would save time, and still have a much larger number, though i really don't see why you would need a larger number, unless it's a 'continues game score' kind of thing, at which point i'd still be shocked at the score being that high, but it's still a good idea)
2) o_0 i knew that mp3 wouldn't be supported, with the whole cost issue and all (i read that post), but i didn't know that midi wouldn't be supported, but i'm a bit confused on that. midi and wav are both microsoft codex (i think), so why is 1 supported and the other not? Or are nether supported?
