Mod/s3m/xm/it Music

Has anyone used tracker formats like MOD/S3M/XM/IT in Torque? If so, how did you do it? I'm looking closely at FMOD or BASS, but I'm not sure how well they could work with OpenAL. In fact, I don't know if my abilities would allow me to successfully use something like FMOD to integrate with OpenAL in T2D. Anyway, I just wanted to know if any of you have done it, or looked into it. I was always a big fan of these tracker formats, and they happen to work great to keep the size of a game down while keeping some nice audio quality.

Someone already did this using the "Dumb" library http://dumb.sourceforge.net/

FMOD would be an option too. It's not free but it's portable and may have better audio quality than Dumb.

This is wonderful news! Thank you. I wonder if DUMB supports tracker loop information... I was also looking into libmikmod...
