So, I was wondering how to convert mods to j2b files, to make custom boss music for example. I have seen these converters around... But can't now find any.
So, everything I want is a program that converts .it, .mod, .xm ECT to .j2b or tutoril how-to.
Thanks for your help!

UNLESS you are making custom boss music, the j2b format isn't particularly useful. This utility was made before jj2 was able to play other files than .j2b. Luckily, an early patch made it so .mod, .xm, .s3m, and .it worked just as well. In fact, official releases after that patch don't even use the j2b format, they use s3m.
Bascially, in most cases you are just wasting time by making a j2b file.

It isn't pointless, J2B files take up less disk space than MOD files.

PJ7, I'm pretty sure making a mod file smaller to work in JJ2/fit on J2O is not most cases.

Interesting fact Mike. Didn't know that.
However, .j2b files are still useful if your music file is over like, a meg and a half and makes Jazz crash. But that's about the only other instance I'd consider making a .j2b

In most cases, people are looking to save hard drive space, though.

J2O's disk space meter loves .j2b

Yeah, but when I was using Boss music, I had a j2b file of over 250KB and when I went past the "Active Boss" event, it came up with the "Amnesia" error.
