Vanilla absolutely. Prboom+ plays back midi natively.
Chocolate Doom may enforce it, however.

Basically the test you have to do is "does MIDI2MUS convert it successfully y/n" and to run that test you need to run MIDI2MUS. I am not aware that MIDI2MUS' source code was ever released, so I do not believe it to be included in PrBoom+ or even Chocolate Doom. But I know it is included in vanilla Doom (from version 1.5 onward) so that's what I recommended.

Given that the MUS format is known and that several MUS2MIDI programs have been written, it's possible a non-official MIDI2MUS thing was created, but if any source port includes it it would be Chocolate Doom, not PrBoom+. Keep in mind that the MUS format is only needed natively by DMX's sound library, which is only used by vanilla Doom; every other port in existence need to convert MUS files to MIDI in order to play them, so it would be kinda pointless and stupid to convert MIDI->MUS->MIDI unless you want to make sure your port has a chance of failing to play back long or complex MIDIs.

Except it's not even 300 - it's a whole thousand.

Dollars to your currency. I know which, but I won't disclose where you live. Still, a bit more expensive than $300. :/

Well it's 992 dollars to be exact, but that's still full 690 bucks more than 300. :-)

It's also no secret that I live in Denmark.

Oh I thought you meant 3000 DKK. Alright.

Well.

That's blunt, but since you also spent lots of money on PC parts you must know what you're doing.

uh, is it a sign of senility if your dad wakes up and is temporarily confused over whose house he's currently in? i had to reassure him that he was back home, and tell him the current date and stuff. he's in the early 50s.

Has he done this in the past? Does he have some kind of illness or aanything?

Also, just noticed "Viscra Maelstrom" shows up in the forums email notification instead of "Princess Viscra Maelstrom".

Huh.

Got a brand new case, PSU, and liquid cooler. The case is a major upgrade in space alone, since I've gone from a mini ATX tower to a mid-tower. Lots of fans, too. PSU mounts at the bottom, with its fan to the outside instead of inside. (I got a 700W modular PSU with a NewEgg promo code, even.) The LC radiator I attached to one of the front fans, and the fan that came with the LC is now at the top of the case.

I have never run a computer this cool before. It's awesome. :D
