| − | '''xm2smps''' is a program created by [[Nineko]] that converts song from the XM (eXtended Module) format to the [[SMPS]] (Sample Music Playback System) format hence allowing hackers to easily put custom music in their hacks.

| − | It's not user-friendly by purpose, you must know what you're doing if you plan to use it. It currently works under MS-DOS; Nineko is a very lazy guy and keeps on procrastinating a Visual Basic version, which most likely will never arrive.

| − | Because of the limitations of the [[Sega Mega Drive/Genesis]], most of the effects used in XM files (such as Arpeggio) aren't convertible; that, and the fact that module files aren't very popular, gives a very few options to people who want to import a song with this converter. However, it has been used with success in a good amount of well-known hacks, including ''[[Sonic 1 Remastered]]'', ''[[Sonic 1 Megamix]]'', as well as upcoming hacks such as ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog Remix]]'' and ''[[Sonic 2 Megamix]]''.
