'''xm2smps''' is a program created by nineko that converts songs 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 runs under MS-DOS, and it has been obsoleted by [[xm3smps]], which is an improved version for Microsoft Windows. Because of this, xm2smps won't be developed anymore.
 
 
 
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 Megamix'', as well as upcoming hacks such as ''Sonic the Hedgehog Remix'' and ''Sonic 2 Megamix''.
