I'm having trouble with some vst's. If i make a song with a few plugins, let's say Z3ta, and i load the song again it says he can't find it. This gets anoying if you load 3 z3ta's with manual parameters... I have to set them all over again. help...... me.....

Maybe the VSTs are not located in MadTracker`s VST folder but somewhere else like C:\programs\name_of_program..., as you are using these plugins also in other programs. MadTracker only scans in its own folder. You CAN use VSTs located somewhere else on the hard disc, but on a new start of MT you will be asked for the source (and will be forced to set the parameters again).

Not entirely true. Go into the config (Ctrl+f), then under plugins you can set up to three folders that MT should scan for VST's. I recommend putting all your VST's in one place. That way MT can find them easily and you have everything centralized.
