@UnsignedArduino I’m making a hollow knight game. I would love it if you could please please please make this song using the Midi Extension? Please??? [Link](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AQ71AUNdjL0&ab_channel=MrLocus) ---

That’s a really long song. I don’t know if the midi extension can withstand that. it would have to generate an absolutely massive image! And that means a LOT of lag. ---

The song is looped 5 times. its roughly around 2:17 seconds each loop. ---

@UnsignedArduino The link you have attached does not work, but I’m sure you already knew this. If you can’t fix the link anytime soon, could you show me how to run the python script you attached? Thanks. ---

I recommend you try out this tool instead: > **[GitHub - UnsignedArduino/MIDI-to-MakeCode-Arcade: A Python tool to convert a MIDI file to a MakeCode...](https://github.com/UnsignedArduino/MIDI-to-MakeCode-Arcade)** > > A Python tool to convert a MIDI file to a MakeCode Arcade song! It has instructions in the README to generate the MakeCode Arcade `hex` bytes. ---

what do you do after it gives you the .ts file? I opened it in a notepad but am unsure what to do now ---

There should be a bunch of images you can copy and paste into an animation block to pass into the extension. ---

The images in the animation should not be one pixel tall. Try copying it exactly without removing any whitespace. ---

Oh that is not for the ArcadeMIDI extension, that script converts it directly into MakeCode Arcade songs so you should copy that hex into the code below: ```js // replace the hex`` below with yours music.play(music.createSong(hex`00780004080200`), music.PlaybackMode.UntilDone) ``` ---
