I need a favour

Okay, so I finished another composition that could potentially be used for the DKC4 fan game project. The problem is that while I was exporting the song, my computer did this thing where it restarts without even asking first. I did save a project file (for once), however, I don't use the full version of FL studio, and thus cannot open the project file until I feel like shelling out like a lot of money to buy the full version. I was wondering if there was anyone who had the full version of FL studio, as well as the full version FL soundfont player and the DKC trilogy soundfonts from here, who would be willing to take the project file, and export it for me.

Unfortunately, I don't have fl studios, but this might help, if this is the problem you're having:

Sorry I don't have fl studios, but hopefully this can help you out a little bit if this is the problem.

I think I have everything needed to help — so feel free to PM or email it my way and I'll do what I can to help out.
I knew I bought FL Studio for a reason.

Qyzbud I sent you a pm, but It's trapped in my outbox, I guess? So I'm thinking that means it didn't go through.

A PM doesn't leave your outbox until the recipient has viewed it.

I did not know this. Thanks for that tidbit...
That's weird how that works, I'm used to something being trapped in an outbox while it's trying to be sent, then once it's sent, it's no longer present in an outbox.

It is a bit of a strange way to handle things, I agree. I'm not sure how common it is across forum software, but maybe there's some logic to it due to the internally-handled nature of forum messaging vs email? Not sure.
At any rate, I've received your PM(s), and will see what I can do when I'm back at my PC (soon).

When a PM is sent to a user, phpBB adds an "unread" flag to the sent message. This is called a receipt. The receipt stays in the Outbox until the user reads it. Once it's opened, it disappears from your outbox. This is pretty much common practice in art sites like DeviantArt, but instead of a separate folder tracking read notes (their version of PMs), the note icon is highlighted in yellow. If the user reads it, the icon dims to a shade of grey.
I recall certain webmail programs using this feature, but it's been a long time since I've seen it in action. For me, personally, this is a good way to keep track if your note was "read," not sent.
