    ROM Hack Modding Dark Souls - An Investigation

    I've never released it on nexus, but I think it's fixed in the version I put up here.

    ROM Hack Modding Dark Souls - An Investigation

    I've been working on making some of the mod tools compatible, so it's doable in theory. The mods would have to be ported specifically to Switch of course. But depending on how much the mod changes, you'd either have to distribute almost the entire game with it (which can't really be legal...

    Pretty sure that sound was actually still there, just super muffled

    Thanks for the info! Turns out a sample was missing. I've added it and uploaded a new version to the Nexus.

    So it turns out my files were twice the size of the original ones due to encoding. The game always seemed to have a memory limit on sounds and I just went way over it. Picked a different format and adjusted the quality to match the right size and now everything works fine :D I've uploaded the...

    ROM Hack Modding Dark Souls - An Investigation

    So there are good news and bad news. The good news is the banks are all ready. The bad news is that some of them don't work together. Whenever I put in both the bank that contains the level music and the bank with most of the general purpose sounds in place (the former is quite big, the latter...

    Yeah, if someone wants to help with the rest of the sound files, I usually hang out in the #modding section of the speedsouls discord. You just need access to the sound files of the PC version.

    Managed to rearrange all the tracks in a bank now. Works fine. All that's left is basically the grind to change all the banks I'm using layeredfs currently. I think this "just works" with carts? Idk if there are other ways

    ROM Hack Modding Dark Souls - An Investigation

    After fiddling around with the bank files for a bit, I've managed to successfully implant a new FSB5 (with 44.1kHz instead of the previous 16kHz in this case). The tracks play fine, but the problem is that the order is completely jumbled :^) I've fixed it for one track by hand, but that's not...

    ROM Hack Modding Dark Souls - An Investigation

    I've updated it now. Should work, but I can't really test it myself. If you've already extracted the BHD5 with the older version, you need to extract it again before rebuilding. If you've already rebuilt the BHD5, you need to overwrite the BHD5 and BDT with their respective .bak files. In...

    It's a different FSB format too (FSB4 vs FSB3), so I don't think that would work :P I think freezing is normal, since it's taking a while (that's just the way it was originally programmed *cough*), but I don't think I've updated rebuilding those files for Switch yet, so they wouldn't work...

    ROM Hack Modding Dark Souls - An Investigation

    The bank files are RIFF containers, so you would have to extract the .fsb files from those first. There is a tool to replace sounds in DS1's fsb files, but it doesn't work with these. The samples then are also stored in RIFF containers as raw audio. They have some ADPCM encoding and I couldn't...
