@Pablomf6 , I have a question, possibly you can at least point some tips... I was trying to replace Rainbow Road 7's music with the Rainbow Road Medley from Smash Bros 3DS.

I started the conversion from a MP3 file, then lowered the sample rate to 32000Hz, set the loop points through Yata+ and generate the two bcstm files (one for the main 2 segments, and a more faster, with high tempo, to the final part). Replaced both inside the decompressed romfs with the appropriated filenames, and repacked the romfs.

When I started playing, after three or four seconds, the music disappeared, and a few seconds later the game froze, forcing me to power down the 3DS.

What I need to do for replacing the music files without this crash error? Thanks in advance for any answers.

There's a tool called BRSTM to BCSTM, which converts the wiis sound files to the BCSTM files compatible with the 3DS. That could be useful for some people here. ;)

In the end, I made a change: replaced the track files for the SNES Rainbow Road instead of MK7 Rainbow Road, and my two edited bcstm files worked without problems (but I should have raised the volume a little more...).
Thanks for your tips, I'll check brawlcustommusic later to see if I can change other tracks :)

Fantastic one, wow! Can't wait to rebuild my romfs too :D

@Pablomf6 - about this specific track, isn't possible to play online with random people, since the game crashes (although is possible in other tracks).

But I wonder: playing online only with people that have the CTGP-7 tracks too (let's say, in a private community just for CTGP-7 players), also crashes the game?

is there a place where custom tracks are posted besides the official ctgp-7? I've seen sky garden but never got to play it.

You can download GBA Sky Garden here, but:

1) It's incomplete at the moment, since lacks item boxes
2) It replaces SNES Mario Circuit 2 - and this one is replaced already by SNES Mario Circuit 1 on CTGP-7. Which means, you have to choose which track you want.

For some ubknown reaon, N64 frappe snowland is the only working online. Stewie1.0 has a video proving it on his channel.

Obviously it has something to do with loading model data, and not texture data. Also, was playing ds download play and i de-synched. That might have something to do it. That or my hans overclock.

    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.

    never had that i don't think
