Hello everyone,

I have a quick (hopefully simple) question... How can I add/import my own background music and sfx into SMW?

I am currently using LunarMagic, but am not seeing any way of importing my own music/sfx (Just using existing ones.) I assume it is possible (I seen some hacks that do this). Also, the help files were not of much help (pun intended

)

Thanks for any help or suggestions

Lunar Magic itself doesn't bother with the music and sound effects at all beyond you being able to set which song number plays in a level... if you aren't scared of the command line and text documentation, there's addmusic (link is in Japanese, but I believe there was an English translation somewhere... look for it); also, this might be of interest.

There's also the SMB3/SMB1 music patches by DJ Bouche, which switch SMW to use the more compatible "later" version of the SMAS engine (commonly referred to as N-SPC). I am making a GUI tracker for those, but it's not released yet.

Thanks! I found the English version (and a couple more tools as well ^^)

I *think* I understand how to make it work, but I do have another question that Im a little confused about... How do I actually add my own custom tracks? Im thinking this is what the 11.txt through 39.txt files are for...If so, what format are they in? How do I edit them?

Thanks for any help and suggestions!

	Just for clarification, tracks 11-18 are for the OW, and 20-3F (Hex) are for levels. There is an excellent tutorial about porting tracks from Midis/creating original tracks here. It sounds like you've got it working, so I won't explain that. ____________________

Any way you could post a direct link to the English version? I can't seem to find it, and I would like to use it as well.

	Just as a note, the english version of addmusic isn't updated to fix a glitch that causes Pow and star music to loop forever. (That is, last time I checked. ) To fix it manually after using addmusic, open your ROM in hex editor and search for the string "1A 09 20 8D FB 1D 9C DA 0D 6B" and change it to "1A 09 20 8D FB 1D 8D DA 0D 6B". ____________________
