Hello everyone. Mew3 Inc. is back. Well... kinda.
Okay, let's begin with the tutorial. I'm not sure if anyone has posted a tutorial like this before, I didn't find anything so here goes.
Things you will need:
-Your MIDI
-Cakewalk Pro Audio 9 (Old program, works like a charm in Windows 7 64 Bit too)
I'll explain in details later, but what we're basically going to do is open the MIDI you want to loop in Cakewalk. You will have to make 2 right clicks and you've looped the whole thing in 5 seconds. How?
We will insert 2 markers on the MIDI, One where you want the loop to begin and one where you want it to end. We're going to insert a marker where we want the loop to begin and name it with a left [ square bracket and insert a second marker at the end of the loop. We'll name the second marker with a right ] square bracket.
That's it. You put between square brackets [ ] what you want to loop.
Here's the whole process:
Side note: If you're looking for a Sappy that actually works in Win7 64 Bit, get Sappy 2006 mod 17.1 - works like a charm. It's in french though, but who cares... you can open an english version of Sappy that crashes just to take a peak at what the menus say. ;)
I recommend Magnius Guide to Pokemon Music Hacking. Another thing I recommend is that each time you're going to export tracks within Sappy, use $T. Another important thing I'll also recommend is always insert your new song somewhere with a lot of free space. You lower your chances of screwing up your ROM that way. If you're new song is light you can probably insert it over the original... but you can unknowingly override one or two extra bytes and I can guarantee you in a 90% that you'll have problems with your ROM at some point. (You wouldnt want to realize you had screwed up your ROM when you inserted a track MONTHS ago, just when you're nearly completing the hack, DO YOU? xD xD). I'm exaggerating a bit, but it is true that you can screw up things badly, making the ROM crash the second music starts playing. And Sappy? Forget it, it'll crash upon playing any random track.
