Patch: BW/B2W2 Music Patch for all versions! (Gen 3)

-Adjust some songs in the songtables (again)
-New Acoustic Guitar samples
-New Accordion samples
-Amplified B2W2 Electric Guitar samples
-Removed some unused HGSS sample data left over from HGSS music patch
-Relocated multi-sample data (will be used in future update)
-Relocated some voicegroups to give way for free space (will be useful for future update)
-More minor fixes I haven't mentioned

-I also made UPS patches for more convenient patching! (use NUPS patcher)
If you are applying this to an already hacked ROM, I recommend to use the manual patching method instead of the UPS patches.

Download v1.4

hey, never used custom music before but i got this set up pretty easily.

any advice on how to actual use the songs? like playing a specific song for a specific battle? using hopeless trainer editor for this

i did the manual patching method, so i'm not sure if songs were actually replaced or just space was made to add them. using the UPS method it just seems like all of the songs were replaced with the appropriate one from bw2

I use XSE scripts to do this because it is the easiest way. There are better ways to do it with ASM, like Jambo51's tutorial, but I haven't tried it yet.

This is what I use for wild battles and this one for trainer battles.

That's weird.. Both versions should work fine, even in hacked versions. I've also tested UPS (using NUPS patcher, NOT tsukuyomi) and manual patching and got no issues.

Does anyone have a list of this for it to show up in A-Map or know how to go about that?

To use the custom music in A-Map, get the decimal song number of the song in the full song list, convert it to hex, and put the converted music no. to the header of the map.
I think you also can use it on other utilities and tools if it supports it.

Hello, I'm trying to rip the rom patches music to midi via gbamusriper, but the soundfont for the midis is not written correctly. Do you know the voicegroup offset i need to make a correct rip?

I also tried and gave me an error... I don't really know what's wrong. For voicegroup offsets, as far as I remember, some are listed in one of the txt files or the spreadsheet of the source files.
