Changing map music in DPPt

[Spiky-Eared Pichu]

Hello to everyone! In this tutorial I will explain how to change the music that plays in a map, but not for GBA, for DPPt!. It's not difficult to do, but you need to know some values that I will post here. Here we go!

What you need:

• Project Pokemon Rom Editor
• A ROM of Pokémon Diamond, Pearl and Platinum (HGSS work, but I don't know the values for now)

1. Open your ROM with PPRE and click "Set ROM".

2.When ndstool finishes uncompressing it, click on "Maps".

3. You will see a window with a lot of buttons, like below. At the top, you can choose which map to edit (Twinleaf Town, Route 201, etc.)

4. When you have opened the map you want, now you need to change the value circled with red in the picture above. This value determines which music to play on that map.

5. Change the value to the one of the music you want:

1000 - Pal Park
1033 - Twinleaf Town
1034 - Sandgem Town
1037 - Route 225
1038 - Resort Area

6. Click on "Save changes".

7. Type the name you want for the modified ROM in the bottom textbox and click on "Write ROM". Don't forget to add .nds at the end of the name.

8. Open your ROM and test it!

I'll try and get the values for HeartGold and SoulSilver.

Edit: Apparently, they are not the same values here. They aren't in PPRE at all, in fact.
