Pretty Confusing, but thanks!

Hi! I was wondering if someone could send me the Tahaxan Runtimes, (tahaxan was mentioned earlier in the thread) because when I download them from the official site the file is always corrupted.

The ds music is documented and there are tools to convert wav files and such into bins, mostly used for homebrews though, so I'm not sure what the big deal is :\. Also SR, you even know how music works in the gba or ds? Or what the notes, tunes, operaters, and everything else's hex values are? Do you know the I\O sound channels? They're very diffrent in gba and ds, you shouldn't be claiming things you know nothing about.

He only said he was pretty sure, he never claimed to know how it worked on the ds.

He never claimed, but propply only got the idea through gameplay...

 

[GBChacker]

If your saying your pretty sure your making a claim. Son Sobbe is probably right, that he got the idea from gameplay.

Hey guys, I disappeard for a few months and I was wondering if y'all could update me because reading 47 pages would most likely reduce me to tears.

I was very common around here a few months ago, I was doing spriting for Antwhan and itman, I was a almost daily contributor to several hack topics including Nautical Requiem and Piratite and I'm pretty sure that I was stalking you're Mystery Dungeon hacking thread for a week because I wanted to hack MD so much. And you must be joking if you think I have the time and patience to read that many pages.

Question, having been very interested in the GBA music scene, has anyone really looked into changing DP's music yet or is that still far off?

I don't think it's that hard to edit the music, as DP use the standard .sseq files..
And, as there's a sseq2mid and mid2sseq converter.. ;)
I never tried it, as I don't really care about the music..

No. If you want to know you can read the thread. If you don't want to read it then you can remain left uninformed, but we're not just going to tell everyone who posts here what's been done.

Well then, I might try to insert some remixes in there and do some research on DP Music Hacking. Maybe one day the dream of DP GSC will come true lol

This is going to take all of you wayyyyyyyyyy back, but I am in desperate need of assistance. I am having extreme difficulty with using poketex. I want to be able to change the sprite of my character (into saffron city gym leader sabrina would be ultimately amazing), but I am playing as a female and i want to be able to spice it up a bit. So could somebody please show me how to edit my character on pokemon diamond. An in depth tutorial would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!!!!

@Magnius: /data/data/sound/sound_data.sdat

I've read the entire thread but found no mention of editing the pokemon sprites. (Yes, I know PokeTEX does trainer sprites.) I posted in the simple questions thread about it and got ignored, so I'm gonna post here.

Through much trial and error I've gotten PokeDSPic to somewhat work. (I've also found that the palettes have to be manualy edited in the process and that Photoshop apparently can't index them correctly.) However it still screws up my sprite a bit.

I'd appreciate if someone could take a look and tell me how to fix this or at least that I'm doing nothing wrong. I have a feeling the problems may just be a result of bugs in the program; so maybe now that it's been open-sourced they can be fixed.

Anyway, here's a comparison (original is on the left):

Ah thanks, so once I extract it, will the converting programs be enough to extract and reinsert stuff into the "sdat" file? Just wondering.

 

[Poryhack]

Sorry, no idea. Guess you'll have to try it and find out. :P
