SCHG How-to

Expand the music index to start at $00 instead of $80 (Sonic 2 Clone Driver version)

From Sonic Retro

(Original guide by Mikel, based on a guide by HPZMan)

Notes:

  • Firstly, credit to HPZMan for the original guide he made for Sonic 1.
  • Secondly, you need to have the Sonic 2 Clone Driver in your hack. To get the Clone Driver, go to Reticon.pngthis topic; it requires the Sonic 1 Sound Driver to be ported to your Sonic 2 hack first.

First, go to "PlayMusic:"

You will see something like this: 

PlayMusic:
;	tst.b	($FFFFFFE0).w
;	bne.s	+
;	move.b	d0,($FFFFFFE0).w
	move.b	d0,($FFFFF00A).w
	rts
+
	move.b	d0,($FFFFF00A).w
	rts

Change it to: 

PlayMusic:
        cmpi.b #$7F, d0
        ble.s   ChkSounds00to7F
        jmp     NormalSoundRequest
ChkSounds00to7F:
        cmpi.b #$01, d0
        bge.s   LoadSlots00to7F
        jmp     NormalSoundRequest
LoadSlots00to7F:
        add.b   #$80, d0; Add $80 you get slot that starts in $81            
        move.b #$01, ($FFFFFFFC) .w; $FFFFFC moves $01 you you make sound to driver load secound index
NormalSoundRequest:
        move.b    d0, ($FFFFF00A) .w
        rts

Then, go to "PlaySound:".

You will see something like this: 

PlaySound:
	move.b	d0,($FFFFF00B).w
	rts

Change it to: 

PlaySound:
        cmpi.b #$7F, d0
        ble.s   ChkSounds00to7F_Special
        jmp     NormalSoundRequest_Special
ChkSounds00to7F_Special:
        cmpi.b #$01, d0
        bge.s   LoadSlots00to7F_Special
        jmp     NormalSoundRequest_Special
LoadSlots00to7F_Special:
        add.b   #$80, d0; Add $80 you get slot that starts in $81            
        move.b #$01, ($FFFFFFFC) .w; $FFFFFC moves $01 you you make sound to driver load secound index
NormalSoundRequest_Special:
        move.b    d0, ($FFFFF00B) .w
        rts

Then, go to "loc_7202C:"

You will see something like this: 

loc_7202C:
		jsr	sub_725CA(pc)
		movea.l	(off_719A0).l,a4
		subi.b	#$81,d7
		move.b	(a4,d7.w),$29(a6)
		movea.l	(Go_MusicIndex).l,a4

Change it to: 

loc_7202C:
        	jsr    sub_725CA (PC)
        	movea.l    (off_719A0) .l, a4
        	subi.b    #$81, d7
        	move.b    (a4, d7.w), $29 (a6)
        	movea.l    (Go_MusicIndex) .l, a4
        	cmpi.b #$01, ($FFFFFFFC) .w
        	bne.s   NormalIndexLoad
        	movea.l    (Go_MusicIndex_01to1F) .l, a4
NormalIndexLoad:
        	clr.w   ($FFFFFFFC) .w

Then, search for "Go_MusicIndex:"

You will see something like this: 

Go_MusicIndex:	dc.l MusicIndex		; XREF: Sound_81to9F

Add this below "Go_MusicIndex:": 

Go_MusicIndex_01to1F:	dc.l MusicIndex_01plus

Then, go to "MusicIndex:"

You will see something like this: 

MusicIndex:	dc.l Music81, Music82
		dc.l Music83, Music84
		dc.l Music85, Music86
		dc.l Music87, Music88
		dc.l Music89, Music8A
		dc.l Music8B, Music8C
		dc.l Music8D, Music8E
		dc.l Music8F, Music90
		dc.l Music91, Music92
		dc.l Music93, Music94
		dc.l Music95, Music96
		dc.l Music97, Music98
		dc.l Music99, Music9A
		dc.l Music9B, Music9C
		dc.l Music9D, Music9E
		dc.l Music9F

Then, add this below "MusicIndex:" 

MusicIndex_01plus:
         	dc.l Music01, Music02

The "dc.l Music01, Music02" is basically an example of what music slots you should use for Slots $01 to any number you want to stop at

Then, go to "Sound_ChkValue:"

You should see something like this: 

Sound_ChkValue:				; XREF: sub_71B4C
		moveq	#0,d7
		move.b	9(a6),d7
		beq.w	Sound_E4
		bpl.s	locret_71F8C
		move.b	#$80,9(a6)	; reset	music flag
		cmpi.b  #$E0,d7
		bge.s  Sound_E0plus
Sound_ChkValue_OtherChecks:
		cmpi.b  #$FF,d7
		bge.s Sound_E0toF8
		cmpi.b	#$9F,d7
		ble.w	Sound_81To9F	
		cmpi.b	#$F0,d7
		ble.w	Sound_A0ToCF
		cmpi.b	#$F9,d7
		bge.w	Sound_E0toE4

Change it to: 

Sound_ChkValue:            ; XREF: sub_71B4C
        	moveq    #0, d7
        	move.b    9 (a6), d7
      		beq.w    Sound_E4
       		bpl.s    locret_71F8C
        	move.b    #$80,9 (a6); reset    music flag
		cmpi.b  #$E0,d7
		bge.s  Sound_E0plus
        	cmpi.b #$01, ($FFFFFFFC) .w
        	bne.s   Load81to9F
        	jmp     Sound_ChkValueFor00
Load81to9F:
        	cmpi.b    #$9F, d7
      		bls.w    Sound_81to9F; music    $81-$9F
Sound_ChkValue_OtherChecks:
		cmpi.b  #$FF,d7
		bge.s Sound_E0toF8
		cmpi.b	#$F0,d7
		ble.w	Sound_A0ToCF
		cmpi.b	#$F9,d7
		bge.w	Sound_E0toE4

Now, go to "Sound_81to9F:", and change it to this: 

Sound_ChkValueFor00:
        	cmpi.b #$FF, d7; $FF = Last slot will be musics in index $00 - $7F ($FF = $7F)
        	bls.w   Sound_81to9F
        	rts


Sound_81to9F:				; XREF: Sound_ChkValue
		cmpi.b	#$98,d7		; is "extra life" music	played?
		bne.s	loc_72024	; if not, branch
		tst.b	$27(a6)
		bne.w	loc_721B6
		lea	$40(a6),a5
		moveq	#9,d0

Finally, we are going to Change the number of sound test slots in the options and level select menus

To change the Options Sound Test,

Go to "word_917A:"

You will see something like this: 

	dc.w $7FFF	; 4
	dc.w Sound_test_sound	; 5

Change the "$7" in "$7FFF" to anything you like, like "$FFFF", or "$CFFF"


To change the Level Select Sound Test,

Go to "loc_9522:"

You will see something like this: 

loc_9522:
	cmpi.w	#$15,(Level_select_zone).w
	bne.s	loc_958A
	move.w	(Sound_test_sound).w,d0
	move.b	(Ctrl_1_Press).w,d1
	btst	#2,d1
	beq.s	loc_953E
	subq.b	#1,d0
	bcc.s	loc_953E
	moveq	#$7F,d0

On the last moveq Change the "$7" in "$7F,d0" to mach the first two letters in the value you used above, like "$FF", or "$CF".

Go to "loc_954E:"

You will see something like this: 

loc_954E:
	btst	#6,d1
	beq.s	loc_955C
	addi.b	#$10,d0
	andi.b	#$7F,d0

As before but on andi.b Change the "$7" in "$7F,d0" to the value you used above, like "$FF", or "$CF".

Lastly, Head back up to "loc_953E:" it should be between the two sections you just changed.

You will see something like this: 

loc_953E:
	btst	#3,d1
	beq.s	loc_954E
	addq.b	#1,d0
	cmpi.w	#$80,d0
	bcs.s	loc_954E
	moveq	#0,d0

change it to this: 

loc_953E:
	btst	#3,d1
	beq.s	loc_954E
	addq.b	#1,d0
