(Original guide by Lilggamegenuis)
So, you want to add separate act music huh? Well this guide is going to show you a easy way to implement this!
Keep in mind that i made this with the clone driver already installed but i do believe that i added everything to implement it for stock
Contents
How sega did it
Ok, go in your S2.asm and take a look at the music list You should see this
MusicList: zoneOrderedTable 1,1
zoneTableEntry.b MusID_EHZ ; 0 ; EHZ
zoneTableEntry.b MusID_EHZ ; 1
zoneTableEntry.b MusID_MTZ ; 2
zoneTableEntry.b MusID_OOZ ; 3
zoneTableEntry.b MusID_MTZ ; 4 ; MTZ1,2
zoneTableEntry.b MusID_MTZ ; 5 ; MTZ3
zoneTableEntry.b MusID_WFZ ; 6 ; WFZ
zoneTableEntry.b MusID_HTZ ; 7 ; HTZ
zoneTableEntry.b MusID_HPZ ; 8
zoneTableEntry.b MusID_SCZ ; 9
zoneTableEntry.b MusID_OOZ ; 10 ; OOZ
zoneTableEntry.b MusID_MCZ ; 11 ; MCZ
zoneTableEntry.b MusID_CNZ ; 12 ; CNZ
zoneTableEntry.b MusID_CPZ ; 13 ; CPZ
zoneTableEntry.b MusID_DEZ ; 14 ; DEZ
zoneTableEntry.b MusID_ARZ ; 15 ; ARZ
zoneTableEntry.b MusID_SCZ ; 16 ; SCZ
zoneTableEnd
even
Now take a look at musiclist2 right beneath it It should look like this
MusicList2: zoneOrderedTable 1,1
zoneTableEntry.b MusID_EHZ_2P ; 0 ; EHZ 2P
zoneTableEntry.b MusID_EHZ ; 1
zoneTableEntry.b MusID_MTZ ; 2
zoneTableEntry.b MusID_OOZ ; 3
zoneTableEntry.b MusID_MTZ ; 4
zoneTableEntry.b MusID_MTZ ; 5
zoneTableEntry.b MusID_WFZ ; 6
zoneTableEntry.b MusID_HTZ ; 7
zoneTableEntry.b MusID_HPZ ; 8
zoneTableEntry.b MusID_SCZ ; 9
zoneTableEntry.b MusID_OOZ ; 10
zoneTableEntry.b MusID_MCZ_2P ; 11 ; MCZ 2P
zoneTableEntry.b MusID_CNZ_2P ; 12 ; CNZ 2P
zoneTableEntry.b MusID_CPZ ; 13
zoneTableEntry.b MusID_DEZ ; 14
zoneTableEntry.b MusID_ARZ ; 15
zoneTableEntry.b MusID_SCZ ; 16
zoneTableEnd
even
Ss you can see, they are practically identical with the exception of the 3 2-player specific songs
If you take a look at the code to load the bgms, you can see how this works
Level_GetBgm:
tst.w (Demo_mode_flag).w
bmi.s +
moveq #0,d0
move.b (Current_Zone).w,d0
lea MusicList(pc),a1
tst.w (Two_player_mode).w
beq.s Level_PlayBgm
lea MusicList2(pc),a1
After this piece of code has run it goes to level_playbgm with the 2p musiclist pointer in the register instead of the 1p list. Now applying this method we can do the same to make different acts run different music
Setting up the music list
Now what you'll want to do is just copy the musiclist table (doesen't matter which one) and put it beneath musiclist2 or you can use the 2p list instead. Now change each act name with a second act to XXZ2 (XX meaning the stage initials. Also you could name it something else if you want but in the guide i will use this format for act 2 songs) Note: You will need to keep all the songs that don't have a act 2 (or the act 3 for MTZ), If you remove the the ones before a act 2, As it will cause the wrong music to play. Now go back up to musiclist (the first one) and change the second MTZ to MTZ3. With metropolis zone it treats act 3 as a different zone in act 1 Now that we have set up the music list its time to add the songs to the constants to be played
Setting up the constants
Now we're going to need to setup the music so they can be played in the table. Open up your constants file and go to where the music ids start. It should look like this.
; Music IDs
offset := zMasterPlaylist
ptrsize := 1
idstart := $81
; $80 is reserved for silence, so if you make idstart $80 or less,
; you may need to insert a dummy zMusIDPtr in the $80 slot
MusID__First = idstart
MusID_2PResult = id(zMusIDPtr_2PResult) ; 81
MusID_EHZ = id(zMusIDPtr_EHZ) ; 82
MusID_MCZ_2P = id(zMusIDPtr_MCZ_2P) ; 83
MusID_OOZ = id(zMusIDPtr_OOZ) ; 84
MusID_MTZ = id(zMusIDPtr_MTZ) ; 85
MusID_HTZ = id(zMusIDPtr_HTZ) ; 86
MusID_ARZ = id(zMusIDPtr_ARZ) ; 87
MusID_CNZ_2P = id(zMusIDPtr_CNZ_2P) ; 88
MusID_CNZ = id(zMusIDPtr_CNZ) ; 89
MusID_DEZ = id(zMusIDPtr_DEZ) ; 8A
MusID_MCZ = id(zMusIDPtr_MCZ) ; 8B
MusID_EHZ_2P = id(zMusIDPtr_EHZ_2P) ; 8C
MusID_SCZ = id(zMusIDPtr_SCZ) ; 8D
MusID_CPZ = id(zMusIDPtr_CPZ) ; 8E
MusID_WFZ = id(zMusIDPtr_WFZ) ; 8F
MusID_HPZ = id(zMusIDPtr_HPZ) ; 90
MusID_Options = id(zMusIDPtr_Options) ; 91
MusID_SpecStage = id(zMusIDPtr_SpecStage) ; 92
MusID_Boss = id(zMusIDPtr_Boss) ; 93
MusID_EndBoss = id(zMusIDPtr_EndBoss) ; 94
MusID_Ending = id(zMusIDPtr_Ending) ; 95
MusID_SuperSonic = id(zMusIDPtr_SuperSonic); 96
MusID_Invincible = id(zMusIDPtr_Invincible); 97
MusID_ExtraLife = id(zMusIDPtr_ExtraLife) ; 98
MusID_Title = id(zMusIDPtr_Title) ; 99
MusID_EndLevel = id(zMusIDPtr_EndLevel) ; 9A
MusID_GameOver = id(zMusIDPtr_GameOver) ; 9B
MusID_Continue = id(zMusIDPtr_Continue) ; 9C
MusID_Emerald = id(zMusIDPtr_Emerald) ; 9D
MusID_Credits = id(zMusIDPtr_Credits) ; 9E
MusID_Countdown = id(zMusIDPtr_Countdown) ; 9F
MusID__End = id(zMusIDPtr__End) ; A0
Or if you have the clone driver installed
; Music IDs
offset := MusicIndex
ptrsize := 4
idstart := 1
; $00 is reserved for silence
MusID__First = idstart
MusID_2PResult = id(ptr_mus81) ; 01
MusID_EHZ = id(ptr_mus82) ; 02
MusID_MCZ_2P = id(ptr_mus83) ; 03
MusID_OOZ = id(ptr_mus84) ; 04
MusID_MTZ = id(ptr_mus85) ; 05
MusID_HTZ = id(ptr_mus86) ; 06
MusID_ARZ = id(ptr_mus87) ; 07
MusID_CNZ_2P = id(ptr_mus88) ; 08
MusID_CNZ = id(ptr_mus89) ; 09
MusID_DEZ = id(ptr_mus8A) ; 0A
MusID_MCZ = id(ptr_mus8B) ; 0B
MusID_EHZ_2P = id(ptr_mus8C) ; 0C
MusID_SCZ = id(ptr_mus8D) ; 0D
MusID_CPZ = id(ptr_mus8E) ; 0E
MusID_WFZ = id(ptr_mus8F) ; 0F
MusID_HPZ = id(ptr_mus90) ; 10
MusID_Options = id(ptr_mus91) ; 11
MusID_SpecStage = id(ptr_mus92) ; 12
MusID_Boss = id(ptr_mus93) ; 13
MusID_EndBoss = id(ptr_mus94) ; 14
MusID_Ending = id(ptr_mus95) ; 15
MusID_SuperSonic = id(ptr_mus96) ; 16
MusID_Invincible = id(ptr_mus97) ; 17
MusID_ExtraLife = id(ptr_mus98) ; 18
MusID_Title = id(ptr_mus99) ; 19
MusID_EndLevel = id(ptr_mus9A) ; 1A
MusID_GameOver = id(ptr_mus9B) ; 1B
MusID_Continue = id(ptr_mus9C) ; 1C
MusID_Emerald = id(ptr_mus9D) ; 1D
MusID_Credits = id(ptr_mus9E) ; 1E
MusID_Countdown = id(ptr_mus9F) ; 1F
MusID__End = id(ptr_musend) ; 20
Now add the extra music ids for the new zones. If you add a second one for each zone with a act 2, the last entry should be A9.
Now go to where the music is included. If you have the clone driver installed it is in the Sonic 2 Clone Driver v2 - Music.asm which is normally in the sound folder (Don't forget to add the pointers at the top!). If you are not using the clone driver go to s2.asm and find the loc_F803C: label.
Now add to the lists the correct ids (used in the constants). After you finish that go down to where the files are included (or bincluded if you do not have ASM music support). And make them match the ids above, just change the labels on the left but don't change the filenames yet, thats for the next section
Filenames
Now, for those that don't have ASM'd music, it will a easy copy, paste, and rename. But for those with ASM'd music you will need to go into each one and change the main project names and labels to something else or you will get double defined errors. You should be able to take the song name and simply do a find and replace on it. Now after you finished doing what you need to do, go back and change the includes to reflect the filenames you changed. Almost done, just have to edit the music loading code to use the new musiclist
Editing the game code
Now the easy and short part. Go to the label Level_GetBgm Now what you'll want to do is add at the end a new label. Ex level_GetAct Now go back up to where it says to branch to Level_PlayBgm and replace it with the new label you just added. Go to where is says lea MusicList2(pc),a1 and add bra.s Level_PlayBgm after that to make sure 2 player works. now in the level_GetAct add this
tst.b (Current_Act).w
beq.s Level_PlayBgm
lea MusicList3(pc),a1
This will check if its act 2 and play the correct list Go ahead and build, it should work but if you just copied and pasted the song files it will still play the same music.
If there is something wrong or it doesn't work right, add a comment and i'll try and fix it.
