Fighter's History MK

Project finished:
https://www.zeldix.net/t1872-fighter-s-history-mk

I've already done a Fighter's History Dynamite PCM pack, but never released it (both the arcade and Neo Geo CD/Saturn arranged soundtracks). But go ahead if you want, as I was kind of saving it if anyone did a (highly doubtful) patch for Mizoguchi Kiki Ippatsu!!.

I hope you like it!

Thanks a lot, I added it to first post

That's pretty cool, Pev. Thanks! Good luck with it.

I tried with japanese Fighter's History - Mizoguchi Kikiippatsu!! (J) [b1] and game crashed when using
$D01997: #$2f

But I found this:
$D0/001A C2 10       REP #$10                A:EE07 X:001E
With X, you should be able to differ themes
F3 is fade out
F4 is mute
07 is always a new track introducion

So I would hack here:

Code:


org $D0001A
JSL msu

org $freespace
msu:
Rep #$10 ;native code
Sep #$20 ; native code
PHA
CMP #$07 ; track change?
BEQ $02
PLA
RTL
LDA $2002
CMP #$53
BEQ playmsu
PLA
RTL
playmsu:
STZ $2006
TXA
STA $2004
STZ $2005
loop:
BIT $2000
BVS loop
PLA
LDA #$F4 ; mute!
RTL

Pev, maybe it's a good idea to open a topic in the dev section
https://www.zeldix.net/f11-msu-1-development
So we have an own topic and people can help out with pcm pr code if you run into problems?

@Conn Hmm, never mind your hook differentiates better. I am still using the same ROM and not crashing with the hard mute I'm using, though.

@Conn I see when I add your code alongside my hard mute, the game crashes.

It's experimental, but maybe you can differ tracks with $7e00ea or $7e00eb the tracks when using "my" hook.
I need to go to bed now, much luck

@Conn It is the code. Still trying to figure out why since I see no part of your code destroying native code.

@Conn I'll figure it out. It is probably something silly. Sleep well, my friend.

@Conn Ok, I figured it out. I just had to find a safe freespace ROM area. Now my hard mute and your code coexist in harmony.

@Pev,
Whoops, I just sent you a code with nmi, soft mute (spc fallback and such stuff). It uses $C0 to differ tracks.

@Conn Awesome, time to pack this up. Early Xmas time.

I hope it all works... as for the fade out which is called via #$f3, there's a problem:
in some fade outs (e.g., intro to title screen) there are no nmi:s called, so here the fade-outs don't work

I catched it with this code:

CMP #$F3 ; fade out
BNE nofade
LDA $0102
CMP #$0f ; this track doesn't work with fading
BNE $05
STZ $2007
PLA
RTL
LDA #$01
STA $7e0101 ;set fade flag
PLA
RTL

So, 0f is an exception and immediately mutes now. If you go from beginning to story, you'll have the same problem.
So you can stop here the track as well with an exception, or keep it playing until #$f4 (total mute is called).
Luckily the fade works for all fight over though.

I do not have time until tomorrow afternoon, but we keep in touch if there are further problems

@Conn I sent you an email regarding minor issues in story mode. So far, stage music is differentiated. Will continue testing.

Sent you a version back that differs the savestates you sent

@Conn, @Pev , Hello, I was board so I thought this might help,

I hope this can help in the makeing of said code, this is all of the sta's that are in the game. If it does not help out at all, I understand and I am sorry. If you need some help I am always here :-D

Thanks PG, no worries we're working hard on it behind the scenes, and are almost through.

Your very welcome Conn, I am glade that it help you guys out. That's great to here that its almost done. If you need someone to map trace the game, please let me know. I would like to do that
