Undetected Zelda64 Banks in Soundbank Tool #13

Closed isghj5 closed 4 years ago

isghj5 commented 4 years ago

In Majora's Mask U Bank 0x01 is missing from the discovered banks.

In OOT U 1.0 banks 0x01 and 0x02 are missing.

Maybe these banks aren't used by their vanilla games for music but they could prove useful for building custom music where sound effects are needed as instruments.

If possible, could these banks be detected for creation of soundfonts?

Edit: I think I successfully extracted MM:0x01 by using Seq64 copying bank 01 onto 00 then ripping 00, in case anyone else wants these banks

Not sure what you mean? It should match all the known banks of both games. How do you know they are missing? What is their offset?

I know it's missing because it's not there in the drop down list of banks and does not extract if you write all banks.

I know it exists because in Seq64 you can point sequences at the bank and play instruments there, and you can rip instruments from bank 01 to use in custom instrument sets. As per my edit, you can also use Seq64 to write bank 01 to bank 00 and use the soundbank tool to rip it as a soundfont.

My guess is it isn't detected as a bank because its not used by any sequence, its just sound effects, not actual instruments used in a song. They can still be used as instruments in songs if you have a song that needs sound effects (Looking at you clickclockwoods)

Oh you're talking about the soundbank tool. So, the only soundbanks there are ones mapped to a song. I suppose I can add them, in the gameconfig.ini, it maps soundbank to midi, so I guess we can add those back.

I uploaded a new gameconfig.ini that has those in there that you reported (01/02 OoT, 01 MM). They will show all midis.
