Official SMW Music Porting Help Thread (Read first post!!)

Only for ports that were made for AddMusic 4.05.

Well, I have put it both like #amk 1 and 2, and it still didnt work. I also put all of my samples in the optimized folder, but I dunno if I need to do that or not. XD

No, you don't need to place those samples in the optimized folder. I dunno where you're getting those steps from.

Oh, I am just doing these steps by myself, nothing much. I`ll put them out, then. XD

EDIT: It still doesnt work, though... well, this is going to be pretty tough to do... XD

But yeah, I still dunno what to do tbh, especially since I want to see if these remixes are AMK portable, but I have no idea on how this works. XD

OK, you should read the readme.html, and ports that others made.

Well, I have been able to get through with the songs I mentioned (with some help I had from LadiesMan), but I cant really seem to get some other songs through AMK the same way, heck, even following LadiesMan`s tips (basically, just put the .txt files in the music folder and the samples in the samples folder. Simple, I know, but I didnt knew that before so...). Basically, I have STILL been getting the ``sample not found´´ error, and, yet again, I dunno what to do after that. *sigh* Really, REALLY sorry for all the inconvenience I have been giving, but I want to share my ports, and I have literally no idea on how this works. *sigH*

You have to put the samples into the folder that is in the samples folder. When you use #path it's what folder that it's going to choose where it's going to locate the samples in an folder that is in the samples folder. Just copy the name that is #path to and it should fix your problem.

Well, I have put everything in the samples folder, but they are all bundled in one folder with subfolders in that folder Folderception much? XD, and I put the path as the respective subfolders in the primary folder. Do I have to take out all of the samples in the folder and actually put them in the samples folder? Or do I have to do something else? XD

Yes, make sure those MMX samples are in the MMX Sample sub-folder thing. If it doesn't work, you probably misspelled the sub-folder's name in the #path.

Well, I have renamed the samples and put them out of the subfolders and they`re now in the MMX Sample folder, and I also renamed every instrument and changed the sample path to reflect that (phew... that was a lot of work, especially since I was dealing with 12 files and not 1), but its still having that ``sample not found´´ error. *sigh*

Well, I have FINALLY gotten AMKGUI to upload the damn .txt files (thank god. It was probably because that either there was some misspelled stuff that I fixed or that I put all the samples on the sample group list. Probably the former, though). Phew, that sure took a long time... XD

Now, I wanna know something else: how can I input custom music into Lunar Magic so I can test it out on the game itself? I have the msc file already, but I dont see any way to input msc files onto Lunar Magic itself. But yeah, thanks for everything guys!

The .msc just shows the list of the names of the music from the #lm{music} button. What do you mean input to Lunar Magic?

Yeah, sorry, I didnt really know that before, so that`s why I said that. Disregard my post, then. XD

All right, so, I am having another problem now: after I port the songs to AMKGUI and gets the updated SPC files, the song doest loop properly when I listen to the SPC with SPC Play (and sometimes, even the instruments too). How do I fix this? XD

Check the stat folder of that song. Some channels probably end earlier than others.

Hmm, how do I do that, exactly? Is it something to do with the numbers in text file? Because if it is, then I dunno how to modify that. XD

Make sure every channel ends at the same time. The song loops as soon as the shortest channel ends.
