additionally, the e-mail i sent snesmusic seems to have been ignored or otherwise disregarded for reasons unbeknown to me, so here are the sets i spent ages fixing up on their behalf...

You suppose the SNSF-to-SPC treatment might tame it better in terms for a final redump, like Nenson did (mostly) with Super Mario Kart?
the wiki isn't too conducive to productivity either. discussion is very unorganised, so it's only really good for the account of what needs to be done.
JFD62780: that was someone else's fix. the info in the set's text file says "Rough Landing" was redumped, while the set i have uploaded has a better version of "License", and is retagged to credit Soyo Oka only (according to her JCAA page.) both "Hangglider" and "Light Plane" need redumps too (truncated), as well as "Sky Diving" (missing at least one channel - the echo on the lead.) i've got a good dump of Hangglider, but i couldn't work out how to remove channel 8.
http://www.shakal.net/lunar/temp/Hangglider.spc
so, here's hoping my email has been noted...
i agree, it is odd how such popular games manage to remain dumped so badly. SNSF does sidestep the whole issue of tracks being sloppily dumped, and the issue of missing/hidden songs. just sucks that the trade-off is that not everyone has the expertise to rip 'em!

I'm really tired of this. Maybe I should start ripping SNSFs.

"...SNSF does sidestep the whole issue of tracks being sloppily dumped, and the issue of missing/hidden songs. just sucks that the trade-off is that not everyone has the expertise to rip 'em!"
I was thinking the SNSF-to-SPC method, because it might apparently be the ONLY way to properly dump Hangglider and Skydiving respectively, because of the stubborn sound effects that insist on playing nanoseconds before the first note! X(
As for Light Plane and Helicopter, all's they need is a better timed dump. If at first you don't succeed, try until you lose your mind. That's how I dumped DOOM and got in. ;)

Couldn't we use that method to make a Wario's Woods SPC set? Probably not because the sound code was not written in SPC700, rather it was written in 65816; which is the main CPU. I don't know why I asked if I answered my own question.
1. Make a music modifier for Pilotwings. I didn't even attempt this game.
2. Modify G-SPC so you can save changes to to the four ports (2140, 2141, 2142 and 2143) as a .SPC file. For Pilotwings you will need to change a value at 2140 to 06 using a non Sound Effect SPC file.)
http://gigo.retrogames.com/gspc/gspc016.lzh
There is no source for the program, unfortunately otherwise I'd take a look and see if I could add a save to SPC option. If someone could do this then it will coax the requirement of SNSFs for many games.
edited 8:21 PM EDT October 27, 2009
Actually, a quick look confirms that it's just a full SPC700 init, with $2140,$2142/$F4,$F6 as the song/propeller sound selects. Here's a set of them, and they should be quite good enough based on past successes with this method.
http://castleofthewinds.angelfire.com/
I did need at least cursory knowledge to correctly place Super-Gameboy data writes in the correct spots, and you'd be surprised how many games write all songs to the SPC700 at once, then send a look-up number to it using one of the registers.
edited 10:32 PM EDT October 27, 2009
In response to your edited text, you can find the 2140-2143 SNES registers at 0x1F4-0x1F7 in the .SPC files, and they are referenced as $F4-$F7 internally to the SPC. SNES9X Debugger has these in ARAM, at the internal address locations. Now contribute stuff.

I don't know what this actually means, since few people actually give a shit about SPC ripping period. Whose attention, exactly, are you hoping to attract?
In short, there are more people who need to be informed of developments who are of lesser mental caliber than in other ripping formats.

You've proven to be relentless in your pursuit of answers to questions, but you're even more full of yourself now, when you're barely showing your capacity, than I am now, with a rather decent degree of experience, a number of contributions among a spectrum of music ripping/code hacking, and even enough programming experience to be vaguely useful when writing code in C++, PHP, SQL, and Visual Basic.
Even when I was very inexperienced, I tried to see if there were reasonable alternatives to thinking that something was either done by me, or done before me.
In short, you think quite highly of yourself, and in fact, I believe you think little of my abilities. To think little of me is, in itself, of no concern to me, but to do so baselessly, while requesting information, and deciding that I am so incapable as to require stealing your marginal accomplishments...that gives me such a negative opinion of you that I can't see your name without recalling how disruptive you are to people who might, otherwise, be doing something useful or significant for themselves or others.
You've only just started showing some signs of advancing past the complete 'noob' stage you've been in, and now you 'don't feel like it'. Either earn your respect, or accept that no matter how good you are at given activity (X), someone will always best you in some way, either through statistical chance, favorable project-specific skills, or outright superior understanding.
(If you'd like to see more of my rantings and ravings, you can read my various experimental postings on Digg, and their various public appeal ratings and responses. Kudos to them for upgrading my 'verbosity' intrinsic capability to 'long windedness')
*fires up emulator listening carefully* Well, I'll be damned, I thought the opening vamp played twice as long! I wasn't really paying attention, who knew? :P
*ahem* In short, despite the A.D.D.-laden previous two paragraphs, I need only say two words:
YOU WIN! >;)
edited 4:28 AM EDT October 28, 2009
The rip, however, was simple. I think I spent less total time on the rip than I did adequately explaining myself. I can definitively say that studying language and meaning has given me broadly applicable logic, while studying programming has enhanced and sharpened my sequential reasoning skills immensely, as well as allowing me to focus on smaller logical points that could break an argument's validity.
Not that anybody cares much about what I just wrote, but it's good practice, and appeals to my occasional desire to tell people about things in detail whether they want to hear about them or not.
anyone's really. a smallish team of contributors with good communication is better than an even smaller team with poor communication. SPC ripping needs manpower and little else. i think you'd be surprised at the amount of people who visit snesmusic and download the sets/contribute too.
anyway, i'm only saying this because it's annoying when you're plainly trying to engage people and getting nowhere.
ugetab just won a billion internets with that pilotwings set. thanks~!#!~1#!
edited 7:24 AM EDT October 28, 2009
Getting back on topic... UGEtab, provided I properly tag the beauts, crediting those that originally made the tags in the first place, may I ask permission to submit the set as a possible final rip to SNESMuaic? ;)
You, of course, will earn sole credit for the rip, obviously. :)
updated the Mother 3 GSF set, filling out the previously empty title fields for all the 999 tracks. I also renamed "Sound of Siren (no intro)" to "Flint's House". it is the same tune, but it's in flint's house where the music is heard in the game. no other changes.

would anyone be able to stick this up on caitsith2's site? cheerz
edited 5:45 AM EST November 5, 2009
Wait a tick. That set makes the songs stutter. Check out the Let's Begin! track. I've noticed this in VBA-M itself, but the old set doesn't have this issue.
edited 11:03 PM EST November 5, 2009
Shin Bokura no Taiyou, or rather Boktai 3 is finally tagged and timed, and is ready to be put up on GSF and wherever.
Also took a look at the Boktai 1 and Boktai 2 sets and did some fine tuning if UF or CaitSith want to update those as well.
in other news the set is now up, now back to doing nothing

yea, for some reason, the set has playback issues with viogsf. it sounds fine on highly advanced though. it might be an issue with viogsf rather than the set.
edit: also the set isn't new, it's the same set that was previously available on gsf central already. the set you must have had was the first one that was ripped, which as i said before, was fucked up in other ways.

I never released them before due to prior frustrations with M3U list tagging, which I've got sorted out now. the GBS file header is also updated.
edit: speaking of that, it seems most m3u lists out there have composer info in the track titles, instead of using the GBS header for composer info... which is kinda dumb, and doesn't work in fb2k :/ i have much editing to do. granted, you can't do track-specific credits using the GBS header... i'd be tempted to use duplicate GBS files for that purpose though. ha.
edited 11:22 AM EST January 2, 2010
I can edit the headers myself, just give me a list which files and which composers to add.
Split into MSX and Sega sections.
Complete overhaul of Sega one, added both VGM logs and the new emulated format by kevtris.
also i'm going to post this in two threads since it took so long
Pokémon Heart Gold & Soul Silver Tagged 2SFs
I've been working on Pokémon Pinball tags, based on the tracks listed here, though it has transpired that the GBS file is missing at least 6 jingles (End Of Ball Bonus, End Of Bonus Stage, Evolution Completed, Go To Bonus Stage, Moved To Another Area, Pokemon Caught.) I'm wondering if I can persuade anyone to investigate/re-rip the soundtrack if need be?
It's hard to find credits for this game also, though GMCL credits just Go Ichinose. It certainly sounds like his music. Regardless, I know there are ingame credits, not sure how to access them at this point.
I recognize two unknown songs from Pokémon Crystal:
9-99 (04b4) ME_CARDGAME1 (Unknown).mini2sf (When you're playing the Card Flip game in the Goldenrod Game Gorner)
9-99 (04b5) ME_CARDGAME2 (Unknown).mini2sf = (When you retire from a Game Corner game, also from Gold and Silver)
i'll edit and reupload after. i put arrangement credits in the comments too so i need to re-up anyway.
Edit: And thank you very much for the tags!!!

Pokémon Heart Gold & Soul Silver Tagged 2SFs -- update (check comments fields for arranger info.)
It's a complete GSF/FLAC set for the three GAME BOY titles of THE LEGEND OF ZELDA (Link's Awakening / Link's Awakening DX / Oracle of Seasons / Oracle of Ages).
Enjoy!
I redid all the tags and timings (which were pretty horrid in the previous releases) and ripped some additional tracks that were missing, so this is the complete collection of all songs as they appear in the games.
Seasons: 15,16,18,35 are from ugetab's Link's Awakening sound effect GSF set.
Ages: 18,19,21,30,44 are from ugetab's Link's Awakening sound effect GSF set.
edited 7:50 PM EST January 6, 2010
Prime Blue, this is good and all, though I'm not sure why you have used (I guess) romanisations or literal translations of the japanese game and track names when there are western releases. For instance, renne instead of lynna. Aboveground rather than Overworld doesn't click with me either. these names are more idiosyncratic than they need to be, and actually pretty confusing even to people like me who have played the games. would have also been cool to have "Level X:" for all the dungeon themes. so in a lot of senses these tags aren't an improvement over the previous ones :( the only real improvement for me is that these have file names and accurate composer info.
Lunar: I was talking about the timings, and those were really horrid: No delay after the second loop, too short fade-outs (missing even for Oracle of Seasons/Ages), the ending credits theme of Link's Awakening cut off and stuff like that.
I always opt for the names the original creators used, so I went with the Japanese ones here. Part of that stems from the fact that I always try to make the track titles sound as if from an official release.
It's not like it can't be corrected, though. A quick psfpoint -game="The Legend of Zelda: Yadda-Yadda" *.minigsf and getting the official Western names from the text dumps or that list, and that's it.
Also, "Aboveground" is the official title as used on the soundtracks and I highly disapprove of the term "overworld" for anything above the ground. I understand it as a world map or terrain where the controls of the game change and from which the individual locations in a game can be reached.
edited 11:28 AM EST January 7, 2010
Also, if you wanted to use the names the original creators used, you should've gone with ƒ[ƒ‹ƒ_‚Ì“`à–²‚ð‚݂铇, ƒ[ƒ‹ƒ_‚Ì“`à ‚Ó‚µ‚¬‚Ì–Ø‚ÌŽÀ `Žž‹ó‚ÌÍ`, ƒ[ƒ‹ƒ_‚Ì“`à ‚Ó‚µ‚¬‚Ì–Ø‚ÌŽÀ ~‘å’n‚ÌÍ~. Anything else is just plain stupid.
I went ahead and tagged/timed Pokémon Pinball, for anyone who's interested:
put a bangin' donk on it
composer info taken from GMCL. can't find credits anywhere on the net, can't even find credits in a let's play or anything. so it'll have to do. up to gbs.hcs64 plz?! and hopefully penultimate GBS too :3
