However, things aren't broken up by tile, so I'm not sure how much extra work would be required to modify things for the Genesis's graphics storage mode.

#MEGAMAN X SPRITES DRIVER#
"Chiptuned" Raijin has also completed more of the soundtrack since this thread was last updated, e.g.įurthermore, since both artists take care to make sure their arrangements can actually be played on real hardware, in a sense a major chunk of the work of a port has already been done! Perhaps MarkeyJester's sound driver could be used, even?īeyond the music, here are some other resources that have appeared since the last time there was a post to this thread:ġ. What brought me to the topic was the amazing release last year by Savaged Regime (posting as GeckoYamori in this thread?), of the *entire* Megaman X soundtrack rearranged for the Genesis's sound hardware: I was idly speculating the other day about what it would take to port this game, and am totally unsurprised to see there's already a thread for the idea here. I would have to use a new Tracker or something that dumps sound code, and it would have to be in the limitation of the new driver. That's about the furthest a format can be if I wanted to make it for a game. To top it off, even if I wanted to do some new tracks for it, I couldn't. The game would need to be reworked with an entirely new sound driver. In this case, I would need to use the same sound driver Capcom used for that game to keep in the confinds of the music memory that game uses. I have tried twice already to make something like that. I wouldn't be able to add anything to a game. I wonder how hard it would be to change the original tracks, for new, improved ones.I have not, and not too interested currently. With all the hacking going in that game as of late, from the graphics by Maxxfarras, to the voices engine by Stef, now all we wouldl need to add, is improved music tracks.
