[Intermediate] Custom My Music + Custom My Music Title Usage

[KingJigglypuff]

So do I need to add a code for every single stage, even the ones that aren't using custom My Music entries?

Yes, or else those stages will be silent, in addition to being locked if selecting them in My Music.

Also, if I ever wish to change any of my song titles, do I have to always do that through HEX?

Yes, in addition to altering the amount of bytes your name length is in the code itself.

Does this make the song lists in my MiscData7 within the mu_menumain.pac useless?

If you already have a title for a specific track ID, you won't need a code for that specific track. If you want to use your mu_menumain.pac over the title codes, you can do just that.

Ok, thanks for the quick reply! Still trying to wrap my head around this, but I'm learning as I go. A couple more questions if that's alright.

If I don't add the codes for the special stages, will those stages be silent like you said? Also, can I add my Song Title Setting Codes into one long code in Code Manager or do they each need to be added individually? Does that just help keep them sorted and labeled? Just asking because I have a lot of additional music using the CSE. Something like 300 additional songs so that will really crowd my RSBE01.txt lol.

Also, you said I could use my mu_menumain.pac over the title codes. Does that mean a method like this (I've used this method before) would also work for adding My Music song titles? http://forums.kc-mm.com/index.php?topic=72406.0

EDIT: Last one. Where would I find out how to expand my gameconfig.txt if I need to? Things seem to be working right now, but I'm afraid if I keep adding these song title codes, eventually I'll hit a code limit.

Special stages (Target Test, Homerun Contest, etc) require its own code to enable expanded tracks, so unless you have that code, you don't need to use the specific codes for Special Stages.

I have a feeling you would get conflicts if you tried to merge everything into one code. Even if it didn't, it would be hell to try and find out which track was which if you ever wanted to go back and alter your track name.

Yes, that should work. Except you would use the Expansion IDs instead.

Last one. Where would I find out how to expand my gameconfig.txt if I need to? Things seem to be working right now, but I'm afraid if I keep adding these song title codes, eventually I'll hit a code limit.

Go to JOJI's website, go to the SSBB Codes section, and look for "256 lines unlimited text V2". That's what I use for my gameconfig.txt.

Awesome! Thank you so much for all of this! This code is literally a dream of mine since Brawl's release!

If I end up getting my mu_menumain.pac working for this, I'll make a version to upload here with title slots for CSE3.0's brstms.
Post Merge: March 02, 2018, 01:01:26 AMHeya! SO new problem. Everything seems to be working fine on my regular stages, but with my Expansion stages (I'm testing with Custom01) the added music slots pop up in My Music just fine, but then when I go to play the game, I just get what I believe is Final Destination's theme? Is there an extra step for custom stages that I'm missing? Do I need to do or change something with the Stage Expansion Tool? Is there a code I missed somewhere?

EDIT: Taking a 2nd look at it, it appears that this code hasn't been working for me Expansion stages from the beginning, because the code even says to play the SSBB Main Theme and they don't.

EDIT 2: NEVERMIND! I figured it out. This expansion template had some left over Stage Dependent Song Loader code that was interfering and had to be removed. I'll leave this post up for anyone else who runs into the same situation.

ok so mine work, but for some reason after the first match the custom songs become silent am I missing a code?

Due to P+'s tracklist system being superior in every way possible, I would recommend you use that instead of JOJI's CMM system.
