Could you upload it to some hosting site like google drive or mega? But, please make sure that the sound isn't working in the game before you upload the file!

Nooodles Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Just uploaded it to "Goth1" on a fresh install, and i can play in game. I'm not going to test on Roman again. So it working on the custom ones is perfect, thanks for your help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heath Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Hi there So the sound editor works great for me, have replaced any superstar entrance themes with no issues. Downloaded the menu music patcher and ran it, says it worked. Replaced themes in the game_mode_m.pck file with my converted wems, same as i did with the entrance themes. The issue is, the music isn't replaced in the game, it plays the built in menu music still. Am i missing a step somewhere? Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheVisitorX Posted February 15, 2018 Author Share Posted February 15, 2018 (edited) I will check that, but game_mode_m.pck should be the right file. At least it was the right file in version 1.01. Which one have you tried to replace? Edited February 15, 2018 by TheVisitorX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I replaced all the sounds in that file, even though when I play them they are not the menu music, it is a bunch of announcer stuff. I also replaced all music in the soundtrack_m.pck, because when i played those within sound editor they were the menu music, but even with both files completely replaced with imported songs it still doesn't do anything. I am currently updated to v1.06, but i was at 1.03 before yesterday with the same issue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are two entries, one is "english (us)" which is mostly commentary or ring announcements - and "sfx". All sounds and themes are within the sfx section! So you have replaced the wrong files! Most PCK files have only an sfx or english (us) entry, but that file has both. Edited February 15, 2018 by TheVisitorX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freakin' Adam Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Oh, I didn't even realise I had the game open. It's working now. Thanks! BTW, once the song ends in the game does it just start over again? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe this info amongst other things like HBKs corner flip bump, straps coming down on tank tops etc are hard coded into the game by slot 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that is the case, the injection went wrong. Are you sure that your game is closed? Did you check that in the task manager? Sometimes the game doesn't properly close.

I just tried the "Check for Updates" within the software and it reports "There is no new version available". I had been updating each new version, but I also looked in the "Info" and it says 1.0.3.3319 from 1/24/18. Maybe that wasn't updating with the recent data.xml updates? Also, I have completed indexing a couple more files so I'll post updated custom_data downloads later this evening as I work through a few more.

TheVisitorX Posted February 15, 2018 Author Share Posted February 15, 2018 (edited) Modding audio from previous versions is "tricky" this year. They have changed the structure and also removed some references from last year. Seems like the _startup_audio_pXX.pac in pac/root holds some references to the themes in the game, because if I delete that file for (p30), the game doesn't play themes for the latest DLC (Jeff Hardy for example). If anyone is interested in sound-modding, you should take a closer look at the files in this pac. Seems like the game processes that file at startup (as name says). 22 minutes ago, TheKreator said: It worked now, thank you! And the version is correct in the Info section.

Seems like such a simple thing, but what a difference it makes when going through these as much as I have lately! *hehe* Yeah I completely forgot to mention that change :D. Resizing is still a bit "buggy", because some table columns have fixed sizes, which makes a problem if you try to resize the grid. It still needs some tuning.

TheKreator Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 The file sfx_m.pck is interesting and relevant to the Menu Music because all the menu music is in here too! Under "english (us)" it's all referee vocals which are hilarious, but also include tons of names of wrestlers not in 2K18 like CM Punk, MVP, Jack Swagger, Rey Mysterio, etc... so these are obviously just full of sound clips from prior years they didn't mess with. (Also, the referees don't use hardly any of these lines that I can recall. I wish they did because the voice over guy who recorded these has some funny lines threatening to DQ people, asking if they give up, begging guys not to use weapons, etc...) Under "sfx" it's mostly sound effects as you'd expect, like Pyro blasts, fireworks, lightning bolts, ambient background audio for career mode... but if you sort based on size, the largest files are all the menu music. (So odd that they store so many copies of the same thing in multiple places, but maybe one location is the actual music played during the menu, and one list is only used when accessing it from the in-game "jukebox"?)

TheVisitorX Posted February 15, 2018 Author Share Posted February 15, 2018 Interesting. This file is a bit of a mystery this year... I'm not sure if the game actually uses that file and why it exists!? The menu music is also defined in the game_mode_m.pck and that's the file which the game actually uses.
