MSU-1 commedy

yep...another pointless MSU-1 BGM remix pack romhack...

the "music pack" for this game is 166.65MB in size and the rom hack is only usable with 1 emulator (bsnes).

and i bet all of the tracks in said music pack are nothing but a bunch of remixes you gathered from across the internet. nothing "CD Quality"

why not just spare yourself the effort needed for such pointless hacks by posting these "music packs" in a forum thread when the hacks aren't even needed at all? just stick the music files in a media player and have the audio from the emulator you're using muted. pretty much the same results.

when i say most or all of the music used for these MSU-1 romhacks are remix tracks, i'm not assuming anything.

just look through the credits sections of each romhack. reorchetration after...that's not even a real word. it is quite literally nothing but a gathering of remixed tracks for each game.

except maybe that rock'n'roll racing game. i'm not sure about that one since it seems to require the user to jump through extra hoops by having them setup and sort out the music themselves.

also, the music pack for Mega Man X has been taken down.

"The file you requested has been removed from MediaFire for a violation of our Terms of Service."

and the chrono trigger romhack's readme actually tells you to "Buy Chrono Symphony album in FLAC format (http://www.thechronosymphony.com/)." (is that even allowed here?)

who in their right mind would do that just for a romhack?

sorry but i really don't think i'm overreacting when i say virtually any media player would be a far better alternative to these romhacks and the amount of work they require to setup in comparison.

edit: i'll just stick to using VLC media player with the audio in whatever emulator i'm using muted. less time and effort required for pretty much the same results.

i could really care less about this since, as i pointed out before, the end result could still be achieved by simply using a media player. well, maybe not if your emulating on something that doesn't have or can't use a media player but if that's the case then whatever you're using better have a large hard drive to hold these bloated audio files.

this is especially true since, as nesrocks pointed out, the resulting audio quality isn't necessarily better as it depends on the tracks used. so the end result is entirely subjective at best.

going through the trouble of converting all these audio files to some obscure format hardly any media player can even play, let alone recognize, just to change the BGM in a video game... this just seems like a complete waste of time no matter how i look at it.

*starts up Gunstar Heroes in Kega Fusion with the audio muted and loads the "Be Aggressive! - A Gunstar Heroes Tribute Album" album in VLC Media Player*

there, same end result with little to no effort and other steps needed. takes 5, maybe 10 seconds to do.

Yes, if pausing to switch tracks and muting sfx is the preferred way of playing with cd quality, thumbs up

most valued info is that mega man x pcm:s are down, I notified ds via pm

There have been some issues with linking to the pcm files directly at youtube, it happened to castlevania and MegaMan X3 that the links to the google drive cloud was posted in the comments, and Kurrono got a DMCA.

The reason is that youtube is allowed to let people watch the videos online, but not let the content download for private use. E.g., some youtube-mp3 sites recently had to close.
My best guess is that an algorithm continuing checking the comments, and if a cloud link is present, automatically a DMCA is activated - which probably is in most cases right since the rom or full album to download is linked or something. However, our pcm files are also affected by this algorithm, so please only post the link to zeldix, but not the direct  cloud link.
