Rejuvenation - Looping Battle Music Mod [V13]

Pokémon Rejuvenation: Looping Battle Music Mod

 

 

About

This mod allows for the battle music in Pokémon Rejuvenation to loop seamlessly and for as long as it needs to, rather than starting from the beginning/ intro once the end of the audio file is reached.

Note that I made a version of this mod for V12, however, it is by now far outdated and this new version no longer requires any .dll files, edits to pbs files, or direct edits to the script.

 

Compatibility

Since loopable audio files appear to be a feature of the mkxp engine, this mod only comes with audio files and one small script file that is placed in the /Data/Mods folder. This script file modifies the code in the game that is responsible for fetching audio files such that it redirects to an .ogg file of the same name as the originally requested .mp3 file if it is present. This is necessary because .mp3 files do not support loop metadata, so the files need to be in the .ogg format. Because of this redirection, the mod does not require modifications to any files that specify which audio should be played, which means that it should not break, even if V14 comes around. In fact, this mod should only break if very specific edits to the way the game handles audio are made which is unlikely to happen in any future update or from any other mod. That being said, if some battle music is changed, this mod would of course still use the old music until it is updated.

 

Installation

Step 1: Download the mod via the link at the bottom of this post.

Step 2: Extract the .zip file in your Pokémon Rejuvenation directory (this is the folder where "Game.exe" is located).

Step 3: If the extraction created a new folder called "Rejuvenation V13 - Looping Music Mod", move its contents (this should be two folders "Audio" and "Data") to your Pokémon Rejuvenation directory.

Optional: Delete all .mp3 files that now have a .ogg equivalent if you would like to save space. Note that most of the .ogg files are also much smaller in file size since there is no necessity for loops within the audio file unless there are variations present, in which case they were preserved to the best of my ability.

Done!

 

Known bugs

All .ogg files appear twice in the Jukebox menu. This does not affect the mod's functionality; cause unknown.
