Thank you.
Great update! The track title is very hard to read on high fps, animation is too fast.
You mentionned the ability to add new tracks, is there a way to encode my own music in .dat with something ?
Does THPS2 tracklist.ini can read other music format than .dat?

yeah, it's not the best solution for the title, but it's the only one working properly at the moment.
that .dat is actually just renamed .bik and you can encode music in bik using rad game tools.
it was discussed once over here:
http://thps-mods.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=4996in fact, you can keep your converted files as bik and just write it in tracklist.ini as is. you can also use subfolders.
so this line: thps3/chilis.bik
leads to: <thps2>\music\thps3\chilis.bik

Wonder if is it possible to set up the 360 d-pad in the cfg file?
I'm asking a little feature:- When THPS1 is started, the game look for tracklist-thps1.ini and load it if exist else load by default thps2 tracklist.ini
So it could be possible to have different tracklist for each games (thps3/4/mat hoffman), that would be cool
Here's the THPS1 USA OST (from Dreamcast files) converted in "perceptually lossless" (still lossy at the end) from the old version of RAD Video Tools on Windows XP (+tracklist.ini) :

http://levelmod.webatu.com/misc/th2patch_v3rc2.7zhttp://levelmod.webatu.com/misc/skaters.7z- hooking dinput.dll now, this way it does't require to edit exe and doesn't interfere with windowed ddraw proxy. before installing, disable DLL in the old launcher, or just restore smaller exe.
- found out that built in profile allows up to 4 style slots, so most skaters now have style C/D for th3/4 skins
- added newtex short name for every level, just in case.
- tracklist filename is now stored at 0x521168
for custom soundtracks you can add something like this to your userpatch.ini:
Code: Select all
[THPS1]
0x00521168=patch/tracklist_th1.ini*
[THPS2]
0x00521168=patch/tracklist_th2.ini*
[THPS3]
0x00521168=patch/tracklist_th3.ini*
in fact latest rad video tools on win7 gets the job done.
didn't check dpad yet. I guess they just hardcoded sticks there.

Ok, thanks for the custom soundtrack!
I have a freeze at character selection when I enable the addional skaters styles.
Here's the log:

check if your DATAPATH in cfg is correct.

Thanks, fixed!
There is only the C style of Bob Burnquist freezing the game at selection.

I must have missed something but I don't get any text in the games main menu when using the patch launcher. It's just a blank wheel. You can spin it and sound plays but you can't see what option is currently selected. What am I doing wrong?

As far as I know that's something with the widescreen. Not really sure.

Not sure if it was explicitly ever mentioned in the first post, but the main menu wheel graphics being missing are indeed a result of the new resolution code.
