Yeah that was it - had to open the m3u lists and change the names of the GBS files being referenced. I would have thought having the same filenames would suffice. How.... un-userfriendly :P

Well, it is quite simple. All that any M3U playlist does is point to the location of a file so the player can retrieve data from it. If there is an issue with the location or destination file, the player cannot do anything.

It is the same thing as telling someone to go to Shanghai, France or find the Sydney Opera House in London, England. In each of these cases the location does not exist and the destination does not exist respectively.

Anyway, there are two possible solutions to this problem:

1. Open the M3U file in a text editor (Notepad is fine) and replace the filename of your GBS with the filename in the M3U.

2. Open the file in a text editor, find the replace function (Ctrl+H in Notepad), and replace the default filename in the M3U file with the name of your file.

I hope that this is a help.

All the help I needed was in your previous post - thanks anyway.

@Warpstar: Thanks for those playlist. I've fixed the Tom and Jerry one, and put them along with all those new rips on my GBS listing site. :)

Oh, whoops. The track "Stage Complete" in the Tom and Jerry playlist should have a 0:00:00 fade, not 0:00:10.

Anyway, here's another set.

link

This one has:
Donkey Kong Country
Donkey Kong Land
Donkey Kong Land 2
Donkey Kong Land 3
Donkey Kong Land 3 JP
Street Fighter 2

The Donkey Kong Country list isn't too good, though. I've never played the GBC version, so I don't know where any of the tracks are used. The soundtrack consists almost entirely of reprises from the original DKC and Donkey Kong Land, so the tracks are IDed according to that.

Street Fighter II GB also had one track that I couldn't find on any other versions of SFII; I just labeled it as Ken's Ending 2, since the usual version of that track wasn't present.


I'll try to complete the DK set with Donkey Kong '94 next time.

One thing of note:

You can safely change the line

Tom and Jerry - Frantic Antics (1993)(Beam Software).gbs::GBS,1,Marshall Parker - Stage Theme 1,0:00:39,,0:0:10

to

Tom and Jerry - Frantic Antics (1993)(Beam Software).gbs::GBS,1,Marshall Parker - Stage Theme 1,39,,10

Or line

Tom and Jerry - Frantic Antics (1993)(Beam Software).gbs::GBS,10,Marshall Parker - Game Over,0:01:17,,0:0:10

to

Tom and Jerry - Frantic Antics (1993)(Beam Software).gbs::GBS,10,Marshall Parker - Game Over,01:17,,10

Little nitpicky, but it's somewhat better readable this way (and saves a few bytes as well). ;)

NEZPlug++ 0.9.4.8 + 2 + 7 released. Not sure what it does yet though...
by Warpstar at 5:08 AM EDT on August 30, 2007
More m3us.

link

Donkey Kong
Dragon Quest 1 & 2
Final Fantasy Adventure
Final Fantasy Legend
Final Fantasy Legend 2
Final Fantasy Legend 3

The Donkey Kong GBS is missing a few short tracks. The "Level Start" jingle, the standard "Death" jingle, and the Hammer theme are the few that stand out to me right now.

Given my limited knowledge of Dragon Quest jingles and fanfares, all of those tracks have been left unidentified at the end of the list for now.

From what I can see the only new thing NEZPlug +2+7 offers is a GBS/NSF memory viewer (seems this can help with ripping/debugging process, not sure how).
