Any Length Song Title Tool 1.2 [Fixed Download]

[SalaComMander]

Really? How soon? Will I need it to fix the "a lot of uneeded information was left inside the info.pac" thing?

 

[Marth175]

All im getting after using the .exe after the naming the songs is an "alstt_out.pac" is this how it should work? cause i rename the file yet it doesnt work, and yes ive placed the file in the proper directory. do i have to unzip the files in the library folder inside the same directory as the program or on a folder inside that directory?

 

[SalaComMander]

Marth, did you edit the "edit_me_info_en.pac" to match your "songs.db"?

 

[Marth175]

Marth, did you edit the "edit_me_info_en.pac" to match your "songs.db"?

no, how do i do that? and what do i do with the stuff in the library zip, i unzipped it into a folder called library, is that right?

The output file is named info.pac, the other files are used by the program.

Theres nothing to fix about that. If you don't know what it means its not a problem.

Marth, did you edit the "edit_me_info_en.pac" to match your "songs.db"?

You don't need to edit that file, only songs.db

no, how do i do that? and what do i do with the stuff in the library zip, i unzipped it into a folder called library, is that right?

You don't need to touch any of that stuff.

ok i finally got it working but now it freezes when the match starts and the title of the song is showing, i read somewhere around here that this same problem happened to somebody else, what am i doing wrong?

 

[SalaComMander]

I didn't need to edit the thing? CRAP!!!

EDIT: Ok, so I downloaded it again and didn't edit the "edit_me_info_en.pac", but I still get that message: "A lot of uneeded information was left inside the info.pac"

 

[SalaComMander]

Theres nothing to fix about that. If you don't know what it means its not a problem.

It's not? Then why does the game still freeze after the loading screen? Doesn't this have anything to do with it?

 

[Dantarion]

No. The uneeded information refers to the other information that exists inside info.pac. In order to make the info.pac file the same size or smaller than the original, the program sometimes has to null out some of these strings in order to make the file compress better.

 

[SalaComMander]

So now I have the same problem, I just don't know why.

 

[Dantarion]

I think youre doing something wrong when editing songs.db.

 

[SalaComMander]

How? I'm using notepad++, I used your GUI, what could I possibly be doing wrong?

 

[Dai Tian]

One thing might be that you're using characters in your song titles that the game itself doesn't use. Look at the characters used in the game's song titles and then use only those when naming your own.

 

[Dantarion]

That too.
10char.

Also, if you use my BRSTM app, you dont need to create a songs.db, you can just use the songs.db that is generated by BCSM-GUI on exit

 

[SalaComMander]

The only "special" characters I use are the hyphen and the apostrophe. Also, I do use the songs.db that comes out of the GUI.

 

[Marth175]

That too.
10char.

where can i download your brstm app?

 

[Dantarion]

Look in my sig for links to everything ive done.

 

[SalaComMander]

Aaaaaaaaaauuuuuuuuuuugggggghhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[JoeGrandma]

I hate to be another problem and not a solution, but I'm having the same problem of Brawl freezing after it the "Now Loading" screen, and after I check songs.db, there are no strange characters (the only characters that I put are letters, numbers, and a few dashes). I've simply changed the titles of the songs and used the .exe; no changing any files. WAT'S WRONG (Is it the numbers?)

Wait... I don't think it's the numbers because there are already numbers in defaultsongs.db (i.e. Sector 1).

 

[Dantarion]

Might be a bug.

 

[kid craft 24/sonic master]

I'm not getting a file at all when i exit GUI for the song.db IDK whats the problem but also i get an error at times when sending them to my SD card then work fine IDK why it comes up as well as when i exit the program when my SD card is inserted. Is there anyway to fix this problem I've re-downloaded it multiple times.

 

[JoeGrandma]

Should I just post my songs.db word for word via copy and paste and then YOU can pick out the error?

Hmm... maybe that was a bit too much... sorry.

If you're using File Replacement Code 3.5 and not 3.5.1, does the info.pac freeze your Wii as soon as the "Now Loading" screen is finished(regardless of what characters you have in songs.db)?

 

[JoeGrandma]

If you're using File Replacement Code 3.5 and not 3.5.1, is your Wii going to freeze at the "Now Loading" screen, or some other time?

Or not at all?

Sorry for the double post.

 

[Affinity]

Is this program known to have problems with Vista? I can't run the exe for some reason.

Figured it out.

 

[DQP]

sounds great! can't wait to try it out XD

Even if you have a valid info.pac, your wii WILL FREEZE with 3.5, you NEED 3.5.1.

Also, I have an update. I figured out that mu_menumain.pac can be loaded by the SD loader, but it is loaded from....

/pfmenu2/mu_menumain.pac

 

[MK26]

and what exactly does that file do?

 

[smashbro29]

Ok, I got songs.db and the program ran successfully however I can't open it in notepad. help!!

 

[Dantarion]

Don't open it in notepad, use notepad++ or a real text editor.

 

[JoeGrandma]

So if I took info.pac and renamed it whatever the My Music .pac is supposed to be named and put it in the right folders, it's gonna work?

 

[STUFF2o]

This = Win

 

[Dantarion]

No. info.pac and mu_menumain.pac are different files.

 

[PanzerOceania]

Don't open it in notepad, use notepad++ or a real text editor.

wordpad works fine right?

 

[Dantarion]

I dont know.
Theres a bug in it where the program needs certain a certain line format due to bad programming on my part. Unfortunetly, most windows apps will overwrite the line ending with the windows default, which causes ALSTT to fail.

Wordpad might work, but Notepad++ WILL work.

 

[Alphatron]

I'm gonna try using this to edit my music titles. I avoided CSps and music title editing before because of wifi problems and the need to use that My music reset code. I won't have to worry about freezing with this, right?

I've never had freezing with this, so probably not. Btw, if you use Dantarion's BRSTM GUI, it generates a Songs.db with your modified titles for you.

 

[SalaComMander]

Yay, (if only...crap)

 

[Dantarion]

This only causes freezing in two ways.
1. You edit your songs.db weird, the program has a heart attack, or you use a FPC that isn't 3.5.1. The game will crash at "Now Loading".
2. You edit your songs.db fine, but you throw some weird *** characters in there. The game will crash whenever that title is displayed.

 

[JoeGrandma]

I overestimated how long "Any Length" really is...

For me, the game froze because "Pokemon Mystery Dungeon - Primal Dialga Battle" was too long...

Try to see if your song names are too long. Regardless of whether or not that's the problem, you should try to shorten them and use the longest default song name (I'm not sure what that is) as a sample size.

 

[SymphonicSage12]

I've had longer titles than that and no freezing happened.
