Fixing Startropics
IPS patch: http://rainwarrior.ca/projects/nes/star ... ic_fix.ips
NSF: http://rainwarrior.ca/projects/nes/star ... ic_fix.nsf
Source: http://rainwarrior.ca/projects/nes/star ... ic_fix.zip
NSF of original soundtrack for comparison: http://rainwarrior.ca/projects/nes/startropics.nsf
The source is probably of interest to the NESDev crowd. I made a fully labelled disassembly, and documented the process a bit. Anyone looking to hack StarTropics' music should have all the info they need right at hand with this. I suppose you could even borrow its music engine if you wanted (but it's really limited, maybe not great to use, possibly fun as a challenge).
The NSF of the original soundtrack is a new rip I made built from the disassembly to prove I had done it correctly. It's not significantly different than the existing NSF rip of StarTropics, but it doesn't have unused data stripped out.
