I do believe Slalom has all ready been ripped by the great kingshriek.

I have a few more requests, which are not on any of the sites yet.

Superman
Volleyball
Hoops
Anticipation
Slalom

If you somebody can please rip these, I really would be grateful.

Thank you so much in advance.

I fixed Micky Mousecapades. 3 of the tunes were being put to memory, then being played from there. I really never expected that to happen.

I added the missing tunes to Bugs Bunny Crazy Castle. I changed the code a bit, so it would play the first note of the new tunes.

Ripped/added 'Anticipation'.

Updated listings in NSFList.txt

I think I fixed the error with kingshriek's 'Eggerland'. Someone else should check the rip I uploaded for accuracy.

Yeah, it's weird indeed to see a cartridge game load a chunk of music data into RAM. Urusei Yatsura does this as well (the music data is initially in CHR-ROM). Of course, in FDS games, having $6000-$DFFF as RAM, you'll see different chunks of music data loaded into a specific spot in RAM quite often.

Thanks a lot for the Eggerland fix. Sounds great to me. I updated my page with your fix as well.

I found another unripped N106 game - Namco's Sangokushi - Chuugen no Hasha. Like Namco Classic 2, the game barely uses the additional sound capabilities.

Sangokushi - Chuugen no Hasha NSF

I got a rip of Druid as well. For this, I extracted the music data through examinination of the disk image (files,headers) and have not played through the game to check the rip's completeness. I'm almost positive I got everything important at least (opening, levels, ending music).

Druid - Kyoufu no Tobira NSF

Because I'm no good at sports games, Abster will have to tell me if I found the missing bit of music for Bases Loaded 1. The remaining tracks all sounded like short sound effects to me, and I wanted to follow the caveats of NSF ripping. The new file has been uploaded.

I'm glad the Eggerland fix was right. I just made it cut half way into the play routine during init, into a point after the play routine changes the data.

Added Space Shuttle Project(not requested)

Wow, great updates from both of you!

kingshriek, many thanks for ripping Druid!Also, Sangokushi was a great suprise! The music is totally Sumurai! The Namco Classic NSFs were also completely new to me. Very good stuff.



ugetab, Anticipation and Mickey Mousecapades are sounding rad! Who knew!? You might be interested to know that Acticipation is labled another 'Bases Loaded 3' on your site.

Bases Loaded 1 is now good.

Added Frankenstein - The Monster Returns.
It's possible that it has missing songs, because I used a pre-coded song selector(instead of direct referencing, like some tunes used) to handle the songs, which was much easier than deducing and programming a complete table of information.

Ripped/Added Bases Loaded 4. I was convinced that I'd need to bank-switch to get this done, but it turned out to be pretty simple after I realized the issues were limited to Init(I copied the Music portion of memory with a few songs, and they played fine, regardless of banking, which meant the bank was likely the same for all songs. This was initially done to ensure that I had found the correct Play address.)

The problem with the Bases Loaded rip is that it lacks that pauses that the original game has when it switches screens. :)

Added fixed versions of Startropics 1 and 2. It removes the pop when tracks start, caused by writes to 4011 during Init. Also added Kirby's Adventure.

As for the bases loaded thing, I'm not concerned with delayed starts unless is makes the music different.

Hey, I wrote some NSF/NSFE conversion tools a while back. I should release a tool for merging an updated NSF rip with a previous NSFE tagged version (or does NotSo Fatso make this easy to do?). That would make it easy to keep the NSFE rips in sync. Except of course that the NSFE site requires an administrator to babysit it (we need an automatic NSF/NSFE site that automatically updates!).

Thanks for those updates ugetab. Since you added the author of Kirby's Adventure, I thought you might like to know the authors of the Startropics games. The composer of Startropics is Y. Hirai and for Startropics 2, T. Kumegawa and Y. Hirai.
