Guide: How to Change Music in GGXX Games (PS2)

@PimUigi+magz: I said this a long time ago, ACData.bin is most likely the file that has the Announcer samples, if you know of any sort of binary byte interleave editor that can mess with that format (read: unzip and replace files), then it's possible, otherwise, so far, no means.

@UltimaOriginal: Getting stuff to be the exact size doesn't necessarily mean timestamp length, it could also be the kind of compression you're using for the WAVE file. Also, this isn't always a perfect process and in my case it often took me several test runs before I actually got it to work, so don't be afraid to make the ISO a couple times. Just don't burn any CDs until you know it's gonna work for sure.

@Teyah: Don't be a dick. :E I've seen ways of editing CSOs on PSPMod forums. CSOs aren't different from ISOs, they just use a different compression method. I could probably edit BlazBlue's tracklisting if I knew the compression, they did it with Dissidia already.

I know this is an old topic, but thanks a bunch for this, Teyah. I just got done making my Custom OST Accent Core+ yesterday thanks to this guide you made. Hopefully it'll give the local scene a bit more incentive to get into Guilty Gear, and help any videos I upload of them stand out. Thanks again. :]

Some of the tedious steps here can be done a lot more easily, and probably a bit more reliably at the same time. I can PM you the details, since I'm not quite sure on the forum policy when talking about this kind of thing.

I am really sorry regarding this bump, but I have to say that doing the "dummy" part of the ISO does not make the game work at all; in fact, it freezes before the Sammy logo animation appears. This whole tutorial works without messing around with the dummies.

The reason it crashes is because the game checks to see if the disc is the same size as what's listed in the game's directory files. If you're using something like Open PS2 Loader, this isn't really a problem. Otherwise, yeah if you're using a burned ISO and using a swap-disc method, yeah you need those dummy files.
