    A while back, I posted about some unused sound data in Sonic 1. A lot of people asked me to look at Sonic 2/3 to see if there was anything interesting. On the subject of Sonic 2, it was difficult to find unused data as the sound driver changed significantly for the final version so that the unused sound data can't be located the same way I was able to for Sonic 1. However, the Simon Wai prototype still uses something similar to the Sonic 1 driver (I think?) and so I could find unused sound data in that version. If I recall, the only thing I was able to find were unused voices (instruments) in many of the songs. I might go back to revisit Sonic 2, but for now I wanted to focus on Sonic 3 since that game holds a lot of oddities in the sound data.

    However, I need help this time. Sonic 3 changed the sound format a little but and so it makes things a bit harder to manipulate/interpret without investing time which I don't really have anymore. I'm pointing out the data that I find so that hopefully someone with more knowledge and time can see what the data actually is.

    The impression that I get when looking at the sound data for Sonic 3 is that the process for programming the music became more streamlined, possibly for the relatively new people who hopped on board the SEGA SOUND TEAM. As such, I suspect that at this point tools were created to make converting common tracker/midi formats easier. In comparison to the early Mega Drive titles, where it was likely that many of the games were sequenced using macro'd assembler. The reason for bringing this up is due to the fact that using such tools can introduce common intricacies that rear up in every song. As such, the most common thing that I noticed when looking at the sound data this time around is that there are many instances where a "cfStopTrack" command ($F2) is issued but never called because the music will call "cfJumpTo" ($F6) before it occurs. Many, but not all, songs do this which is interesting. I believe this might've been a leftover from the conversion tools that were used, or part of some asm macro that included the cfStopTrack after certain jumps by default. So, instead of noting where there are unused cfStopTracks (because it would take me forever and aren't that interesting), I will note when songs don't have any unused cFStopTracks at all.

    With that out of the way, let's begin.
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    (Note: I'm going to go by when the sequence data itself appears in the ROM. It's interesting to note the order in which the data is presented in the ROM. All offsets are based on Sonic 3 stand alone. All unused bytes were found using BizHawk so there's always room for error. I believe in some cases my script might be off by one byte so I'll try to include the last marked byte where possible (which will be labeled with the "Z80 Data" comment). I'll try to interpret most of the data by hand, but for the most part I'll be leaving it as raw byte code).

    No other unused data aside from unused cfStopTrack calls.

    8.) (06) Marble Garden Zone Act 2 - 0xCD97B
    No other unused data aside from unused cfStopTrack calls.

    9.) (08) Carnival Night Zone Act 2 - 0xCDDA9
    Yeah, Act 2's sound data comes before Act 1. Weird. There's only one unused cfStopTrack in the whole song. Maybe this song was programmed manually instead of converted?

    A partially used cfModulation call? cfModulation uses four 1 byte parameters, but for some reason here only the first and last byte are used. The 1 and the 5 are unused.
    Code (ASM):
    1. ROM:000CDDD9                 dc.b $F0                ; Z80 Data

    5. ROM:000CDDDD                 dc.b 4                  ; Z80 Data

    Unused notes? $F9 is a cfJumpReturn (which takes no parameters) which is used, but it precedes byte $C2 which is marked used as well for some reason (I believe this was a mistake with Bizhawk). What follows the $C2 is unused. If the bytes are notes, I added what I think the music notation correlates to as well as the duration.

    No other unused data aside from unused cfStopTrack calls.

    12.) (0a) Flying Battery Zone Act 2 - 0xCF189
    No other unused data aside from unused cfStopTrack calls.

    13.) (1a) Doomsday Zone - 0xCF6F0
    Not sure why Doomsday Zone's data appears here. Perhaps the size left remaining in the other banks was an issue?
    No other unused data aside from unused cfStopTrack calls.

    14.) (0c) Ice Cap Zone Act 2 - 0xD0000
    Another instance where Act 2's data appears before Act 1. Weird.
    No unused data whatsoever. Not even an unused cfStopTrack call, suggesting this might've been programmed by hand.

    15.) (0b) Ice Cap Zone Act 1 - 0xD06AA
    No unused cfStopTrack calls, suggesting this might've been programmed by hand.
    Two partially unused cfModulation calls. cfModulation requires four 1 byte parameters, but only the first one is used. Everything is set to 0 though.

    36.) (20) Azure Lake - 0xD99F7
    No other unused data aside from unused cfStopTrack calls.

    37.) (21) Balloon Park - 0xDA4FD

    This song has a huge chunk of unused data. This seems to be related to one of the PSG channels. Again, this follows after a used cfStopTrack but for some reason BizHawk marked the byte after the cfStopTrack as used. I'm not sure if all of this is note data or if there's some voice data thrown in.

    AMPS

    I don't think this is a likely case, as there is no reason for an automated tool to insert these artifacts into the sequence data. Indeed, it is far more likely that the music programmers used stop and jump commands to test the music in production stage, make sure it will loop correctly, and that everything will sound alright, and simply never went to remove the extra commands. This was a very common occurrence in Mega Drive titles, so much so that from the songs I've converted from game to another, I see this more often than not. And much unlike GEMS, SMPS was not designed to work with common formats (at the time), such as MIDI. I find it most likely sound programmers made the music by hand, and this is why you can find these unused oddities in the first place.

    Something that might help you in continued research though, is SMPS2ASM. These should help you with research to the actual tracker code, rather than having to look at hex dumps.

    Double posting because I wanted to share this (so it doesn't get lost in the big post).

    Alternate Ending to the Sonic 3 Staff Credits

    So I looked into the unused sequence data for the Sonic 3 credits because I was genuinely curious what it was. I went in the ROM and changed the cFJumpTos that come before the unused bytes at 000DE5D7, 000DE857, and 000DE9C0 so that it jumps right to the unused sequencing data. I didn't modify the other sections, although I probably should have to see if it sounded any different. After the song loops once, this additional ending gets added. It might sound like it works, but it messed up a few seconds into the second loop so it's not exactly correct. I still don't know if this is actually how it's supposed to sound or if there's something missing, but it's definitely unused. :)/>

    Hmm, I didn't think about that but it makes a lot more sense.


    Woah this is great, thanks! This would've saved me a few hours. :P

    Very neat find with the Sonic 3 staff credits. I like that transition!

    When I first heard that, I thought, "oh wow, there's actually an ending to the tune?", but then it looped.

    Could you modify the other sections to let us know how it sounds?

    I gave it a try with SMPS2ASM and MDMusicPlayer.

    I modified the asm by eliminating the jumps and just leaving the unused parts as is. It still doesn't sound exactly right because I don't know what's meant to be there and what's there for some other reason (for testing, etc). One thing to note, the song will repeat a bar after the unused section instead of looping the song like it does originally. It looks like the unused calls/jumps were put there to loop that section of the song specifically, so I don't know if that was meant for testing or if the song was originally supposed to loop just that bar forever after the unused section.

    I already checked S2. The credits music has a small section that I couldn't make sense of, but there's not much else. There's nothing hidden in S1/S2's SFX either.

    Anyhow, I figured I'd clarify a few SMPS things:
    • Saying S2 Simon Wai's driver is more like S1's driver is a bit of a stretch. It's just S2 Final's driver without compression support, and a few tiny S1 features/bugs left in.
    • I don't think SMPS music ever stopped being hand-written. There's a Sega Pico SDK floating around that actually contains an SMPS driver, and all its music is in macro'd ASM format. There are no tools in the SDK to convert anything. The ASM music also looks hand-edited: there's an inconsistent number of values per dc.b, cfModulation parameters aren't consistent, and parts are commented-out.

    On the subject of unused music stuff, this has been found before but I figure it'd be nice to keep it centralised here: Azure Lake has a section that uses an instrument that doesn't exist. It probably makes it inaudible.

    It's weird. With a number that high, you'd think it was maybe trying to use an instrument from the Universal Voice Bank, but even that tops out at $22.

    That reminds me, Chaotix has a similar issue too: 'Have Some Fun' tries to use a PSG envelope that doesn't exist. Heck, speaking of Chaotix, one song has three of its PWM channels dummied out.

    Hehe, I posted about the Azure Lake one almost seven years a go from the date. The other interesting thing about that is that the part that's using the instrument number that doesn't exist actually exists in the PC port's midi file. Which was one of the reasons why I thought they might've used a conversion tool, at least to help speed things a long. Since having the notes there in the PC port's midi file might mean they had something to use as reference in making the PC port, either the original midi files before conversion (which was what I assumed even back then) or they just looked at the handwritten .asm data.

    Speaking of weird PSG stuff, so that Balloon Park data. I didn't realize that the third PSG channel goes completely unused in the song, even though it has data!

    There's a command in the beginning of the channel to stop the channel before it plays anything. Removing the smpsStop will allow the data in the channel to play but it sounds almost inaudible. It seems to change PSG3 into a noise channel with parameter E7 and tries to play something that resembles percussion but it doesn't sound good at all. I removed the cfSetPSGNoise command just to see when/where the sequence data plays in the song, and came up with this:

    https://tinyurl.com/y872jfqm
    https://tinyurl.com/ycgfk5zd <- the original psg3

    I looked at the PC collection's midi file for this song just in case it might appear there, but it doesn't. Very weird.

    Sorry about the bump, but there's another song on the s3k soundtrack that suggests that they had some sort of very basic tool for converting songs to SMPS format -- Chrome Gadget.

    What makes me think this, is that while the DAC and PSG3 channels are nice and optimised, with heavy use of loops and calls for repeated sections, the data for every other channel is from start to finish "note,note length" bytes over and over, even when it seems it'd be a no-brainer that if a person was typing all of this out they'd use the loop coordination flag.

    So my theory is that there was some sort of automated tool (that wasn't necessarily used all the time), that could be used to convert songs from some other format to a SMPS asm file, that would spit out pretty badly optimised data that would then be fixed up by hand, and they ran out of time to fix this one song up. The song even feels kind of rushed from a mixing standpoint, with the brass chords being way louder than the actual lead instrument, and that nice little solo that plays on PSG2 just before the song loops but it's almost inaudibly quiet.

  10. Double post; uploaded original ASM file so people can record a higher-quality rip than Kega.

    Sounds like the song is having a stroke now. Shame we don't have the original tape of the recording(probably never will happen) before they converted it into Genesis format since it's so weird.

    I would love to hear a version of this used in the segment of Act 2 where the lights are out. As if everything is off-kilter, lol.
     
  14. Wondering if anyone can get the unused data to sound correct.
