This is stunning. Could you tell us which method you used when converting/editing the files? I mean did you use VBR or CBR, are there any 1-3 second silences inserted in the music file? Did you create .SNR and .SNS or only a .SNR? Did you do any Hex editing to those files? I'll definitely find this information useful.


Most of the tracks have been copied directly from the PS3 version of the game. Since the consoles appear to use the same format for songs and music as the PC, the game immediately recognized the files and played them correctly. Ever Seen This, Santa Rosa, and Diesel came from higher-quality album releases, rather than from the console game itself; these tracks are encoded as a single SNR resource, which, for some reason, transitions properly to the next song where the two file method does not.

In both cases, no hex editing was necessary aside from making the necessary AUDTUNs, and I have not noticed any instability in my testing.

Hello. Thank you very much for your work. It is amazing. I just wanted to ask you a question. I don't know if it is possible but I would like to ask if there's a way to do a playlist with the Jukebox from Showtime with custom songs that the player put in the Custom Music Folder. I tried to make a playlist but I only could use the songs given by the game. Is there any way to do it?

An overhaul of the jukeboxes and MP3 players (and a lot of things from Showtime, really) is something I've been thinking of doing for a while now. No promises, but it's on my extraordinarily long to-do list

Hi, There seems to be an issue with one of the songs in ''Pop'' The stereo goes silent sometimes, There must be a song that is causing it. I keep the stereo on for an hour and after it plays most of the songs (or sometimes sooner because it's randomized mostly) It goes quiet, Pressing ''Forward or backwards'' it is still silent. The only way to fix it is turning off the stereo or changing the station. It could be to do with the Bitrate of one of the songs. Could you please investigate? Cheers.
