Hey guys, I'm kinda out of time lately I wish some people could play the latest version of the Hack and answer if the songs Loop, and also give your opinion on it, if there is something we can improve, or what we could do next or if it’s perfect the way it is, Thanks guys I’ll be waiting for the answers. Updated Rom - And i tested it, it's working fine. No. Songs don't loop yet. But I still have a few more options I can try. Old looping method doesn't always work (inserting "[" and "]" to mark loop points). I might be able to get around to it later today. The only songs that loop properly are the boss fight ones including Discolored Wall. I will try a new method each time until I get results. Gonna try inserting midi events another way (insert midi event "loop start" and "loop end") in place of brackets. If I run out of options, I will simply use what is closest. Thanks for updated rom. Will add changes to it from now on. Wish me luck.

YO!!! Finished! Here it is. All music in the rom has been fixed and LOOPS PROPERLY! YESSSSSS!!!!! AND..... I added more songs! Don't worry, I left the Entrance theme alone like you wanted. But now there are ALOT more songs to help make this memorable to Bloodlines, and a few other CV's that didn't get enough attention... SURPRISE! XD Oh and I think I figured out a way to add the flames to the Tome of Legend. Just take three still frames with the flame in a different position, and put each one on a different sprite in the weapon frame. Wallah! SUPERFIXED CVPoBL

Absolutely an amazing job!!! This now feels like a true sequel to Bloodlines!!! Well done my friend! I'm loving the music! But, and just a small but, Vampire Killer is missing parts to it. Was that intentional or a glitch?

Absolutely an amazing job!!! This now feels like a true sequel to Bloodlines!!! Well done my friend! I'm loving the music! But, and just a small but, Vampire Killer is missing parts to it. Was that intentional or a glitch? Haha! Thank You! I listened to each song through Nitro while I was replacing them. This way I could tell what changed in each one. I liked that this was essentially VK but with a slightly different sound. Meaning, the nostalgia was still present, while adding an element of "Sequel" to the song. Originally I was going to use the vanilla song. But after hearing it that way, I intentionally left it missing those parts, so it would feel like the remade versions of the other songs, like the Richter boss fight. I am glad I could work out the problems and make a soundtrack for this mod that was enjoyable for everyone. Due to the sheer lack of number of songs from the original Bloodlines game, I used rarely heard but still memorable songs from other CV games, like Riddle in City of Fools (also missing parts on purpose), and CV4 Basement Stage in Nest of Evil. The only song left untouched was the Castle Entrance for nostalgic purposes, which was requested by the mod's creator, Redpack. Keep in Mind, I could not have completed this without help from several other modders here. Serbagz was a big part of helping me figure out the looping issues. Others just gave me some insight or inspiration towards the project. Discussion for this wonderful idea from Redpack has gone back and forth for a while now. I am just happy to be a part of it.

Okay, I'm at Master's Chamber and I already beat the two lecardes, but I still don't beat the entire game for reasons that I will soon mention, before saying what happened I want to say how my experience with the hack is going. 1-Songs: Fantastic! StarWyvern did an AMAZING job with the songs, Vincent's new song made me have a good laugh (I don't know why lol) But the chief music of that headless horseman left me feeling puzzled, It seemed like that was going to be the music of the bosses, but ALL the other bosses in the game have a different song (and much much better) so far the only song I didn't like was from the Nation of Fools, I don’t know it didn’t match the stage and the theme. 2-Color palette: when I defeated the headless knight, the orb appeared, all ugly, strange and horrible, this because of the color palette that was altered so that the jewels had their color, this also affected the "HP / MP MAX UP "title, so I'll have to fix it, and thanks to the change in the item palette (Because of Tome of Legend) it ended up leaving several items and weapons with wrong colors, I'll also have to fix it. 3-Hellhound: His head that opens its mouth can be a little uncomfortable, but that's no problem and the only thing that bothered me was his square chest haha, I'll have to fix it. 4-Tome of Legend: I just have one thing to say, using the Vampire Killer with Charlotte using Eric's old spear is the most cute thing ever! it gave me a lot of nostalgia and a desire to play Castlevania Bloodlines! Now the problems: 4-Room of the paintings of Brauner: After purifying the lecards I went to the next room and the room is totally LAGGED AND SUPER SLOW I do not know how to fix it, and after entering a painting and leaving, it was totally black except for paintings, me on top, the Undulating Whip was gone! only had the Tome of Legend, which was very overpowered and I will have to fix it, and I want to know what damage rate I should put, I vote 84 damage equal to the Royal Sword. 5-Grand Cross: After trying to fight Richter and losing, I opened my inventory and saw that I had a new Sub-Weapon, the Grand Cross !! WHAT ?! Can someone please tell me how to fix the bug in the black and lagged room and what to do with the Grand Cross?

I don't know how to add free space overlay. It's probably why the rom file is so huge. With everything being added without overlay it just kept getting bigger and bigger.

Hey I saw what happened with Nation of Fools music. It wasn't supposed to sound like that. I will fix it shortly. It is supposed to be an arrangement of CV3 RIDDLE, but for some reason only the bass is playing in game. Maybe I imported the wrong one by mistake.
