Greetings to you, whom I ask to assist me in solving this little problem I'm having with editor.exe when compiling a new .sdat file.

This is the problem:



As you can see, instead of assigning the Bank folder and Sequence Archive into their correct locations, editor.exe swaps them around, so Bank is in SSAR and Sequence Archive goes into SBNK. In this state, importing the compiled .sdat file simply mutes my entire ROM. This is always what made my music hacking attempts fail, as this has occured with every computer I have ever used to hack NSMB with, so I must conclude that I am extremely unlucky or am doing something wrong.

So I ask, what's the problem here? Is there a reason editor.exe is doing this? Has anybody else had this problem? What can I do to fix this?

All I did was replace one .sseq file. "BGM_SELECT.sseq", aka the Title Screen. I haven't done anything else to the extracted sound_data folder.

In fact, all I have to do is extract a clean .sdat with editor.exe and rebuild it using the same clean sound_data files. It will still break the game's music. This has to be a problem with editor.exe.

That seems to be working now. Now the only problem is that my .sseq file is horribly out of time. But thanks for the help.
