SRB2 Forums, I present to you... "Project: Genesis", or "Project: Mega Drive" if you live in Europe or Japan. This mod, created by me with some assistance from Blake Parker (a.k.a. Metal Blake), replaces all of the music currently being used in SRB2 with a Sega-Genesis-styled soundtrack. All of the tracks (all of mine at least) have been remade using FL Studio with the Ultimate Megadrive soundfont.

All of the OGGs in this mod have been loop pointed and tested properly to make sure that the music and the sound blending is good and that they loop at the correct points. Also, all of the Sonic 1/2/3/3D tunes that are in SRB2 have been replaced with VGZ tracks since they are good quality and don't take up too much space. Kudos to the developers for adding VGM/VGZ support!

The current version is 2.1b. When the game gets updated, this mod will be updated as well to make sure that any tracks that were previously unused will get remade.

First patch released! If you haven't downloaded Genesis.wad yet, then you will only have the changed tracks if you only download the patch. Make sure you download the main wad AND any patches released if you want to stay up to date. Main releases such as the future v2.2, however, will have all the previously released patches applied to the main wad.

Changelog:

Welcome to Releases!

This is a split archive using 7-zip compression. Most computers will need a third party program, such as 7-zip, to open it. In the case of my example, open 7-zip and navigate to the files, and open one of them to have 7-zip open the entire combined archive and get the wad.

This is an okay music wad for a music wad using a genesis soundfont and midis, everything sounds decent except DSZ2, That one hurts.

I love messing with flstudio and soundfonts to change midis like that, it's cool you ended up doing the whole soundtrack, that would take a lot of time! I remember for a while I was working on a wad like this one, except it was 8 bit music (combination of NES and GB soundfonts) but I thought for sure it wouldn't get accepted, so I stopped. Now that this was approved, I think I might go ahead on that :)

Anyway, I'm loving these tracks! You should totally release this in MP3 form if you can, cause I'd love to listen to these, not just in-game
 
Heh. Ditto on having FL Studio and doing the exact same thing with MIDIs and soundfonts and such. I had this same concept a few months before I joined the MB. Glad to see this saw the light

FOOLS!
FOOLS EVERYWHERE
PEOPLE USE HJSPLIT to combine these files into one big file
and then open the combined file and then use the combined wad from the combined file.
 
HUGE nitpick, I can't even open the files with WinRAR, I've tried renaming it and it says that, the files are either damaged or unable to open. Please, in future, just use a single zip/rar/7z file. It makes things so much easier. (Don't rename the file type either, please.)


EDIT: Nevermind, I was able to access it somehow, so I dunno what the other files are for.

YOU NEED TO COMBINE THEM USING HJSPLIT WHAT THE HECK!
if you don't you will have corrupted/incomplete wad!
Note that wad is over 100mb!
you can't send wads this big to SRB2MB servers.
but they always could use dropbox/mediafire/mega/other file sharing website to download the intire file
 
This doesn't work at all for me. None of this has helped and HJSplit doesn't work. Why not simplify to a .zip file?
 
Sheesh, calm down all of you. Just extract it all into a folder and it'll compile itself when you open the first part.
EDIT: or nvm Prime added it into his post so read that

This wad is more of a hit-and-miss btw. I like most of them, like the act clear jingle and ACZ. But some aren't exactly great to listen to, such as ERZ as it's incredibly quiet and AGZ for being the opposite.
 
The mastering could use some work at times, yeah.

The files are not all one attachment because of the attachment filesize limit. It had to be split into multiple attachments to fit.
 
To be clear (since it looks like you removed the mediafire link after putting the attachments back) having an off-site mirror is fine, you just need to have all files also be uploaded as attachments.
 
But who's to judge

I'd reaaally love to have all these available as files that aren't already inserted into the game.
 
Not too bad, I would keep playing with some of the songs to find better balance between all of the instruments.

Props for making a full remix soundtrack though, better than I can say for myself :U
 
Beautiful Remaster of the music; just put into a Genesis standpoint.

I have to admit, this mod is extremely good. When I first downloaded it, I was excited to wonder what it would sound like, and when it finished downloading, I would've listened to the tracks. Then I realized how much of a masterpiece this project was.

Some of the tracks could be better, but all-in-all, 10/10.
