Song Upload Guidelines

This page will help you uploading a song to the song hacks page while respecting the upload standards for this section.

The zip archive you upload in `ff3:ff3us:music:songdata` must contain at least a SPC file of the song (.spc), the song data file (.bin) and an instrument file (.bin). You can add extra files relevant to that song (such as alternate versions or a MML file).

All 3 files must have same name as zip archive, to the exception that you must add “_data” to the song data filename and “_inst” to the instrument filename. The archive name must be all lowercase and no space (use underscore). If you add extra file, keep the name and add something to the filename in the same way it is done for the instrument or data files.

Each file name must start by the game abbreviation, see the list below. In case of a duplicate entry, use at end of filename the author code (see other list below).

The mp3 preview you add in `ff3:ff3us:music:songdata:preview` must respect the song filename (as close as possible). FYI, you can convert SPC files to WAV then to MP3. It is suggested to upload 128kbps MP3s, or V5-V6 if you use VBR.

To use for duplicate entries.
