I am lost (Solved)

I finally made the switch to AMK. There were just too many good songs to pass up. I actually ended up doing an almost complete cleanout of my original music. Anyway, the problem I was having was after I ran AMK, my hack went to a blank screen after displaying the Nintendo Presents screen. I was able to fix this by running the old AddMusic for just the overworld and submap portion. The problem is that, by doing this, I am no longer able to change the music played during the "princess is rescued" scene or the end credits. Is there a way around this? Could I possibly just change a bit in hex? If so, what would I change it to? Now that I think about it, I think I change a bit somewhere in order to change the title screen music... Is there any solution without starting from scratch? I would rather not have to start over as I have been working on this for over four years. Thank you for the help in advance.

Not even if you change the music in the Addmusic_list.txt? 25-28 is what you wanna change. Is that not working for you? I can't imagine why it'd do that, are you using the latest AMK? AMK as far as I know is compatible with all known patches, so I don't think it's a patch you have (tho I could be wrong).

I also have a hack that's been in the works for 4 years. It can't be stressed enough that you should always keep back ups. Keep one rom that has all your Lunar Magic edits, keep backups of your levels, backups of your GFX and ExGFX, keep backups of you hex edits in an asm file, keep backups of your asm patches, sprites, music, etc (essentially, you have a disassembly of you hack in parts). If it comes to having to do it by scratch (or even not), I'd advice you to start doing this as of now.

Actually, I am mistaken. It was one of my backups that had different music. I ran AMK on a different backup and still got the black screen. Running the old AddMusic doesn't fix it, it makes it worse. The ROM becomes unusable.

EDIT: I think I'd be better off changing that bit back. I just can't remember what bit or what it was set at...

You can just port to a new ROM. It may be a bit of trouble, but it'll be worth it, being able to use AMK.
That's probably what I'll have to do. Is there any way I can save my overworld? I just finished everything on layer 2 like a week ago.

Open your new ROM in the LM window you opened the overworld editor in and save a change to the overworld from the other ROM in the new one.
I don't think I understand what you mean. If I'm using a fresh ROM, I give it the same name as the other? Or, do you mean having two lunar magics open, then doing as you said?

I was asking because I can't get it to work. I've tried it like 10 times.

Open your hack hack in lunar magic, click #lm{ow}, now, leave the Overworld window open, click back to Lunar Margic, click file, new, open new ROM and your new rom will open in Lunar Magic, go back to your Overworld window that was left open (don't click #lm{ow}), make a small change and press #lm{save}.

Thank you so much. Worked like I charm. I apologize about my previous comment. I misunderstood what was said. Now I can enjoy some AWESOME AMK music in my hack!
