#

also am making these to be used on the switch version can i just use the pc modding tools ?

You can edit bmd files either with Atlus Script Compiler or PersonaEditor (both linked in #1062391126897729646)
If you go with Script Compiler it'll decompile into a msg file which is just plaintext that you can edit and recompile by putting it back through Script Compiler, with PersonaEditor you can directly edit it (although you can't add new lines with it)

#

Yeah, the files are the same between pc and switch, tools that work on one should work on the other

#

It should work fine with bmds, bfs can have problems but I'd be kinda surprised if bmds did

#

Also, if you do want to just edit text for bfs you can extract the bmd with PersonaEditor, decompile that, edit it, and then replace it with PersonaEditor. Then the actual bf code shouldn't be touched at all

am trying to make it so that when i wear a specific outfit the ambush and non ambush bgm changes

Oh, that'd be more than editing bmds then, bmds are just text. I'm not really sure how you'd do that...

#

i tried to understand it by just opening the bmd in notepad++

#

it looks like they added
(BGM: Battle A2, Battle B2)
after the protag item description

#

Yeah, that's just text

#

yeah but thats just fluff description stuff

#

It has nothing to do with the actual music playing

#

you gotta rebuild the acb/awb using sdk

#

or use ace

#

ok am trying to figure ace rn

#

am tryin to just drag the mp3 on the prebuild but thats not it, how can i read more on this

#

and am dragging an acb onto AcbEditor.exe but that creates a new folder with 3 .adx files now ??

#

its a dead link

#

okay using AtomENCD i got my 3 adx files done

#

how can i compress them into 2 acb/awb files ?

#

ookaaay using AWB Tools i got my 3 tracks to compress from 3 adx files into 1 awc file

#

but no acb ?
