NSF Ripper Guide Updated
« on: April 01, 2008, 07:01:49 AM »
This post is for those that enjoy ripping and messing with NSFE files.

I have just updated the document originally written by Izumi,  translated and expanded by yours truly.  I have just added levels 13 - 17,  that's five new levels to read.

At some point in the future I'm planning on writing an NSFE section on my document as I believe the extended format should be mentioned.  However, the rest of the levels must be completed first.

Those that read this document,  let me know if something is inaccurate or out of place.  Some of the things written were done at 5AM in the morning.

Also, I have some new NSF rips for download.

NSFE, NSF (E)xtended format. A format that was invented by Disch, to extend the format originally created by Kevin Horton. A NES music format file that has been extracted from a NES ROM, for playback in a NSF player or emulator that has a NSF player implemented.  No NSF player will play a NSFE format file unless they have implented the format.

NSFE has additional information compared to the original NSF format, such as track names, timed, ripper name, fadeout (I think). I'm about to read up more on the format soon. NSFE is a dynamic chunked file format, from what I can tell so far.

NSF (Nintendo Sound Format) is the extension of the file and what most if not all people call them now days.  A NES music format file that has been extracted from a NES ROM, for playback in a NSF player or emulator that has a NSF player implemented.

The actual name of the format is called NESM (Nintendo Entertainment System Music).

Oh, cool.

How/where do you learn these types of things? It just seems so... ... ... like you'd never find this out reading a book, kind of thing.
