MOTHER 3 HQ Audio Patcher, v1.3.2
THE MOTHER 3 HQ SOUND MIXING PATCHER
An easy-to-use, all-in-one hub for improving the audio quality of your copy of MOTHER 3!
WHAT'S NEW IN VERSION 1.3.2?
- A bug where the sample rate menu wouldn't allow you to select from all available rates for ROMs with a Japan patch has been fixed
- An overlapping keyboard shortcut in the Brazilian Portuguese translation has been fixed (Alt+A to open a ROM; Alt+P to patch a ROM)
- The disclaimer window no longer has scroll bars with the French translation
- In case the patcher encounters a problem when viewing its mixer's source code, the "loading monospace fonts" popup no longer freezes
DISCLAIMERS
FOR EVERYONE:
You may hear occasional popping in-game after patching your ROM, for example while saving your game. Throughout 100+ hours of testing, these same pops were heard while playing the original Japanese release, making us fairly confident this hack isn't the cause. It's possible these audio glitches were covered up by the original mixer's background noise and are now easier to hear with clearer audio. Please don't hesitate to report any bugs, but just keep in mind there's only so much you can do with the GBA's limitations!
FOR SPEEDRUNNERS:
If your ROM is a Fan Translation, this patch does modify the RNG used by MOTHER 3 and will most likely give you unexpected results!
Because of that, any TAS recordings of MOTHER 3 will be broken by this hack. You have been warned!!
PATCHER FEATURES
- 100% compatibility with ALL Fan Translations! [versions 1.2 and below will cause occasional slowdowns with this hack, regardless of the language]
- Compatible with the original Japanese release of MOTHER 3
- Compatible with other ROM hacks, such as Claus' Journey [this is an EXPERIMENTAL feature; be aware of potential bugs!!]
- Customize your game's sample rate for higher-quality sound effects, including Lucas' clean electric guitar during battles
- Save backup copies of your game before patching
- Easily undo/remove the HQ sound patch from your game
- Read the source code behind this patch
- Windows, macOS, and Linux support (64-bit only)
