    Title: How to Change Sound Drivers to S3 and back to s2


    Guide: Dracula


    About: How to change sound driver to S3 and back to s2 by pressing B at the level select menu.


    Credits: Esrael for S3 Sound Driver and Hitaxas for the fix.


    All you need is the Sonic 3 Sound Driver or ask Hitaxas for the sound driver fix.


    Look for return_9588 and add this:



    Code:
            btst	#4,d1
    
    	beq.w	+
    
    	cmpi.w	#0,d0
    
    	jsr	(SoundDriverLoad).l
    
    	btst	#4,d1
    
    	beq.w	+
    
    	cmpi.w	#$80,d0
    
    	beq.w	+
    
    	jsr	(S3_Sound_Driver).l
    +
    	rts

    Go to the level select menu and go to sound test and select any sound test number and press B to change the driver to s3. To change the sound driver back to s2, go to sound test number $80 and press B.

    Yes, but I think it would be harder than swapping some lines here and there. ;P
