Playlist Editor / Scratch That Song Limit

YourSoul1sMine

YourSoul1sMine

Hello, everyone. So, for some context, I've been adding additional song tracks in my mod project called "Saints Row 2: Sound Tracks of the Row" for Xbox 360 (RGH/JTAG) and Xenia. And, I successfully added 79 additional songs and 1 additional genre for the Playlist Editor (MY RADIO 85.5), and Scratch That without no errors. However, I have encountered an error where I added a couple of additional songs to my additional genre and when I selected the additional genre in Playlist Editor (MY RADIO 85.5), the game crashes. I'm wondering if there's a limit of how many songs you can add for Playlist Editor (MY RADIO 85.5), and purchase in Scratch That. Any information will be greatly appreciated. Also, I will add photos, videos, and additional files if I can on here of the error.

i can only speak for pc modding, so I may be wrong, but every change that you make to the game affects the memory requirement and it may just be that there is too much music, or atleast too many store entries have been added.

When you say added new songs, do you mean that you added brand new music to the game, or do you mean that you have repurposed other tracks and added new entries for them to Scratch That?

If you added new music to the game, what method did you use? Replacement of existing music or adding a new xwb?

Lastly did you check your music_store.xtbl for
errors? Even a tiny error can mess with the game.

If everything seems to be correct in your file
remove the entry for the new genre and start a new game, then play for a while and if no crashes then re-add the new genre with less music and start a new game again.

I know this a tedious step but it is one of the best ways to determine if the music is causing memory issues.

Hello. To answer your questions, the first one is I added brand new music to the game. No replacement/swapping unless it's an extended version or a remix version of the same song. The second one is 2 methods. I added new .xwbs, and .xsbs. And utilized existing .xwbs, and . xsbs to add brand new music to them and changing on how the sound cues are played in the audio_boot.idx_map. And the last question is, yes. There seems to be no errors in the music_store.xtbl. However, I did have errors when I added too many characters for a Artist Name in the music_store.xtbl previously and it made the game crash. So, I'm going to attach some files and perhaps you can examine them if you wish.

Looking at the files now. If I had to guess I would say that there are just too many entries in the music_store.xtbl but I won't know for sure without
doing some testing.

Do all of your radio stations play correctly? That includes any new radio stations that you have added.
If they are playing correctly is there any missing music?
 
Yeah, I thought that it could be exceeding the limit in entries. And, yes, all of my radio stations play correctly and there are no missing song tracks in those radio stations. I'm going to attach my radio.xtbl here.
