Why they used Elminage III soundtrack?

[Net Sphere Engineer]

I don't have the game yet but after watching some gameplays of PSP and PC versions to know more about the series I could detect this game has a different soundtrack! Why they choose to do that????

Well at least there is a custom soundtrack option but it kind of sucks if you don't own the original soundtrack for the game or don't know where every song fit like battle song or town song :(

I'm not a fan of modding and change the game so I would love if possible or not wrong any kind soul could share the original Elminage ORIGINAL soundtrack for use in this version and make it close to the devs original work when I decide to get it!!

Afaik they did the same for 3ds version too. Apparently this soundtrack is considered to be higher quality/better, thab original music. No idea, but its pretty generic music in any case.

Well I kind of liked the original Elminage ORIGINAL soundtrack :) Also it makes no sense since if they release Elminage 3 here ppl would have to play with the same soundtrack hahahaha pretty strange decision!

Hope someone make a guide or something in how to bring back the Elminage ORIGINAL original soundtrack :) It can't be that hard!

I found this: https://www.zophar.net/music/playstation-portable-psp/elminage-original

Does the game uses those kind of names to identify where each song goes too? So in every Elminage a number 19 song would be for battle for example? Guess not right.

Still not the end of the world to use the soundtrack already in I just think it is curious to change soundtracks! I already saw a lot of bull of japanese games getting artwork cut and another things but sondtrack?

I hope they make the original Original soundtrack as maybe DLC. I'd love to also see some FACELOAD DLCs as well since I think there was a contest at one point in Japan to make some faces for at least one of the games.

Well if you take a look at the link I posted it is the entire soundtrack for the looks of it. All we need is someone that knows where the songs fit.

Also is it possible that they included the original soundtrack and more faces artwork hidden in the game files but no one bothered to look?

Well, tracks I'm sure of look like this:

It's safe to assume, that other dungeon and battle tunes (except for Dungeon 7, which uses the main theme) should match too.
Treasure: EL2BGM_32
I'm not sure about these ones, except for 26 and 28, which are certainly in place, but others fit this pattern, while 30 and 31 fit the mood:

Thus, basically, OST is restored.

[Net Sphere Engineer]

You got the soundtrack from the link or they already included the original one in the game files?

So the ones you did not replace were never changed like dungeon 2 for example?

[Adoru]

I got it from your link, on zophar.net, which, in fact, contains Elminage II OST.
Then I looked at videos of PS2 version from Youtube and Nicovideo.jp and figured out, where which track goes (until Dungeon 2 so far, but it seems like all the other battle and dungeon tracks go correspondingly).
The music for ending, which I hope to see eventually, was taken from this link, since it's different in Elminage I (although I prefer sounding of tracks from Elminage II, otherwise the same): https://www.zophar.net/music/playstation2-psf2/elminage-yami-no-fujo-to-kamigami-no-yubiwa

Great job man! :)

If you can you could create a guide or something. For now I will just keep this safe for when I get the game to play.

Thanks!

WOW thanks again! I really need to get into this kind of games and I really liked this Elminage so when I try the game I will be happy to use this awesome guide :)
