I've been using Assembly to try to disable the soundtrack in Halo 2, particularly for the cinematic cutscenes. I've had some level of success by unchecking all the flags for every in the music folder for cinematics. However, while it works for a lot of cutscenes, some of them still retain music from gameplay and others have gameplay music that starts mid cutscene. So I tried unchecking the flags for everything tagged under music in a scenario file hoping it would disable all soundtracks during both gameplay and cutscenes, however that seems to have no effect at all and the game still plays the soundtracks. Does anyone know of another way to disable the music or perhaps is there another place where the music is stored that I need to go to in Assembler to disable it?
I actually just figured it out yesterday. in addition to unchecking all the flags for music under script references in the scnr tag, you also have to null out all music references under lsnd tag as well.
Here's the result of my little no music project btw: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MEtVZbA1xJs
