Soundtrack Differences

This is a sub-page of Proto:Spyro the Dragon (PlayStation)/July 11th, 1998 build.

Many levels in this version use different tracks to the final release - at this stage of development, only 8 tracks had been implemented, contrasting with the earliest release revision's 34 (plus 8 bonus tracks).

The STR files storing the game's music are totally different to the ones in the final release. In this build, the tracks are in the order they are used in-game (meaning there are a number of duplicate tracks), whereas the final release orders them roughly in order of their size.

Notably, due to a mistake in the track data array, each of the tracks used in Beast Makers will loop after 2 minutes and 4 seconds - the length of Stone Hill's theme.

Differences#

The intro to the Peace Keepers theme is only 2 bars in length as opposed to the final's 12 bars. All tracks are in stereo quality in this version, whereas many of them in the final have both stereo channels output the same tracks.
