OFF Remake: Restored
A downloadable mod for Windows
MOD STATUS: Bug fixes are currently underway.
My, the mods are starting to pile up, aren't they?
This mod replaces the music of the OFF Remake with the music of the original 2008 game, composed by Alias Conrad Coldwood.
Also includes the old SFX and voiceclips of the 2008 game if you miss those sweet RTP sounds, though this is an optional install.
Looks like this is as close to "restored" as we can get...
INSTALLATION
STEP 1 - Locate Game Installation
You can do this through steam by right clicking your game in your library, hovering over 'Manage', then clicking 'Browse Local Files'.
STEP 2 - Copy .assets files
To implement the old SFX, Copy the offmod.resource file and .assets files to your OFF_Data folder, located in the game installation.
If asked to overwrite existing .assets files, which you will be, do so.
You can also just rename the old ones if you want to.
STEP 3 - Copy .bundle file
To implement the old music, navigate to the following path: "OFF\OFF_Data\StreamingAssets\aa\StandaloneWindows64".
Here, you'll have to drop the new .bundle file in. Once again, you can either replace or just rename the old one. It doesn't really matter.
VERSIONS
In case you find the old SFX a little jarring (which is understandable), there are two versions of this mod you can choose from.
V1 - Original music, voicelines, and ALL original SFX.
V2 - Original music, voicelines, and LIMITED SFX changes.
(this'll be up later.)

hello, i found that the mod loops, or at least has issues with this parts:
1. Sometimes when trying to access zone 0, it enters a loading loop and doesn't let you enter, forcing you to quit the game
2. on residential zone (zone 2), the battles loop infinitely.
3. during most of the extra fights, their tracks get interrupted and don't play. i assume its because they aren't in the original ost and the mod doesn't know whaT TO REPLACE THEM WITH (MINOR ISSUE TBH)
4. IN THE EXTRA FIGHT AGAINST PSALMANAZER AND HERODOTUS (PURIFIED ZONE 3), THE BATTLE LOOPS INIFITELY AS WELL.
I couldn't even start the game with it installed, that's how much I was dealing with the first problem. Had to start it up without the mod installed just to get the game going.
will be working on bug fixes when i have the time
I'm having an issue at the residetial zone where the song that's suppoosed to play when the phantoms invade it doesn't. It just keeps playing the zone 2 song.
THE BATTLES THERE ALSO GET LOOPED TO THE POINT WHERE YOU HAVE TO TAKE THE MOD OUT, BEAT THEM WITHOUT THE MOD AND THEN PUT IT BACK IN:(
Hello, is it ok if I repost this mod on steam guides with credits?
Absolutely!
after i installed the mod the game began crashing after you kill hugo, showing a loading wheel and just softlocking indefinitely
does anyone know why this might be happening?
Starting to think this game doesn't like being modded. Someone had a softlock problem in zone 2, but if you got to hugo I assume that didn't happen for you..?
i had a savefile past zone 2 i was using after i installed the mod so i’m not sure
gonna test both this and the battle loop issue. I'm not really sure why this is a thing, but I have a few things I can try that might fix the issue.
There seems to be a bug which causes the zone 2 residential district fights to never end.
Would you be able to elaborate? That sounds like more of an issue with the game itself rather than a music mod...
When you beat an enemy the fight just restarts. I removed the mod by verifying game files and the bug got fixed. I installed the mod again and the bug is back, so i assume it's related to the mod.
I'll see if I can replicate that on my end. Thanks for the heads up!

i actually made one! :D
Yeah, there's been a bit of that going around. I felt like I had to do this after making the prologue mod, even after people released their own versions. I hope your mod gets some attention, too.
Do you mind if I make a guide on how to install this on the Game's page or do you plan on making the guide there yourself. I think it would be good to have a guide there, not necessarily because people need it but since it would help visibility since many people still aren't aware of this mod.
If you'd like to, sure!
Awesome, I'll publish it roughly when the mod is published. I'm guessing the instructions will be the same as the prologue (demo) version just with new files for the main game.
as much as i love the remake i can't deny the loss of the perfect soundtrack alias created for the original game so i definitely think this will be the best way to play the game once it releases
Yeah, the loss of the original Soundtrack really hurt the Remaster. I'm looking forward to this mod so I can give it a fair comparison with the original. Also hoping he releases it soon so people doing Playthroughs of the game online will have access to it if they so choose.
At this point I can safely say it'll be ready today. There were a few extra hurdles with this version of the game and how it packages music, but that's mostly resolved now. The process overall is pretty drawn-out, I wish I could do it faster...
I look forward to the end result! It'd be cool to be able to toggle what songs are old/new, but I get the complications that come with this process (cough, unity). Good luck!
I thought it was a simple asset replacement, not that it would add being able to swap songs dynamically. Though that would be cool.
For real! I look forward to this mod either way. Mainly brought it up for the OFF modmakers to ponder.
i’m really glad to hear that! admittedly i’ve been checking on and off all day lol, i’m very excited to see how the remake feels with the original soundtrack
don’t rush yourself! you’ve already stepped up to do this faster than i expected anyone to do
i'm looking forward to this. don't hurry and keep your spirit alive.
how i can download
There'll be a file to download when it's ready...
oki dokes, can't wait and also, i give ya luck for this , you epic
