Well, the times must be wrong. The thread was made 23 hours later. |

Ummm.. I don't think so. I just looked and they don't seem to agree with you. |

Err... Look at the time and date. My post was made 23 hours before the thread was made. |

You could at least have made that post link to your other thread. |

Thx. It would be nice if there was a way to edit that easily. I'd write a program for it, but I don't have enough experience for that yet. *hint**hint* |

Sorry about the one week bump, but I found it. It begins at 2B926.
The following text can be found there (in the same order as in the rom): MARIO A ...EMPTY MARIO B ...EMPTY MARIO C ...EMPTY ERASE ERASE ERASE END MARIO A ...EMPTY MARIO B ...EMPTY MARIO C ...EMPTY ERASE DATA 1 PLAYER GAME 2 PLAYER GAME CONTINUE AND SAVE CONTINUE WITHOUT SAVE CONTINUE END
The format is the same as the status bar and can be found in the ROM Loc thread. (This info will be added to the ROM Loc thread as well) |

The reason you're having trouble locating it in the rom is because it uses a custom font that only has the letters it needs. You can find the individual tiles scattered around the 2bpp graphics files. |

So, I've got this program which splits the rom into two parts and changes the values to make the "Layer 3 Text" readable through notepad or a hex editor. I found two instances of the word "MARIO" in the rom. Neither one of them worked. The first one was located next to the word "LUIGI". I tried changing them, but I couldn't find where in the game they are used. The other one was "MARIO AND SYSTEM PROGRAMMER" from the credits.
I tried looking through the rom in "Layer 3 Mode" just in case something would pop up. I found nothing, except for what I belive to be the tile data for the "big wooden smashers" from the first castle and the rock background from the cave levels. I haven't been "unlazy" enough to confirm this, though. |

Probably what you'd want to do is use something like tracer (I think) to find the ASM for that menu and change the 8x8 tiles used. Thats all I can think of. |

You may not want to do that, because it uses Letters from a complete Font which is used in other areas of the game. |

Edit the graphics for the word "MARIO".
It's in GFX29.bin (Open it with YY-CHR)

Hey,
You know how on the title screen menu, it gives you the option to load a game from the three slots:
MARIO A - EMPTY MARIO B - EMPTY MARIO C - EMPTY
Does anybody know how to change it so it says like:
SLATE 1 - EMPTY SLATE 2 - EMPTY SLATE 3 - EMPTY
Let me know, thanks.
