I'm guessing he can't remove the 200 byte header... :-\
Snes9X can do this automatically for you, I think... (At least Geiger's debugger can...) |

Okay, I did what you said, and I got this:
At least the shape's right I guess.  |

again, you cant.
you can only specify direct colors.
for that particular blue to white fade you mentioned, try setting the background color in lunar magic to something similar, but keep the green and red values at the same level, like 1/3 intensity, while having blue at full or near-full intensity all the time.
now gradually increase red and green to near-full level.
this is only an approximation, but it should do the job.
if you must have different red and green values, try changing each of them on individual scanlines, but try to maintain equal numbers of lines between the changes.
wont look that bad, either. |

have to use 3 table entries for that.
And how can i do that without using up a scanline? setting the scanline count to $00 terminates the gradient, so how can i write 3 table entries to the same scanline?
you cant.
but you don't have to in most of the cases.
select the first color in lunar magic (background color), then go from there and fade in one, two or three colors at the same time.
i have yet to see a gradient that absolutely cant be reproduced using this system.
you could post a screenshot of the one youre trying to reproduce, though. |

show me a screenshot of that, please.
before going into details, are you 100% sure you didnt mess up the order or number of levels configs in the levelattributes.txt file?

why doesn't it work with a hdma rom that has been expanded to 2048kb?
I started a HDMA rom and transferred everthing over from SMB1, and once I imported the ExGFX, the ROM expanded from 1024 to 2048. Then I renamed it to smw.smc, removed the header etc, but the linker said that the filesizes don't match, and smw_hdma wasn't created. 
Is there anything I can do about this?
Also, those instructions for creating new colour gradients are close to impossible to follow.  Could somebody please give me simplified instructions to create the blue colour gradient identical to that in SMAS SMB1? Thanks.
i'll repeat this because it isnt documented in the readme.
if you want to change the size of the rom, you have to adjust the number of banks.
look for ".ROMBANKS 32" in link.txt.
thats the number of lorom banks the rom has.
one bank is 32kbyte / 0,25 mbit.
therefore, you have to adjust the number of rombanks depending on the size of your rom.
.ROMBANKS 32=8mbit
.ROMBANKS 64=16mbit
and so on. |

Another question...
Wouldn't it be possible to implement the same serpentine movement to the foreground? Yoshi's Island had a few examples, like the lava in Big Boo's Fort. |

You do realize how much that would suck, right?Originally posted by HyperHacker
To fix the problem: Google autoexec.nt.
Yay! Dos works again! Originally posted by smwedit
or download snestool (find it at zophar's or the rom hack domain), open the rom, select delete header, then select your rom, and it should work.
It’s kind of hard to get an error message from a program you haven’t downloaded yet, don’t you think? |

Yeah, but nobody cares about n00bs. If they can't figure out that they're supposed to drag-and-drop or whatever then too bad. A WinGUI would be good, sure, but not necessary. |

I don't think that most of the n00b either can handle a DOS program or a hex editor, lol. A WinGUI may would be better, at least for some XP users.  |

I figured out how to somewhat simulate the effects in coral capers for the BG and I used the effects of the desert heat waves for the FG (it looks more like the coral capers wavy FG than the underwater effect does) it doesn't have a gradient. I might release it when I get the time.
Edit: I also made something somewhat-like the MMX2 overdrive ostrich, but it too scrolls much too fast. |
