I knew it would be such a small thing... Thanks a lot, now I could finally get rid of those annoying colored words in the opening story. Thanks for the additional info BMF54123 , now I finally understand why NESTICLE can't edit all games directly.

Looking at the rom, looks like you need to shift up or down to get to your graphics... try shifting right 4 bytes, and see what that does... Ok Impala! Posts: 231/383 Ok! I really feel like a noob now... But, I got a problem with Legend of Zelda (NES). I've changed titlescreens several times, even that of Mario Kart, but I can't seem to see what the problem is with this one. When you view it with NESTICLE or FCEUXD (Tile viewer) it will just normally show the tiles. But when I open the ROM in Tile Molestor the titlescreen is completely messed up, like if it's compressed or something... I think I'm overlooking something really obvious, can anyone give me some ideas on how to change the titlescreen.
