| It's not Goombahead, but it's the first step on our road to creating freakish player characters that don't deserve to exist! The next step is getting a "I want to die" voice sample into the game.  |

Also interesting is that Peach's voice sample in the game sounds different than the actual recording.  Originally posted by VL-Tone Hm... I bet the sign's parameter is a text pointer or some such. |

| I think it's a table pointer, but I have not verified it. The text messages from friendly bob-ombs in the uncompressed object layout data are referred by a table pointer. I would love to hear Bowser's laugh at "normal" speed, instead of the slowed down version in the game (or accelerated one for Boo's) By the way anyone of you tried the ips patch for Mario with Peach's head? I know it's a little freakish, but it's very funny in action  Anyway it's not like I spent much time on it, I was studying the data when I realized I could do this hack pretty easily from what I knew, but it was never like a goal to me.(edited by VL-Tone on 08-20-05 09:14 PM) (edited by VL-Tone on 08-20-05 09:18 PM) |

| I tried the patch. Mario's head turns into a large textured polygon inside the castle and all of the levels crashed PJ64. One level locked up Windows so tight that I had to press reset. There is a command for setting/changing the transformation matrix. It works like the OpenGL functions glPushMatrix, glLoadMatrix, glMultMatrix, and glMatrixMode rolled into one. 01 GG 00 40 PP PP PP PP The matrix pointed to by the matrix command is 64 bytes long. The matrix is composed of 16 32-bit signed fixed point scalars. All of the whole parts of the scalars are in the first half of the matrix data, and all of the fractional parts are in the second half. Within each half, the data is in the expected order. There is also a command to pop matrices. bd 00 00 00 00 00 00 GG Don't bother pushing/popping the projection matrix. Its stack is only 1 level. To enlarge peach's head, you would not need to change it anyway. I also found out how the addresses work. The RSP has a lookup table of 16 base pointers into main memory. The first byte of a pointer in a command is used as an index into the table, and the last 24 bits of the pointer in the command are added to the base pointer from the table to obtain the location of the resource pointed to in the command. There is a command to set the base pointers (among other things). bc SS SS 06 BB BB BB BB You probably will not see this command in the ROM, as I suspect that it is generated at runtime. |

Probably a dissembler and a lot of OpenGL kno-how.Originally posted by Cellar Dweller Yeah, seems like he just recognized those functions. |

I just noticed you guys touching base on sound. Been there and back again, I have the sample format completely figured out thanks to the help of a few tools I used to my advantage...I can extract, and more or less insert (I'm pretty sure  ) any instrument or other sample from the game (and actualy have ), along with a .h file containing loop and envelope data, as well as stuff such as the proper playback frequency. So yeah. Don't waste too much time with sound--I got it covered |

| As I stated earlier in the thread, I have been refering to other files, and they fall into the same catagory as warez and ROMs. Some of the files are documents, which contain overall functional descriptions, and some are C header files, one which contans C preprocessor macros that create the commands by shifting the parameters onto the right places. I use the docs for general information, and I trace through the macros to get the exact bit layout. Finally, I write a description of the command that is intended for a different group. Many of the commands at the API level are actually wrappers for other commands at the binary level. I obtained the information from a site run by a USF ripper shortly after this thread was started. After VL-Tone posted his information, I had correctly figured that the docs that I had recently obtaned would provide more information on the format. Also, the N64 doesn't use OpenGL for an API, but an API that is tied to the hardware. Now, I really should work on a function scanner..... |

| Interesting. Which one is do you guys think is closest to Charles Martinet's original voice? (Well, either him or Leslie Swan from what I remember from the credits) | |||

| Um. None of them. Because he changes his voice to do the rolls. Artificialy changing the pitch won't do a thing for it |

| umm... I wasn't clear enough. My bad. I meant the original recording, before it's playback speed/pitch was altered. | |||

| Cellar Dweller, I've warned people about the head patch only working outside the castle, this is because it's the only place Peach's geometry is loaded. Maybe I should have been more clear that it could crash the game, though I didn't know Windows could lock because of an emu. Anyway great info you got there, as usual I guess I should try to find these docs, but I try to keep my reverse-engineer "clean". I don't know... everything I found until now has been without the docs (earlier info you posted confirmed things I already figured out), and some of these routines are probably patented, so it doesn't matter that I own the SM64 ROM, they could sue my butt off if I publish an editor based on trade-secrets. I think they tolerate what we are doing, but we shouldn't push our luck too far...But as for the commands you described, do you have any concrete example of them in the game? As for the "Area of the RSP's RAM to place the data: 0x06=Segment table" I think it's what I referred (incorrectly) as RAM banks. For example, Mario's geometry is loaded in "bank" 04. RT-55J thanks for the sample Was it part of a mailbag entry on TMK? If so can you link it?(edited by VL-Tone on 08-23-05 06:34 PM) |

| Well, I'm back from vacation, and I have to say, you're finally getting somewhere again! Maybe I should just leave this topic alone, and it'll get even further. (edited by stag019 on 09-03-05 07:55 PM) |
