| Oh well I'm back... The Crimson Chin, I'm aware that the n64 doesn't use banks, but there seem to be constants regarding where the MIO0 files are decompressed in RAM. I called them banks because the game seems to load textures and geometry in specific parts of RAM, and those loading addresses are always multiples of 64k (or maybe 128 or 256k...). The "bank" number I was usually refering is the high byte of the addresses referring to MIO0 file content, and this byte is usually not relevant to the position inside the file, you have to substract the base address (high byte + 00 00) to find the address inside the MIO0. I'm very tired so it might be a confusing explanation. Anyhow I guess I should stop using the term "banks" because it confuses people  tachyon: My best bet is that you use only a .v64 type Mario 64 ROMs in my editor, it will be improved later to either support both formats or at least prevent you from opening the wrong format. I thought all the warnings on my page and documentation would scare newbies from using my editor, I guess I was wrong zidapi: I should have posted the Beta Egg and Flower earlier, but I was sucked up into the polygon decoding |

| tachyon: I forgot, welcome aboard and really cool nick by the way I hope I wasn't too rough with you with that newbie thing, it's just that my program is not exactly ready for anyone, because it doesn't check if it's the right ROM version. You can use my editor, and don't hesitate to ask me any questions about it, even newbie questions. The same applies to anyone who has downloaded my editor |

| thanks for the warm reception! I found a byte-swapper in my overflowing Downloads folder, and successfully made a .v64 backup. but I still have the same problem. about the name, a tachyon is a theoretical particle that moves faster than light. it has never been proven to exist. |

Originally posted by VL-Tone No worries, progression of the level editor takes higher priority than requests for eye candy, I understand Originally posted by stag019 Sorry i didn't fully realize, that this was to be a basic text edit/voice change/re-color and stretch mario deallie.

Sorry if that came accross as sarcastic or rude, it wasn't supposed to... |

| well, I don't live in Europe, but I can see how it might be European. the file name is Super Mario 64 (U) [!].v64. does that tell you anything? it would be helpful if you could just tell me where to get the right ROM. one more thing. I changed it from Big Endian order to Doctor v64 order. should it be Little Endian? | |||

Originally posted by tachyonNo, It should be Doctor v64. I have a ROM that works, but of course, I can't tell you the filename because I always rename everything. I use this byteswapper, if it matters. Originally posted by zidapiWell, first off, I hope to be the only one doing a SM64 hack for a while, as no one has done one before and released it to the public. Second off, that would be kinda cool, but I wouldn't know how. I will be making other SM64 hacks, so maybe I could do some cool things with that. But Luigi 64 is a Luigi hack only. Originally posted by The Crimson ChinI knew it was empty space, and I should've known it has to be a certain size, and I knew you'd be the one to answer it.Originally posted by tachyon (edited by stag019 on 08-01-05 09:03 PM) (edited by stag019 on 08-01-05 09:04 PM) |

| Hmmm, let me count the number of times someone mentioned that opening a ROM resulted in objects that are misplaced? Ok it's my fault... To end the confusion, I added ROM version checking routines to the editor. Yeah I admit, I should have added these from the start. And, most importantly: the editor will now open and edit US Mario 64 ROMs with either normal or reversed byte ordering. This should cover most formats, .v64, z64 etc. The new version 0.31b is available at: http://membres.lycos.fr/nes3d/M64EditDownload.htm Another important new feature: it will prevent the user from opening a ROM with an incompatible version, like the european PAL version. It does that by checking the MIO0 signature for the level 1 geometry file. This method should be pretty much infallible (knocks on wood) in preventing the opening of a file not handled by the editor. When you try to open an incompatible version, you get an alert dialog box: "Wrong version...". After clicking ok you will be taken to a mostly black screen with only the Open ROM... button working (and the close button!) so you can try another ROM file. |

Bug report. (Already?) Open a US rom, then try to open a Japanese rom, then it will go to the mostly blank screen. Then try to open another rom, but cancel this time. You'll go back to the editor. Also try opening a jap rom first. Then go back and click cancel, and the screen will change from mostly black to mostly blue. |

| Do you have version 0.31b? Version 0.31b supports ABCD and BADC ordering. (Edit... ok that's it I quit! )(edited by VL-Tone on 08-02-05 05:16 AM) (edited by VL-Tone on 08-02-05 05:18 AM) (edited by VL-Tone on 08-02-05 05:40 AM) |

Originally posted by tachyonIf you downloaded the new version, that might be why it works Or, if you didn't you probably used a different ROM. |

I downloaded the new version. unfortunately, I don't have the audio, video, or controller plugins to run my emulator.  I'm getting a controller, but I have no idea where to get audio or video plugins. does anyone here know? |

| Well, you could have a reverse byte order, and it still works with the new one. I'll post some link to plugins in a minute. What Emu are you using? (edited by stag019 on 08-02-05 10:16 AM) (edited by stag019 on 08-02-05 10:41 AM) |
