There are three reasons why you want to do it.

-You want to steal Fusoya's graphics.
-You want to find secrets.
-You want to steal his overworld or levels.

Either way, I wouldnt. People do not take things like this politely. But, if you really want to, contact Keikonium because I think he found a way.

DAMN, Xkeep beat me to it.

You can't unlock hacks, you have to know the bytes which may unlock the hack, but you won't be able to open the hack and view the levels with the right GFX, nobody has done that and why not search for the thread?
Can someone close this?

The person who made that thread was Orynider, a known thief and general lamer. And his method doesn't work, by the way.

What most people with fond dreams of unlocking a hack don't realize is that more than just a few bytes are changed in the rom. The actual level format is slightly changed, making it nearly impossible to unlock a hack with an IPS patch unless you have the unlocked version to make it with.

Unlocking someones hack andres just to take things from it means that your not a real hacker... In my opinion I guess.

Chris, I know a better word for "not a real hacker", he's a hack stealer.
He probably wants to have Fu's GFX or the ASM hacks, but he won't get them.

You wouldn't have to unlock the hack to get the GFX or ASM hacks, anyway.

The only way to making a true hack is to put some effort into it. What you did was one of the worst ways of indicating how lazy you are. Don't do that again.

Why is everyone condemning him based entirely on one piece of circumstantial evidence? I can think of a few things to do with an unlocked DW:TLC .smc file other than stealing from it.

Oh, no doubt. It would make a great tutorial to look over everything freely.

Actually, I would just unlock it (if possible) just to see how he did it. If you steal any of his levels/gfx people will notice anyway. (Come on, who DOESN'T know DW:TLC?)

You are wrong, because all that person would be doing is HACKING.
When you use SMAS GFX, do you think you are NOT stealing them from nintendo? Hah.

What do you think that romhackers are doing when they hack?

As bad as unlocking a SMW hack sounds, it's nothing more than ROM HACKING. Deal with it.

And it's not about a few bytes changed, the level data is compressed and the level lading routine was changed.

IMO it is much easier to learn how to rip instead of looking for ways of unlocking hacks to take exgfx and other stuff.

Well the only reasons one would want to unlock the hack are to rip levels or graphics, figure out the ASM hacks, or find secrets, and there are problems with all of these. The levels are encrypted so even if you got LM to open them, they wouldn't look right unless you actually cracked the encryption too (and everyone would know). The graphics could be ripped in other, much easier ways. The ASM hacks are most likely not related to the hack being locked but probably are designed for the specific type of ROM used (ExHiROM I think), so they wouldn't work in the type LM saves in. (The public version won't save in that format.) And there's a FAQ available which I'm sure would be much easier, or you could just cheat.

Its only a matter of changing 2 bytes to unlock the hack, but having to change alot more to have the graphics and such show up.

Posted by Kyouji Craw:

The person who made that thread was Orynider, a known thief and general lamer. And his method doesn't work, by the way.

Actually, it was me that posted that. And I just wanted to see if it was possible to unlock a hack, which it is. People got pissed at me for doing it, so I wont post the two bytes, but I will tell you there are right near the...games name in hex? if you search Super Demo in a hex editor (having SDW open) the bytes are very close by that. I have it written down somewhere what the bytes were....


Anyway, dont bother trying. Its not worth it, you can't see corect graphics, you get lots of errors etc. The only real thing you can get out of it is seeing the level layout, which is sometimes messed up anyway

Kei, your method unlocks the hack, yes, by removing the flag LM looks for that says "This hack is locked." However, it's still in the altered format that LM doesn't read. You would need a different patch for every ROM, changing the same two bytes every time recovers nothing.
