Hey fellas - Excellent forum you got here. I've done some light rom hacking before but nothing major. One of my all time favorite games is Tony La Russa Baseball for Sega Genesis. The rosters are ancient so I tried to mess around with hacking it a bit. I open the rom in the hex editor (hexecute) fine but when I edit any single piece of text and then save the game, the game then won't load in the emulator. The screen just stays black. I can see ACSII text cleary in the hex editor so I don't think it's a compression issue. But when I change a single letter of any player's name (or any single hex value) the rom will not load. The few other Genesis Roms I tried did not have this problem. Anybody ever try hacking this game or does anybody have any ideas that could help me out? Would be much appreciated. | |||

Just stumbled across this site today and it is by far the most active hacking forum that I have come across. Excellent work. Extremely useful resource here for the novice and experienced hacker. I'm sure I will be back here many times. ktulu22 |

Thanks for the help guys. I still have not been able to have any luck. The rom is already in binary form so we are good there. If you change any piece of hex (roster or otherwise) the game still crashes upon loading. It could be a checksum issue. I'm going to mess around with it some more today. Again, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again. | |||

Good idea - but still no luck. Tried it several times but the game still will not load. Even changing a simple 01 to a 00 and an 00 to an 01 causes the game to crash. I'm getting desperate here. Here is the link to a place where you can download the rom (zipped as a zip file) if you want to mess with it yourself: La Russa Baseball Again, any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks (edited by ktulu22 on 06-20-05 08:49 AM) |

B frickin EAUTIFUL - Nice work man. The value at 000ffa98 was actually 66 instead of 60 but after changing the values to 4e71 it works perfect. Muchos gracias my friend. Now on to disecting this mofo for player attributes and what not. Anybody have any experience at all hacking this game? Thanks again man. Really appreciate it. |
