| If it were up to me (and I knew how) I'd have a separate field for # of deleted posts. The post counters in the sidebar would remain as posts/total, but the profile could display it as posts+deleted/total (# deleted). | |||

Also some programs don't like certain wheels. For example, Visual Basic won't respond to mine by default. If I install the support app for it, VB detects it, but now Lunar Magic no longer responds to it.  |

| That's certainly odd. Does either Ctrl key work for it? If so, it's probably software related. | |||

Reading previous posts is usually a good idea.Originally posted by HyperHacker Besides, there are no such stores out here in the middle of nowhere.  |

Me and Acmlm. Used to have Colleen (since he was close to passing Acmlm) and some banned guy with about -7000 posts (so I could have it say 'you are 10000 ahead'  ).Hmm, Acmlm's one post away from #400, and I'm one away from #...207. What a coincidence! |

Originally posted by EvillerLegion Real men destroy the controllers.  I've never intentionally destroyed any games/accessories except a few N64/SNES controllers, but I've accidentally killed a lot. As I can recall... -Smashed several Interact SNES controllers. Sometimes becuase I was pissed, usually because they didn't work. (IA made the worst accessories EVER. Thank god they're gone.) -Killed a Nintendo N64 controller. Took several months of smashing. (Which reminds me, anyone wanna buy Space Station: Silicon Valley? -Smashed some crappy third-party N64 controller with a defective Start button. I'd already returned one that day with a busted joystick, they wouldn't accept another. -Ripped apart a few N64 controllers whose joysticks had worn out to the point of being pretty much unusable. Tried to fix them and failed. -Cracked open a Pokemon Red and Super Mario Land game, both of which have defective memory controllers. (MBC1s seem to break down easy.  ) Maybe I can fix 'em someday.-Ripped several pieces out of an N64 which had died on me. Thing was messed from day 1, I think a capacitor died. It'd squeal (in the speakers) when I shut it off, eventually it wouldn't turn on anymore. Made a controller extension cord from the parts. -Killed quite a few NESes trying to mod the power switch. Maybe I'll just leave it alone this time. -Accidentally stuck Super Mario Kart in an N64 Gameshark. Toast.  -Had several N64 Gamesharks just plain die. Damn pieces of junk. -Melted a Gamecube PSU. Had the cord not been wrapped in such thick plastic (Nintendo's durability at work) it prolly woulda started a fire. Word to the wise, keep electronics away from heaters. (Fixed it tho.  )My games tend to take a lot of abuse. Nintendo makes 'em good tho.  |

 They evaded a cookie ban? I didn't think people who do lame account spamming would be intelligent enough to do that. We may be dealing with some sort of strange super-lamer....Nah, prolly just hired help. |

| I was able to run any Gameboy/NES game on a 66mhz 486Dx with 8MB RAM. Even ran Super Mario World, but at about 1 FPS. So no, emulators won't take up a lot of RAM. (And even if they do, it just slows down your computer, it'll use a swap file if need be.) |

| W00t, that worked! (I actually tried that but it didn't work because of some other odd problem.) Thanks! I also made a rather interesting discovery about the image size byte. 85 = 01010101b. 40 = 00101000b. Chop off the last 3 bits and rotate left 3 times, and what do you get? Exactly. And notice that upon changing it to 213 (11010101b), nothing appears to change. Hmm...Say, are back pics variable-sized? |

| As I understand, the big problem is that SMW waits for the SPC700 to write back 0xBBAA, but other music programs don't do this? Well that seems simple enough to fix. First you gotta figure out why it does this. -Waiting for the SPC700 to set itself up so it can start playing music? Probably. Solution? Hack the init program of the music you're inserting to do what SMW's does. -A hardware test? Maybe. Solution? Kill it. -Some kind of protection? Possibly. Solution? Kill it too. ...I don't suppose there's any hope of importing SMRPG songs? I need that sewer music. |

| SMW uses $55 in RAM, haven't looked at SRAM. (I thought that was just a hardware abnormality.) Course you could just beat everything on all 3 save slots (cheat ) and look, or trace the ASM. |

| Look for pointers to the text. If you know where the game's DrawString function is, it can be a big help. Once you find a reference, trace back through the ASM. You'll find one of 4 things: -The code checks a variable in RAM/ROM. Just change this to what it wants to activate. (More advanced old games often use this, example: Metroid 2) -The code is skipped over by a non-conditional jump or rerouted call. Change the jump to match the proper condition (IE jump if zero instead of just jump) or direct the call to where it's supposed to go. (Older games tend to use this, example: Super Mario World.) -The code is a subroutine that never gets called. It can sometimes be impossible to find where they were supposed to go (as this is usually with games written in C, so it just gets compiled out seamlessly), but usually can be hooked somewhere such as an options menu. To actually activate the debugger, I usually just write down everything important, rig up code to call whatever subroutine in place of something (menus usually) and call the sub I'm in. If that doesn't work, I trace back to find the sub that calls that and repeat until I get good results. (Note: Often you'll find the debugger with corrupt GFX. If you trace back further, you might find the GFX loader, though in some cases they're meant to load at a place where the required GFX are already loaded.) (Newer games (usually those written in higher-level languages) tend to use this, example: Pokemon G/S.) -The text is left over but there's no actual debugger. (Rather unlikely though.) Can't think of an example. Usually if they kill the debugger they do it because of limited space, so they'd kill the text too. Removing debuggers seems to be rare in Nintendo games, probably because of the debugging involved after doing so. Or of course, it could be totally bogus just there to tease you. |

| Look for references to the address. Usually a bank isn't specified (unless it's SNES and not bank 7E). If you know ASM it'll be a huge help. | |||

| Clean the connectors and slots, and make sure it's not wet. Otherwise, no. Although it might not be the chip at all. Or did you mean something related to a certain dancing game? |

| In Win98 it's controlled by a DVDRegion key in the registry. It's probably the same in XP, but the key's been moved/renamed. | |||

Originally posted by Kitten Yiffer Heh, I'm in a similar situation. Canada doesn't really have any enemies (and we're bordered by the US, the North Pole, and a lotta water ) but I live close to the border, so if the bombs start hitting near NYC I'm likely toast too. Of course, they're more likely to go after Washington in a war, which is far from me. A bigger concern is that the majority of our defenses are the US, and we have a lot of clean water and free space. They're bound to come looking for some of that eventually... (Heck, just about everyone is.) |
