Yeah, basically. It's similar to the TSA in SMB3, I believe. (at least with the world maps)

My CRT made a lot of high-pitched noises when I first bought it, so I don't think it's anything to do with age. My own fix was just a change in resolution, as certain resolutions seemed to get of the the noise completely. It's just a pity that the resolution that whined a lot was 1024x768 which is the highest resolution that most games can run at.

I might be fired very soon.


Is the company going bust or something?

I work Tesco. Evil. I redeem myself by doing as little as possible and "sampling" pick and mix.

If you like brainless and tedious work, try working in a supermarket. It's the ultimate in brainless tedium. The only relief I get is from inventing new ways to scare the shit out of random people I work with.

Mainly because cheap bastards will pirate the games and play them on emulators than actually go out and buy the damn things. Like with the GBA

But heh, I really don't want to start yet another pointless debate on that subject.

That is without doubt the most accurate statement on learning ASM ever. Anyway, download every tutorial you can find on 6502 assembly (preferably from nesdev.parodius.com), read them, and keep reading them until you understand it. Easy enough.

Well, the cost of hearts is at $1DA8F in the ROM. (PRG 1 version)

It's desnet.fobby.net now. And I can think of a ton of utilities that aren't available on those sites. (Well, not a ton, but quite a few)

I believe that happens only when you have an onboard sound card.

Coupling VB with C++ on this project would be like sticking a Ferrari engine in a Lada.

If I knew C++, I would definitely want to join this project, but all I know is bare bones console app programming.

It loads NES ROMs fine. It just doesn't automatically run them. (That definitely needs to be remedied ) Go to the CPU menu, and hit 'Run'.

(I posted this at TEK, but I have problems connecting to TEK a lot )

So you want the data for the two other sound channels? Square 1 and square 2? I'll make a presumption that's what you are looking for, so if I'm wrong, don't shoot me.

Using Stake, load your ROM, and open the music pointer editor. Select the track you want to get the data for the instruments for, (I'll use the Vampire Killer Level 1 track), and you'll notice in the Advanced Editing Mode box, there are three pointers. These are the pointers to the music data for each channel of the NES sound.

You'll need to convert those pointers to iNES ROM addresses, so incase you don't know how to do so, here's a small tutorial on how to do so.

Taking the square 1 pointer ($9383), subtract $8000 from it, and you'll get $1383. (Obviously ) Now add $10 (the iNES header), and you'll get the location in ROM for the data for that channel. ($1C93)

Gavin has a similar program on his website called SMB Fabtasticator. It's in the projects page.

I really suck at this game. I can't even get past the first level. Then again, I suck at most hacks, so it's no big deal.

Some of the jumps annoyed me, due to the fact there was a block above my head at penalized me by death if I jumped too high. That's alright for level 6-2 or something, but level 1-1 should be incredibly easy. Again for the presence of those spinny fireball things and the hammer bros.

Then again, a lot of people like instant challenge from the off.

There isn't any functional SMB2 editors other than Acmlm's SMB2D. There's an unfinished editor called Dreamweaver, but I'm not sure if it actually edits anything.

Isn't that hack by DXEdge a Megaman 5 hack? Anyways, I'm interested in any hacks that are for the Mega Man game series. It's not hacked much these days, even though it's one of the best series to appear on the NES.

Converting those addresses to PRG 1 should be easy enough. You just work out the ROM address being changed, go to that location in the PRG 0 ROM, and try to find the bytes in the PRG 1 ROM.

I think your whip does get stronger as you get powerups also.

Apparently DS ROMs are encrypted also, so emulating them will be even harder. Yay.

Yeah, but you get a 2kb file that is actually the HTML for that direct-linking page. Well, at least, I do.
