I'm just some guy who periodically gets addicted to hacking NES games. Sound familiar?

As of late I've being relatively addicted and my roommates are like WTF. I'm so addicted I decided to join some hack forum. I recognise this addiction as somewhat of a time eating process, as I go on hiatus from pretty much everything else when I do get into such a state. I suppose I could give it the good connotative word and call it a hobby, but oh, the time it eats up...

I was tempted to talk to people about hacking from time to time and I'm sure I can learn a lot too. Sometimes I cross a hacking document and I have no idea what they are talking about, but Ieventually figure it out as time goes by. I feel that this is a place to go if I get stuck on anything I can't figure out. This place looks strange and a wee bit disorienting with the posting layouts and all.

I primarily use a hex editor to edit games. The things I like to edit most include level design and music. I admit that I don't really like making much graphical enhancements on games since I usually enjoy the look of most games. I am not too advanced of a computer person. I took a Java programming class at school and got a C in it if that counts for anything.

Righht now I'm hacking Castlvania.

That's a pretty interesting story. A new person actually describes themself. If you need to know anything about hacking ROMs, this is definately the right place. This site in my opinion, is the best site to help out with hacking. Have fun and post a lot.

Well so far, I can tell this place is very active and highly populated. It doesn't appear that I would have to wait long in order to get a response after leaving a message here. And it also looks as if the people here are very knowledgable about programming too so this looks like the top place to be at for my reasons. I come here with much humility.

Heh, Acmlm's board might not be as active as the biggest boards but it´s a really fun place.

Good introduction, optomon. I´m not really into hacking myself. Enjoy your stay, or else.

Heh...same thing landed me here some time ago (I've been out for awhile). Haven't had time to give any game a go in quite awhile; college really eats up one's spare time.

Hope you enjoy your stay here.

I'm already getting tired of hacking and may have to put it off for the time being, especially because a lack of free time is starting to close upon me. Some of it has to do with finishing school of course, showing to me, my friends and my family that I am a busy and hard working person with a good deal of self regard.

Like I said, I was mostly fooling around with Castlevania, having editing in some new music and hashing parts of the game using a GUI called Stake. I also was able to find out a few other things about the game. One good example is the info pointing to where all the secret hidden treasures in the game are. Now that I've opened the rom in hexeditor and searched thoroughly, I can see where all them are! Not such big secrets anymore, hahaaha.

Not sure if I'll be here much now but knowing me, I bet I'll be active here one of these days.
