| Usually the info boxes will show what the text says from the level you started in. So if you started on level 105 and went to level 106 via a pipe and hit a message box, it would show what the text was in level 105. Is there anyway to make it so you'd be able to see the text from level 106 and so on? | |||

| It shouldn't be too hard... Using BMF's patch to get the real level number and them modify the box code where it checks the level number. | |||

| ...Or just make a simple custom block that changes the low byte of the current level number. After the custom block is activated, the info box should display the message of the new level number. The block should look something like this:
A9 06 8D BF 13 60 What it does is it stores 06 at 7E13BF. I haven't tested it, but yeah, give it a shot, I can't see why it wouldn't work. |

| eh...now the problem is I've never messed with making a custom block before....how exactly would I go about doing this? | |||

| Open a hex editor, and type those 6 bytes of code, save it as "info.bin" in your blocktool folder. Open block tool and go to edit block data. Go find a block between 1 and 350 that you won't use, and change it's file name to info.bin, change all offset fileds to -1 except Above, Below and Sides. Edit the tooltips and Block name if you want. Then simply insert the block like you normally would.
In this case you should make it invisible, and set to act like 25. Then, walking through it should make the game think you're on level 106, and will display 106's info message. Note, if you're on a level between 0 to FF, hitting the block will make the game think you're in level 006. and 100 to 1FF => 106.

Got the block in, tried it and it doesn't seem to be doing anything...
EDIT: Yeah, I got it, but it seems it thinks I'm on level 0-FF regardless, because its reading the info box from level 6... otherwise it works great.

Originally posted by Synthrax + Hmm... best way to fix your problem would be to define the high byte of the level number, for 100 - 1FF. Also, the example code is written to set it to just 06. You'll have to find a way to read the level number from memory, or have a custom block for each level's message box text you want to set it to. |

| I eagerly await a finished version of this, simply because it opens up so many possibilities... | |||

| It's not quite exactly on topic, but why do you replace one of the existing 350 blocks? Last i did SMW hacking with the 350-block blocktool and such there was a button, or other way to go to the end of the block database and make a new record.. no losing blocks there?

| I think I may be something written in the code. I tried adding a new block to the end of it instead of overwriting an existing one, but didn't get the effect I should have :/ |
