| (note: The correct ROM you need is Sonic 3D.smd.... it's .smd, NOT .bin, as that is a different version (thanks to Bane King for noting this for me)
*PLEASE READ BELOW BEFORE YOU READ THE DATA* Aside from hacking YI, I tend to play Sonic 3D....since that game is damn awesome whether anyone thinks so or not. I finally decided it was time to look for an editor for the game....however, no editors were out. "Well, dammit" I thought. I really wanted to hack this game. Thus began my crusade to find data in the ROM. Listed below are some of my notes (well, about 6 pages worth). About 95% of the offsets listed are exact, however, where you see a really big byte range (like, over a couple thousand) is where I'm unsure (this includes Sonics animations.) So far, I have managed to hack through many palettes, movies, main entrances, the order of levels, the menus, graphics, animations, and level arrangements. I have just begun finding level layouts....which is what I'm currently working on. Without further ado, here is what I have so far. (note: don't forget these are my personal notes, so they may not make a lot of sense  )
Bytes are in increasing order. ------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------- NOTICE: In pretty much all cases, changing any byte to byte FF will yield the Congratulations – you have found the secret level select screen – or better known as the C screen. ------------------------------------ $711: SEGA intro. Changing it to anything other than FC will make it crash. $715: SEGA intro. Changing it to anything other than 75 will make it crash. $716: Changes which level is entered when you hit “Start” on main screen. (01 is default “Green Grove 1”) 00=CRASH!!!! 01=Green Grove Zone 1 02=Green Grove Zone 2 03=Green Grove Zone 3 04=Gene Gadget Zone 1 05=Gene Gadget Zone 2 06=Rusty Ruin Zone 2 07=Rusty Ruin Zone 1 08=Rusty Ruin Zone 3 09=Diamond Dust Zone 1 0A=Diamond Dust Zone 2 0B=Diamond Dust Zone 3 0C=Volcano Valley Zone 2 0D=Volcano Valley Zone 1 0E=Volcano Valley Zone 3 0F=Spring Stadium Zone 1 10=Spring Stadium Zone 2 11=Spring Stadium Zone 3 12=Gene Gadget Zone 3 (way down here???) 13=Panic Puppet Zone 2 14=Panic Puppet Zone 1 (notice a pattern yet?) 15=Panic Puppet Zone 3 16=The Final Fight Anything past 16 is a crash. $717: Changes second level from Green Grove 2 (02) to any of the above. $718: Changes third level from Green Grove 3 (03) to any of the above $719: Changes fourth level from Rusty Ruin 1 (07) to any of the above $71A: Changes fifth level from Rusty Ruin 2 (06) to any of the above $71B: Changes sixth level from Rusty Ruin 3 (08) to any of the above $71C: Changes seventh level from Spring Stadium 1 (0F) to any of the above $71D: Changes eighth level from Spring Stadium 2 (10) to any of the above $71E: Changes ninth level from Spring Stadium 3 (11) to any of the above $71F: Changes tenth level from Diamond Dust 1 (09) to any of the above $720: Changes eleventh level from Diamond Dust 2 (0A) to any of the above $721: Changes twelfth level from Diamond Dust 3 (0B) to any of the above $722: Changes thirteenth level from Volcano Valley 1 (0D) to any of the above $723: Changes fourteenth level from Volcano Valley 2 (0C) to any of the above $724: Changes fifteenth level from Volcano Valley 3 (0E) to any of the above $725: Changes sixteenth level from Gene Gadget 1 (04) to any of the above $726: Changes seventeenth level from Gene Gadget 2 (05) to any of the above $727: Changes eighteenth level from Gene Gadget 3 (12) to any of the above $728: Changes nineteenth level from Panic Puppet 1 (14) to any of the above $729: Changes twentieth level from Panic Puppet 2 (13) to any of the above $72A: Changes twenty-first level from Panic Puppet 3 (15) to any of the above $72B: Changes twenty-second level from the Final Fight (16) to any of the above $72C-$83F: Opening screens. DON’T change these bytes!!! $842: SEGA intro? Changing to E8-FB will yield normal screen, while any other byte yields “Congratulations” screen, followed by a crash. $844-$845: Yields “Congratulations” screen with crash if changed. Only 20 crashes whole game $846: Every byte other than F3 yields the “Congratulations (C)” screen $848-$84A: Same as 846 $84B-$9FF: To save time, I will tell you this is more title screen data….kay? ---------------------------------------------- Below is intro movie data ---------------------------------------------- $A03-$B02: Swarm of D8s here. Changing ALL of them will change the movie with Sonic running with Flickies to the C screen and crash. Changing some glitches the movie with ugly lines. $B03: Change it to 76 for a light show  But any other byte is C screen at movie start
$B04: Change it to 00 to make the movie play with sound and no picture. However, any other byte is C screen. $B05-$C04: Pretty much the same as $A03-$B02. $C05: C screen if anything other than 00 $C06: Change it to 00, 01, 02, 03, 04, and the movie plays for 3 seconds with no picture, then a C screen. ----------------------------------------------------------- Below is data I'm ... sort of unsure of ----------------------------------------------------------- $C10-$C11: Holy crap…if you change this, all levels sounds and tiles turn way buggy. $C12: If you change the first half of the byte, the character starts on top of a waterfall in GG1. Change the second half however, and you got buggy sprites (not extremely buggy though) $C13: Change the first half, and only Sonic is a bit buggy. Change the second half, everything $C14: Changing the first half, in some cases will either start Sonic off invisible, or inVINcible. Changing the second half does nothing though $C15: ?? $C16: Glitches if changed. $C17: Changing the first half of the byte causes C screen (sometimes) but other times, it messes up the first green arrow thing the rolls you into a ball and shoots you through gate. Also, changing it to AE will cause strange sprite behavior, and a rolled-up Sonic when gripping the big rings. (GG1) $C18: Gah . . .just a glitch. $C19: Ditto. $C1A: The first half will start Sonic as a yellow square sometimes…other times, it’s a C screen. Second half does nothing. $C1B-$C1D: You guessed it…Glitch! $C1E: Y Halo Thar C Screen $C1F: “Oh, you’re a foul one…Mr. Glitch.” $C20: Nothing? $C21: C screen … however, second half only does nothing. $C22: Nothing ------------------------------------------------- Below are level pointers ------------------------------------------------- $1AB62 Green Grove Zone Act 1 $1AB8C Green Grove Zone Act 2 $1ABB6 Green Grove Zone Act 3 $1AC5E Rusty Ruin Zone Act 1 $1AC34 Rusty Ruin Zone Act 2 $1AC88 Rusty Ruin Zone Act 3 $1ADAE Spring Stadium Zone Act 1 $1ADD8 Spring Stadium Zone Act 2 $1AE02 Spring Stadium Zone Act 3 $1ACB2 Diamond Dust Zone Act 1 $1ACDC Diamond Dust Zone Act 2 $1AD06 Diamond Dust Zone Act 3 $1AD5A Volcano Valley Zone Act 1 $1AD30 Volcano Valley Zone Act 2 $1AD84 Volcano Valley Zone Act 3 $1ABE0 Gene Gadget Zone Act 1 $1AC0A Gene Gadget Zone Act 2 $1AE2C Gene Gadget Zone Act 3 $1AE80 Panic Puppet Zone Act 1 $1AE56 Panic Puppet Zone Act 2 $1AEAA Panic Puppet Zone Act 3 $1AED4 The Final Fight -------------------------------------------------- Text data (found by fabio - this is a .bin by the way) --------------------------------------------------- $215FA-$2165A: Text containing the score bonus and emerald bonus whenever you clear a bonus stage. $21DA4-$22069: Text from the Sonic has passed the level screen. It's divided into 3 sections. The first section contains everything from time taken to Knuckle and Tail Bonus points. This appears in the first 5 worlds and only in acts 1 and 2. The second section only has time taken, ring bonus, and time bonus. This appears in Boss fights and in Panic Puppet Zone Act 2. The last section is the same as the first one except the Knuckle's and Tail's Bonus points don't appear in that. This appears in Gene Gadget Act 1 and 2 as well as Panic Puppet Act 1. $234E7-$2353D: Ending Game Text: Thank you Sonic! You saved us from Robotnik. We are greatful for your efforts. $2392B-$239B3: Intro Movie Text: Go Sonic! You can warp through the big rings with the help of the flickies! Chase after Robotnik and defeat his plans! $23C33-$23C89: Intro Movie Text: Robotnik made my friends like this! I must save them!

Using the infinite power of the emeralds, I can conquer the world! $246D4-$24746: Intro Movie Text: Flickies are mysterious birds. They live in another dimension and can travel anywhere through larger rings. $24C61-$24C33: More text. This appears when you beat Panic Puppet Zone Act 3: As long as I have this final weapon I can conquer the world anytime. See you again sometime Sonic. $24D02-$24D22: Text. You hear it right when you are going to fight the Death Egg: Prepare to fight the final weapon! -------------------------------------------------- Below are palettes for all of the movies. -------------------------------------------------- $24C50-$24C53: Absolute bottom of sky in Flicky movie. The higher the numbers, the brighter it is. $24C54-$24C58: Bottom part of sky in Flicky movie. The higher the numbers, the brighter it is. $24C59-$24C5B: Middle part of background sky in Flicky movie. The higher the numbers, the brighter it is. $24C5C-24C5F: Top part of background sky in Flicky movie. The higher the numbers, the brighter it is. $24C60: Nothing. $24C61: Behind letters of first screen of Flicky movie, and top part. Colours vary on value. $24C62: Outline of flying pink Flicky, and stomach of fat green Flicky. Colours vary on value. $24C63: Pretty much the same as above, but a different part. $24C64: Part of pink Flicky’s feet, and top part of fat Flicky’s stomach. $24C65: Beak and feet of pink Flicky, also very top part of fat Flicky’s stomach. $24C66: Eyes of green and pink Flicky $24C67: Above green Flicky’s feet, and just under it’s head. $24C68-$24C6B: Green Flicky’s body $24C6C-$24C6F: Pink Flicky’s body $24C70-$24C74: Outline in Flicky movie $24C75-$24C78: Nothing….? $24C79-$24C7B: Ditto? $24C7C-$24C7F: And again. $24C80: Outline of text in first Flicky movie screen $24C81: Background of second movie screen $24C82: Nothing. $24C83: Center part of Robotnik’s stomach in second screen $24C84-$24C87: More of Robotnik’s stomach, his arms, and a button on his machine $24C88-$24C8B: Middle, sides, and more of arms on Robotnik $24C8C-$24C8F: Face and vest of Robotnik….also his main capsule. $24C90-$24C93: Robotnik’s hair and gloves…also sides of capsule. $24C94-$24C97: More of Robotnik’s gloves, more of the capsule, and a big yellow thing on the right. $24C98-$24C9B: Lots of background junk in Robotnik screen $24C9C-$24C9F: Lines in capsule, and another button. $24CA0-$24CAF: Nothing. $24CB0-$24CBF: The first four bytes control text colour in Robotnik screen…the other ones do nothing. $24CC0-$24CDF: Nothing $24CE0-$24CE3: Controls third and fourth screen in movie with Sonic. Changes the background, border, and area behind text. $24CE4-$24CE7: Changes area under trees in third and fourth screen $24CE8-$24CEB: Changes trees and bushes in third and fourth screen $24CEC-$24CEF: Same as above, but different parts $24CF0-$24CF3: Changes one type of tile on the ground in third screen, plus a leaf of the trees $24CF4-$24CF7: BG tiles, and outline of FG tiles in third screen $24CF8-$24CFB: Stream in third screen $24CFC-$24CFF: Other type of tile in third screen, part of stream, and BG tiles $24D00-$24D03: Part of the robots, and background stuff. Bit of outline of FG tiles too. $24D05-$24D08: The rest of the robot in the third screen $24D09-$24D0B: Yet more of the robots. $24D0C-$24D0F: MORE of the robots. $24D10-$24D13: Mouth and shell of robots. $24D14-$24D17: Changes colour of the Sonic blue in third screen $24D18-$24D1B: Changes Sonic’s face and outline. $24D1C-$24D1F: Sonic’s shoes, ears, and mouth $24D20-$24D23: Sonic’s shoes $24D24-$24D27: Outline of tiles and stream on fourth screen $24D28-$24D2B: One type of tile and stream on fourth screen $24D2C-$24D2F: The explosion of the robots (colour) $24D30-$24D33: Top of stream, and outline of text $24D34-$24D37: Hair of Sonic $24D38-$24D3B: Skin of Sonic $24D3C-$24D3F: Shoes and mouth of Sonic $24D40-$24D43: Outline of Sonic’s shoes in fourth screen….also background and Sonic’s hair in final screen. $24D44-$24D47: Sonic’s hands in final screen. $24D48-$24D4B: Outline of Sonic in final screen $24D4C-$24D4F: Part of dimension ring and all floor tiles in final screen $24D50-$24D53: Outline of ground tiles in final screen $24D54-$24D57: Background wall, cliff, and tree trunk in final screen $24D58-$24D5B: Outline of walls, bushes, cliff, and trees in final screen $24D5C-$24D5F: Cliffs, wall, bushes, and Sonic’s shoes in final screen $24D60-$24DA0: Changes palettes in “bad end” movie (offsets are pretty close, but not exact) $24DA1-$26000: All of these bytes pretty much have to do with all of Sonic’s animation. Changing them all to one byte will cause glitches and a C screen. However, by changing a few, I’m sure you could mix up the animations. (again, these offsets aren’t exactly, but are very close) $26000-$26400: Not sure what they do…but they have to do with the Flicky movie itself. Crashes when I change them. $26400-$26600: More Flicky movie…however, these bytes seem to control the first screen only. $26700-$267B0: Controls “bad end” movie after Panic Puppet 3 where Sonic is flying with Flickies. Try to avoid changing these bytes, unless you know what you’re doing. $267B0-$26820 (roughly): Really weird…they don’t CRASH the above movie, they just make it glitched…different bytes have different effects. $26830-$26890: Changes the text in the final movie screen before credits. Text table is below (very basic one) Very confusing, as changes each byte in a row seems to change every second letter….anyway: 41=A 42=B 43=C 44=D 45=E 46=F 47=G 48=H 49=I 4A=J 4B=K 4C=L 4D=M 4E=N 4F=O 50=P 51=Q 52=R 53=S 54=T 55=U 56=V 57=W 58=X 59=Y 60=Z $268A0-26920: Changes first and third bad ending screen. $26920-$2693B: These bytes have different effects, but the most notable one is the one that changes all the sprites in the first two bad end screens. $2693C-$26989: Controls the “good end” movie. $2698A: Wow….this one byte will mess up the text at the end of final movie. $2698B: C screen no matter what you change it to. $27120-$27140: Tells Sonic how to roll on the first rolly thing in Green Grove 1. Change them slightly, and you can easily work out a pattern (note – this could be useful for level editing) ------------------------------------------------------ Below are menu bytes. They look rather strange....but meh. ------------------------------------------------------ $27DA0-$27DB0: While these may look normal, they are not, Changing them will change the speed at which the main menu icons turn “Start” “Sound Test” “Controls” Also, this affects the waviness of the “Level Select” words in the Level Select menu. $27DB0-$27DE0: Same as above – however, as you change these, you will notice the menu icons getting closer together. $27DE0-$27E00: Same as above again – however, you will now start to notice a change in speed of the level names when you enter a level. The higher these bytes are, the faster it is, however, the lower they are, it is slower. $27E00-$27E60: As you change these, you will now notice that as the icons on the menu are turning, they almost look “stuck” together. NOTE * : As $27DA0 and on change, Sonic controls will start to “stick” in different directions, and he will not move. Watch out. $27E70-$27EA0: When these are changed, the white “light” that shows your current choice on the main menu vanishes. Also, the left and up-left direction on Sonic lock-up. Finally, the level name appear after Sonic is in the level, and very briefly. $27EA0-$27EF0: When these are changed, only two icons will appear on the main menu – one will be “hiding” behind your currently selected one. Also, the level select nearly stops bouncing. Right and up-right directions now lock up on Sonic. $27F00-$27F40: The level name stops appearing altogether, and the down-left control locks up on Sonic. $27F40-27F80: Right locks up $27F80-$27FB0: Nothing really changes. $27FB0-$28000: Only one icon turns in view on main menu, level select gets choppy. $28000-$28040: Only one icon can even be seen now. $28040-$28080: Down-right locks up. $28080-$280B0: Down locks up. $280B0-$28100: The whole control locks up, level select is twitching. $28100-$28140: Level select is finally still…. $28140-$28240: Nothing. IN A SUMMARY: All of the above have to do with the menu, level select, and Sonic speed. No other sprites were affected in the process of testing. So moving on… $28250-$282B0: No matter what these are changed to, they will glitch up the graphics in every level. Freaky. $87500-$A0000: This is what controls Tails and Sonic in levels. We need more info on this though, so feel free to help us 
(thanks to fabio for the following graphics info )
$A4C80 - $A507F: Spike Ball graphics $A5080 - $A523F: Lighting Graphics that some of the cannons from Panic Puppet Zone Act 2 shoot out. $135A20 - $13C420: Flicky Graphics. All of the Flickys graphics are here and they rotate 360 degrees as you scroll down. $13C9E0 - $13CCD0: The pictures that you see in a item box. They order they appear in are: 1UP picture, 10 Rings Picture, Yellow Shield?, Blue Shield?, Invincibilty, Shoes that increase your speed, and Flame Shield? $13CD50 - 13CF90: The points graphics you see when you send the Flickies through the Dimension Ring. The points are listed in order like this: 100, 200, 400, 800, 1600. $141DE0 - $143DDF: Pause graphics that appears where you rings are when you pause the game. All of it's frames are there. $143DE0 - $143EDF: The graphics for the little Sonic picture that you see in the bottom left of the screen which is where the number of lives are. The blank space is where the number of lives goes. $143EE0 - $143FDF: The RINGS graphics which appears in the top left of the screen in the actual game. $143FE0 - $1440DF: The Flicky picture graphics that appear in the bottom right of the actual game. The first picture is a Flicky that is still captured by a robot while the one next to it is free. ------------------------------------------ Below is music data (thanks to Tweaker for the data, and me for the names  )

$C0214: Tempo of Green Grove 1….higher the number, slower the song. $C0219-$C021F: These bytes like…change the whole song. $C0224 and $C0227: Only change the first half of the bytes…they disable sound channels. $C0225 and $C0226: Holy ... I changed these bytes, and it gave the song a bubbly effect. Cool!! Try A7 A4 for a really cool effect. (don’t use FX FX though) $C022B and $C022F: These are strange….they add a guitar in the background. $C0238: Change this, and different zones songs will play with Green Grove 1 (example: AC plays Rusty Ruin 1, DC plays …. Spring Stadium??) I’m sure if you disable all the sound channels and just change this, you could somehow “remix” the other zones’ songs. However, it COULD control what song is played in the act…hmm. $C0239: Changing this will make part of the end of Green Grove 1’s song interfere halfway through. $C023B: Sorta the same as $C0238, except a different instrument….I think different bytes have different effects as to what song plays in the background. $100200-$100270: Huh? Causes C screen on Green Grove 1 …glitches Green Grove 2, and all other levels break. $100270-$100300: Changing this lets you move in all levels for 1 second before C screen. $263CBC: Change it to 00 to disable jump throughout the game. Any other byte leaves it the same. $267690-$269800: Graphics of the Green Grove Zone. The starting point is correct, I’m not fully sure about the ending point of the data however. Note that this does not affect things Sonic can walk on…the checkered tiles and bridges stay the same. The next pile of bytes have to do with the graphics and tiles of the levels. Each string of 16 bytes makes up one 32x32 tile…each cluster of 4 bytes makes up a 16x16, while each byte makes up a 8x8 tile. If all this is gathered, it will give us the tile data in the ROM….which is a BIG step towards an editor. PLEASE NOTE THAT THE PICTURES SHOW THE 32x32 TILE.

It appears Gene Gadget is stuck in there, then all of the levels going 1 2 3 2 1 3 1 2 3 2 1 3 etc. Keep an eye on this thread...I plan on updating it with more level data soon Any comments?

$267690-$269800: Graphics of the Green Grove Zone. The starting point is correct, I’m not fully sure about the ending point of the data however. Note that this does not affect things Sonic can walk on…the checkered tiles and bridges stay the same. If you want to edit the checkered tiles and others, I have them bolded at the bottom of the data, |

| Interesting find SNN. With the data you just posted, I was able to create a Boss Rush mode in this game by making the first 7 levels of the game Act 3.
I can't wait till you find the bonus stage data. It would be nice to change the number of rings required to move on in the bonus stage. Good luck.  |

| I've been searching for graphics all day today and here are the notes that contain the addresses as well as descriptions of the graphics. Maybe it will be useful for editing the graphics sometime. I found these graphics by using Tile Molester.
$A4C80 - $A507F: Spike Ball graphics $A5080 - $A523F: Lighting Graphics that some of the cannons from Panic Puppet Zone Act 2 shoot out. $135A20 - $13C420: Flicky Graphics. All of the Flickys graphics are here and they rotate 360 degrees as you scroll down. $13C9E0 - $13CCD0: The pictures that you see in a item box. They order they appear in are: 1UP picture, 10 Rings Picture, Yellow Shield?, Blue Shield?, Invincibilty, Shoes that increase your speed, and Flame Shield? $13CD50 - 13CF90: The points graphics you see when you send the Flickies through the Dimension Ring. The points are listed in order like this: 100, 200, 400, 800, 1600. $141DE0 - $143DDF: Pause graphics that appears where you rings are when you pause the game. All of it's frames are there. $143DE0 - $143EDF: The graphics for the little Sonic picture that you see in the bottom left of the screen which is where the number of lives are. The blank space is where the number of lives goes. $143EE0 - $143FDF: The RINGS graphics which appears in the top left of the screen in the actual game. $143FE0 - $1440DF: The Flicky picture graphics that appear in the bottom right of the actual game. The first picture is a Flicky that is still captured by a robot while the one next to it is free. Note that some of these addresses may not be exact but are close. |

Originally posted by fabio Lovely. The main one I was looking for here were the pictures in the item boxes....you succeeded in finding these, and many more. I shall add these to the main data list and credit you for it. To everyone who is helping (fabio, Tweaker, etc.) Thank you very much. I had first wanted to do this as a solo assignment, but realized it would be much too difficult. When we get enough information, we'll have to make an editor for this game. Still so much data to find though .... over 600000 bytes of data won't be quick to crack. EDIT: Added about another 200 bytes of tile data for Green Grove. You guys do know, that once all the tile data is cracked, that will be a huge step towards an editor? I didn't think so Eventually, when most of the data is cracked, I will start posting what each tile in the game is made up of (the bytes that is) (edited by S.N.N. on 07-02-06 12:34 PM) |

Oh, and bad news guys - I tried using a text table to find the text in the ROM, however, it appears the words are not complete. Jump to $26830 and you will see what I mean. While in game it says "AS LONG AS I HAVE THIS FINAL WEAPON, I CAN CONQUER THE WORLD ANYTIME. SEE YOU AGAIN SONIC." in the hex editor, only every second letter appears. Unless I am missing something, I don't really have a clue where the other half of the words are. ... Yet. (of course, my text table consisted of capital letters only, but meh )

| I found something interesting today and last night. Last night, I downloaded a corruptor and started corrupting the ROM between the addresses $70000 and $A0000. The game plays normally except for one major difference. There is no sight of Tails or Knuckles. That's right, the disappeared from the face of the island when I corrputed it with random bytes.
I further investigated it today by limited it to $70000 to $80000. Tails and Knuckles still appeared. Then I tried from $80000 to $90000 and Tails only disappeared but not Knuckles. Narrowing it down again, I tried $87500 to $90000 and Tails disappeared. If you try to corrupt between $80000 and $87500, both of them will still appear. Also, when you approach the area where Tails is at in Green Grove Zone Act 2, the game will freeze. We should take a look between the offsets $87500 to $A0000. I corrupted the game by changing most of the bytes to 00 and 01 instead of random bytes. Before I forget, I heard a disassembler is a better tool for hacking instead of a corruptor. I've been researching for a good one that is free but had not much luck. Do you guys know of any decent disassemblers that are free? |

| @fabio: Good find. I don't think this controls bonus game data, but most likely either the X Y and Z positions of Tails and Knuckles, or some sort of script thing that controls them. I will look further into this, unless you would like to |
