This doesn't really relate to sm64 hacking.... But I'm someone who cares about educating helpless people with computer basics. So your abliged to let me go with this.

@ mortal:

---- RGB, what it is ----

All the colors that you see on your computer screen are made from a combination of- Red, Green, and Blue. This combination is called RGB.

There are 255 (counting 0) possible red, green, and blue.

So the brightest color would be- 255 (red), 255 (green), 255 (blue). This brightest color is white.

And the lowest color would be 0 (R) 0 (G) 0 (B). The lowest color is black.

If you wanted a blue color you would have:

0, 0, 255

But this is in numbers, what we need is hexidecimal values.

So you convert using these aglorinths~

Number-Hex aglorinth: 0-0, 1-1, 2-2, 3-3, 4-4, 5-5, 6-6, 7-7, 8-8, 9-9, 10-A, 11-B, 12-C, 13-D, 14-E, 15-F.

Hex-Numbers aglorinth:

(x1*16)+x2

For example, if you had a hex color.... Hex Color example: 00 FE 00

Apply the aglorinth: 00 (F*16)+E 00

Then we substitute: FE = (15*16) + 14 = 254,

And finally we have: 0 254 0. This is a color that is almost completely green. 0 255 0 is the "complete" green. To get the complete green you would go: 00 FF 00. Convert that using the aglorinth, and you have 0 255 0.

If you wanted black you would go: 00 00 00, which is 0 red 0 green 0 blue

In summary: 00 FF 00 is green. 00 00 00 is black. 00 00 FF is blue. FF 00 00 is red. FF FF FF is white.

There are lots of programs online with which you can select colors in hex. So it's okay if you don't understand all of this.

For example, the Color Chart link at the top of this very page provides the hex codes for various colors.

I'm glad to see that other people are attempting to take over VL-Tone. Nothing would own harder then a working SM64 editor.

Yeah seriously, what I see he could mean:
- Adresses where the data is similar in both
- Similar rooms
- roms lol
- etc etc

Wouldn't it be completely different, due to differing compression and programming methods? Not to mention extra data in the (more kick ass) DS version.

I guess, but I believe it is {in the loosest way possible} a port.

It's a remake for a completely different system, I think they even re-wrote it from scratch.

I imagine it would actually be easier to hack than the original because the ROM is probably much more organized. They've had practice making 3D games.

Well, guys after messing with mario's colors for forever, I finally got myself a luigi!
here are my results:
Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting


He looks great!!!!!!! Best results I have seen of luigi, what do you guys think? here is the code, replace the before with the after at the offset 0x823B64:

Before:00 00 7F 00 00 00 7F 00 00 00 FF 00 00 00 FF 00
28 28 28 00 00 00 00 00 7F 00 00 00 7F 00 00 00
FF 00 00 00 FF 00 00 00 28 28 28

After:00 00 7F 00 00 00 7F 00 FF 00 FF 00 00 00 FF 00
28 28 28 00 7F 00 FF 00 00 7F 00 00 00 00 7F 00
00 00 00 00 00 FF 00 FF 28 28 28

That should make it to luigi, i was just playing with teh colors at that offset so i dont know what to do, and the gloves are blue but it was an accident.... And I don't know how to fix them.

This thread is practically dying so I am trying to keep it alive. I am currently working on a mario 64 music editor and then will move on to an actual game editor since this music editor will be my first editor ever. By the way can anybody give an opinion on the luigi clothing swap? Anyways I actually made Waluigi and even Wario. I also wanted to ask you guys if you could read the old old old thread called "Mario 64 amazing stuff" and try to read the texture swapping part since I will direct you guys to the page. Since it was done with a v64 rom I dont know how to apply to z64 and I also don't understand it.

Well, you ARE doing a pretty darn good job I guess...

An opinion? Well, good job changing him, but the colors are a little off. I'm pretty sure there are two values for colors: one for color and one for shadow, and it looks like you made them both the same for his shirt, which makes him look flat. Also, his overalls are a little on the purple side. But you did say you messed with the colors forever, so congratulations getting him pretty close. Better than I could do...

Also, the completely black ground looks really out-of-place and makes the ground hard to see - maybe you should make it dark gray instead?

Well he looks flat cause of the angle and good guess there is too seperate things for shadow and color. I just don't mess with the shadow cause I really screw it up when I try so I am going to finish a few other things in hacking it before messing with the shadow. You mean a little of because of the shadow right? because then I really don't know how to fix it until I start messing with the shadow. Also, It was just me messing around with the colors, thats why the background is black. I also made the castle completely black but had to make it full of lines so that all the parts could be visible. And thanks I really do think that I am doing a good job but I am not going to be able to be the next "VL-tone"

Well, VL-Tone doesn't seem to be dead anyway. He made this movie:

And if you look at his profile, it says his last activity was just 1 month ago.

Is anyone going to start work on a super mario 64 editor? We can all make it progress by providing information... Vl-tone actually use to have his editor for download!! But he took down the link due to limited features and the amount of bugs in it.
