It's going on a year since this project was started on another forum, but I wanted to showcase it to a bigger ROM hacking community.
STORY: In Galena, OH, an Xbox 360 lands on a hill (Political Pear, thanks for the idea!) and a teenager named Jordan investigates. After going, an Xbox 360 controller tells him he is destined to destroy Bill Gates before he takes over Earth in 2009. As he goes through cities, he gets friends to help him defeat Bill Gates. First and foremost, the "gas station" intro is replaced with the Blue Screen Of Death. In the attachments, there is a screen shot. Second, all of the window "flavors" were completely changed. They are now Normal, Grape, Pumpkin, Cherry, and Blueberry. Third, the PSI powers, of course, have altered names. Example, PSI Fire is now Burninate. Fourth, close to all items have been changed. For now, it is just generic drug store ones. Well, since I am finishing up the next patch, here's the newest one for the public... http://www.filefactory.com/file/14f8b1/ (edit by freedos: hyperlinks are sexy) EDIT: Eep, I slipped and submitted! DOUBLE EDIT: Here's the list of characters and locations for those who are wondering: Ness - Jordan (duuuuuuh!) Paula - Addy Jeff - Patri(c)k (can't fit the whole thing in the game) Poo - Zach Pokey - Taylor Picky - Johnny The Minchs - Johnny's grandparents King - Gator (my dog, obviously) Tracy - Ben Ness's Mom - Jordan's Mom (again, duuuuuuuh!) Lier X. Aggerate - Nick Buzz Buzz - XBOX 360 controller Apple Kid - Dom Orange Kid - Marc Tony - Dwaine (Patrick's brother) Bubble Monkey - Hobo Blue Blue Cult - Confucious Guys Mr. Carpainter - The ghost of Confucious Zombies - Liberal protesters Hint guy - Police officer Everdred - Mr. Westerville -------------------------- Onett - Galena, OH Twoson - Westerville, OH Threed - Gahanna, OH Fourside - Columbus, OH Moonside - Submuloc, ?? Desert - Middle of Nowhere, ?? Summers - Outer Banks, NC Winters - Northern Canada I probably missed a few characters, but, yeah, go play it ...

When you expand the rom, what do you expand it from and expand it to? | |||

I'd try EBExpand to expand your ROM to 4MB with little text block marks, then Lunar Expand to make it hit 6MB. That's what I do, anyway.
The EB hacking community is weird because we want to keep our patches as small as possible because we all have 56Ks. I think it'd be better if we just made the sacrifice of adding 3MB of empty space to the patches to make the original ROM bigger. |

All i get is a message saying somthing like"The file is not a usable document or batch file." | |||
Radiation UFO Since: 11-19-05 From: Techno City, The Moon Last post: 6488 days Last view: 6428 days |
| ||
So, genius, why don't you drag and drop the ROM into the EXE?
Well. That's what I do. |

if the size of your EB ROM is now 4MB that's because it expanded it | |||
