youre not bugging me, its what you made the thread for.

open the ROM in SMILE.
load up the room you want to copy.
look at its "number" in the yellow rooms menu.
tell me what the room number is and i can help you better.

*edit* actually, i know this might be annoying, but its really late here, i'll post back tomorrow if you just leave the rooms number

so your room is 7990D, and the next room is 79938. those are the values you need to know.

open your ROM in a hex editor, if your ROM is unheadered:
copy the bytes from 7990D to 79937 (79938 is the start of the next room)

if your ROM is headered:
add $200 to each value and copy the bytes from 79B0D to 79B37

paste the data into an empty space in the file, it should look like "ff ff ff ff...", for example; i think 7EBB0 would work.

if you use 7EBB0 and your ROM is unheadered, open the smile/file/mdb in notepad, add 7EBB0 to the list and save it.

if you use 7EBB0 and your ROM is headered, take $200 away from the value (making it 7E9E0) and do the same.

you can use a different empty space if you like and use the same method.

then open your ROM in SMILE and it should be done
