Hi all, i recently uploaded to acmlm a mario hack i found on the net called mario mania, it comes with the ips but with a .bin file as well? Anyone know exactly what i need to do to get this hack to work? It will not work unless i do something with the bin file included.
Hopefully someone can shed some info on this, here is the link http://acmlm.no-ip.org/uploader/get.php?id=220 Please someone let me know, this looks like a great hack. |

The BIN file makes the 0x10 byte NES header into a 0x200 byte header. Open the BIN file in a hex editor, then open an original SMB1 ROM and delete its header. Select the whole file and cut (or copy) it to the end of the BIN file. Save and it should work. Then apply the patch and it will work. By the looks of things, he made this added header to store a little more ASM into the ROM. I will not give you a patch in this form to a regular ROM because it will contain too much data of the original SMB1 ROM, which is why he did it this way to begin with. |

i think you have to prepend the .bin file and then apply the IPS patch. i dont think you have to strip the original file's NES header
but i suspect the rom relies on a 'trainer' which not all emulators support.. |
