Is there any way to start the player character (I.E. Link from Legend of Zelda or Samus from Metroid) on full health? ____________________ Sorry for the stupidity. That jerk will be dealt with in the most insane way possible. |

Yes, there is. Every game is specific. This is editable in hex, using the hex editor. Usually there is one byte or two bytes, which control the health. In A link to the past, there are two bytes at around 27000. Value is 18 18 = 3 hearts. 20 20 = start with 4 hearts, 28 28 = start with 5 hearts etc. So just need to calculate what value for 20 hearts. Collecting heart pieces or containers is NOP automatically.
You can actually control the entire starting srm. Nintendo made a custom sequence of bytes for Alttp, which starts the game with practically all items and 15 hearts. So you can also make Super Metroid start the game with high jump boots for instance. This is one byte only. Default is 00, edit is 01. Complex values. Start the game with 444 rupees. This needs two bytes, to determine the value. Or values 00 to 07 = bottle (empty, with fairy, green, blue, red potion, bee) etc. So when you find the starting "srm" values, everything is possible. These values usually stand together cronologically. For instance in Alttp: once you find the bow, it follows as in the inventory, boomerang, hookshot etc, eventually comming to magic and health. |

I was actually referring to the original NES games. Using the SNES references works. I just don't know how to hack into the SRAM ____________________ Sorry for the stupidity. That jerk will be dealt with in the most insane way possible. |

Links health is somewhere in the $600 area within ram. If you start a new player, look for either 22FF or 23FF, I forget.

I'm aware that this might be under ASM, but I want to start the characters on full health each time a game is started, whether through password or starting from a save ____________________ Sorry for the stupidity. That jerk will be dealt with in the most insane way possible. |
