Last view: 4112 days 		I started a Castlevania 1 hack long ago, and I was wondering if anyone ever figured out how to edit the level structure and path? Ideally I'd like to even add rooms if at all possible.

Last view: 4112 days 		Actually, I used to have a later version with way better graphics and level design based partially on Vampire Killer for the MSX, but I lost it in a harddrive crash.

Last view: 4112 days 		Ok guys this is what I found so far... and it ain't much.

0x 1FB33 : when I screw with this pointer table I can change where the background data is read from. Take those first two bytes, 00 08.
If I change the first byte to say 02 ( the value of the second pair ), when I start the first stage it reads in the background data from the second stage's rooms.
If I change it to 01 or 03 it takes me to weird places.

0x 10010 : when i messed with the values over here ( starting with F2 7F ) I was able to shift the the background tiles up or down. When I tried F1 the tiles shifted down on the screen, and F3 had the opposite effect.

I think I'm gonna need more data, I think. If I had Dan's notes from when he made Stake, I think I could figure this out. ~wishful thinking...

Last view: 4112 days 		I see. Do you know where exactly the background tile data is? For that matter, where the enemy/candle, etc. are?

Last view: 4112 days 		Hmmm... interesting. I'll keep sniffing around.

Optomon! Do you know of any hex editors that can compare two files and display the differences in each?

Dr.Mario! Is there anything I should know about editing the map? Actually I've never thought to try it before.

I'll work on that in the future. Thanks.
I'm still messing with the data optomon provided. Hopefully I can figure something out. =)

I don't know about you, but in general LttP and SM are younger, more well-known series (and overall, more fun; I can't enjoy Castlevania at all, your milage may vary).


Younger... more well known?
Are you on crack? LttP and SM:M3 (that's the correct title) are both about the same age as Castlevania as a series and as individual games. And they're not much more well known either. Most people I know that remember Zelda and Metroid also remember Castlevania, Megaman, and even Kid Icarus equally as well.

Last view: 4112 days 		I agree with that.
It just seems strange that anyone would call those younger as Super Castlevania IV came out about the same time as those two mentioned.
Sorry if I was alittle harsh in my reaction.

BTW. Super Metroid's own title sequence says implicitly that Nintendo is presenting Metroid 3. The whole "super" thing seem like an obvious marketting strategy.

If a game isn't fun than it isn't worth playing no matter how pretty it looks.
