| When it comes to GB/GBC hacking, this is where those docs are gibberish to me. Not to say that I can't understand them, but rather how do I even begin to use that information to attempt to find what I want? For instance, I want to change the title screen for a Pokemon game. I can load up BGB in debug mode, enable the VRAM viewer, and pause the game prior to the intro screen for showing up. I know at some point, the pokemon code between 0:0000-0:3fff (or maybe even x:4000-x:7ffff) will load up from the ROM the intro screen and put it between 0:8000-0:9000. How can I find that code (or even breakpoint it)?
To change text, one needs to do relative searching assuming the text is not completely graphics based or compressed. If it is compressed, you are up the creek with that approach. To change graphics, there are tools that will allow you to explore a ROM to find the graphics. This only works as long as the graphics aren't compressed and you are viewing them in the right bbp so that it won't look convoluted. I don't mean to hijack servbot's thread, but I could use guidance on the first item, which will probably break open the second and third items. For servbot, he needs to let us know what he wants to do so that we all can guide him in the right direction, and help him break into it so that he is welcome to this community. Otherwise, he'll be intimidated by the community. |
