Oh boy, where could this go next?

Happy Birthday, Super Luigi! Is it just a coincidence that your post count matches the year in which you were born? If so, that's awesome!

Our story so far:

When you are absolutely bananas, you forget how to walk and control ninjas.

693. It always seemed odd to me that no standard water stage uses the same red and purple palette as the Enguarde token bonus stage. That, along with the unused Puftup sprites, shows that Rare had more ideas for water levels than what they ended up using in the final release.

644. True. The Grinch may have stolen a bunch of stuff, but he couldn't take away the spirit of Christmas spirit from all of the Whos.

606. Perhaps. If you move three lines around, it can also become DCVI, which, if converted to Arabic numerals, is 606.

600! In Roman numerals, DC.

You did too, Cyclone.

532. Apparently SimianSegue did. He did create the topic after all. As for his reason behind choosing that specific number...I dunno. Perhaps he thought 999 septillion was too large of a number?

512. The size of a typical SNES ROM copier header in bytes.

Fortunately, an ample amount of bytes in the US version 1.0 of DKC are never touched by the game's code. Here's a list of offsets that I've gathered over the past several years: 007A21-007FFF (0x5DF bytes) 00FE81-00FFAF (0x12F bytes) 0174BA-017FFF (0xB46 bytes) 01F3E8-01FFFF (0xC18 bytes) Very weird...

Cross-posting this from elsewhere. Why we use 8659 and 00F5? 8659 and 00F5 combine to form the SNES HiROM pointer $F5:8659 (PC address 358659, which points to a custom-made blank music track. There is normally blank space at this address in an unedited ROM. Here is the structure of the block: ROM $F...

I released the update to Boss Blitz in July, but somehow failed to update this thread. So, without further ado, here is the download link: DKC - Boss Blitz (R1.5).zip - 114 KB Note: As with the previous version, this patch is to be applied to the U version 1.0 Donkey Kong Country ROM, without a head...

282. Too tired to think of anything witty to say...

Here are some of my observations: 2:12:42 : The Rareware/Nintendo Presents sequence uses the DKC1 fanfare. 2:13:25 : The Zingers on the Crocodile Isle map do not have turning animations yet. The first world's name is written with a space separating "GANG" and "PLANK," which was r...

Did you configure your SRAM directory within Settings... under the Emulation menu? It is important not to confuse this with Saves, which is for savestates, not Save RAM (srm) files.

280. I will be older than time we get to 5000, if it ever happens at all...

That version of the fanfare plays on a win screen that only appears when a player beats Kastle KAOS in two-player contest mode. (Presumably, as I've never played through the aforementioned mode in DKC3) EDIT : It is used. See this video: https://youtu.be/kI68lRonMek?t=43s If you use PAR ...

In the final version, very crucial code and data exist in that last 512KB (PC addresses 380000-3FFFFF) including, but not limited, to the following: ⋅ Object animation data ⋅ Object graphic pointers ⋅ Object hitbox data ⋅ Level function code and pointers (code...

Perhaps the title on that concept sheet is "Klubba EOLB." EOLB stands for End-of-Level Boss.

The first glitch is due to the way the end of level target is coded. It doesn't disable collision with objects, since the prizes need to remain collectible. The same bug can happen if a Barrel Cannon is placed too close to the target--the Kongs will bounce up into the Barrel Cannon, interrupting the...

Your second reason is close to being correct. Each song has an SPC command which sets the echo reverb for sound effects. Only one instance of the sound effect data exists in the ROM.

Here's a breakdown of how many points various events add to your score: 1 Each Banana collected 10 Red Extra Life Balloon collected Continue Barrel broken Barrel broken Animal Crate broken (except for Enguarde's, which gives 0 points) Each KONG Letter collected Kritter defeated Gnawty de...

3,332 is my highest score after playing the competition cart a few times today. I made it to the crawlspace just before the Continue Barrel in Bouncy Bonanza.

Is your ROM a headerless smc file? If so, change its extension to sfc.
If the ROM's extension is smc, Asar will assume it has a header. If it is sfc, Asar will assume it doesn't have a header.

(I tested this patch with headerless ROMs, but not headered ones! )
