So far I've tried the following tools and patches
in combination, in the following order:
1) Extreme fastrom, LM saving process etc
2) Addmusic (Romi's)
3) Romi's spritetool
4) BTSD .44
5) Sample tool
6) BG Scroll rate setting editor
7) LevelASM + INIT v1.4
8) DSX.asm
9) (included with dsx) garble.asm
10) No sprite tile limits
11) Mode 7 Gameover screen
12) Extracted, inserted GFX. Extracted, inserted ExGFX (LM)
13) Moved around stuff on the overworld (LM)
14) Smallhacker's extended overworld names patch
So far I see no screw ups. I predict that it'll remain this way.
What other tools are
often used in SMW hacking which modify the ROM directly with ASM hacks? The 'major' tools have high priority right now.
My blog. I could post stuff now and then
My
Assembly for the SNES tutorial (it's actually finished now!)
