ROM Hack New ROM hack...

[alex]

Okay, if someone could find a program, doesn't really have to be gui, just not too complicated.
I want something that will unpack .aac files and .atm files.
And I know .bin files are codestrings or something, but is there a program to decrypt it?

ok i will look for them

Thanks, okay here's what I am working on:

A custom Jump Ultimate Stars, I think we should add in characters from other mangas, and I'm even thinking of SSB characters, of course, they have to be unlocked. I might even try to use Master Hand. But that would be probably a no-no. So if you have any mangas to suggest to put in, give me a link of a large sprite sheet.

IMPORTANT NOTE: This will not be translated, which means, go to IGN or GameFAQs and find a translation, I have one and that's how I beat it.

So you DO think that that was a good idea of mine?

Let's make a Super Smash Ultimate Stars.
And instead of the characters powering up and stuff, we could just give them other colors or something.
I've found a way of extracting characters from the game, but I didn't find a way to put images back in.

Question:
Can someone count for us how many playable characters there are in JUS?

 

[MysteriousCookie]

the people who did the fantastic jump translation might know

Yeah, again, not to spoil the party, but you won't be albe to add new "commands" or "attacks" unless you do ASM hacking, thus, it would be pretty impossible. ASM hacking is hacking the game code but in assebly language.

0801: What is assembly language?

No matter what language a game was originally written in, when it is
compiled, it's converted to machine language. Using a disassembler,
you can convert a ROM into assembly language. Each processor type
has its own flavor of assembly, hence NES, SNES, etc will use
different types of assembly.

So, the only thing "do-able" (unless someone knows ASM) is some sprite editing. Like putting a SSJ3 Goku... But you only will edit the hair on the sprites.

 

[alex]

Well, still, if someone can point me in the direction of a ASM tutorial for JUS, then we start I'm tired of changing games.

(Do you watch the Ichigo100% anime, I only find Episodes 1-5, when that weirdo girl comes out, and I forgot about the manga.)

I can find some Wario & Waluigi models, if you guys want.
I really want to see a NSMB mod.

 

[alex]

Well, as litium said, it's 3D models, not sprites, but people have hacked 3D game models before, so maybe it's possible!

And the Pokemon was no-no because no one has realeaed a map editor, I keep checking on PokeComm. and PokeSpam doesn't have anything yet.

 

[Tragoedia181]

are we still doign a hack or what?

 

[alex]

Depends if you all want to work on it. If you are willing to we'll try. So what should we do?

 

[litium]

the hacking scene for the DS is in daipers yet. There are NO specific tools, no tutorials on GFX hacking. And most of the use specific compression systems. So, it's kinda hard to hack a DS game. Also, for ASM hacking on the DS you should check: http://www.heyrick.co.uk/assembler/. You might not get a hold of anything. ASM hacking is bassically editing in hexa the ROM. Is really hard. Unless you can mix commands to make Manaka Junpei a playable characther. If anyone finds a good ARM - ASM programming tut... i would like to see it.


(I've seen the anime and read the manga. The manga is WAY better, it has a closed ending, wich the anime doesn't has).

 

[alex]

(Okay, I should finish reading it, the people won't let me buy it at Waldenbooks, but I have Pretty Face, it's a funny manga)

MmmK, so right now it seems pretty hard, so I don't know... I know some people on PokeComm that are hacking maps right now, but very little, changing buildings to others, but no color, a white house from a pokemart with no texture, through hex I think. So it's coming! So I don't know if I should put this progrss on hold... maybe start later, I don't know... seems hard...

I really wanted to try it.

We can always do a translation rpoyect on Daigasso Band Brothers.

There's already a project for that.

 

[litium]

For Daigasso DX. No one loves the original Dagiasso... poor little thing.

 

[DarthNemesis]

Well, how far did deufeufeu get before switching over?

 

[litium]

He managed to translate all the song's names, and instruments names. We could translate all the text.

Super Smash Bros: Stars.
The Jump Ultimate Stars mod.

Didn't we stated that a complete hack of JUS is almost impossible for new-romhackers like us?. It needs ASM hacking. Two great ASM hacks are Pokemon Brown (GBC ROMHACK, it features tons of things) and Brutal Mario (SNES ROMHACK, Features a billion of new things, and bosses.).

So, i think that we need to focus on small things first... Like GFX/Text hacking/translation.
