Map Requests / Re: Mega Man ZX Area I help.

« on: November 02, 2015, 11:02:35 pm »

I see. Does anyone know a random palette changing cheat so i can start? The only info i can get is that nearly all the levels in this and the sequel use extended slot 2, mode 0 D8011F18 000066F2

And i took out all the files in the ZX rom but i cant find anything resembling a map file, nor do i understand these overlay files. Area I is the only level i have trouble ripping.

Map Requests / Mega Man ZX Area I help.

« on: November 01, 2015, 08:31:04 pm »

I finally figured out how to use GIMP to help me take level tiles from the PSX Mega MAn games. I have no trouble using Desmume's map viewer for the ZX and zx advent series tiles. all except for Area I. the black alpha channel is prevalent in the map viewer and when i try to remove the black from the background, it removes the black from the level tiles too. this is only a problem with the outdoor rain tiles, since I can easily take those tiles without any problem. Can anyone explain how to change the alpha channels for the level backgrounds?

I'd more prefer an easy way I can do this myself, but can anyone help me with this? I can do some of the maps but ones like Sky lagoon and the Intro Stage for 8 are annoying because of the layers.

I'm not sure I understand what you mean by "SNES effects", which makes me doubt I explained myself correctly in the first place.

no i didnt explain myself properly. I remember on a youtube video in a dungeon or something seeing some lighting effects only capable on a 16 bit console like the snes, like the lighting change in the intro stage when the town catches on fire.

Also how does the night palette work?

I'm not sure how to answer that one exactly. You can't just substitute colors from one to the other since the night palette is a bit larger than the day one, and in some stages, the same color might be part of both palettes but not for the same color entry. I just assemble snapshots from both version, it's probably quicker than messing around with the palettes.

I see. some snes effects going on in the game.

Nope, it's all done by hand in Paint (gasp, the horror!)
