F-Zero big hack = CLOUD OCEAN = Custom Track, Music, Tileset, Colors, Names...
Here's the new version 0.2 of my F-Zero SNES hack, code name: "G-One"
Download link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1xogK...
The archive contain 2 files:
the patch, that modify the F-Zero ROM with all the modifications of G-One 0.2 that you can see in this video
"flips", the patcher, to apply the patch you prefer on your F-Zero ROM.
To use flips to patch the ROM, you need:
the F-Zero ROM (hearderless, so the most widespread, which is 524,288 bytes). Copy your ROM before patching it because flips will modify the ROM, without coping it first.
to follow the very simple steps of this video (thanks to the author Tomatobird8): • How to apply or create patches using Float...
NOTICE THAT: I'm not allowed to give a link to download the F-Zero ROM, for the simple reason that it's forbidden (or this video will be deleted instantly).
On the other hand, I want to make it clear that I don't want to incite you to practice illegal emulation (although I find it a wonderful way to easily discover old and beautiful games, so it makes it easier for everyone to access art... and of course it allow hacking, that is a wonderful world of incredible artistic creations I just discovered!).
So please make sure you own the original F-Zero game before doing anything illegal.
I'm also not responsible for any problems you may encounter using the files I share.
Since the 0.1, I added:
Custom visuals for road and road's background. :P
Custom music! This is my first official composition ever. :')
Custom title, this track has now its little name ingame: Cloud Ocean! :D
For the integration of the music I used the same method than for my previous F-Zero SNES music hack: • "Mario Kart 64 - Result #1 (Win)" F-Zero S...
For this music I had to modify 2 instruments of the game (using an hex editor): the first loud bass and the second slapping bass (I love it), because their original definition didn't allow to go that low in the octaves. (I advise you not to finish the championship, because the end music is broken because of this modification...)
This is why I would like to thank Catador in particular for telling me where the instrument definitions were in the game code, but also for taking the time to explain how they were defined (ADSR, etc.).
