Airman, try this.
Download Sub's latest files to get the most current exe (Sub kindly made the decompress game available). Create a new directory on your computer and copy your bk rom to it. Run the exe and click the bottom button for Decompress Game (it seems you are picking decompress file at the top). Select the rom file in the directory you just created. The process will chug through the entire rom and your directory will be filled with all sorts of bin and txt files. Look at the txt files - and don't expect every file to have game text in it. Quote:

This tool is a decompressor and compressor (think of it like WinZip). What you choose to do with it is your business (it can be used for text edits, views, to compress models, anything, I provide the source).
He does say that T-REX comment in BK (if that text is from BK). This can be used as a text editor, if you notice there is a compress feature, and also inject into ROM feature. You can basically look at the .txt files, see which one you want (by name), open up the .bin version in a hex editor, edit it, save it, then inject that file into the ROM at that location. |

Ok, so i CAN edit the ROM's text? By just editing the text in a text file...and then...enject it into the ROM?
EDIT3: I think i got it now.... Technically, you can make your own sandcastle cheats. If only we knew which BIN file they were in..... NEW PROBLEM! THIS time, i don't know where each text file is!!!! Or what its name is!!

If you look in the first post, you'll see I have a listing of text by address. If you use those addresses, you can open up a .bin of that address in a hex editor such as hex edit or hex workshop, edit it, then inject it back into the ROM at that address.

But, this could be used for more than just text, Right?

Sorry guys, I made a bug in inject ROM, please redownload the decompressor and try again. You must specify the address and then inject an uncompressed file to that location.
Yes, this can compress anything into the ROM, models, setup files, anything. Text is just easiest. You can use the source I provided to do anything, new levels, anything. If your ROM is like 2x the size, it's likely because you accidently injected a ROM into a ROM. The order is file to inject, ROM in, ROM out. |
