Can anyone actually confirm that the base egg really WAS removed from PAL BT? I mean, look at ARHQ's image mod digits list, the base egg's in there... Problem is, we have absolutely no way to test it thanks to the total lack of any working image mod codes for PAL...

The base egg (063c) does not load in the PAL version. At least not the with the color/texture option 0000. AT least I think it's a color/texture option.

I'll start another thread in the hacking section to discuss this because it'll get lost here. I'll call it BT Image Mod / Object Mod Research.

Hope this helps hatrick - or I completely misunderstood what you were asking.

Is there anyway to alter the color of the egg in BK, other than location? I would think there would have to be, unless the game considers each slot in the menu to be it's on location, and those codes hacked in the first big topic hatrickpatrick made just tell the egg to show up in a specific slot, whereas the slot tells the egg what color to be.

The eggs received in BT are recorded different than they are in BK, right? By a counter, right? If that's true, and my memory serves me correctly, the game tells you how many eggs you have, while it keeps track of which eggs you have. IIRC, though the base egg exists, the eggs you pick up don't use it, and instead operate as their own object/image.

If I'm remembering about the counter correctly, that could mean that originally, they did plan to have several eggs in possession at once, perhaps more than one single status screen could hold, and the SNS eggs were extra eggs on top of the ones planned to be in the game. Heck, that even makes the base egg more logical from a development stand point. Having a base egg for such a small amount of eggs never seemed to make sense to me, but if there were going to be a larger amount of eggs later on, it does seem useful to not really separate them, but rather apply a new color depending on location or other identifiers than the egg itself.

Why is everyone smart, but me? I feel unhelpful...

Not sure, but it seems likely. Or possible. Or maybe.

ure not the only one

I thought Ice and Sub couldnt find the BT base egg for PAL so it was confirmed by them that the Base egg isnt there, well thats what i heard....

MikeHive · #**790** 17th March 2007, 02:13 PM

Yeah, that is what they said. But, they also said that 0785 was a freeze digit, and now it looks like it was actually cleverly-hidden data. So, maybe the reason they couldn't find the egg on PAL BT is because Rare hid it.
I can't say I'm inspiring much conviction in myself with that idea, but I guess it's possible.

By the way, sorry for the double post, but I wanted to use the Quote button...

Can I ask something that's been bugging me for a while?

LIKE I SAID THATS WITH THE HI-REZ TEXTURE LOADER THATS NOT THE WHITE EGG JUST THE BROWN EGG WITH THE WHITE EGGS TEXTURE OVER IT INSTEAD OF THE BROWN.

What Hi-Rez Texture Loader?? I thought BT didn't have one.
If it does...
I need to think about that...

bobbynicjr · #**791** 17th March 2007, 02:29 PM

hmm, we need people trying freeze digits in the PAL version, is Hatrick still trying?

Rice Video - you can get it here - is a video plugin for N64 emus that lets you dump and load hi-res textures from/into any game. This is how people have been doing these "hi-res texture projects" for games like Mario 64.

if i had a bleeding action replay and a working brain i'd help

MikeHive · #**794** 17th March 2007, 07:14 PM

GRR!

First that "BK trainer" thing destroyed my BK Rom.
Now I can't get PJ64 to work at all... I downloaded that new version of Rice (I was using the older, non-dumping version already) and now the emu just gives me about fifty errors when I load it up... which is VERY annoying.

Urgh, this is begining to turn into one of those threads that are always in the "last post" section.
