    Title: How to restore the Shrinking-Animation (Death Animation)


    Edition: 1st Edition


    Author: Me (Selbi)


    About:


    Sonic 1 contains an unused Animation: The Shrinking Animation. It's most likely an earlier Version of the Death-Animation. You can see this Animation in Sonic 1 Harder Levels or on Sonic Retro. I will tell you one of the easiest ways to add this into your Hack.


    So here we go:


    1.: Open "_anim -> Sonic.asm".


    2.: Search for:



    SonAni_Death1: dc.b $20, $4B, $FF, 0
    SonAni_Drown: dc.b $2F, $4C, $FF, 0


    SonAni_Death2: dc.b 3, $4D, $FF, 0


    SonAni_Shrink: dc.b 3, $4E, $4F, $50, $51, $52, 0, $FE, 1, 0



    3.: Create Backups! and split the Text (if you want):



    SonAni_Death1: dc.b $20, $4B, $FF, 0
    ;SonAni_Death1: dc.b $20, $4B, $FF, 0


    SonAni_Drown: dc.b $2F, $4C, $FF, 0


    SonAni_Death2: dc.b 3, $4D, $FF, 0


    ;SonAni_Death2: dc.b 3, $4D, $FF, 0


    SonAni_Shrink: dc.b 3, $4E, $4F, $50, $51, $52, 0, $FE, 1, 0



    4.: And now, copy everythig from "SonAni_Shrink:" and replace the "...Death1:" and "...Death2:":



    SonAni_Death1: dc.b 3, $4E, $4F, $50, $51, $52, 0, $FE, 1, 0
    ;SonAni_Death1: dc.b $20, $4B, $FF, 0


    SonAni_Drown: dc.b $2F, $4C, $FF, 0


    SonAni_Death2: dc.b 3, $4E, $4F, $50, $51, $52, 0, $FE, 1, 0


    ;SonAni_Death2: dc.b 3, $4D, $FF, 0


    SonAni_Shrink: dc.b 3, $4E, $4F, $50, $51, $52, 0, $FE, 1, 0



    5.: Save and Build! Test it!


    6.: It's a little bit too fast. Fix this:



    SonAni_Death1: dc.b 3, 3, $4E, $4E, $4F, $4F, $50, $50, $51, $52, 0, $FE, 1, 0
    ;SonAni_Death1: dc.b $20, $4B, $FF, 0


    SonAni_Drown: dc.b $2F, $4C, $FF, 0


    SonAni_Death2: dc.b 3, 3, $4E, $4E, $4F, $4F, $50, $50, $51, $52, 0, $FE, 1, 0


    ;SonAni_Death2: dc.b 3, $4D, $FF, 0


    SonAni_Shrink: dc.b 3, $4E, $4F, $50, $51, $52, 0, $FE, 1, 0



    It should be slower now.


    That's it! Have fun!

    This isn't a tutorial this is just 'Cut and paste and you're done'. Thanks for teaching everyone how to cut and paste.

    You can just change the animation to play in KillSonic so it will be shrinking.
