Try to insert this code in your routine then:

		bset	#2,$22(a0)

		move.b	#$E,$16(a0)

		move.b	#7,$17(a0)

		addq.w	#5,$C(a0)

^ Truth be told, I can't imagine why that would help. While the OST is different in Sonic 2 than it is in Sonic 1, I can tell what it is by comparing it to Sonic 2 code:

Set rolling flag (I've already done this)
Set Sonic's y-radius to $E
Set Sonic's x-radius to $7
Move Sonic down five pixels

When you suggested calling Obj01_DoRoll, that code was already included in that routine, so I've already tested this. Unfortunately, none of that changes the fact that the monitor break code is looking for the rolling animation. Without the location of that code, any other attempt will be futile. Hell, I could be wrong and the code might not be looking for that animation at all, but I've set most every other aspect of rolling except that. I know a similar routine exists in Sonic 1 -- is it Megamix that lets you run right through monitors when at high speed? -- so I'm sure the answer's out there somewhere.

[Oerg866]

Well, I then suggest to make a few checks for different animations comeing after the rolling check, like this

1. Check for Rolling animation
2. Check for running animation
> if yes, if speed is over nine thousand then jsr theroutinethatbreaksmonitors
3. check for your custom animation

etc.

And yes, it was megamix that let you do that. (I still have that leaked source somewhere so I could take a look and see how it works, if tweaker grants me permission to do that and share my impressions, that is)

[Thorn]

Oerg, I appreciate it, really... but you're still missing the problem. I don't know where the routine to check if a monitor should be broken is. All I've found is the routine that checks for if a monitor should be treated as a solid object, which isn't the same; I can't make a branch to theroutinethatbreaksmonitors since I don't know its name. I know that the routine checks for the rolling animation, since the rolling status doesn't cut it, but I don't see any other lines in the nearby code that check for the character's current animation, so I have no hints as to where to look.

Also, just to let you know, running isn't what I'm looking to have break it... this is, courtesy of DNXDelta.



(not as choppy in-game... I threw that AniGIF together in ten minutes just to make my question more clear)

[snkenjoi]

Thorn; SolidObject_Monitor_Sonic and Touch_Monitor are the only two places you need to edit.

Also, feel free to come back. You are a welcome presence in the channel.

[iojnekns]

I agree.

And that animation in motion is something special!

Touch_Monitor

THIS. Thank you good sir, it works now. The funny thing is that I'd used Find to get to Touch_Enemy, right below Touch_Monitor, in order to make the attack destroy badniks. However, I'd had Find set to scroll through the code backwards for whatever reason, so Touch_Enemy showed up at the top of the screen instead of the bottom. If I'd've been searching forwards, Touch_Enemy would've been at the bottom, and Touch_Monitor would be above it on the screen, so I would've known that such a routine existed.

Ooooh. Now I see. Oh well, I fail at understanding problems =P Sorry

[beanDude]

Oh, hey... I'd rather not start a whole freakin' topic on this...

... but is there any easy way to remove the vertical boundary limits in a Zone with said limits (such as the GHZ) ?

[Destructiox]

If you're looking to just remove them, go to Resize_GHZ and just replace the whole thing with an 'rts', I did that with Marble Zone 1 resizing and it worked a charm.

For some strange reason, I'm seeing no results from varied attempts at doing what you said...
... There's something I'm missing...

Then perhaps you need to extend the size of the level. My best guess would be to open up lvl_size.bin find the location of ghz and the act you want,(should be at the begining) and the figure which bytes handle the width of the level, an which handles the hieght of the level and try extending the hieght.

I have a problem in Sonic 1:

I'm trying to replace the art for Eggman in SYZ. But I don't know how to do it. I already changed the mappings just fine, but the art isn't loading.

When I put the label for the new art in the Pattern load cues.asm, the ship art changes in every level, not just SYZ. and the alt art routine that I made doesn't work either:

toyboxboss2:

		cmpi.b	#4,($FFFFFE11).w&#59; is level syz?

		bne.s   toybox_boss2   &#59; if not, branch

		lea   	(Nem_SYZBoss).l,a1

		jsr	 Loadplc2		  &#59;



toybox_boss2:

		lea	(Nem_Eggman).l,a1	&#59;

		jsr	Loadplc2

So, how would I go about doing this?

Well for one, "$FFFFFE11" is not a zone, its the act. Change it to "$FFFFFE10".

[Aka Mekon]

Change this:

cmpi.b	#4,($FFFFFE11).w; is level syz?

...into this:

cmpi.b	#$402,($FFFFFE10).w; is level syz?

This checks the third act of spring yard (because the boss is in the third act)

[Malevolence]

cmpi.b	#4,($FFFFFE11).w; is level syz?

...into this:

cmpi.b	#$402,($FFFFFE10).w; is level syz?

Lies. Instead you want this:

cmpi.w	#$402,($FFFFFE10).w; is level syz?
