Hey guys,

The hack I'm working on will let you switch between Mario & Luigi using the Press R to Switch Mario and Luigi Overworld Uberasm. I am also applying the SMB2/SMA Style Luigi Scuttle & a modified version of this Luigi Physics patch. In addition to making these changes, I want to disable Air Flight/Max Speed:

Code

org $00D66F|
	db $80 ; Disable air flight/max speed.

The code above achieves exactly what I want, but I want its effect to only apply to Luigi (leaving Mario in his Vanilla state). As far I can tell, in order to apply something only to Luigi, I should use the RAM address below:

Code

$0DB3

I've been messing around with it a little, but I'm still learning to make patches and my Brain's pretty shot, so please be patient with me. Your help would be greatly appreciated!

*Post Edited multiple times (because I'm a dumb-dumb)

This isn't a question for the request forums since you can just edit the patch to make it happen. I'm going to move this to the help forums for that reason.

Edit: deleted this reply because it wasn't relevant. Decided to edit original thread post instead.

How about this:

Code


assert read1($00FFD5) == $20
!bank = $800000

org $00D66F
autoclean JML hijack

freecode
hijack:
    LDA $0DB3
    BNE CODE_00D67D
	BCC CODE_00D67D				;$00D66F	||/
	LDA.w $149F					;$00D671	||\ Don't reset the takeoff timer if it's already set.
	JML $00D674|!bank
	; BNE CODE_00D67B				;$00D674	||/
	; LDA.b #$50					;$00D676	||\\ Set the takeoff timer.
	; STA.w $149F					;$00D678	||/


CODE_00D67D:
LDA.b #$0B					;$00D668
JML $00D67D|!bank

Hmm, I wasn't able to get this to work. Any changes I would need to make before inserting?

Seems to work fine for me, Mario can fly but Luigi can't. Did you try on a clean rom?

Are you using SA-1? The code appears to be LoROM exclusive (although conversion would be easy).

Finally was able to try it on a clean rom. Worked perfectly! Now the fun begins finding the conflict...
