Need help on Megaman X4-6 Color Modding

[irongland_]

Alright everyone: i talked recently with xMrNx and having his permission for post the next.
On the next link you can download all of his color mods: https://www.mediafire.com/folder/7mz...ameshark+Codes)
The main reason for sharing it's because those codes was originally avaible on his youtube account, today closed. I can saving from the abyss the codes, so i think somebody else can be interested on testing this as me. Have fun. All credits goes to xMrNx.

PD: a few screenshots in-game are on this post for orientation purposes.

Thank you so much for share them! i tested those codes and they work perfect (i'm using the Japanese version of the game).

I DMed them about this, but I didn't have the original GS code I made. I instead made a .lua script for Bizhawk that does it and attempts to deal with an issue I had with the dash afterimages in X4 (there's 2 sets of addresses that can color mod something. One only works for that checkpoint in that stage, and the other should affect it but doesn't. I opted to mod color values I found in the GPURAM).

Also, here's most of that turned back into a GS code (for some reason, I had it in my head I couldn't do that).

If you want to find another way to affect the dash afterimages (or for some reason, you've decided to to use conditional color mods for every stage/checkpoint), here's what you should look for:

80320000 80328032 80328032 80328032

im sorry but, can you give me at least a step by step instructions on how to do it? im not that familiar in using artmoney since i haven't used that program yet. and about the code in megaman 8, do you have a link for that? by the way, im color modding zero. thank you again sir.

To do most ASM hacks you need to have something in RAM to use a debugger on, it doesn't always have to be a direct speed code but if it's not you will need to do alot of tracing to figure it out. Let's stay on topic with the thread and not go all over the place with you asking for ASM help unless you post in your own thread.

[jin299]

Helder If I remember correctly I was previously trying to hack a speed hacking code for the game Mega Man 8 for the psx format but could not find the correct memory address for the code, now I'm aware you have already created speed modified variations of the code using asm to do so but in order to hack any new code in asm you need to first have an existing ram code hacked for the game right.

[Helder]

I made such a code for Megaman 8 and the same rules apply for the X series. Simply use Artmoney to attach itself to the emulator then do a 16bit or 2byte search for unkown, then just change colors by switching weapons and do a different than search with the occasional equal to when you don't change colors to bring the results down.

[snmiglight]

does anyone here knows how to color mod megaman x4 to x6? i recently watched xmnrx's video tutorial on youtube but i can't seem to make it work. anyway, im using epsxe and psx emulation cheater. i also have GBA color picker. thanks in advanced.
