TMNT3 Title Hack help

Post by xeorix »

Hi!
I would like to change the text in the title of Turtles 3 from "Project" to "Projektet"
I know this can be done, since i've seen others change the title, but I've searched both the rom and the net but without success.
I cant find where the data that is building the title is being held.
You guys have helped me before and I hope that you can do that again.

cheers

EDIT: I give up on trying to find the title in the hex. I will try to change the graphics instead. (My original idea was to just move the tiles around by modifying the hex)

The classic way to figure out how to modify static screens is to get very familiar with FCEUX's debugger. It will let you place a breakpoint when a specific tile is written to a specific location in PPU memory, which will in turn let you figure out where that data is coming from.

In this case, I'd recommend using any tool that will let you convert the game's CHR to a image format that you can view natively in a image editor.
