Late notice about my blog theme.

Yeah...  Well, I forgot to tell you guys this, but I am building a theme for a friend for his blog and I am using my account to test it on...  It'll take a while for me to finish it, so just bear with me while I get it done

Then I'll make me a theme.

Stupid Hard Drive...

Well, I've been wanting to release the next demo of NRMB for a while now, but I've come very close to the last beta version for my testers and that might become the actual release...

The reason I said wanting is because my hard drive has crashed (lots of bad sectors) and I have lost alot of my data - along with a couple hours of work on NRMB, as well as some school documents/projects etc...

I think I'm up and running again and the beta should be out by this weekend.

Oh, the findings...

I have been spending my free time searching through the NSMB ROM for some different images and palettes that I've (along with a few other hackers...  like Dirbaio, the current NSMBe Designer...) been looking for, for what seems years now... (I just started NSMB Hacking 3-4 months ago...)  Now that I know that Tahaxan is a huge lump of junk when it comes to "4bpp Linear, Reverse-Order (noted through this article as "4bpp" images)" images, I now hardly have any choice but to use NSMB Editor and take my chances decompressing the images/palettes without destroying my ROM permanently...

One think that I have accomplished, though, is being the first hacker (AFAIK) to find the proper palette for NSMB's Logo (on the title screen)...  Since I stopped using Tahaxan-Tihaxa, I have noticed that I am actually getting 4bpp images to display properly with palette files that have multiple sub-palettes, something that I like TileMolester for...  Anyway, enough "Blah, Blah, Blah", and I'm going to cut to the chase of this blogging...

Welcome to my new blog...

I will be posting my finds about New Super Mario Bros. and my progress with New Retro Mario Bros. here...

Expect to see lots of stuff here...

Check out the NRMB Website here: NRMB Website (The site is still under construction, but it should be complete within a week or two... (I am editing it live from the host's server, so the latest version of the site is always there...))
