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...
