Addams Family (Genesis/Mega Drive) Color Hack

[Fray]

Hi everyone, I'm working on a color hack for the Addams Family game for the Sega Genesis. It all started when I realized that the stairs scenario was bad compared to the Snes version. So little by little, always using the Snes version as a base, I started to change the colors of the game. Other than that, I've noticed that there are some problems with the portraits and with some backgrounds (see images).
And this is where I need your help to complete my hack. I need a good graphic editor tool for genesis, because I usually use Tile molester and I've seen that it doesn't show all the tiles. Surely there will be a way to do this, so please help me.




Issues and possible improvements (mockup):

[Fray]

Thanks to the help of Pyron, LightRayn and tacoschip this project continues. Here is a small update of the project:

• Enhanced some palettes to achieve more colourful graphics (where possible);
• We managed to unpack the compressed graphics to be able to edit it, as shown in the photo;
• Now I just have to edit the tiles, find some more assets and recompress everything.
• And also with the help and attention of tacoschip I fixed a pixel flickering in Gomez's sprite when he's in the waiting position.

And that's all for now.

Looks like a very promising color hack, much more closer to the SNES version indeed!

Thanks, that was exactly my intention

A little update on the project. Thanks to an error in copying the images from gimp to tilemolester I realized that I could use the colors in a different way, and here is the result. These are in-game images, but unfortunately it is still not usable because by inserting the new tiles, the graphics crash in other points of the game. But I think we will be able to do it. Comments, suggestions? You are free to do them.

I'm assuming this requires rom expansion, as most likely your improvements will take more space. IIRC, you just add the new data to the rom.

At the bottom add this line
.aligna 0x200000

New color choices are more fleshy and dramatic.

Hi Tacoschip, I need your help. I still can't get the rom to work. That is, when I run the program to double the rom, the rom doubles but the changes do not appear in the game and also mess up other tiles.
Since I'd rather not double the size of the rom, unless absolutely necessary, another thing we tried is not to double the rom, and to deactivate the pointer table function at address: .orga 0x87a5e, and in this case... other problems. Bearing in mind that I only used 4 files to do some tests, namely: mausoleum, gallery one, gallery two (nonna) and pugsley, then trying to disable all rooms except mausoleum and pugsley, the rom seems ok (i.e. I still haven't found if there may be a point where it gets stuck). Instead if I use mausoleum, pugsley and gallery one, the rom seems ok, but then there's The Games Room, which doesn't work. If I use mausoleum, pugsley and gallery two instead, it's the room The Upper Tomb (inside the mausoleum) that doesn't work. What could be wrong?
One more thing, when I edited the chain sprite in the chain room, despite everything, the edit worked, but then I tried to edit the dollar sprite, also just coloring a pixel black to try, and nothing, the rom crashes. Can there be some anti-piracy blocker? I am posting the code I am using, for more understanding.
If you think it might help, can I send you the files I created so you can better understand what I'm saying?
Thank you.

Incredibly annoying problem. I restarted from a clean build.

To use expanded rom space, we have to find all the old ptrs. If we don't remap the ptrs, we will overwrite / corrupt all sorts of random bytes.

Now if this doesn't work, I might resign and let someone else dissect the problem. But I have yet to look into monete problem.

[tacoschip]

monete works if
- Remove first 0x188 bytes yourself
- Edit this new file in Tile Molester
- Re-add the 0x188 bytes back

It worked!!!       Thank you, thank you Tacoschip for your invaluable help and sorry if I may have abused your patience, it wasn't my intention . I assure you that before asking you I did a lot of tests (as far as I could), but I kept getting poor results. The program worked fine before the rewrite, but with this rewrite, fewer files are needed.
There is another thing I would like to ask you, would it be possible for you to understand why there are 3 levels (the armory, the weaponry, lower gallery ) where there is no music and some sound effects are missing. Would you like to take a look? Obviously when you have time and if you feel like doing it.
To celebrate I'd like to share the discovery of a file I found that isn't used in the final game. The Addams Family logo which is the same as the other versions of the game, only that for the genesis they opted for a big red sprite.

Thank you, thank you Tacoschip for your invaluable help and sorry if I may have abused your patience, it wasn't my intention :-.

I'm not bothered by your asking. I know you're genuinely trying to make it work; I was getting extremely worried that I'm doing something wrong and won't ever provide a working solution for you.

There is another thing I would like to ask you, would it be possible for you to understand why there are 3 levels (the armory, the weaponry, lower gallery ) where there is no music and some sound effects are missing.

I'll give it a look-sie but Megadrive is an area I'm less familiar with. I need to level up someday.

Maybe an oversight, or they were planning a different tune. There might be hidden songs, like 000c, but I'm very unaware of this game / port OST. This will take a lot of experimentation on your end, of which you're an expert on this game.

Hi Tacoschip, can you explain how to place a specific song in a specific room? I downloaded the exodus emulator, which allows me to debug the game, to be able to insert the piano song in the music room, but I don't have the faintest idea how to do it. As for the songs, the song you say is the one from the game over\continue screen. I found a short jingle at the hexadecimal number 00a0 that I've never heard, and in any case I don't know where and how to insert it. However I think that searching for other songs is useless because the "extra" songs I've found are always the same but with a different (and less captivating) intro, and furthermore they are repeated several times, and advancing in the hexadecimal numbers I find the same songs but starting from a different point (plus loads of sound effects). In any case, if there were other songs like in the other versions, I think they would have included them...

[tacoschip]

If you're willing to put up with a debugger, which I can't teach you Exodus, then

Place a breakpoint on 07:fd1a.

Now try finding it in the rom. This will be a lot of trial-and-error, depending on what the RAM looks like.



It's RNC packed. So go up and find the magic signature.

Edit "data_088122.bin", repack, add to build script. Or directly edit that 1 byte in ROM if you're brave.

Hello everyone, small update to show that the project is still ongoing. The latest changes have been made to the sprites of the money, the hat, the "golden thing for vulnerability", the 1up. There's still one song left to put in the music room and that should be it. If I can, I would also like to insert the screen of the Addams Family logo like the one from the Snes. And that's all for now.

Hey Tacoschip,

It's been a while since I reached out, but lately I couldn't use my PC. I'd like to know, just for your information, if you're okay with taking a look and figuring out how to add piano music to The Music Room. My brother couldn't manage it, and the only result he got was making the same music play as in the Hall of Stairs. Another thing I'm asking is if you think it's doable to load the title screen just like the SNES one without going crazy, I mean, making it automatically load the entire screen from the file: data_01aea8.unp. All of this, of course, if you have the time and the willingness to do it. I really don't want to make you do something you don't want or can't do. Thanks in advance.
