I unlocked a secret level on Mario 64 DS!
I'll post pictures soon. Maybe even a video if this takes a big interest.

Really? Well, since you didn't even give us a simple description of the level you found, I don't know what to think.
#80397 - josath - Fri Apr 21, 2006 11:23 pm
Did you find the uber-secret level also? I found that too. It has lots of secret stuff!!! But I'm going to be vague and not really say anything about it. Except that I'm awesome.

I'll tell after. I've finished making the video. Now im going to upload it to some hosting place. My webcam is a joke! I just saved it and the size of it is over 1GB! I'll go convert it now to wmv.
Sorry for the quality of the video. It's difficult to play and control the camera at the same time...

Hey, if it works for that game, it's probably one of the easier ways. :) You can play in the MPH - First Hunt demo's beta testing level that way too (although it has more than just the level...let's see...the model for the level, collision data, node data, the spawnable stuff - enemies and what not).
Of course, changing the level without changing all the other stuff causes strange effects.

I have made some other amazing tricks as well. Like walking in water, doing back flips in water, sleep in water, swim anywhere, make enemies give stars etc etc. I'll post some videos of that if you guys want it...
Also im going to work on metroid prime hunters next since that looks easy. Mario Kart DS is abit hard and I worked on that a long time ago for such a long time. The other games I just don't really care about...

#80519 - m2pt5 - Sun Apr 23, 2006 4:39 am
Just because your GBA slot was empty and you have the real cart in the slot means nothng. You could be using a hacked stub, similar to the way the MKDS "forbidden tracks online" hack works. (Once you boot from the hacked stub, the flashcart can be removed.)

if you dont tell us how did you get in that level, you'll be banned :P
#80548 - justatest - Sun Apr 23, 2006 1:07 pm
And here's me thining that GBADev was a free, open-source homebrew community where everyone shares knowledge.
@shaz, if you want us to think you're "cool" then try actually telling us what you've done instead of showing off these crappy grainy vids.
#80549 - shaz - Sun Apr 23, 2006 1:23 pm
Ok, i'll explain...
The second video was kinda fake, when I showed the proof that I was only using the game card. I used my flash cart to play the game and took it out while it was in memory.
This is what I did:
1: Dump the game
2: Use NDSTool to unpack everything from the dump
3: Replace all the maps which are bonus levels (fly switch, metal switch, slides etc etc) with the test maps
4: Pack everything up with NDSTool
5: Run the copy

When I use dslazy to unpak then pack (with no changes), it doesn't work.
Am I doing something wrong? Does it have be through command line or something?
#80554 - shaz - Sun Apr 23, 2006 1:40 pm
DSLazy will work. I found out that sometimes it wouldnt work and sometimes it would boot. Even without changes it wouldnt boot for some reason. But now it works everytime no matter how many hacks I put in (Walking in water, Backflips in water, fly with the chair.)

Could you maybe provide an IPS patch to play the test level? That would be convenient for anyone with the original ROM dump to try it out and still be perfectly legal.
#80581 - quadomatic - Sun Apr 23, 2006 4:18 pm

mhh wtf???
#80590 - shaz - Sun Apr 23, 2006 5:51 pm
Heres the same test map with a few changes...

Which levels exactly did you replace with which test level?
#80615 - shaz - Sun Apr 23, 2006 9:36 pm
Keep trying. Change the filename of the rom etc. Sometimes it works
And welcome to DSDev :)

Okay, I got it working just using ndstool. =)
I replaced Bob-Omb's battlefield, it was pretty cool. I opened the cannons but couldn't get in them. I did manage to flutter-jump onto one of the tall platforms using the moving platform though, and watching those giant metal balls roll around aimlessly was cool.
Now I'm wondering how you do the swimming everywhere and other cool stuff like that.
#80637 - jas20 - Mon Apr 24, 2006 9:02 am
Ok I am able to get in the test 'level'.
Mine keeps crashing though :( I think it is becuase I am using levels, not secrets. I just need to find a easy access secret (princess slide, mario cap).
I fell in a hole and can't get out, is it supposted to be full of water or something?
Thankyou!!
#80645 - DarkKiller - Mon Apr 24, 2006 2:16 pm
Hey everyone, If everything is fine with the moderators and everyone else, I'll be posting a IPS patch shortly for Mario 64 DS so you can try the level out. Be sure to have the latest dumper when dumping the game. I've heard the older versions create messed up files.
Please, only use it if you own the game :).

Yeah, you should do it with Bomb-Omb Battlefield - but it turns out wierd :P
Using Princess Secret Slide and Pinguin Race House will make it crash - use the battlefield instead!
And yeah, it works with SC (SD).
#80666 - shaz - Mon Apr 24, 2006 5:22 pm
The one I used is the switch outside the castle. (you know, the one near the waterfall outside the castle).
That one works best and you will be able to get into water without crashing the game.
