While rediscovering Yoshi's island with my daughter, we noticed something was wrong with the colors of the Yoshis, as the map colors didn't match the colors in the levels... and my daughter is very serious about her Yoshi's colors. This led me to find this hack, which fixes that and more! Thanks, Mattrizzle. By the way, this hack is apparently made to work with the "Yoshi's Island (V1.0) (U)" ROM. From what I understand, this ROM is not a good dump as it's not in the No-Intro database, but is from the older and less accurate GoodSet / GoodSNES. From my experience, GoodSet ROMs also get harder to find with times, as they seem to be slowly disappearing. Thankfully, the patch seems to work fine on the No-Intro ROMs as long as you make sure to first add a 512 byte header. Tested with "Super Mario World 2 - Yoshi's Island (USA)" and "Super Mario World 2 - Yoshi's Island (USA, Asia) (Rev 1)". Note that in this hack, the Yoshi's colors were fixed by following the Yoshi's colors on the maps, which is the opposite of what the GBA version did. Then again, thinking about it, I believe it makes more sense the way it's done in this hack, to go through the classic Yoshi's colors first (green, red, blue and yellow, which were all of the Yoshi's colors in Super Mario World), leaving the new colors for later. | |||
