Ha.. much better. Thanks for your help ateam!ateam wrote: ↑Wed Jan 29, 2025 1:40 pm Did you see this screenshot from my post (viewtopic.php?p=192538#p192538)? I'm guessing not. It shows how you can find these icons, including the exact settings to use in Crystal Tile 2.
I also provided a link to guidance on replacing the icon for my modified DP browser. However, the same 11 steps can be followed (more or less) for other VMU icons in the game executable: viewtopic.php?f=52&t=14611#p151960
The only real difference is that you can copy/paste the icons directly out of Crystal Tile 2 and into an image editor of your choice, then save 1ST_READ.BIN.

Re: Samba De Amigo Ver. 2000 - New version
Last but not least.
- Love Love Keywords -
They're many and they're a real pain in the maracass cause it seems like they're totally random (or almost).
Plus, it's something like "Rugby Pine Mushroom" or "Golden Necklace Vegetable Juice"
Characters are in 4 pvr files (1 is alphabet, the others are japanese characters)
I found the location in the 1st_read file. I've tried to replace chars with 2 bytes chars, and it works, but clearly, I need more bytes per word.
Obviously, if I add bytes, I break everything...
Any idea how to handle this ?

This is actually very simple, look at the picture, after understanding these, you can change the address to other places
In addition, at the beginning of the 1st file address: 0x2A6708, there is space 0x1800 which is a system font graphics, if you can be sure that the game is not using it, then you can also use this space to store your text
