Comedian hacking a rom

[bongobong]

Hi there,
I'm James. I'm writing a comedy show for the Edinburgh Fringe. Part of it is to do with video games and I'm trying to put a pixel sprite of me into a SMB3 for the NES.

To make it playable, I'm assuming that all I need to do is to recreate the sprite sheet here but replacing Mario with a version of me.


I already got some help on making some sprites from E-MAN on this board who did a superb job.

What I need now is to know.
a) Whether those are all the sprites I need to create
b) what format they need to be in to put them into SMB3?
c) Whether there is anyone on here who can help me edit the ROM to put them in there. I expect I'll be playing the game with OpenEmu.

Any advice, greatly appreciated.
James

What an interesting idea, will certainly have to look out for you when you are up. I can remember toying around with hacking years and years ago. Will try to remember what I used, was a tile editor of sorts. Ill have a hunt this evening anyway see what help I can be.

ah. Thanks Anyone who can jump in and tell me what format the sprites have to be to put them in and how to put them in would be most appreciated.
