another option would be to just continue the horizontal bar pattern - this should border the top of the screen with the lower half of a bar, and the bottom of the screen with the upper half of one.

also, since Wily is the known end boss and is currently in control of the RMs, it would be more appropriate to have the Dr. W logo instead of the Dr. L logo.  The only times other logos are used is when the other person is thought to be the mastermind (see: MM4 and 6)

I'll try both ideas out and see how ppl like them.

As far as the logo, none of the games start outwith the villain's logo in the center. Since this is supposed to represent a screen in Dr. Light's lab I thought it would be appropriate to have it use the "Dr.L" logo before it turns to "Dr.W" logo later on. =)

take another look at mm2, 4, 6, and 7.  2 and 7 have Dr. W from the start, 4 has Dr. C, and 6 has Mr. X.

6 didn't switch to Mr. X until after you defeated the robot masters.

Mine tastes just as funny.

I'm going to go with the Dr.L logo because of the display in MMPU and 'cause I like it. Besides, I'm not going to put the Dr.W logo on that screen at all. When the Wily stages become available I'm gonna put a big-ass skull there. =)

4th Draft Version A:



4th Draft Version B:



Which one's better?

It's like a dead heat among all the forums I've gotten feedback from...

Incidentally, this is pure win:

Here's the 5th (and maybe final) Draft:


(the mugs are temp of course)

I'd also like to announce that I will be attempting to place a new ASM hack into the stage select screen that will display the name of the robot master at the bottom of the screen when you place the cursor on his panel. It will probably be a huge hassle, but meh, i'll enjoy doing it. ^_^

As you all know I'm trying to display text when the stage select cursor is on a portrait. I've found that there is a routine that chooses what stage to go to based on the values in 2 ram addresses. I want to use a variation of this to choose which text to display.

So I figured that I should find the routine that is executed when I press the controller buttons. But, I'm having trouble pinpointing the code. The problem is that the ram address I need to check is constantly having an ROL applied to it.

Do you have any other suggestions?
