[Practice ROM] Gadd Warp 

# Practice ROM: Gadd Warp

--------

This guide is an introduction to Luigi's Mansion's practice ROM: Gadd Warp. It will go through the basics that allows you to practice everything you need.

## 1. Download & patches

First off, you will need to get yourself a regular Luigi's Mansion JP/PAL ROM.

The patches are available to download here: [Gadd Warp 2.2 JP](https://www.mediafire.com/file/48beklitt9u3izz/GaddWarpJP2.2.xdelta/file) & [Gadd Warp 2.2 PAL](https://www.mediafire.com/file/mhyve1uahgwgljj/Gadd_Warp_PAL_v2.1.xdelta/file), then you will need to patch your Luigi's Mansion JP/PAL ROM using [xdelta patcher](https://www.romhacking.net/utilities/598/). Click [here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_n9M6amzZbk) to watch the tutorial

Once you have your ROM ready put it on your SD card/USB drive

## 2. Nintendont settings

⚠️Before you start ⚠️

Nintendont settings are very important, you might experience crashes/glitches if you don't have the right settings configuration. It often happens if Cheats or Unlock Read Speed are turned on, you should turn them OFF.

Make sure to copy these setting bellow, Native Control & Memcard Emulation ON. The later allows you separate your actual disc saves from Gadd Warp's save.

## 3. Basic ROM settings

To practice the room of your choice, you can select any room by selecting Room Warp, any boss with Boss Warp etc...

- To unlock the elemental medals, go to Settings/Special -> Advanced Settings -> Spawn Items -> Elemental medals
- To unlock Boos, go to Settings/Special -> Settings -> Mansion Settings -> Boo Spawning -> Turn ON

You can choose whatever element you want by pressing A on the machine in the middle of E.Gadd's lab

Feel free to explore the lab! You can get more misc options if you talk to E.Gadd, you can change the background music by pressing A on the computer on the right, and visit room by entering the different doors!

## 4. Practice

Once you selected the room you want to practice, you can reset/heal Luigi/warp back to the lab by scanning. Pull the Gameboy Horror and check the list bellow for the action you want to do:

- **Reset a room:** Scan the ground
- **Heal Luigi/Return to lab:** Scan any furniture in the room
- **Clear the room:** Scan the ceiling

Loading a PAL disc on an NTSC console

There are 2 possible methods for loading a PAL disc on an NTSC console.

[Method 1: Swiss (GameCube & Wii, Only for Normal Mansion)]

- Boot up Swiss as you would normally.
(Either through an Action Replay disc + SD Media Launcher, Save Game Exploit, etc.)

- Press B and then A on the Eject Icon

- Take out the Disc (if any), and insert the PAL disc. Then Press A to select DVD

- Press A on the Game, then Press X to access the settings.

- Apply these settings:

Force Video Mode: 480i

(if you're using component cables or an HDMI adapter, set it to 480p instead)

Force Horizontal Scale: 1:1

- Press B, then navigate to Save & Exit, then press A. It should say "Config Failed to Save!" but don't worry about it, the settings will apply, but you need a GameCube SD Card adapter to save the settings.

- Press A to boot the game, and you should see another message pop up saying "No Writable device found", don't worry about that either. You should see the game boot up, and enjoy!

Note: Make sure you're using a Memory Card that has your PAL Save!

[Method 2: Nintendont (Wii Only, Only for Hidden Mansion)]

Nintendont is allowed for all PAL categories. You can boot the PAL disc through Nintendont without tweaking any settings, but to make it look a little better, apply these settings:

Video: Force

Videomode: Force NTSC

(Optional) Force Progressive: On (If you're using component cables or an HDMI adapter)

Then once you boot it up, you'll see it looks similar to what you would see playing the NTSC version.
