Hey everyone, I was working on getting SM64 Randomizer to work on Wii VC, and along the way I decided to look into that annoying darkness issue that SM64 and some other VC games have. The fix is very simple to do, so I figured I would share it here.
Whether or not this fix would be allowed for leaderboard qualification is up to the mods, but since this is beneficial to game enjoyment regardless of leaderboards, here's how you do it.
- Unpack your SM64 wad (I use a program called ShowMiiWads)
- Open 00000001.app in a hex editor
- Search for the hex "00 00 00 BE 00 00 00 BE 00 00 00 BE". There should only be one search result. In my file, the location is at hex offset 0x16B0B0.
- Replace each BE with FF and save the file.
- Repack the wad and you're done.
Enjoy!

Changing the colour scheme on your capture card wouldn't change the colour setting on your TV.
Is there any chance that any discoveries made could get Usamune to run on Wii VC?
If you wish to replace your twitch highlights with reuploads, please edit your already verified run rather than deleting the verified run and making a new submission. This makes it a lot easier for us to track which submissions are reuploads and should be less work on your part as well.
