* Format works like this:
** First byte indicates the number of button presses, excluding Right.
** Subsequent bytes indicate the button presses:
*** <span style="color:#808080">0x80 (bit 7) = Start</span>
*** 0x40 (bit 6) = Select
*** <span style="color:#808080">0x20 (bit 5) = B</span>
*** <span style="color:#808080">0x10 (bit 4) = A</span>
*** 0x08 (bit 3) = Down
*** 0x04 (bit 2) = Up
*** 0x02 (bit 1) = Left
*** <span style="color:#808080">0x01 (bit 0) = Right</span>
*** These button presses, excluding Right, are stored in RAM, starting at 0xD100.
** Last byte indicates which bit(s) are set to 1. The use of a bitflag allows multiple cheats to be used at once since they can be ORed together. Note that only the three least significant bits are used:
*** 0x01 (bit 0) = Play the card game after the title screen
*** 0x02 (bit 1) = Have 50 lives when starting the game
*** 0x04 (bit 2) = Unlock all levels except the Lost World.
*** This gets ORed with whatever value is in 0xFFF9 in RAM (which starts out at 0). (In the Japanese version, the RAM address is 0xFFF8 instead.)
** In each cheat code, each button sequence must be followed by Right. Pressing Right in the middle of a sequence does not affect anything.

=== ASM Code ===
==== English version ====
* <tt>1641A-16701</tt> = ASM code to animate maps
** <tt>1641A-1641B</tt> = Get current world
** <tt>1641C-16427</tt> = Get proper pointer to jump to based on world, then jump
** <tt>16428-16435</tt> = Jump pointer table (big endian)
----
** <tt>165DF-165E1</tt> = Northern Kremisphere map animation
** <tt>16436-164C5</tt> = Cape Codswallop map animation
** <tt>164C6-16572</tt> = Primate Plains map animation
** <tt>16573-165BA</tt> = Blackforest Plateau map animation
** <tt>165BB-165DE</tt> = Great Ape Lakes map animation
** <tt>165FA-1661A</tt> = Tin Can Valley map animation
** <tt>165E2-165F9</tt> = The Lost World map animation
----
** <tt>1643F-16481</tt> = Mill animation (Cape Codswallop)
** <tt>16511-15648</tt> = Mill animation (Primate Plains)
** <tt>1661B-16646</tt> = Water animation
** <tt>16647-16681</tt> = Waterfall animation
** <tt>166A7-166D8</tt> = Sheepy Shop animation (most maps, except for Primate Plains and Blackforest Plateau)
** <tt>166D9-16701</tt> = Factory smoke animation
** <tt>16682-166A6</tt> = Wrinkly Refuge animation (most maps, including Blackforest Plateau, Great Ape Lakes, Tin Can Valley, and The Lost World)
 
==== Japanese version ====
* <tt>14910</tt> = Dummied ASM code to animate maps (only consists of a single "ret" instruction), thus removing animated maps
 
Map animations can be restored by porting the code from the GB version, and changing the function pointer so that when it is called, the function is in a different part of the ROM.<br />For example, in the English and Spanish fan translations, which restore the map animations, <tt>125E</tt> is changed to <tt>25</tt>, and <tt>1263-1264</tt> is changed to <tt>00 40</tt>, placing the new function at <tt>94000</tt>.
 
== Level Maps ==
=== Pointer Table ===
Pointer format works as follows:
* First byte contains the ROM bank.
* Last two bytes contain the RAM address. This is stored in ''big endian''.

====Strings====
Note that these addresses are from the Japanese version. Fan translations obviously use different addresses due to differing string lengths.
=====Level & World Names=====
Format:
* Array of bytes that read the proper tiles in VRAM (where the tiles are defined in the next section). For example, <tt>00</tt> will read the first character tile, <tt>01</tt> will read the second, etc. Generally, this is in sequential order, but since this format is designed to load as few tiles in VRAM as necessary, it may read an earlier tile if that kana/letter appeared earlier in the string.
** <tt>FF</tt> indicates a new line.
** <tt>FE</tt> indicates the end of the array.
* Next, the character (i.e. kana, letters, kanji, etc.) table is loaded into VRAM (starting at <tt>8DF0</tt>). This is basically a string of kana, etc.
** <tt>FF</tt> indicates the end of the string.

! Offset !! Text !! Format
|-
|<tt>7DC26-7E222</tt> || Bear || Same as level/world format, except tiles get loaded into VRAM starting at <tt>8B40</tt>.<br />Notice that before the array terminator <tt>FE</tt>, the ROM inserts a newline <tt>FF</tt> right before. However, this is not only unnecessary, but it also causes a bug where tile <tt>FE</tt> (part of a DK Coin graphic) appears for a split second before the actual text does.
|-
|<tt>7E223-7E297</tt> || K. Rool (when defeated) || Same as level/world format, except tiles get loaded into VRAM starting at <tt>8CC0</tt>. Also contains the same bug present from Bear's dialogue.
|-
|<tt>7E298-7E330</tt> || Wrinkly || Same as level/world format, except tiles get loaded into VRAM starting at <tt>8C20</tt>. Also contains the same bug present from Bear's dialogue.
|-
|<tt>7E331-7E4C2</tt> || K. Rool (when entering Lost World or K. Rool's Last Stand) || Format is in reverse order of level format. That is, the array that loads the characters (e.g. kana) into VRAM (this time, starting at <tt>8800</tt>) appears first. Then, the table that uses the correct tiles is second. Also, in this table, <tt>80</tt> must be added, since the code that loads these screens does not do this automatically. For example, <tt>80</tt> will result in printing the first kana that appears in VRAM, <tt>81</tt> prints the second, etc.
|-
|<tt>7E4C3-7E4E3</tt> || Trophy || Similar to K. Rool format when entering the Lost World. However, the characters are loaded into VRAM starting at <tt>9600</tt>. Also, in the array of tiles, instead of adding <tt>80</tt>, <tt>60</tt> must be added to print the correct tile.
|-
|<tt>7E4E4-7E549</tt> || Time Attack || Similar to K. Rool format when entering the Lost World. However, the characters are loaded into VRAM starting at <tt>9300</tt>. Also, in the array of tiles, instead of adding <tt>80</tt>, <tt>30</tt> must be added to print the correct tile.
|-
|<tt>7E54A-7E564</tt> || Bash the Baddies! || rowspan="3" | Same as level/world format, except tiles get loaded into VRAM starting at <tt>8A00</tt>.
|-
|<tt>7E565-7E579</tt> || Collect the Stars!
|-
|<tt>7E57A-7E58E</tt> || Find the Token!
|-
|<tt>7E58F-7E5B7</tt> || Delete game confirmation || Similar to K. Rool format when entering the Lost World. However, the characters are loaded into VRAM starting at <tt>9000</tt>. Also, in the array of tiles, nothing needs to be added to print the correct tile. Finally, the first tile (from <tt>9000-9010</tt> in VRAM) will fill up the screen, excluding the text string, so it should always be a space here.
|-
|<tt>147A8-1490F</tt> || Cast list || All characters (kana, etc.) are loaded into VRAM, so this format is simply a traditional text string, reading the tiles one at a time. There are also various control codes between each enemy/NPC name whose format has yet to be determined.
|-
|<tt>14442-147A7</tt> || Credits || Mostly ASCII format, but a character conversion table exists elsewhere (at <tt>68C</tt>) to convert punctuation marks properly (since it's different from the ASCII format here). Due to the small size of the conversion table, there is no room to allow lowercase letters properly.
|-
|<tt>F57A-F588</tt> || Select game text (file select screen) || rowspan="3" | Uses kana that appear starting at <tt>92E0</tt> in VRAM. In the Japanese version, any byte <tt>80</tt> or greater (typically <tt>FF</tt>) will terminate the string.
|-
|<tt>F589-F597</tt> || Delete game text (file select screen)
|-
|<tt>F598-F5A6</tt> || Game saved text (file select screen)
|}
 
==== Positioning ====
===== VRAM pointers =====
Generally, these are pointers that determine where the text starts in VRAM, and the pointers are little endian. For example, in the bonus screens in the Japanese version, at <tt>16907</tt>, the byte string is <tt>04 9A</tt>, which, when adjusted for endianness, is <tt>9A04</tt>. Changing this value will shift the text in the following ways:
* <tt>+01</tt> = Shift right
* <tt>+20</tt> = Shift down
* <tt>-01</tt> = Shift left
* <tt>-20</tt> = Shift up
 
ROM Addresses:
* <tt>16907-16908</tt> = Position of text on bonus screens
* <tt>9F5E-9F5F</tt> = Position of text for level and world names
** Note: While changing this value will shift the text accordingly, keep in mind that when shifting to the right, the spaces left behind are uninitialized. For example, when exiting a level, the game will print glitchy tiles to the left of the level name since they were originally heart icons. A better way to work around this is to keep this value unmodified, but then write custom code set a to 00, then use the ldi a,(hl) instruction to set the first few tiles to 00 to create blank spaces.
* <tt>F56A-F56B</tt> = Position of text on file select screen
* <tt>15F49-15F4A</tt> = Position of text on Time Attack screen (first line)
** <tt>15F4C</tt> = Number of padded spaces on subsequent lines
* <tt>162F5-162F6</tt> = Position of text on trophy screen (first line)
** <tt>162F8</tt> = Number of padded spaces on subsequent lines
* <tt>9FB2-9FB3</tt> = Top half of ! icon on map screen
* <tt>9FB8-9FB9</tt> = Bottom half of ! icon on map screen
* <tt>9FC3-9FC4</tt> = Top half of DK Coin icon on map screen
* <tt>9FCA-9FCB</tt> = Bottom half of DK Coin icon on map screen
 
==== Fonts ====
* <tt>7E700-7F43F</tt> = Main character table
* <tt>7CBF4-7CF24</tt> = Alternate character table, used in credits and Time Attack
* <tt>B635-B6E4</tt> = Numerical tiles, used in some Bear dialogue
 
== Demos ==
Format is: Button combination, length.
 
For button combinations:
* 0x80 (bit 7) = Down
* 0x40 (bit 6) = Up
* 0x20 (bit 5) = Left
* 0x10 (bit 4) = Right
* 0x08 (bit 3) = Start
* 0x04 (bit 2) = Select
* 0x02 (bit 1) = B
* 0x01 (bit 0) = A

  • Format works like this:
    • First byte indicates the number of button presses, excluding Right.
    • Subsequent bytes indicate the button presses:
      • 0x80 (bit 7) = Start
      • 0x40 (bit 6) = Select
      • 0x20 (bit 5) = B
      • 0x10 (bit 4) = A
      • 0x08 (bit 3) = Down
      • 0x04 (bit 2) = Up
      • 0x02 (bit 1) = Left
      • 0x01 (bit 0) = Right
      • These button presses, excluding Right, are stored in RAM, starting at 0xD100.
    • Last byte indicates which bit(s) are set to 1. The use of a bitflag allows multiple cheats to be used at once since they can be ORed together. Note that only the three least significant bits are used:
      • 0x01 (bit 0) = Play the card game after the title screen
      • 0x02 (bit 1) = Have 50 lives when starting the game
      • 0x04 (bit 2) = Unlock all levels except the Lost World.
      • This gets ORed with whatever value is in 0xFFF9 in RAM (which starts out at 0). (In the Japanese version, the RAM address is 0xFFF8 instead.)
    • In each cheat code, each button sequence must be followed by Right. Pressing Right in the middle of a sequence does not affect anything.

ASM Code

English version

  • 1641A-16701 = ASM code to animate maps
    • 1641A-1641B = Get current world
    • 1641C-16427 = Get proper pointer to jump to based on world, then jump
    • 16428-16435 = Jump pointer table (big endian)

    • 165DF-165E1 = Northern Kremisphere map animation
    • 16436-164C5 = Cape Codswallop map animation
    • 164C6-16572 = Primate Plains map animation
    • 16573-165BA = Blackforest Plateau map animation
    • 165BB-165DE = Great Ape Lakes map animation
    • 165FA-1661A = Tin Can Valley map animation
    • 165E2-165F9 = The Lost World map animation

    • 1643F-16481 = Mill animation (Cape Codswallop)
    • 16511-15648 = Mill animation (Primate Plains)
    • 1661B-16646 = Water animation
    • 16647-16681 = Waterfall animation
    • 166A7-166D8 = Sheepy Shop animation (most maps, except for Primate Plains and Blackforest Plateau)
    • 166D9-16701 = Factory smoke animation
    • 16682-166A6 = Wrinkly Refuge animation (most maps, including Blackforest Plateau, Great Ape Lakes, Tin Can Valley, and The Lost World)

Japanese version

  • 14910 = Dummied ASM code to animate maps (only consists of a single "ret" instruction), thus removing animated maps

Map animations can be restored by porting the code from the GB version, and changing the function pointer so that when it is called, the function is in a different part of the ROM.
For example, in the English and Spanish fan translations, which restore the map animations, 125E is changed to 25, and 1263-1264 is changed to 00 40, placing the new function at 94000.

Level Maps

Pointer Table

Pointer format works as follows:

  • First byte contains the ROM bank.
  • Last two bytes contain the RAM address. This is stored in big endian.

Strings

Note that these addresses are from the Japanese version. Fan translations obviously use different addresses due to differing string lengths.

Level & World Names

Format:

  • Array of bytes that read the proper tiles in VRAM (where the tiles are defined in the next section). For example, 00 will read the first character tile, 01 will read the second, etc. Generally, this is in sequential order, but since this format is designed to load as few tiles in VRAM as necessary, it may read an earlier tile if that kana/letter appeared earlier in the string.
    • FF indicates a new line.
    • FE indicates the end of the array.
  • Next, the character (i.e. kana, letters, kanji, etc.) table is loaded into VRAM (starting at 8DF0). This is basically a string of kana, etc.
    • FF indicates the end of the string.

Other

Offset Text Format
7DC26-7E222 Bear Same as level/world format, except tiles get loaded into VRAM starting at 8B40.
Notice that before the array terminator FE, the ROM inserts a newline FF right before. However, this is not only unnecessary, but it also causes a bug where tile FE (part of a DK Coin graphic) appears for a split second before the actual text does.
7E223-7E297 K. Rool (when defeated) Same as level/world format, except tiles get loaded into VRAM starting at 8CC0. Also contains the same bug present from Bear's dialogue.
7E298-7E330 Wrinkly Same as level/world format, except tiles get loaded into VRAM starting at 8C20. Also contains the same bug present from Bear's dialogue.
7E331-7E4C2 K. Rool (when entering Lost World or K. Rool's Last Stand) Format is in reverse order of level format. That is, the array that loads the characters (e.g. kana) into VRAM (this time, starting at 8800) appears first. Then, the table that uses the correct tiles is second. Also, in this table, 80 must be added, since the code that loads these screens does not do this automatically. For example, 80 will result in printing the first kana that appears in VRAM, 81 prints the second, etc.
7E4C3-7E4E3 Trophy Similar to K. Rool format when entering the Lost World. However, the characters are loaded into VRAM starting at 9600. Also, in the array of tiles, instead of adding 80, 60 must be added to print the correct tile.
7E4E4-7E549 Time Attack Similar to K. Rool format when entering the Lost World. However, the characters are loaded into VRAM starting at 9300. Also, in the array of tiles, instead of adding 80, 30 must be added to print the correct tile.
7E54A-7E564 Bash the Baddies! Same as level/world format, except tiles get loaded into VRAM starting at 8A00.
7E565-7E579 Collect the Stars!
7E57A-7E58E Find the Token!
7E58F-7E5B7 Delete game confirmation Similar to K. Rool format when entering the Lost World. However, the characters are loaded into VRAM starting at 9000. Also, in the array of tiles, nothing needs to be added to print the correct tile. Finally, the first tile (from 9000-9010 in VRAM) will fill up the screen, excluding the text string, so it should always be a space here.
147A8-1490F Cast list All characters (kana, etc.) are loaded into VRAM, so this format is simply a traditional text string, reading the tiles one at a time. There are also various control codes between each enemy/NPC name whose format has yet to be determined.
14442-147A7 Credits Mostly ASCII format, but a character conversion table exists elsewhere (at 68C) to convert punctuation marks properly (since it's different from the ASCII format here). Due to the small size of the conversion table, there is no room to allow lowercase letters properly.
F57A-F588 Select game text (file select screen) Uses kana that appear starting at 92E0 in VRAM. In the Japanese version, any byte 80 or greater (typically FF) will terminate the string.
F589-F597 Delete game text (file select screen)
F598-F5A6 Game saved text (file select screen)

Positioning

VRAM pointers

Generally, these are pointers that determine where the text starts in VRAM, and the pointers are little endian. For example, in the bonus screens in the Japanese version, at 16907, the byte string is 04 9A, which, when adjusted for endianness, is 9A04. Changing this value will shift the text in the following ways:

  • +01 = Shift right
  • +20 = Shift down
  • -01 = Shift left
  • -20 = Shift up

ROM Addresses:

  • 16907-16908 = Position of text on bonus screens
  • 9F5E-9F5F = Position of text for level and world names
    • Note: While changing this value will shift the text accordingly, keep in mind that when shifting to the right, the spaces left behind are uninitialized. For example, when exiting a level, the game will print glitchy tiles to the left of the level name since they were originally heart icons. A better way to work around this is to keep this value unmodified, but then write custom code set a to 00, then use the ldi a,(hl) instruction to set the first few tiles to 00 to create blank spaces.
  • F56A-F56B = Position of text on file select screen
  • 15F49-15F4A = Position of text on Time Attack screen (first line)
    • 15F4C = Number of padded spaces on subsequent lines
  • 162F5-162F6 = Position of text on trophy screen (first line)
    • 162F8 = Number of padded spaces on subsequent lines
  • 9FB2-9FB3 = Top half of ! icon on map screen
  • 9FB8-9FB9 = Bottom half of ! icon on map screen
  • 9FC3-9FC4 = Top half of DK Coin icon on map screen
  • 9FCA-9FCB = Bottom half of DK Coin icon on map screen

Fonts

  • 7E700-7F43F = Main character table
  • 7CBF4-7CF24 = Alternate character table, used in credits and Time Attack
  • B635-B6E4 = Numerical tiles, used in some Bear dialogue

Demos

Format is: Button combination, length.

For button combinations:

  • 0x80 (bit 7) = Down
  • 0x40 (bit 6) = Up
  • 0x20 (bit 5) = Left
  • 0x10 (bit 4) = Right
  • 0x08 (bit 3) = Start
  • 0x04 (bit 2) = Select
  • 0x02 (bit 1) = B
  • 0x01 (bit 0) = A
