The following article is a RAM map for EarthBound Zero.
RAM
| RAM | Purpose |
|---|---|
| 0x0006 | Part of an instruction for "copy protection". $E5 on checksum failure. $00 to bypass. "Correct"/non-hack value unknown. |
| 0x0015 | Used for assigning area to objects? |
| 0x0060 | HP target value for stat increase during level up |
| 0x0611 | Looks like the first EXP byte, but changing it even mid-battle will result in insta-death. Anti-cheat? |
| 0x0818-B | The X and Y coordinates, stored strangely; see below |
Coordinates
The coordinates in RAM to not correspond to coordinates in the rest of the game. To convert it, run this Python code (in this example, bytes $818-B are `80 19 C0 2D`):
# replace with the values from the RAM ram_x = 0x1980 ram_y = 0x2dc0 real_x = ((byte1 << 8) | (byte0 & 0xC0)) >> 2 real_y = ((byte3 << 8) | (byte2 & 0xC0) - 0x2000) >> 2
SRAM (save data)
Unknown
- 0000-13FF: Unknown
Checksum
The 2-byte checksum is calculated by subtracting each byte after it (0x300 for each save, so 0x29E bytes to subtract), then running it through mod 0x10000. Here is an example Python program that calculates it:
def calculate_checksum(handle, base = 0x1700):
handle.seek(base)
checksum = int.from_bytes(handle.read(2), "little")
calculated_checksum = 0x0
for number in range(0x300 - 0x2):
calculated_checksum = (calculated_checksum - int.from_bytes(handle.read(2), "little")) % 0x100 ** 2
return calculated_checksum
calculate_checksum(open("file.sav", "rb"))
- 1400-1401: Checksum
Main data
