This ROM Hack for Mega Man: The Wily Wars lets you pick from all of the weapons in the game regardless of game mode! Simply hold A to pause the game and use the Up and Down arrows of the D-Pad to cycle to the weapon you want to use.

Apply the patch onto the EU version. It doesn't have any other enhancements (sram, bullet speed, etc.) by itself, but it can be easily applied on top of such patches without any issues.

-Can confirm this works on the Retro-Bit version.- Edit: Scratch that, it only works in levels and once you encounter a boss, it crashes. Sorry about that. Unsure if you'd like to look into that and getting it working for that specific version.

I'd like to try randomizing Mega Man's weapon every five seconds; what would be a good way for me to implement that?

Here's what you need to do to change the weapon: 1. Despawn the current weapon's entities. Writing $032E into their object types (located at $A51A, $A586, $A5F2) is enough. Sometimes more slots are technically used but they're not important. 2. Change the current weapon index stored in RAM address $CB3A. Goes from $0 (Buster) to $1E (Rush Jet), and make sure to skip weapon $0D (functionless unused weapon, will leave you defenseless). 3. Update the player's palette, since it doesn't do it automatically. Stored at $9836. There's probably an elegant way to do it by invoking the game's own functions, but idk where they are since I cheated and made my own thing. 4. Set both the buster cooldown ($A426) and amount of on-screen bullets ($CBB8) to 0 to avoid issues with not being able to pause and weapons not firing. As for the rest: There's a fair bit of empty space at the end of ROM where you can put your routines and data (I put mine starting at $1FFBA0). Likewise, plenty of empty unused RAM. I put my values starting at $FF00 and everything seems to work fine. For the injection point, any function that reads/writes to one of the player's properties should be fine. I had to go to greater lengths to make the pause feature feasible so I inject at $1050 (which seems to be a more general routine cause I had to add further checks to not activate it in menus), but for example before that I injected at $2ABAE which does something with the player's gravity iirc and it executed fine each frame while the player object was active. Be careful not to switch to non-MM1 weapons during the Copy Robot fight since it's an almost guaranteed hardlock. I test for the fight by checking for the object type ($00063EC2 at RAM address $FFBD3A) and the level index ($7 at RAM address $CA78). I think the object type I check for is the boss door and not the boss itself but it works so who cares :P I think that's it, if I missed something feel free to ask. Good luck, it's a cool idea!

@@woodfrog9614 Thanks for that mini-guide! I'm a dev but I barely know the principles of doing rom hacking (or directly messing with registers and instructions in general). While you were making the patch, did you find how the game identifies which weapons you have already? I would like to do something like your patch, but just for hot-swapping actually acquired weapons.

@@Kracov_the_Madman It's not just a single press. Hold the A button and while it's held, the game will be paused and you can cycle through the weapons with the dpad. Just be sure not to do it as you're teleporting in or it might softlock. Also if you rebound the "Window" button in the settings then it's on that instead.

If you're talking about the showcases for TCRF, iirc that's done by forcing the game into Wily Tower mode, which has the byproduct of corrupting the graphics in a lot of the stages. This was done to be a more convenient way to access the weapons for the average player, without having to manually change the ROM and deal with corruptions.

@@vincenzomarinostylex9765 Here's how to apply the patch: 1. Get Lunar IPS www.romhacking.net/utilities/240/ 2. Make a copy of your regular Wily Wars ROM. 3. Open Lunar IPS and select "apply IPS patch". 4. It will first ask you to select the IPS patch, so find where you downloaded it and select it. 5. Then it will ask you to select the ROM, so select the copy of the Wily Wars ROM you made. 6. Done, that copied ROM should now have the hack applied.
