2P plays with camera

"Flodder450:
IIRC if a second controller is plugged in, p2 can control the camera in the credits."

Just read this about 1 hour ago, and after some hacking here's an experimental Gameshark code which lets you control the camera also in the introduction.

Sorry for the long code, I was lazy and coded it in C, since it's just a prototype anyway.

Everyone knows the camera thing in the credits since 1998. I can't believe you as the best SM64 hacker didn't O_O

Keep up your work :)

@MarkusHobelsberger Some facts which may surprise you:

- Never owned a N64 (it was too expensive back then and my interest in games wasn't that great anymore, first time I played most levels was when UltraHLE was released).

- Never got 120 stars (max was about 100 or so).

- First time I actually saw the ending was two years ago, I think.

I was wondering... do you make a trainer to run alongside the program, or do you reprogram the game with C? And if the second, how?

[frauber]

@TheMasterGamePro It's like a trainer, I inject some code into the game and set a "hook" so it can be executed. The code itself is programmed in C using the standard GCC compiler targetted to the MIPS R4300 architecture.

Woah

AWESOME!

very nice code, gotta try it out sometimes!

[frauber]

@Flodder450 I'll try to make a more advanced camera code out of it (ie, full control of camera with second player), then it will be fun :).

Awesome.

We could make machinimas and such with this.

WEIRD

[minernoob90]

hey is it possible to have the "devil bottles" 2 Player concept from banjo tooie? you know, the second player can control the enemies?

[InAFruitCup]

you should make a web site with all of your codes

[samuskillsjj]

You should do a camera hack where you put it at different areas like resident evil's original look.

@frauber

Wow, epic :D

[LalaSM64]

Nice :O

Thanks for making this machinima code!
