Here's a new Mega Man 4 hack from April called:
Mega Man 4 Voyage: Blue Edition

Pre-patched 4 u: https://files.catbox.moe/pln2u8.nes

It's not the same hack as another one from a few years ago called "Mega Man 4 Voyage" (found pre-patched on sites like CDRomance.com) but rather an alternate take on the same hack (made by one of the co-creators of the original 4 Voyage). So, it's an all new game, from what I understand.

Pic is the front cover art intended for 4 Voyage: Blue Version (found in the patch download file on Romhacking, for your reference).

And >>9892163 here's the back cover art for Mega Man 4 Voyage: Blue Edition, as well as the text intended to be on the back cover (again, found in its patch download file on Romhacking):

MEGA MAN 4 VOYAGE - BLUE VERSION (written over images)
Peaceful Russian Robots have been reprogrammed!
Dr. Wily never takes long vacations
from his ambitions to take over the
world! The evil doctor disturbs the peace
again! The 8 reprogrammed
robots are ready for a good fight.
The metallic sounds of battles
will be heard once again!

Reusing many blueprints from early
robots Mega Man encountered
in the past, Dr. Wily won't stop at
anything to conquer the world.

- Intense platforming action with
gimmicks from the past!
- Rush, your red canine companion,
returns to battle the baddies! His
Marine transformation is also back!
- 2 new adapters hidden in levels
to help Mega Man fight Dr. Wily!

Images with texts:
Suzak & Fenix battle
Legendary birds joined Dr. Wily
with a burning desire to fight Mega Man!

Images with texts:
Drills from Drill Man in level
Drills that once drilled into the
quarry are now used as weapons against Mega Man!

Images with texts:
Mega Man fights 4 Mega Man!
Pitting Mega Man against Mega Man?!
Is there no end to Dr. Wily's crazy
imagination?!

Here's a hack of Pacnsacdave's NES Gauntlet hack called Hyrule Warriors:

Dragon Quest Heroes
(by Miami Vice and Wrecking Bros. (alternative version called "Super Mario Bros. 8") NES hacker, Crying Onion)

Pre-patched: https://files.catbox.moe/97ztwx.nes

Looks like the original Hyrule Warriors Gauntlet hack isn't on CDRomance, so here it is, pre-patched: https://files.catbox.moe/mfms8t.nes

Here's a hack of Mega Man X1 that lets you play as Zero (just as he appears in X1), by romhacker Programer Peru.
Pre-patched: https://files.catbox.moe/8yjhdp.sfc

Here's a hack of X2 that lets you play as Zero. The latest version called "Triple Attack", pre-patched and featured here, uses Zero's sprite that is actually in X2 (as older versions inaccurately and strangely used his X3 sprite) and also lets you use his "Triple Attack" charge shot (ie, the attack he uses near the end of the game, whether fighting him as a boss or otherwise):

Two different pre-patched versions here:

Play as Red Zero (Classic Zero): https://files.catbox.moe/x84ihn.sfc

Play as Black Zero (Fake Zero): https://files.catbox.moe/us9my1.sfc

Here's a hack (by ozidual) of Space Station SIlicon Valley that finally allows you to 100% the game because the bug that prevented you from collecting certain content are now fixed. Another bug, involving crashing with the Expansion Pak on real hardware, is fixed here, too. The rom version featured here is 60hz, even though it has a multi-language select, so anyone here can use this without worry.

My dream game would be a much better version of MK2 on GameBoy.
A version that has all the characters, most of the stages, more music, and of course way closer gameplay to the arcade if possible. It should be possible if going above the incredibly small size of the original cart.

I've been obsessed with the idea since I saw that MK1 genesis romhack that made use of a much bigger cartridge to give the game colors, amazing voices, music, etc.

One of the most annoying shooters hector. I modded it to take 2 health per hit and 100 or so lives. I'm learning atari 2600 programming but I thought I do another attempt at rom hacking using what I've learned thats better than just changing a couple of values. I did a little test to jump into the middle unused rom so I could put in whatever I want and it actually worked so I should be able to change a lot more in the future. Using fcex debug version actually on linux using wine. It lets you just type in the assembly instructions right into the middle the code, pretty convenient.
I spent days trying to get anywhere in this game so I feel its enough justification to allow me to cheat, it still pretty hard but I intended to make it the same difficulty as gradius. I will do more hacks once I get the hang of in indirect addressing on 6502, I find it a bit confusing really.

Shantae’s another story (TG-16)

>>9894434
>I did a little test to jump into the middle unused rom
I use YY-CHR to determine unused ROM space: it's all usually $00's or $FF's, you can tell that it's all the same color, and it's usually at the end of each bank.

>>9894434
> Using fcex debug version actually on linux using wine
Mesen has an absolutely wonderful debugger and a Linux version, but i think it requires some specific Linux build, i don't know the details. I made the switch to it from FCEUX a couple years ago and i could never go back honestly.
> once I get the hang of in indirect addressing on 6502
Just use Y indirect, X is kind of silly.
Anyway, i usually just put JMPs / JSRs in wherever and replace the original instruction(s) at the end of my edits usually.

I've actually been playing this game lately. Last time I reached the final boss at last and died there. I need to get back to it since I'm almost there.

It's actually not that hard but it takes a LOT of learning, learning where to stand and what to shoot and when, and learning to dodge enemy patterns.

I feel like the only thing this game would need to make it a LITTLE more fair is a slightly faster ship. I use turbo controller though. Either that, or create an "easy mode" that adds checkpoints mid way through stages, dying at the boss only to redo the entire stage again when there are no P-UPs to collect feels really bad.

How different is it to program for the FDS compared to NES?

>>9892198

>>9895248
Hello department?

>>9894753
>>9894434
There I finally beat the game, still took me a few more attempts. The game is challenging but there are harder shmups on the system, the only thing is you gotta have a turbo controller (and considering Hudson made and sold them around the same time as this game and advertised them together, I wouldn't consider it cheating).

I think reducing all damage to 2 is a bit much, there are things that are supposed to hurt more like colision with an enemy ship which leaves you on your last HP. If you're serious about reducing damage I'd start by adding a simple division by 2 in the damage routine, this way enemy shots deal 2 damage indeed (instead of 4) but bigger stuff still hurts you more.

That or as I said, a *slight* increase in ship speed and/or checkpoints would be neat.

>>9894723

it's really not, but you have a bunch of RAM that you have to load up instead of bankswitching with a mapper. 99% or so of your code would be identical.

No idea (I just pick and post stuff I find interesting and that I think my /hbg/ bros may find interesting). QRD about the Deadpool thing?

>>9894434
If you want to learn and understand a specific thing, such as indirect addressing, you might consider using a simulator to test that specifically. That way you can concentrate on just your code using a debugging tool that's probably a lot better than what your emulator has.
If you want to do something interesting with hector I'd suggest extending the health bar. That's relatively easy, but requires more than just changing one byte.
If you want to do something less useful, but very easy, consider expanding the lives counter display to 2-3 digits. This is something you can easily find code/instructions/help on how to do and is an ideal candidate for sticking into a little unused space.
Also, obligatory git gud.

>>9895784
>That way you can concentrate on just your code using a debugging tool that's probably a lot better than what your emulator has.
I'm pretty sure the Mesen debugger is the best 6502 debugger in existence, and i've used a few of them. At the very least, the FCEUX debugger / memory viewer is more than adequate for running a couple instructions through to see how they act. The hell are you on about?
> I'd suggest extending the health bar. That's relatively easy
How do you know? You would have no idea before you dove into the code how easy or hard it is. Maybe it uses sprites and all the slots are taken up. Maybe it uses 8 sprites on the same scanline and you can't add anymore without making it a flashy mess. Maybe it uses half a byte with 16 values and there is zero room for expansion without rewriting half of the fucking game. It's stupid to make assumptions like this.
> This is something you can easily find code/instructions/help on how to do
From where? Who the hell has documented Hector for the NES?
> git gud
the man is writing 6502 ASM and editing ROMs successfully, which is a tremendous accomplishment in itself; and here you are giving terrible advice. the fuck have you ever done?

In the context of your "How do you know?" cope that's hilarious
>How do you know? You would have no idea before you dove into the code how easy or hard it is.
Because I dove into the code. It took me about a minute to work out where everything is and what would need to be done.
>From where? Who the hell has documented Hector for the NES?
Obviously not from a brainlet like you. But converting a byte value to display as digits is basic shit that's been discussed and done countless times, and can be reused anywhere. That you're unaware of this really says it all.
>the fuck have you ever done?
I helped him out when he was having problems with compiling some SNES code a few days ago. What have you done other than seethe and embarrass yourself?

>>9895552
There was a group that did a very extensive ninja Gaiden hack that made it a deadpool themed game. There were several people working on it, pretty much all graphics got changed, new music, new weapons, some heavy ASM hacking too. I don't know if he was contributing or helping to test, or by some other way, but he acquired an 80% or so done version and slapped his name on it and started selling it on his site. (Every enemy and level had changes, but a lot of the polish and several new features hadn't been put in yet.)

holy fucking LARP. you wouldn't know a stack pointer from an accumulator nigga. i'm literally on RHDN. stop embarrassing yourself.

>>9896105
> converting a byte value to display as digits is basic shit
yeah and it depends what tiles the game has alphanumerics as; not to mention the lack of decimal mode on an NES means you have to convert that to base 10 yourself, which isn't the toughest thing, but it ain't exactly Hello World either... and you'd need to find some free bytes to do it, that is, if you can't find an existing JSR to hijack in the game already to do it for you.
> simple
> trivial
> easy
the calling cards of the LARPer. everything is simple, trivial, and easy if you've never actually done anything.

i hope this is the right place to ask, sorry if it isnt. im curious about making cheats as emulator patches, ie basically the 2 line mem address you would see from gameshark, action replay for hp, ammo. ive made some tables for cheat engine using array byte search. what do i learn next to turn the stuff i can do in ce into normal codes for emus like ps2 pnatch, xenia raw code? there doesn't seem to be a good guide on it i can find.

>>9896708
Not sure about 5th / 6th gen, but any game genie / game shark / action replay / etc. is just changing byte values that the game system reads from a ROM. You can change those values permanently using a hex editor like HxD. You can make an IPS / BPS patch by comparing your changed ROM against the original ROM and spitting out a patch to share.
> emulator patches
What do you mean by emulator patches? ...What are you trying to do?

>>9896746
emus often offer their own patch system akin to gameshark etc via text files. those 'patches' look just like an old gameshark code where its 2 lines of hex values. thats how x360, ps3 emus have patches for widescreen, sometimes ammo or hp. i can do that stuff with ce for emus using array of byte searches (table remaine constant/able to find addresses cause of aob), but instead of a ce table i want to learn how to translate that into a similar patch for the emu itself, which in most cases should only be 2 lines of values.

>>9895784
I would master the first level of hector, not lose 1 bit of health but then lose my 3 lives on the 2nd level right away so have so slowly finish the first again. I want to make it have 4 lives and 3 continues like gradius and make those exploding enemies not kill you right away. R type on sms and nes gradius is around the difficulty I want. Imagine having to start right from the beginning of Truxton just after losing 3 lives.
I use the atari 2600 editor to test stuff, same cpu so still good for trying out algorithms.
https://8bitworkshop.com/

>>9895367
I think I'll that try after getting enough practice

>>9896784
Ah i see, well, i would check the emu documentation and see if there is info on those custom file formats, or, just open up a hex editor on an existing emulator patch file to see if you can change shit and figure out the format.
there probably won't be alot of info or tutorials on how to change and edit heavily custom formats like those.
you can possibly write a script to generate those from your tables / notes; i personally and recently used ChatGPT to help me write a Powershell script to generate Mesen label files (.mlb) from a different label format (.sym). You might be able to pull off something like that with your notes as a source.
Otherwise, good luck my friend...

i mean, or, we could get into a conversation of actual substance... but you aren't really capable of that, are you?
...you know what was cool? finding literally ONE free byte in the header of the simcity save file format to store mouse speed, storing it in battery backed ram on the exact frame that it is set, reverse engineering and hijacking the checksum fixing routine from the hidden debug menu so the game doesn't just delete all of the data, but most of all, pushing the purple plunger to watch the actual console with the actual mouse wake up the ol' CRT with the mouse set the same hardware speed that it was shut off at. that's fuckin magic; and it fills me with a great sense of pride and accomplishment that just can't be replicated anywhere else.

Most people dont. Also the 816 is retarded.
But what's important here is to understand that there's always someone who knows more than you. I've coded countless lines of 65xx assembly and even designed CPUs. But I know that there are even hobbyist who have dissected the things and know much more about them than I ever will. And I'm ok with that.

> Also the 816 is retarded.
It is, but after using the 6502 for a while, i kind of see where they were coming from designing it. 6502 compatibility is a wonderful thing, and computers like the IIGS made great use of it; the SEP and REP abilities are nice to just get the flags the way you want in one pass, being able to push and pull A, X, and Y form the stack is useful, STZ is nice, MVN and MVP are good in cases where the hardware doesn't support DMA'ing a bunch of shit, and IN THEORY being able to choose between 8 / 16 bit memory values and register widths should be an amazing feature. It really does solve alot of the shit that sucked about the 6502.
HOWEVER in practice being able to switch 8 / 16 bit memory and register widths becomes a nightmare for compilers and a spaghetti mess for your code and for your brain, and god is it just unintuitive. I really kind of like the 65c816, but i can really see why people don't, and forget trying to learn from scratch on the damn thing.

IMO it's not too bad, you just have to remember to put PHP and PLP at the beginning and end of each subroutine where you change the register sizes.

>>9907595
Sounds great

>>9909130
Simcity just SEPs and REPs at the beginning of each routine for the memory / register widths it uses (i'm guessing for the compiler they used) and SEPs and REPs at will in the middle of the routines. I stuck with that standard. It does not seem like the most efficient way to code a 65c816 program, and granted, it was a (near) launch title.
> it's not too bad, ya just PHP / PLP
Well, i mean, if you're in the wrong mode when you assemble the program, the instructions don't build properly and the game just crashes to hell: It's not just the processor status that's the problem.
I suppose if you coded (or were working on a game) that always kept the M / X register / memory width flags clear and at 16 bits by default, your strategy would work, and it seems like a good strategy for coding something from scratch, but you're kind of stuck with the cards you're dealt with if you're romhacking...

>>9909336
>if you're in the wrong mode when you assemble the program, the instructions don't build properly and the game just crashes to hell: It's not just the processor status that's the problem.
To solve this I never use the SEP and REP instructions directly, I use macros that both set/reset the bit and set the assembler to the relevant mode. For example:

a16: .macro
rep #$20
.al
.endmacro

>>9909542
i see, that seems like a smart move; and you're doing that in macros avoid the SEP / REP auto detection, i get it.
this was my first SNES / WLA-DX project so i had no idea what i was doing setting it up. i'll probably do that next project. thank you!

Hello everyone.

I'd like to ask how to "open" these CK files I've extracted from Genghis Khan IV, a Japanese-only PS1 game.

Titled MEN.CK and WOMEN.CK, I believe these contain image portraits(given how they have the same filenames as the PC version except they are in PNG) and I'd like to open these files for use.

>Emulation is huge in the Personal Computer scene
Well, for the first 10 years (roughly 95-05) of the existence of console emulators, PCs were the only thing that could run them.
I remember running emulators on the Wii was a big fuckin deal.

yeah, cool, the dude is making his dream game at his own pace exactly the way he wants it. that's more than i can say for most other people here...
i for one am pretty excited to fire it up when he releases a demo or finishes it, and idgaf whether is 2024 or 2034, it's good to get shit right.

Here are some screenshots from a Super Mario World hack that I'm making. (The title screen one was taken a while ago, hence it saying 2021.) There are 19 different levels shown out of 60 made so far and 95 planned.

Also, here's a clip showing one of the bosses.

Not hard
It took me about 3 weeks not knowing any asm to be able to make images on the screen. Just doing practice and reading notes each day.
First make sure you have an understanding of binary and hex down.
Next just follow a z80 assembly tutorial, it can be for zx spectrum or similar.
Next is a bit tricky, you want to learn how to communicate with the vdp but the documents make it a little hard to understand but keep experimenting with the emulator called emuliscious and you will get it
.
https://www.smspower.org/Development/VDPRegisters

basically you send a command to the vpd telling it what you want it to do such as updating tiles or moving the background and then use the out command to stream data to it.

to change graphics data you do something like this, the emulator will show you what each bit does

ld a, %00111111 ; data to be written to register
out ($bf),a

ld a, %10000000 ; command to write to register 00
out ($bf),a

>>9921714
what assembler are you using?
what are you drawing tiles with?
> emuliscious
is there a step through debugger? tile viewer? MEKA has these things but it is kind of jank ass and i didn't particularly enjoy using it...

that's literally what happened

>>9922757
Yeah: https://youtu.be/TRxEnPuHOgE

>>9921714
Just used the first one I found, happened to be called z80 asm.

I used pixel o ramo to make simple images, you can use gimp too if you set it up.

Someone here gave the suggestion of tile ed, https://thorbjorn.itch.io/tiled.. Looks very nice.

You can also just load up a rom and just copy the graphics data directly from vram, I did that. I happened to use wonder boy. Coincidentally gameboy graphics happen to work on the sms if you just blank half the colours.

Yes, in emuliscious you can step through code one instruction at a time, very handy and more advanced than meka.

I learn a bit from this but its a bit confusing how he explains stuff.
https://www.smspower.org/maxim/HowToProgram/Lesson1AllOnOnePage
I had issues when I first started, turns out you have to disable and enable the screen at the start and end of the frame or else you will get a blank screen. To start off just try changing the background colour, you don't have to do all that stuff I said before just to do that.

Writing to the vdp was confusing, I kept getting the bits mixed up and you have to use 2 writes to set it up. Once you have got it you can just use a macro each time or each time you forgot just having a working example to look back on.

I also used a text editor called atom but it has been discontinued, very useful to spot mistakes. Kate is another one that has not been discontinued.

Also got this book called Learn Multiplatform Assembly Programming that come back to reference if I forgot what something does.

A couple of demos, a little rough but they do actually work on a real genesis but probably not on a sms as they don't have a header. They're just using the vram data from gb roms saved using emuliscious. I want to do better but I've been doing atari 2600 lately so left the sms behind for a bit.

And in doing so he's proven that he's never played Gunstar Heroes. Both his original demo and the game he's working on have absolutely no sense of enemy AI, decent level design, interesting and complex weapons, decent animations etc. All the enemies are brain dead doing the exact same thing at the exact same time as they blindly move from one side of the screen to the other.

Compare that to Gunstar Heroes and there's a lot more going on, especially on the higher difficulties. You have enemies walking, jumping, shooting, climbing, etc. all at the same time along with multiple enemies types, 2 players, and significantly more complicated weapons being fired.

>>9926345
Ok. Listen. I think some of your criticism is valid, but jesus christ dude, you're comparing a professional team of probably the best 2d game programmers / sprite artists / chiptune composers in the world at the time at Treasure / Konami to a fucking unreleased demo by one fucking dude. Chill the fuck out.
Actually Doing Shit is brutally time consuming and painstakingly difficult, especially shit that doesn't suck. Maybe some of you would know that if you spent your time Actually Doing Shit instead of just begging for things, shitting on everything, or spending more than a week on a project and just giving up...
What he has accomplished so far is goddamn impressive, way more impressive than plenty of commercial games back in the day, and orders of magnitude more impressive than any of the shitters, beggars and tech spec regurgitators around here have ever done with their meaningless lives. Ugh.

>>9926378
I'm not the one making the comparison. The homebrew dev is. He's been doing that comparison ever since he started over a decade ago. If he's going to keep making that comparison to try and go "Look I'm just as good as Gunstar Heroes!" then I see no problem with pointing out where it falls short.

As for him "actually doing shit" there's plenty of other homebrew devs out there who have actually finished their shit in a much shorter amount of time and had an actual polished product. Even in the SNES homebrew scene there's people doing things far more polished than that dev. That particular dev is in it for Console War purposes only. Which is why he hasn't really made any substantial progress in over a decade because he's more concerned about winning a console war that's been dead for over 25 years than actually making a decent game.

>>9926460
> And in doing so he's proven that he's never played Gunstar Heroes
Ok but if i can't solo like Jimmy Page it doesn't "prooove" i never listened to Led Zeppelin or tried to write a decent rock song. Sorry i've been slamming 65c816 all day and i guess i'm a little grumpy heh.

>>9926473
He's made it pretty clear over the years that all he thinks there is to Gunstar Heroes is "Move a lot of sprites fast." and nothing else.

>>9926491
Well the dude is making his dream game exactly the way he wants it and it looks pretty fuckin cool to me.

>>9926550
I'm not even sure it's his dream game. Everything in it is pretty much specifically there because he got into a console war fight with a Genesis fan and he put it in there to go "See I can do that on SNES too!" all while completely ignoring the fact that there needs to be an actual coherent game beneath that flashy coat of paint.

It's a mess of random visual elements first, and a game second.

is there some scam going on that Forza motorsport and Project gotham racing can't be run on pc? No decompilation project and anything. Moreover, the same case with Gran Turismo as no one has interest in decompilation thies projects. Anyway how to run Forza motorsport on PC? I tried on xbox emultor on xbox 360 but it crashes in random moments

>60fps on real raw hw
that demo is running at 40-45fps, wym

>>9929549
he's targeting 30 for his game so he can add a bunch of cool shit, but he has Vanilla SM64 at a solid 60 on console, and has lots of videos about optimizing the engine.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t_rzYnXEQlE

>>9927762
He's gotten into these fights with homebrew devs in both the Genesis and SNES scenes. The people he's argued with can program and do know the hardware well. The main difference is those people are more focused on actually making a game over a soulless tech demo.

And I'm sure if you put as much energy into Alisha's Adventure as you do into lashing out at any bit of criticism the game would actually be more than a soulless tech demo by now.

>>9929821
You're right. People have seen enough of the game to know that it's not going to be anything more than a (cool) tech demo. Finish it and move on, instead of wasting your time here trying to change people's minds.

>>9929849
> but i'm just sick of you shitting on the project and stalking this poor dev with a hate boner
You think I'm not the only person shitting on it? There's been at least 3-4 different people in this thread alone telling the guy enough and to stop spamming it in every homebrew thread. I'm just one of many who have commented on it.

Secondly I'm not shitting on it, I'm giving criticism of what's it's lacking. If the dev was someone who could handle criticism properly he'd take that feedback and focus on improving those areas instead of just making more uninspired levels with more braindead enemies.

>>9929849
>bruh i'm not the Alisha's Adventure guy lol
So are you the guy spamming the same vids over and over again in all homebrew threads? If so, you're really screwing him over.

feedback from who? and why? who does he have to answer to? it's his goddamn project. who the hell are you?
if you're all such an infallible game design geniuses and 65c816 / SPC700 wizards where the fuck are your projects?
let the guy make his game in peace... jesus

>>9929897
If his videos were not spammed, there would be no criticism. But since we still don't know if the spammer is him or another retard, it's reasonable to assume that the spammer is him.

It's totally fine in context to post your own or someone else's work in this thread. In fact it is encouraged. It's awesome to see people pushing consoles and doing cool shit.
What is not encouraged, though tolerated, is your backseat driving hate boner for this particular dev and his project. You can fuck right off. You're probably just mad that he is capable of creating something awesome and you aren't.
Well, it doesn't have to be that way, you can learn to do anything if you are motivated enough. There are plenty of resources here and knowledgeable enough people, so, once again, why don't you do something useful with your life?

And you could have a little bit of education.

>>9929924
ok, then you have to admit he's pushing a fuckton of sprites at 60FPS, and if you're actually a dev you know how impressive that is. C ain't doin that shit.
yes, the AI could use some ...AI, and the levels could use some variety, and the bosses and enemes are, uh, similar... but i am truly goddamn impressed by those vids and i genuinely enjoy them. does it kind of look like what a 10 year old thinks of gunstar heroes? yeah it kinda does. and i find it irresistibly charming with some real technical skill behind it.

>>9931023
It's one person.

>>9929948
> then you have to admit he's pushing a fuckton of sprites at 60FPS
Yes but there's still some cracks in the veneer so to speak:

1) He always posts emulator videos of it. I've yet to see that project run on a real Super Nintendo.
2) Even though it is emulator footage, there's still a lot of sprite drop out happening if you pay attention.
3) Is it actually running at 60fps? The Gunstar Heroes demo it started as years ago was capped at 30fps to allow for more sprites.
4) There's no complex enemy AI, no complex bullet patterns, no 2 player, no enemy variety, etc. It's all just a hoard of the same enemies doing the same animation walking from one side of the screen to the other. Just doing that doesn't require a whole lot to pull off. Doing it while having all of them doing different animations, actions, multiple different kinds of enemies of different sizes, etc. along with proper AI, complex weapons, multiplayer, etc. starts to make it more complicated. The fact no improvement has been made in those areas over the years even though this criticism has been brought up over and over again tells me there's a reason for it.
