SOTC Agro Texture Hacking
6This video shows me modifying Agro's texture. Let me know if you want me to post a tutorial, and the savestate. I found where the texture was stored in memory, by searching for the word "horse", most textures are given detailed names, so I was able to guess which one it was, and then attempting to change it, to see if there were any effects. The effects in this video are caused by changing the reference to the texture, but I can also modify the texture directly, and was also able to make the horse transperant, and have zebra stripes. I want to eventually add armor to Agro, and tweak her to be different breeds of horses. I did this in the PSM demo, though this should work in all versions of Shadow Of The Colossus.
Here are the steps to find Agro's Texture Tint table (which will allow you to edit the overall color of Agro. I used in the NTSC Demo, using a fairly new version of PCSX2 (older version will not work):
With new versions of PCSX2, the 32MB region of main PS2 RAM, will always be loaded, at offset 0x20000000
So using a new version of PCSX2 gurantees address stablity within a single savestate. In older versions of PCSX2 the addresses were not stable.
See the 6 large photos I put on the bottom of this page:
ps23dformat.wikispaces.com/Shadow+of+the+Colossus
I use the memory view feature because it is extremely useful, to visually see the memory. Using the screenshots as a guide, you see I start by searching for the following array of byte (you must currently be using the black Agro skin this is mandatory):
00 00 53 42 5F 68 6F 72 73 65 5F 73 6B 69 6E 5F 62 6C 61 63 6B 5F 6D 69 70
Lets call the PS2 offset (ie the CE offset minus 0x20000000 that contains the beginning of that array S. let [] denote the address being pointed to
Then agro's texture tint table will be located at
[[S+0x2C]+C]
If you want to do exactly what I did in this video (glitching the texture), simple edit the offset "S+0x2x"
Update:
See this picture for an example of a solid Pink Agro :
