A Link to the Past + Super Metroid Crossover Randomizer

I don't understand it how can you mix the two roms up together?

It's actually pretty clever, they merge the three roms together with the power of exhirom and asm!

Code:

@echo off
echo Building Super Metroid + Zelda
cd resources
python create_exhirom.py sm_orig.sfc alttp_orig.sfc zsm_orig.sfc
copy zsm_orig.sfc zsm.sfc > NUL:
asar ..\src\main.asm zsm.sfc
copy zsm.sfc "..\build\zsm.sfc" > NUL:
cd ..
echo Done

^^The roms are 6 mb...so enough space to fit all they want lol

Wow, this is unbelievable

I am not that good at Super Metroid but I'll probably try this anyway. Fantastic idea to keep the LttPR fresh and interesting.

How are they 6mb? SM is 3mb zelda is 1mb

Exlorom is 6MB, since the main mapping is different. From those 6MB, 4 are filled with code, 2 are 00 bytes. Plus the new ASM code. Every 2MB game would automatically be 6MB (4 with 00 bytes), every 4MB would be 8MB (4 with 00 bytes).
