Dragon Warrior II (NES)/RAM map: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 04:30, 3 January 2016

The following article is a RAM map for Dragon Warrior II (NES).

RAM Byte Address	Function	Details
0x0400 - 0x04ff	(Overworld) Something with status screens	This block of RAM seems to be a bitmap showing what overworld tiles are overlaid with status popups like health or a menu... but changing it seems to have no effect. This block of RAM seems to have a different purpose during battles.
0x0624 - 0x0625	Party Gold	Total gold for your party is 255 * 0x0625 byte plus the 0x0624 byte. You can just set the 0x0625 byte to 0xff for a LOT of gold.
0x0633	Character 1: Current XP	Current total experience points for the first character.
0x063b	Character 1: Current HP	Current hit points for the first character. Appears fine to set this higher than your max HP.
