Adventure hack help

[yorgle]

I've developed a number of Adventure hacks using Steve Engelhardt's Create Your Own Adventure editor. And while I'm extremely pleased with how well the variations turn out, I am always left frustrated that I can't add an extra room, castle or extra dragon or two. I'm in the process of learning assembly with the hope that one day I'll be able to add some of these features to my hacks, but in the meantime, I'm wondering if I'm even heading in the right direction. Am I correct that once I figure out the code for an extra castle gate or dragon, it would simply be a matter of adding that code to the code I'm presently creating with the CYOA editor?

 

My goal is to make two or three more complex Adventure variations to burn onto cartridges so that my daughters (who absolutely love the original game) can play the games on my original console. Any guidance, help, advice, or warnings would be greatly appreciated.

I'm glad you've enjoyed using CYOA!

 

There are a number of threads in the hacks forum that detail how to modify Adventure beyond what you can do with CYOA, including how to add extra rooms. Nukey Shay is an excellent resource for this, he's made numerous really cool hacks of adventure, many of which include the exra features you mention. Here's a few threads that I recommend you check out:
