Hello everyone -

this is a short tutorial on how to find the name & short name addys in no mercy -

what you need is Nemu64, the no mercy ROM, and jabo's Jabo_Direct3D6.dll

1st download NEMU64 and extract the emulator on the folder of your choice

2nd take Jabo_Direct3D6.dll and paste it inside the plugin folder

3rd open the ROM and go to smack down mall

4th create a Superstar - give them a long weird name if you wish - example FUVERT
exit and go to Edit Superstar

5th in NEMU go to plugins - Debugger:search , select search text in the bubble - type the weird name (FUVERT) you will get more than 10 results in smack down mall - but by double clicking the results, you will find that 3 of them will have the name values highlighted on the second column from the left - the first column is related to the addy - and the text will appear on the right.

6th if you exit smackdown mall and go to Royal rumble and do the search again you will only encounter few results if your text search is very accurate

So far i found some addys that control the names but only when playing with player 1:

addy 000995ec:46555645 52544655 - 56455254 46555645 (this controls the first 16 letters of the name)

addy 000995fc:52544655 00465556 - 4552544F 43415200 (this controls the remaining 4 characters of the name, the zeroes represent a gap between the name and short name, after the zeroes the values for the short name follow)

i have created a gameshark code based on this findings that makes any wrestler a Dwarf if their game-play name's first 2 characters is FU (uppercase) -

the code also contains the contiional addys for player 2 3 & 4

the intention of these name-based codes is to have a way to make CAW hacks portable - independent of wrestler ID and costume slot

i have yet to find a way to make a code featuring the full name - or make it target specific parts of a long name
