[ASM & Hex] Hm type check bug

[Uncommon]

Hm, interesting. FBI rewrote how the menu loads the options in order to get Fly working through the newly added MAP option in the menu. I guess neither of us ever checked it in the Safari Zone, where the menu is different. I don't think losing the ability to retire early is game-breaking, you can obviously just run around to use up your steps.

For me it's working perfectly, I think is because I've changed the MAP position to be compatible with FBI's changing between two menus (with SAVE and without SAVE), then my options aren't MAP / OPTION / SAVE, are SAVE / MAP / OPTION.

Spoiler:

Can it be done by a text??

Yes but can't we at least fix the description??
At least show me that...

I think the best way is to change the pointer of the EXIT text and function, if FBI or Uncommon could help him it will be good, because I'm not on computer right now.

Here's the post where FBI describes how he changed the menu options (scroll down to Hacking the Start Menu).

It should have the relevant information about the necessary pointers and table locations.

Thanks, I got that all, but where do i place the pointer to exit description text string?
I want the location of the retire text string.

Seems like it conflicts. You would need to make a hook and redirect the text ptr for the retire option specifically. As I recall, each "mode" of the start menu is a special case. Unfortunately this bug arises due to the mixing of the order of things in the SM. If someone can help you find locations for this stuff that'd be appreciated, else I will sometime later.

For the RETIRE string and function place these pointers:

0x3A737C: A2 62 41 08 (string)
0x3A7380: 55 F5 06 08 (function)
