Invisible Penguins Crash Paper Mario
Ойындар
It's been theorized for some time that NPCs could be used to help less important objects function properly, and that principle has finally been proven. Best of all, it helped explain a game crash that long puzzled us!
Most menu storage glitches crash Nintendo 64, and are by no means limited to the scarf and bucket menus shown here. On the Virtual Console versions, we can bring the storage through other rooms, likely thanks to emulation differences or the improved hardware. The only effect I've stumbled across is exclusive to shops or areas that spawn coin counters. It's possible to incorrectly draw icon sprites because of the menu systems "overlapping" so to speak.
But the real glory inspiring this video is the Letter to Mayor Penguin. It sits atop a stump hidden beneath a few branches, and pops off the tree stump when struck with the hammer. Collecting the letter high enough in the air crashes the Nintendo 64. Yep, that's it. It's arguably the easiest game-crashing glitch known. Due to NPC positions guiding the letter's path off the tree, there's a script that is mapping their relative positions each frame. Interrupt it before the penguin is teleported offscreen, and the script fails once the item acquisition text is closed. A null pointer value is the culprit behind the crash.
Shoutouts to Clover for creating Star Rod, a tool that helped us gather evidence when troubleshooting this crash!

Eh, honestly a lot of details of this game's coding are really haphazardly. The team just did a good job of sweeping them under the carpet so that the average player won't run into them. They also didn't anticipate (or care) people would eventually emulate the game and use tools to perform frame-perfect actions.
At this rate, we are gonna need a series called What Doesn't Crash Paper Mario

I dunno if you'll find this in the sea of KZread comments, but I think I found some unused sounds in Paper Mario 64. For context, I was reviewing the contents of a SFX dump I found to try to figure out where everything was, as it wasn't labelled by anything other than the sound bank, the instr. (you'd think it's instrument, but the instruments AND sounds were both via this label), and sound (or snd., which was pretty much always 0000). While reviewing, I stumbled upon the contents of bank 12. Which had... I can't really describe them too well. They seem to be voices saying "hey..." and "wha?", and the other two sounds in the bank were just pitch-shifted variations of those sounds. What really intrigues me is that I don't recognize these sounds, *period.* From what I can gleam, they're unused, but since I don't really have the time or know-how to check, I can't tell for sure. It's no Paper Mario crash, but it's a Paper Mario mystery,

I... Paper Mario was my absolute favorite game growing up. I'd play it all the way through at least once a year until I moved out of my dad's house, and I was certain the game had no more secrets, that I had found everything there was to find. 17 years, and I never knew about the letter in that tree until I saw it in this video. I never saw mention of it in any of the walkthroughs I used, and I never managed to stumble on it myself
