In Saxman's original guide, he says all the game's text is ASCII. This
isn't completely true, but it's really all ya need:
$0032678 - Knuckles' Name (Character select screen)
$0032698 - Mighty's Name (Character select screen)
$00326B8 - Espio's Name (Character select screen)
$00326D8 - Charmy's Name (Character select screen)
$00326F8 - Vector's Name (Character select screen)
$0032718 - Bomb's Name (Character select screen, unused)
$0032738 - Heavy's Name (Character select screen, unused)
$0032758 - Player Select (Character select screen)
$0032778 - Combi select (Character select screen)
$0007739E - Level Select Menu. New string marked by $00.
$00227338 - Sound Test Text (Pointer at 7520)
$75D8 - Output, mono, stereo, speed, (unused)
Most other text (aside from ending cedits and HUD) can be found using
this table (thanks Dinner Sonic):
00=
01=!
02="
03=#
04=$
05=%
06=&
07='
08=(
09=)
0A=*
0B=+
0C=,
0D=-
0E=.
0F=/
10=0
11=1
12=2
13=3
14=4
15=5
16=6
17=7
18=8
19=9
1A=:
1B=;
1C=<
1D==
1E=>
1F=?
20=©
21=A
22=B
23=C
24=D
25=E
26=F
27=G
28=H
29=I
2A=J
2B=K
2C=L
2D=M
2E=N
2F=O
30=P
31=Q
32=R
33=S
34=T
35=U
36=V
37=W
38=X
39=Y
3A=Z
3B=[
3C=\
3D=]
3E=^
3F=_
So "SCENARIO QUEST" would be "33 23 25 2E 21 32 29 2F 00 31 35 25 33
34". And sure enough it is (although beggining and ending with an extra
space).
$3E5E - Menu Text.
Much of the other text is just compressed
art.
