====== Minor decomp tweaks ======

Here's a collection of minor tweaks you can do in the Super Mario 64 decompilation project.

===== Skip Peach intro =====

To skip the intro peach cutscene on the bridge when you start a new file, in ''init_level'' in ''level_update.c'', change:

<code c>
if (gCurrDemoInput != NULL) {
    set_mario_action(gMarioState, ACT_IDLE, 0);
} else if (gDebugLevelSelect == 0) {
    if (gMarioState->action != ACT_UNINITIALIZED) {
        if (save_file_exists(gCurrSaveFileNum - 1)) {
            set_mario_action(gMarioState, ACT_IDLE, 0);
        } else {
            set_mario_action(gMarioState, ACT_INTRO_CUTSCENE, 0);
            val4 = 1;
        }
    }
}
</code>

to

<code c>
if (gCurrDemoInput != NULL) {
    set_mario_action(gMarioState, ACT_IDLE, 0);
} else if (gDebugLevelSelect == 0) {
    if (gMarioState->action != ACT_UNINITIALIZED) {
            set_mario_action(gMarioState, ACT_IDLE, 0);
    }
}
</code>

===== Skip Lakitu cutscene =====

To skip the lakitu cutscene on the bridge when you start a new file, in ''bhv_camera_lakitu_init'' in ''camera_lakitu.inc.c'', change:

<code c>
if (o->oBehParams2ndByte != CAMERA_LAKITU_BP_FOLLOW_CAMERA) {
        // Despawn unless this is the very beginning of the game
        if (gNeverEnteredCastle != TRUE) {
            obj_mark_for_deletion(o);
        }
    } else {
        spawn_object_relative_with_scale(CLOUD_BP_LAKITU_CLOUD, 0, 0, 0, 2.0f, o, MODEL_MIST, bhvCloud);
    }
</code>

to

<code c>
if (o->oBehParams2ndByte != CAMERA_LAKITU_BP_FOLLOW_CAMERA) {
        // Always despawn
        obj_mark_for_deletion(o);
    } else {
        spawn_object_relative_with_scale(CLOUD_BP_LAKITU_CLOUD, 0, 0, 0, 2.0f, o, MODEL_MIST, bhvCloud);
    }
</code>

===== Skip Mario head (Goddard) sequence =====

To skip the mario head sequence when you start the game, change

<code c>
exit_and_execute /*seg*/ 0x14, /*script*/ _introSegmentRomStart, /*scriptEnd*/ _introSegmentRomEnd, /*entry*/ level_intro_entry_2
</code>

to

<code c>
exit_and_execute /*seg*/ 0x14, /*script*/ _introSegmentRomStart, /*scriptEnd*/ _introSegmentRomEnd, /*entry*/ L1
</code>

in levels/intro/script.s at line 20.

===== Skip initial title screen =====

In order to skip the very first title screen, change levels/entry.c. Choose any menu or level you want to start with. Put that levels script in the EXECUTE line as the entry parameter. For example, in order to start with the file select menu, change level_intro_entry_1 into script_intro_L1:

<code c>
EXECUTE(/*seg*/ 0x14, /*script*/ _introSegmentRomStart, /*scriptEnd*/ _introSegmentRomEnd, /*entry*/ script_intro_L1),
</code>

Ensure to #include the level's header.h file in the top.
