This is the Sonic Community Hacking Guide for Sonic the Hedgehog 3.
Start position array
These locations dictate where Sonic starts in the level. This is useful if you edited the level layout. You wouldn't want Sonic to fall from the sky or buried six feet under would you? That would look unprofessional.
The format is: XXXX YYYY, where:
- XXXX = X position
- YYYY = Y position
Here is a table for the offsets of each position:
| Zone | Act 1 | Act 2 |
|---|---|---|
| AIZ | $5E018 | $5E01C |
| HCZ | $5E020 | $5E024 |
| MGZ | $5E028 | $5E02C |
| CNZ | $5E030 | $5E034 |
| ICZ | $5E040 | $5E044 |
| LBZ | $5E048 | $5E04C |
| FBZ | $5E038 | $5E03C |
| LRZ | $5E060 | $5E064 |

Palette Editing
Usually, it's not really necessary to edit a palette in hex. Palette editors give you instant feedback for each RGB value, and the palette can be easily saved as a separate binary and reimported into the ROM. However, it is sometimes desirable or necessary to do it in hex, and it can't hurt to know how it's done.
These are the ROM offsets of the palettes in Sonic 3, as listed by HivePal:
