Hi Everyone,
To be transparent, here is the baseline method to getting the forklift to work.
VERY MESSY METHOD:
Open both /SCENE03/D000/MAPINFO.BIN & /SCENE03/MA00/MAPINFO.BIN in a hex editor.
Search for "ecam" without the quotes in MAOO/MAPINFO.BIN copy all of the hex after it till the end of the file.
Search for "ecam" without the quotes in D000/MAPINFO.BIN and paste the copied hex directly after the ecam line, overwriting what was there. Make sure no post ecam D000 hex is there before you paste or else you'll break the CRC and the map will fail to load.
In BETA Shenmue, in the debug menu, load D000 SCENE 03 ENTRY Point 99
This will grant you the forklift race in a broken dobuita.
ENTRY 01 - 03 will bring u to Mark's forklift introduction but the game will crash.
CLEAN METHOD:
Do the same ecam swap BUT, only take the lines that contain "FORK". Look for zeroed out hex lines to find the end of called variables. Swapping these into the right framework locations in D000 will give you native forklift support in the engine in Dobuita.
Sounds simple but it really isn't. The hard part is knowing where to put the forklift variable calls within the D000 framework. Im almost there with this method. I have two vars left.
If you do it this way, the game will think you started the afternoon shift and you will be on the forklift for a period of time but in a perfect Dobuita.
