Would like to add a special coin that is worth 5 coins. So, I have a few questions. I got a little information from old threads since I had almost 0 knowledge in code, but hey, I have to try to learn some basic stuff.

So, the first thing I need to know is where to put the code. I mean, is there some worthless code I can replace for one of the "Nothing" Sprites? That's what I wanna use for this custom sprite. The good news is that I know how to program the code to make it where Mario collects 5 coins with this. At least I know how to do SOMETHING. lol

Also, coin animation. Where would I put that? Would I need to add another file to the rom, or is there an unused graphic perhaps? Those are my 2 questions. I just need to know, I don't want anyone doing it for me. I'd like to do this on my own

Answer for last question: There are both unused 3D models and bitmaps. I would recommend adding a new file to avoid filenaming confusion, though. Also, good luck finding a way to code a collectible sprite

Dirbaio's thread tells me how to do that. Thanks for the advice!

EDIT: I cannot figure out how to do this. I wanted something custom in this hack. Is there anyone that could code up .s file that lets a "Nothing" sprite be this 5 coin appear on a certain nybble? I have the graphics made. It's animated with 4 positions. I also have it in a .nsbtx file.
