'''''Densetsu no Starfy 4''''' features a variety of [[unused content]] in its data. Much of this content includes unused model and sprite data that can be easily be found with a decompiler, and some of the models are surprisingly 'out of place', for example, some ''[[wikipedia:Galaga (series)|Galaga]]'' related graphics are hidden in the game. A lot of the models are shared with the Japanese version of ''[[Super Princess Peach]]'', also developed by [[TOSE]]. Some of the other unused content in the game includes completely unused music and debugging text.<ref>Tools used: NDSTool, DSLazy, NSBMD, ConsoleTool3, CrystalTile2, SSEQ2MIDI, VGMTrans v9, NDSSNDEXT, HxD, ArtMoney SE v7.38</ref>.


==English alphabet and kana series==
==Development text==
The English alphabet, or a series of characters resembling the alphabet, both capitalized and in lower case can be found several times in the ROM encoded in [[wikipedia:Shift JIS|Shift JIS]] as well as a series of scaled and full-size katakana.
An unused series of development related text begins at offset <tt>0xE1B600</tt> and finishes at offset <tt>0xE22006</tt>. The text contains a list of variables with numbered descriptions and hex codes resembling offsets. Some of the variables are marked unused.
 
Below is an actual example.

In ''Densetsu no Starfy 4'', various seemingly unused 3D models are stored in the game's G3D directory. The G3D directory is typically used to store files such as the animations and models for the backgrounds of stage maps. The 3D models are defined by four files; NSBMD files that define the model and its dimensions, NSBTX files that define an object's colors and texture and NSBCA files that define how a model should be animated. Not all of the 3D models use all four files because some models may not have associated animations or textures.

Many of the unused models are shared with Japanese versions of ''[[Super Princess Peach]]''. It may be worth stressing that ''Super Princess Peach'' is a game which was previously developed by [[TOSE]]. In the US version of Super Princess Peach the G3D directory was removed with all of the models stored inside it. <ref>[http://randomhoohaas.flyingomelette.com/shr/spp/ug.html Super Princess Peach - unused materials]</ref>

=='Unused' font==
[[File:DnS4 small font.png|frame|right|"stafy2_9b2_small_bmp" when it replaces "stafy4_13b2_full_bmp"]]
In the extracted ROM there is a font called "stafy2_9b2_small_bmp" with the two other fonts which are used; "stafy4_13b2_2_bmp", "stafy4_13b2_full_bmp". It is smaller than the other fonts. Though the font "stafy2_9b2_small_bmp" appears to be used for the scrolling yellow on the bottom of [[Map (Areas)|City]] screens, technically it isn't, and modifying the font will not change the text. Despite the name, the font is not identical to the font used in ''[[Densetsu no Starfy 2]]''.

==Partially unused test stage==
{{main|Stage 1 (test) (Densetsu no Starfy 4)}}
 
Internally there is a [[Stage 1 (test) (Densetsu no Starfy 4)|test Stage]] referred to as Stage 1, sharing its Stage number with [[Lobber's Villa]]. This Stage includes many curious maps which appear to have been intentionally added into the game but have graphical and/or layout errors. Among the maps are [[Spring of Love]] course copies in [[Densetsu no Starfy 4/Stage 1 (test)-3|Stage 1 (test)-3]], with a glitched unidentified map following on from map 9 (for [[Degil's Castle]]).
 
Similar but different test areas are found in ''[[Super Princess Peach]]'' and ''[[The Legendary Starfy]]''.

==Test rooms==
==Unused blocks==
[[File:DnS4 Room 257.png|frame|right|Starfy in room 257, facing the [[Angler]] vehicle]]
There are some unused blocks that appear to be based on the ''[[mariowiki:Mario (series)|Mario]]'' series. They are beige 'straight face' blocks, including one type shaped like a square and four types shaped like triangles, which are similar to the blocks that Mario can use to run up walls in ''[[mariowiki:Super Mario World|Super Mario World]]''. It can be seen in the glitched room with an ID of 261.
''Densetsu no Starfy 4'' features a number of different test rooms. These are described below.
 
===Room 257===
'Room 257' is a large room that is set mainly underwater. It contains most of [[Starfy]] and [[Starly]]'s vehicles, including [[Angler]] which rests on floating blue rocks, the [[Propeller Bit]] which rests underneath Angler on top of a floating grass platform to west of brown rocks and [[Kelkie]], which rests on top of a floating grass platform east of the brown rocks. If Starfy or Starly use any of the transformations, all of them will disappear. The background of Room 257 is invalid and appears to be based on the animation of the [[Densetsu no Starfy 4/Stuff#Accessories|Chef's Hat]] [[Stuff|Accessory]].
 
Although there is no floor, Starfy and Starly are free to run across the bottom of the room without falling through. There is an invisible pool of water at the bottom-left corner of the room that allows Starfy or Starly to climb back up to the nearest platform.
 
Near the top-right corner of the screen there is a door that leads to room 260.
 
{{#ev:youtube|59yUIdYxHnQ|270|left|Video of room 257}}
{{clr}}
 
===Room 258===
'Room 258' is a room that contains the [[Propeller Bit]] and [[Kelkie]] vehicles, as well as the [[Kigurumi (ability)|Kigurumi]]. There is a single [[Swerl]] enemy. There are a number of breakable blocks in this room, as well as black pools of water, which only appear blue at the water's surface. 'Room 258' contains a door next to the Propeller Bit that can only be entered by riding it. It links to the same room, but outside the bottom-left most door.
 
There are two doors at the bottom-left corner of the room. Entering the first (west-most) door leads to the same room, but outside the top-right most door. Entering the second door leads to the same room and throws Starfy with a 'south-west' velocity outside of the door next to the Propeller Bit. Going inside the top-right most door leads to room 259.

===Room 259===
[[File:DnS4_Room_259.png|frame|right|Room 259]]
'Room 259' cannot be explored, because the game appears to simply load a white screen.
{{clr}}
 
===Room 260===
'Room 260' has a small area with two doors near the west-most and east-most sides of the screen. Both doors have walls behind them, so [[Starfy]] or [[Starly]] must enter them if they are taken in front of the doors as they won't be able to move. There is a door in 'room 257' near the top right of the screen that leads to the west-most door in room 260. If Starfy or Starly enter the west-most door, it will lead to 'room 259'. If Starfy or Starly enter the east-most door, it will lead to room 261.
 
{{#ev:youtube|cfWEt-MOCBM|270|left|Video of room 260}}
{{clr}}
 
===Room 261===
'Room 261' has a door near the top of the screen that is difficult to enter due to being blocked by brown stones. Access to the top section of room 261 is blocked by five triangular shaped stones. If Starfy or Starly attempt to [[Swim]] under them, they are propelled upwards.
 
Below the triangular shaped stones are two doors, and a large vertical section that cannot be climbed under normal circumstances. Room 261 contains some unused blocks that appear to be based on the ''[[mariowiki:Mario (series)|Mario]]'' series. They are beige 'straight face' blocks, including one type shaped like a square and four types shaped like triangles, which are similar to the blocks that Mario can use to run up walls in ''[[mariowiki:Super Mario World|Super Mario World]]''. Near the bottom-left corner of the room there is a door that leads to room 262.

===Room 262===
'Room 262' has a single door near the top right corner of the room that leads to the bottom-left door of room 261. To the west of the door and above it there is an invisible pool of water that links the floor (which also consists of a slope) to the north-east most platform. Above the slope there is one of the unused triangle blocks as seen in room 261. Starfy or Starly can jump through it.

Densetsu no Starfy 4 features a variety of unused content in its data. Much of this content includes unused model and sprite data that can be easily be found with a decompiler, and some of the models are surprisingly 'out of place', for example, some Galaga related graphics are hidden in the game. A lot of the models are shared with the Japanese version of Super Princess Peach, also developed by TOSE. Some of the other unused content in the game includes completely unused music and debugging text.[1].

Development text

An unused series of development related text begins at offset 0xE1B600 and finishes at offset 0xE22006. The text contains a list of variables with numbered descriptions and hex codes resembling offsets. Some of the variables are marked unused.

Unused 3D models

Among the model files are various panoramic views that are not similar to any landscapes in the final game


Main article: Densetsu no Starfy 4/Unused content/Unused models

In Densetsu no Starfy 4, various seemingly unused 3D models are stored in the game's G3D directory. The G3D directory is typically used to store files such as the animations and models for the backgrounds of stage maps. The 3D models are defined by four files; NSBMD files that define the model and its dimensions, NSBTX files that define an object's colors and texture and NSBCA files that define how a model should be animated. Not all of the 3D models use all four files because some models may not have associated animations or textures.

Many of the unused models are shared with Japanese versions of Super Princess Peach. It may be worth stressing that Super Princess Peach is a game which was previously developed by TOSE. In the US version of Super Princess Peach the G3D directory was removed with all of the models stored inside it. [2]

'Unused' font

"stafy2_9b2_small_bmp" when it replaces "stafy4_13b2_full_bmp"

In the extracted ROM there is a font called "stafy2_9b2_small_bmp" with the two other fonts which are used; "stafy4_13b2_2_bmp", "stafy4_13b2_full_bmp". It is smaller than the other fonts. Though the font "stafy2_9b2_small_bmp" appears to be used for the scrolling yellow on the bottom of City screens, technically it isn't, and modifying the font will not change the text. Despite the name, the font is not identical to the font used in Densetsu no Starfy 2.

Partially unused test stage

Main article: Stage 1 (test) (Densetsu no Starfy 4)

Internally there is a test Stage referred to as Stage 1, sharing its Stage number with Lobber's Villa. This Stage includes many curious maps which appear to have been intentionally added into the game but have graphical and/or layout errors. Among the maps are Spring of Love course copies in Stage 1 (test)-3, with a glitched unidentified map following on from map 9 (for Degil's Castle).

Similar but different test areas are found in Super Princess Peach and The Legendary Starfy.


Hidden text in the Degil Stage 6 cutscene

The hidden text hidden in a black sqaure

Hidden text can be found hidden in the texture file ("ddemo s06_l") for the assets associated with the cutscene with Degil prior to entering Flourishing Desert. It reads 'ぼよ' ('pot').

Koopalings

Sprites of the seven Koopalings

Both Super Princess Peach and Densetsu no Starfy 4 share unused sprite data relating to the seven Koopalings from the Mario series. In Densetsu no Starfy 4, the data is stored in the 'Stage' directory, while in Super Princess Peach, the data is stored in the 'StageBoss' directory.

According to their filenames, Iggy Koopa was meant to appear in Area 1, Morton Koopa Jr. was meant to appear in Area 2, Lemmy Koopa was meant to appear in Area 3, Ludwig von Koopa was meant to appear in Area 4, Roy Koopa was meant to appear in Area 5, Wendy O. Koopa was meant to appear in Area 6 and Larry Koopa was meant to appear in Area 7. Note that the files were copied over from Super Princess Peach to Densetsu no Starfy 4, so it is likely that the Koopalings were only meant to be bosses in Super Princess Peach.

Unused blocks

There are some unused blocks that appear to be based on the Mario series. They are beige 'straight face' blocks, including one type shaped like a square and four types shaped like triangles, which are similar to the blocks that Mario can use to run up walls in Super Mario World. It can be seen in the glitched room with an ID of 261.

  • The unused square block.

    The unused square block.

Unused music

Densetsu no Starfy 4 features three unused tunes as well as nine dummied out tracks that are copies of Lobber's Villa.

Sequences

In Densetsu no Starfy 4's sound_data.sdat file, there are a total of 68 playable sequences. In the final game, 56 sequences are available in the Legendary Concert - but it is notable that there are an additional three valid tracks that are seemingly unused in the final game. Below are playable videos of the three aforementioned unused tracks.

In addition to the 59 "valid" sequences, there are an additional nine tracks that are copies of Lobber's Villa when they are forcibly played. These will be described in further detail in the 'dummied-out music' section below.

Dummied-out music

The sequences in Densetsu no Starfy 4 are named in the format '[1]-SEQ-[2]'. The first integer is a number that appears to describe the real track, and the second number describes the order that the track appears in the game code.

Below are the list of sequences as they appear in the game's SDAT file.

As shown above, the first integer does not always match the second integer. There are nine SSEQ files that use '001' as the first integer in their filenames when the second integer suggests that they are separate entries. These have been indicated above with an asterisk.

As the number of sequences extends to 68, this may imply that the developers allocated more files for music if they needed to add them. The contents of these nine files are in fact copies of '001-SEQ_001.SSEQ' (Lobber's Villa) that were probably kept as placeholder data.

It may be worth stressing that the dummied-out sequences are unusually ordered, given that they are indexed in between the SSEQ files of used music and the three unused tracks.

Notes

In the Legendary Concert, data exists at the end of track names for a sequence titled "No Tune 58" (Japanese: なしきょく５８). However, it appears to be simply a placeholder to mark the end of the Legendary Concert, given that there are a total of 57 songs indexed, including the 'not-unlocked' placeholder, "☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆" which is listed as the first track. The nine additional copies of Lobber's Villa are not indexed in this list.
