You're that same Atma from DES who was working with Vagla on the only hack ever shown..? So, what you're saying is that if he can't find the decompression routine, he won't be able to edit the said graphics at all? As for taking screens this would be relatively easy, However, how are we supposed to know where to edit the pictures for making tilesets, what's the size of one tile? |

My own MMX3 project exists so I can help Elixer with his and so I can practice certain things for EggVine. He's my friend and I don't want to steal his project. However, I'm considering releasing mine at the same time he releases his, as variety is always good. |

Great to know that you too started on making an MMX3 editor, can't wait to see the progress; It's great to know that the MMX hacking community starts again. |

Good job. |

Already seen it at TEK Hacks, however I must say that I'm really impressed with the project idea fo far. If you ever get the editor to edit whatever things... even the smallest thing in the game, OMG man, I'll own you with my life. You don't know how much time I've wanted to edit the Mega Man X Series... but I can say it's been years already. Yea years of expectation, to wait for someone to get the inspiration to make an MMX editor. And now that you finally announces it, I'm really proud of you, I have enormous faith in the project. |
