| Maybe I'm just an asshole, but am I the only one who thinks this kid istn going to EVER program? I mean... ugh. its like "If you have to ask, you'll never know" sort of deal. ps, that doesnt mean im against asking for help about stuff you dont know. I just think its silly if you have seriously NO clue and ask something like this. Its like asking how to make cr |

| Yes its very hard to read if don't select all the message with the mouse. @checkplease = Its very hard creating a program. You will need of a lot of experience, learn many languages (C++, ASM etc...). I particulary don't know which the languages you prefer, but I reccomend the C++. You can try to find a C++ compiler in www.google.com. I have certain that you will find one that will do all you want. Hope that helps. |

Yes, this is a problem. It's annoying select all you wrote to see what you've said. |

| A twelve day bump to discuss the readability of Gavin's text? ...seriously. Mega Luigi: Why would he need multiple languages? And I think the actual links to C++ compilers earlier in this thread are going to be more usefull than the suggestion to use Google .Anyway, since I like to be helpful, I'll teach basic programming (in BASIC, appropriately enough) to any fairly bright person who's willing. I've given lessons before, so I can do a fairly good job. |

| Not to be rude, but if you shorten "you" to "u", you're probably too lazy to make a level editor. You have to figure out how the data works, locate offsets for all levels, change objects (well, any data within), change level header data, level start/stop data, quite possibly entrances/exit data. I would estimate all this to everything between one week to months of work, and now we're just getting close to where you can map up the data with boxes! Then you have to program a way to move and resize them, and then actually pulling graphics from the ROM to paint it all up. And this is just the part you have to do to be able to draw the level, move objects and change exits. What about adding objects or removing objects? What about changing boundaries to enable one level to be larger than it is in the original ROM? What about if all levels add up to a bigger size than the original ROM, and you have to expand the ROM? What about watching out for ROM data as to not delete other levels when moving or rewriting data? There are atleast a dozen considerations like this per 100 lines code. I salute people like Squash Monster, FuSoYa and hukka who are taking their time doing this, even if assisted by notes or other hackers. It's really hard work. |

| You can make a level editor with ANY language, as long as it have got the ability to read from/write to files. |
