Originally posted by Bit-Blade Do you mean there are enemy sprites at regular intervals? Like, 4 per screen, each at the same height ? If so, I know what the problem is, and it is rather simple to solve. (Basically, enemy 00, which usually stands for "no enemy", has been associated with an active enemy - and so a given room "00 00 00 13 00 2A 00 00" which would normally have two enemies ("13" and "2A") will have eight, and the "00" ones might look like junk because the pattern tables are wrong.) If this sounds like the problem then let me know and I'll tell you how to fix it. Good luck with your hack, it looks good. rouki Edit - iamhiro : Yes there's a full editor for CV3, I made it. I don't think there are others. Mine can be found here. (edited by rouki on 10-21-04 12:00 AM) |

| At 2A217, very probably. Bit-Blade has not sent me the corrupted ROM, but I vaguely remember his problem (read about it here, I think). The problem seemed to stem from there. 2A217-2A21B should be "00 00 00 00 00". It's 2A13E if you're working with the Japanese ROM. You might want to check that, Bit-Blade, to fix your sprites. I'm sorry that you now find reVamp unusable. I have had virtually no feedback, so it's hard to fix bugs. I've had no trouble with it, but it's been a while since I used it. It can't be as straightforward as Stake, because Dan is a better programmer, and CV3 uses a lot of compression that makes the editing a pain. Well, I tried.  Edit : Also the pointer to said address may be the problem (first pointer, 2A04F). But unlikely, unless there's a major bug causing "random" corruption. ** back to the shadows ** (edited by rouki on 05-30-05 07:53 PM) (edited by rouki on 05-30-05 07:56 PM) |

| Whoa dude, what's with the animosity? Keep that up you sure won't get any more answers from me. First of all, my e-mail works. I still get plenty of mail in this mailbox (famicom@sympatico.ca), which is the one I supplied. Last time you e-mailed me, that I know of, was before Halloween '04, when you planned to release a demo on that date. Second, I was just trying to help you, so I can do without your sour grapes. I tried (on this board) to get a more detailed description from you, of your problem. I didn't receive any. So excuse me for trying to guess at your problem in order to help you solve it. Last, there is no conspiracy, and the fact that I've not been around for a long time doesn't mean shit. I've never been around much anyway, even though I do "snoop around" from time to time (I don't have much free time nowadays). I'm still here for assistance, but this isn't the complaints bureau. Backup your thingies, and pray for the best. It's in the manual. And if you don't like that, don't use the damn editor. I've never been the one to brag, on the contrary (maybe that's why you think I'm untrustworthy), but at least I tried to make it more than a half-arsed attempt at an editor, with good, extensive features. And on that front I know I delivered. As for the programming and the bugs, I just DON'T KNOW. There must be some bugs and you discovered one, that's granted. Now you tried the editor, maybe you don't like it, so my advice to you is, don't use it. And tell all your friends not to use it, if you like. But please, don't come back to me like I owe you some kind of apology. A couple months ago your ROM got corrupted "ever so slightly" by reVamp. Now you make it sound like you're RUINED!!! RUINED, I TELL YOU!!... and you're trashing the editor like there's no tomorrow. Makes you wonder what happened in the meantime to get you so pissed off. Now Bit-Blade, I'll look at the patch you just released, maybe I'll fix your problem, maybe not, and maybe you'll continue working on the hack or maybe not. And that's fine. I just hate to see you mad at me because you're one of the most dedicated hackers that worked on this game, and I would love to see your hack progress. As I've told you before. Kudos, my friends... rouki |

| Wow. It looks even better now. Sprite error is different than I had imagined (and worries me a wee bit more...). |

Attention, everyone...  Especially Bit-Blade  Here's the fix for those nasty sprites. Using a hex editor, go to offset 3E799. The "corrupt" rom has "E4". Replace that value with "9D". Voil |

| All right then. My bad. Forget the whole thing ! Meanwhile, I found the trouble with your hack. The fix is in the other thread. rouki |

| This is an update for reVamp version 1.0a. It will upgrade reVamp to 1.0b, again a very minor update, hopefully fixing the problem encountered by Bit-Blade. The only instruction likely to have caused the bug has been removed, even though the code seemed to be OK. To upgrade, apply the executable patch in the reVamp folder. reVamp 1.0a Update rouki (edited by rouki on 06-01-05 05:08 PM) |

Quebec is the oldest part of Canada, and as the first founding nation (bar the native peoples!), has the longest history. It is, in its own sphere, an over-achiever, even though its culture doesn't get the international attention it could have, because of the language barrier (a drop of French-speakers in a sea of English-speakers). English Canadian culture has no particular claim to fame either. That's because of the prominence of American culture, of course -- I believe language is also a nuisance to the emancipation of English Canadian culture (it appears to be struggling to find itself), because the influence of the English-speaking U.S. is greater on them; but that's another story. The question of independance is increasingly becoming a matter of economy, rather than a matter of culture: Quebecers are dissatisfied with the way their taxes are handled, particularly in view of the huge surpluses in Ottawa these past few years, whereas the provinces are struggling with economic difficulties (they assume the costs of most services, including healthcare). This is a problem for all provinces; that is why some other provinces, like Alberta, are slowly following in the trail of Quebec, and asking for change or independance. Who knows what will happen. I'm from Quebec and that's my two cents. rouki |

| Where the hell have you been? Tons of countries have offered help, but Condie said they'll just wait and see before they accept "the best offers". It's all about big politics and diplomacy. And have you already forgotten about Sept. 11? The world was there for Americans on that day. But the U.S. have acted like such bullies since then, I would consider the rest of the world sending ONE CENT to be a significant gesture of compassion!! Compassion for Americans run by such a lousy administration it can barely support its own country in a time of crisis. Who was the president when Osama bin Laden threatened to attack American soil, and then slammed to jet planes in the WTC? Oh that's right, he was reelected in 2004... Anyway, look for "foreign aid" on Google, there's plenty of information. http://www.nytimes.com/2005/09/04/international/americas/04offers.html |

Originally posted by geeogree And I suppose you think this administration will not think twice about WHO is offering the help, and what they might be expecting from the U.S. government in future talks? These countries don't expect anything in return, I suppose, but it's still about having better ties with the U.S. and in particular this administration. Now you can be sure the answers of the Bush administration regarding these offers will have less to do with real needs than with foreign affairs, diplomacy or the lack of it. The president is also worried about what kind of image he's sending to the rest of the world. If they start accepting all aid, even though there is need, the U.S. will look like a third-world country. It already does!! If you don't think all this comes into play - and I do think it's wrong - then you are deluding yourself. That's not to say the federal government is not doing its job, but politics are politics. I'm not saying it would be otherwise if Kerry was in power or something. But you're asking me to forget about politics and government in a time of humanitarian crisis. Well you can tell THAT to the administration!! They're the ones making the important decisions, saving lives OR letting people rot down there in New Orleans! As for the foreign aid not being news in the United States, that's the usual problem with the media. It's as if the rest of the world doesn't exist. Over 40 industrialized nations have offered aid, as well as poor countries who are usually on the receiving end. It's in all the papers. Maybe not on CNN or FOX News, though. rouki |

| Still, Ziffy (may I call you Ziffy? or do you prefer Old Witch?)... The Cuban and Venezuelian offers have to be some kind of joke!! As if the Bushies would accept anything from Fidel or Chavez. Funny old geezers... Still wondering why they won't accept our aid, though. |
