| Before the board died, Blue Antoid of Starmen asked about the sprite assembly in Chrono Trigger, which would be key to making really customizeable characters and monsters. As outlined in Evil Peer's doc, Crono's sprite assembly starts at 1C29B0 Each frame of Crono's animation is a total of 40 bytes each. 32 of those bytes are 2 byte integers that determine which tile of graphics are used to piece him together, from 00 and up. The 32 bytes are followed by 8 bytes that determine (I think) how the 32 are distributed, like Crono's death animation is wider than it is tall. (speculation right now, I havent played with it yet) I'm thinking that making a custom character is going to be as simple as replacing crono's tiles with that of a custom character of your choice, and the tiles can be in any order you want, since your gonna change the sprite assembly anyway. And the animation date is even easier. Changing this along with the sprite assembly means that if you have less frames of character than the original Crono, just change this to re use existing frames. Crono's animation starts at 243200 It goes something like this 00 01 02 03 04 FF 00 - first frame of walking animation 01 - second frame of walking animation 02 - third frame of walking animation etc Terminated by FF, so between every FF is an animation sequence, from running to unsheathing a sword. So, if you wanted to change Crono's win animation to show Crono Laughing instead, it would be all too easy (I've done it) Here is a W.I.P. list of Crono's animation bytes (that I will finish up soon) 00 - facing down 01 - facing left 02 - facing right 03 - facing up 04 - walking down 1 05 - walking down 2 06 - walking down 3 07 - walking down 4 08 - walking down 5 09 - walking down 6 0A - walking left 1 0B -

Well, lets remedy that "I can't change graphics" thing right now.  http://teriisenshi.web1000.com/ff6/ff3se/index.htm A really nice graphics editor from Terii Senshi, for characters, monsters, portraits... http://www.angelfire.com/pq/jumparound/news.html Another graphics utility made by Lord J for the characters, also a great tool. http://www.romhacking.com/utils/graphics.php Romhacking.com's list of graphics tools and tile editors. http://www.romhacking.com/utils/general/palette/snspal03.zip A fantastic tool for snes that lets you search for and edit snes palettes, one of my favorite tools for graphics hacking. |

| I see no point in trashing it. The showcase thread is NOT for feedback of hacks, just for hack posting, making them easy to find. Threads like this are great for feedback, critisism, suggestions, screenshots, etc... | |||

| I would probably just overwrite one of the existing ones, but with Lunar expand, adding extra space is as easy as clicking a few buttons. Repointing the pointers to the graphics wouldn't be all that hard. Most of them I tweaked from existing sprites in Microsoft paint. I remember the game genie code you mentioned. I looked forever for other playable characters, for the longest time thinking it was either Slash, Flea, Ozzie or Schala... I think there were going to be extra characters at one time, in the japanese prerelease, there is a map character that wasn't finished, kind of looks like a soldier.  |

| No, that screenshot was taken when I decompressed and opened an unmodified Chrono Trigger Prerelease rom, its in there, at offset 5A732, just decompress it with Lunar Compress. | |||

| His opinion is every bit as valuable as yours is, reguardless of how you feel. I've been posting here for a year or two, and never once even thought about the titles. Is it that vital to your existance? Put it in your sig. Put it in your header. Earn another one. Plant a tree. Be glad Acmlm's board is back. |

       looks interesting so far. Although the image resolution is kind of bad, it makes everthing look like it has an interesting texture, which might be kind of cool to add. |

| Bleem! I first got a computer, then the internet, and visiting video game sites, I read an article about Bleem! Playstation emulator. Play Playstation games on my computer? NO WAY! On those boards, I was General Leo, and chatted with Randy Linden, PJ, and so many other cool people, who taught me emulation. They even sent me a free Bleem! T-shirt, which I still have to this very day. |

| The plain levels. I feel no rush, or obligation to hurry in those levels. No worry of squid dodging, or slipping off to your doom, just a nice pace in a nice level. Although all the other level types can be outside too, the plain levels make it seem more like an outside level. And I like being outside. |

| When I first got the internet 6 years ago, I was so excited! I wanted to try one of the chat rooms out on Yahoo, so I typed in my name and was all smiles.....untill I found out the name Steve (my middle name, which I go by) had already been taken....MILLIONS of times already. So had my first name, James. I was shattered. I finished the bowl of chickenwings I was eating at the time, and thought, hey, I bet the name chickenlump hasn't been taken (off the top of my head) and lo and behold...it wasnt! I have been chickenlump ever since, and everywhere I register, I never have to worry that my name had already been taken. |

| I attempted to replace one of Chrono's map sprites to that of the soldier, to get an in-game look at him, but the game didnt' like it one bit. Refused to load. Must have something to do with the blue, and palettes... I'm thinking perhaps he was intended as a map resident, like in Wild Arms, how it had townsfolk wandering the world map. The soldier could have been standing in front of a castle to block entrance to it at one time or something. "What is much more likely is that the two extra spaces are for reducing your party to one member" .....wow, thats clever, two blank spaces to make two...blank...spaces.... heh |

Originally posted by Evil Peer Probably things like Crono drinking root beer, sitting against the tree, etc. Marle has a custom animation for opening her big fat mouth. ---Evil Peer XD Not a big Marle fan eh Peer? It will be a pleasure to replace her. Perhaps with Terra from FF6. *writes down idea* JLukas, I think the extra Crono animations also include Crono being torn apart, or disintegrating (when he saves the party in the game, Crono rising off the ground, screen turns white, and Crono kind of....melts away...heh) I tried everything to get that map character to load, it puzzles me beyond beleif! Even the Prerelease won't accept it if I replace even one tile of a playable map character with him. 0_0 Perhaps if I recolor him using the colors the characters are using.... |

Great features, fast, easy on the eyes, table creation support, wild card searching, and it's still only a demo..... ( )I used to have 5 different Hex editors on my hard drive, now I have only two. And Hex Sniper is one of them. Great job Panda. One request though, would it be possible to add in support for the page up button? It currently only goes up and down one line at a time. If not, feel free to push me onto a rusty spike, kick dirt in my eyes, throw stones at my head and call me scum. *looks around for rusty spikes..* (edited by Chickenlump on 03-15-04 06:25 PM) |

| Looking pretty good so far. I have always loved gameboy games for their simple, easy on the eyes graphics. If I ever attempt to play a Pokemon game, I'll start with your hack. The hole in the roof could be a sun roof perhaps? |

| The Spirits Within was an O.K. movie, but it had nothing to do with Final Fantasy. It wouldn't have bombed (as hard anyway) if it had a different title. The hi res trailer to Advent Children has me wanting the movie something fierce! I'm hoping that there will be no Tifa involved in the movie.... |

| Thanks for the release Evil Peer! I am having a much easier time identifiying graphics that were previously unknown, thanks to the get palette from file option, and being able to just go on down the line with it. One of the first things I found while going through the prerelease graphics was a different look for Zeal. (I think it's a different look   )  ------------------minor edit, move along, nothing to see here...------------------------ Someone told me it may not even have started out as Zeal, as technically, in the prerelease, there is no ocean palace (Singing mountain got replaced by it  )and...the placeholder graphic for unfinished monsters....

| Imajin, yes she does, but they are seperate monsters, (like the dragon tank, the wheel, the head, and the body are 3 seperate monsters) and they didn't look different. If you want to have a run through with every monster in Prerelease, just edit offset 3AC305. It should read 92 (which is Gato, change it to edit what monster loads there). Also, Evil Peer, I am a tad confused by the get pointer options... is it for putting in the offset of a pointer table, and having the graphics the pointers are pointing to displayed? I'm not sure what the "Multiply by" and "File maps to offset" & "Add offset" options do. I also must say, your error handling in this program is really great. |
