I'm working on a world map editor for smb3 and I made a small mistake in the map loading algorithm: (edited by beneficii on 06-17-05 03:05 AM) |

Thanks, y'all, anyway, but I had already fixed it. I figured what I had done wrong pretty quick. It's just that the program worked better than expected, since usually I'm not nearly that successful the first time I show something. Here's another screenshot  : Basically, I shoulda inverted the y position. like Lenophis said. (edited by beneficii on 06-17-05 04:48 AM) |

Originally posted by hukka Right, we could probably work on getting a unified editor. BTW, I'm making great progress. I got it scrollable and to display map sprites and now I'm just writing the classes for each of the aspects of the editors (I'm trying to make it object-oriented). After that, probably a few display details (but this is largely done), and then it's on to making my dialogs and adding child windows to my main window. The features I plan to implement for the upcoming ALPHA release are drawing tiles onto the map; changing the world's tile palette; adding/deleting sprites (up to 9 total per world) and changing their attributes; editing map pointers; editing lock positions; editing pipes; editing airship retreat points; and editing Mario's start spaces and giving the option of patching my ASM hack for starting spaces. I already have a pretty good idea of how I'm going to do each of the above, so I am confident that all features will make it into the ALPHA release. EDIT: The RAM addresses are all that I need. With the RAM addresses, I can easily find the ROM addresses. I'll find it out and implement it in a later release of my editor. (edited by beneficii on 06-18-05 09:03 AM) |

Originally posted by Ringodoggie Doesn't mapper 4 have certain fixed sizes for the ROM? Also, did you make sure to put the last $4000 bytes of the PRG-ROM in the original game also the last $4000 in your expanded ROM? In mapper 4, the last $4000 bytes of the PRG-ROM are hardwired to certain addresses, depending on your settings. (edited by beneficii on 06-19-05 01:31 AM) |

| Here is a class: class basic { public: basic() {;} ~basic() {;} int load(int curwold); int save(); int *getworld(void) {return &world;} int *getpalettenum(void) {return &palettenum;} int *getmap_tiles(void) {return map_tiles;} int *getanimrate(void) {return animationrate;} int *get1stmusic(void) {return &firstmusic;} int *get2ndmusic(void) {return &duringmusic;} int *getsize(void) {return &size;} private: int palettenum; int map_tiles[0x240]; int size; int world; int animationrate[4]; int firstmusic; int duringmusic; }; For the line, int *getmap_tiles(void) {return map_tiles;} My compiler (gcc) for some reason keeps giving me the error of: "expected declaration before '}' token" Basically, this is stumping me. As you can see, I declared map_tiles already, as an array under the private level. Basically, all that is meant with the function int *basic::getmap_tiles(void) is to return the pointer to map_tiles. When I comment out getmap_tiles(void) (and the other functions that access it), there is no error. int *basic::getanimrate(void), which is very similar, does not return an error at all. EDIT: Never mind. It was something unrelated, but for some reason instead of telling me the real problem, it simply kept fooling with me with that.

| OK, guys, I'm coming up to the hardest part of making my editor: setting up the classes so they can work together, and then setting up the windows and having them work with the classes. This is going to be a hard job. Wish me luck. |

| Me, in my program, I'm doing it the hard way. Basically, my editor will draw all boxes onto the window, clears them off, etc., without consulting the Windows API. After getting the bitmap with all the settings I want, I'll finally draw it onto the screen. Maybe I'll do it the WInAPI way later, but I just want to do it my way for now. Maybe when people start writing better tutorials on the subject.... | ||||||||||||||||

Originally posted by Priere Well, that depends. Sometimes an increased number of light earthquakes will lead up to a big one. The New Madrid Seismic Zone, centered in southeast Missouri and in which these two earthquakes occurred, has a history of producing big earthquakes. |

| According to the thing I have 752 lines of code in my cpp file and I have 852 lines of code in my header file. I hope to get the thing done this week. Wish me luck! BTW, here's some code from it: #include < #define IDI_ICON 0x1000 And here's a picture of my main screen:  The other screen I showed you was of my concept-testing program. I'm just messing with you guys. Here's a piece of code that updates the lock data after the user edits it. It's part of the lock_table class: void update(LOCKDATA *lockdata) { for(int i = 0; i < TBL_LOCK_NUM; i++) { clearset[ expx[ expy[ if(expy[ clearset[ expy[ if((lockdata[ replacementtiles[ if(lockdata[ replacementtiles[ if(lockdata[ replacementtiles[ tileimitated[ todraw[ }} EDIT: Dang it! I wish you guys had some sort of code tag! EDIT #2: Fixed by BMF.

| I wrote an RPG-ish little maze game called BKG test for the NES ages ago, and the method I used was just to see if there was a wall in the space the player was trying to go. Basically, have your program detect before hand where the hero will go and see if there is going to be a collision, then have the code execute something based on it. | ||||||||||||||||

| Thanks, BMF. I'll look at the post and see exactly what you did. I have been making progress on my hack. I have two more classes to finish, the toolbox and the starting_table classes, before I start on the API. The code you saw in my post was part of the lock_table class, which, unlike most of the functions, was not declared in the class and written later, but out of a bit of laziness and being tired of scrolling all the way down was written within the class definition itself. The blank window and the resource.h file were (I thought obviously) jokes, just a bit of stress release from all the work I put into the project. Again, I think I may be done this week. I don't know for sure, because that depends on if other things come up this week. Anyway, back to work! |

Well, I believe that people generally have the right to their own stuff. If they want to own drugs, guns, or what not, then they have a right, provided they don't attack other people with it. Prohibiting victimless things (such as gun ownership), I think, leads us down the wrong path, because in the end it only empowers the government to move against its citizens, simply by virtue of being victimless. The reason for victimless crimes causing this is that because there is no victim to report it, the government must take other measures to find and catch people who are breaking their law, thus leading to things like questionable searches and seizures. |
I think attempts to regulate society as a whole and to force people in a certain direction is wrong and in the end does not work.

Well, I disagree. If a pharmacist does not fill a birth control prescription, that pharmacist isn't making a moral decision for the person having the prescription filled--they may think so, but they're not. They are owners of their private property and they don't want to dispense birth control pills in their store, as simple as that. |
