Posts: 4233/5072		 Well you said you wanted updates... I fixed the texture stretching problem, it was just textures using GL_CLAMP_TO_EDGE. Moo Moo Farm apparently has several instances of a command not used anywhere else, hence its failure to load. Currently deciphering a few commands and fixing a zillion bugs that just kinda appeared out of nowhere.

1) The AI don't fall because they're set to follow a specific path that does not tell them to drive down an endless hole. Or at least, that's what I get out of it.

2) Nope. Not me at least.

And frankly, I prefer a stupid and cheating AI over a smarter one that keeps lagging behind becuse of obstacles...

Posts: 1/4		 but there are some spots where AI doesnt cheat , visible or not (e.g rainbow road's loop or Wario Stadium's 3rd curve..) , there should be a trick to make this apply to the whole track

Is it possible to take a ride on pure white courses with your editor?
It will be then interresting, but hard.


I wouldn't think it was hard, a pure white course would just be editing all the graphics so it would all be white.

It is possible to make a track editor for MK64 it would just be complicated. The reason making a track editor for F-Zero X is easier is because nintendo made and expansion that allowed you do do so. All the guy who was making it (cant remeber name, sorry) had to do was replicate what was in the expansion disk and make it run on PC.

Posts: 4/40		 To change V64 to Roms you need a Programm: "fliprom.exe" or "Tool64_v1.11.exe"!
"Tool64_v1.11" is better.
(I surfed in internet and found a page that have useful downloads)

and the Level Viewer of HyperHacker works!

your Level Viewer is good!



Q: How long did you work at your MK Level Viewer?
