I am trying to hack Super Mario World(of course...) and I do not understand how to create my own FG ExGfx tiles for the game. Could you guys please help me? I looked at all of the floated threads, but could not find anything on making ExGfx. I understand editing the graphics in the game, so if that helps anything then all the better!

Sgraff87 told me this:

"I use Tile Layer Pro and and use it's extract option to extract it to an bmp with all of the colors that I would be using. Make sure the dimensions are correct and just draw it.
Import it when finished."

Is that helping?

I do not understand exactly...sorry!....Anyway, what i need help with would be getting tiles from Megaman X2, and converting them for super mario world. I think X2 has compressed graphics, so i was wondering if i could convert and image of the tiles into the game. I also want to know how i get the whole thing into the right format for the game! I think you are telling me to extract the tiles to bmp then edit them, then to import them back. Am i correct?

then just open a savestate in YY-chr, press - 13 time and you should see the graphic(they won't going to have the right pallete)just copy/paste them into a ExGFX

Is it only possible to draw the riles in a program like Tile Layer Pro and YY-CHR? Or is it also possible to edit them in something like MSPaint, then import?

I find that using YY-CHR sucks. Editing a tile has the colors all wrong, and I have to guess which color is which. I don't even want to begin to know HOW you people do the shading with such little bit of colors at your disposal.

just made a copy of a GFX file and call it ExGFXxxx where xxx is a hex number between 80-FFF, and put it in a folder called ExGraphics then click on the blue mushroom to insert them in your rom

OK, cool. So, for 80, it'd be... ExGFX80.bin, or.. ExGFX080.bin?

Also, how do I alter what each tile does? How it acts?

And..when I edited the Koopa sprite with YY-CHR, it only edited one part of the Koopa. One part of the animation. How do I edit the other parts of the animation?

The former. Which reminds me - I have to continue working on that ExGFX guide I was making.

You can change that in the map16 editor if you're using the ExGFX with that.

So i just use yy-chr to make the file? and how do i make the map16 file? And how would i make the tiles assigned to certain objects? And how would i build the exgfx file itself???? Sorry for all the noobish questions, i just want to make a good hack!
