| I was just now implementing the SM3 pipes into my hack, and while I got them working fine I was a bit perplexed as to why they weren't showing custom tooltips. I had read in the help files that you simply need to create a .dsc file with the name of your rom in a certain format; I had also noticed that Block Tool did this, or so I thought.
Upon closer inspection I noticed two things which might help other people with the same problem (sorry if it has been posted else where, I did a quick scan and couldn't see it): - Block Tool doesn't handle long names very well and trims the name before creating the .dsc file; my file was one character 'too long' and as a result it wasn't matching up. - Block Tool does not insert the required 0 after the first tab, it just inserts (well nothing) and tabs to the description. So if you custom tips aren't showing up, check the name of the .dsc file exactly matches your roms name; and check that it has 0s (or 1s if you need it) after the first tab: e.g. 300[tab]0[tab]SM3 Pipe - Top Left Cap\nThis is the left side of the... not 300[tab][tab]SM3 Pipe - Top Left Cap\nThis is the left side of the...

Hm? I never had any problems with BlockTool and .dsc files, nor have I heard of any problems until now. Good find, though.  |

| Perhaps my version is out of date (version 2.0 according to readme and about). Or mabey I am just doing something wrong in blocktool . . . though it seems basic enough, lol. | |||

| While I have not encountered this specific problem, I wouldn't be surprised if many, many people had... Considering that blocktool is so poorly written, I mean. Good find, even if it is amazingly basic. I guess. (edited by Professor Logic on 03-28-06 08:08 AM) |
