Well what happens if you wanted to make a challenge sort of thing, you start with everything, then edit the overworld so that the palaces are in a pattern going up seeing how long you can take to complete it. I'm sure someone would use it for something.

I always thought that the completion of the palace would make it go to a rock. Anyways, As soon as I can get some help on the compression and location of the overworld, I will work on that.

Well, I will make a concept on how I want it to look, then If people Like it, I'll put it into the actual editor, if not, I'll stick to VB's generic grey. And I will put out a few betas to see if people can just pick it up instead of having to ask for help on how to get it to work.

OK, In the overworld viewer, how can you see the hex offset of the tile that is selected, and is it compressed? If so, how?

I'm sure that could ruffle up a few things.

I went through it, Maybe I need more help with a picture of some kind. Also, I looked through a fresh ROM and an edited one, I couldn't see any difference.

Well I think I located where the first overworld starts and ends.

5064 - Start of overworld tiles.
538B - End of overworld tiles.

I edited one with DWEdit's one and compared with an actual comparer this time. Not by hand. If anyone can confirm this, that would be great.

I've almost got an overworld editor working, I know where most of the data is, how it's formatted, what number represents what tile and I know how to write to a picture, so all i have to do is figure out how to deisplay the info in the actual pic.

It really depends if I can find the pointers for it, if I can, then it will. If not, you will have to edit around it.

SOunds like your creating an editor, I know how to write to a certain part of an image, but not get one from a file. Did you try looking for examples? A few ROM hackers here have some good ones.

Everything looks good except for those chess pieces. They just don't fit in well.

Posted on 03-16-06 10:48 PM, in I want to change my smilies system... How ? Link
Why don't you change the str_replace to have a space infront or behind the smiley. So it would only recognize if there was a space infront or behind it.

Change:
$msg=str_replace($smilie[0],"",$msg);

To:
$msg=str_replace(" " . $smilie[0],"",$msg);
-or-
$msg=str_replace($smilie[0] . " ","",$msg);
-or-
$msg=str_replace(" " . $smilie[0] . " ","",$msg);

THe first one recognizes a space before, the second a space after and the third detects both front and after spaces.

Posted on 03-19-06 11:50 AM, in VB6 Halving strings Link
I can't seem to locate a function that can let me half a string. When I tried to make one, I couldn't find anything that would remotly help me in doing so. So does anyone have a function that would let me turn a string into an array.

Example:
String = "AE"

after putting this string through the function:
hlaf("AE")

the array would come as follows:
results = Array(
1 => "A"
2 => "E"
)

Or something along those lines.

I like it how I can start in 1-P mode then switch to 2-P mode midway in the game. I somehow think you arn't supposed to do that.

Well progress is coming nicely on the overworld editor, it's starting to load tiles, but not in the exact way of the game, but you can recognize them.

Also, if someone can find the offset/byte that controls the length of the sword projectile that would be great.

[Edit] Also, the byte that tells the game to go to the next line on the overworld map would be good.

Well it's hard to spot errors when you don't get stuck in them... I never got stuck in the boosts, i never saw the ice bit with the hills.

Yea that's what it uses, i have figured it out mostly.

"AE" is the offset.
"A" controls the length of the tile in decimal plus 1. So A would be 11.
"E" controls the type of tile it is. I have a list as follows:
0 - Town
1 - Blank
2 - Palace
3 - Ramp
4 - Sand
5 - Grass
6 - Forest
7 - Swamp
8 - Graveyard
9 - Path
A - Lava
B - Mountain
C - Water
D - Walkable Water?
E - Rock
F - Spider

I just can't figure out how the game goes to a new line.
