After quite a bit of downtime, this thing is finally being worked on again. (See original acmlm thread: http://acmlm.kafuka.org/board/thread.php?id=4161 ). I currently have a less-than-stable pre-release up on my board. Major bugs and missing features and probably already well-known, but bug reports and suggestions are always appreciated.

Current edit-ables include:
Maps
Music
Music samples
Tilesets
Tiles
Font
Dialogue/Events
World Map

Blog: http://somedit.blogspot.com

Board: http://somedit.proboards.com/index.cgi (Free board; I recommend having adblock plus)

Build 0105, the latest as of today: http://somedit.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=releases&action=display&thread=77&page=1

A lot of the GUIs are still not very pretty and many of the controls don't work yet. It's mostly still just something to play with, but more functional builds will continue to be posted on the message board.

Made all your links clickable.

Glad to see this is being worked on again, and keep up the good work; I shall have a more in-depth look at it later.

Cool, I'll have to play with this. SOM is a game that should be hacked... ^_~

Ah! Thanks for fixing my links :3

I suppose I should post some updated screenshots. Here goes...

Map editor


Map pieces editor


"Tileset16" editor. This modifies how the 8x8 tiles are assembled into 16x16 tiles.


"Tileset8" editor. This modifies which 8x8 tiles are loaded for use on a map.


Tile editor. Editor for raw tile data.


World map editor


World map tiles editor


World map palettes editor


World map landable regions editor


Music sample editor


Music editor


MIDI importer (still experimental)


Font importer


Events/Dialogue editor


Events search panel


That's it for now. A lot of these things are still in a developmental state, have debug crap all over, and don't quite work right. But some things do actually work now :3

The board wouldn't let me register at all (repeatedly claiming that the name was already taken), and it seems that I need to in order to be able to download attachments. Could you please upload a copy on this board's uploader (linked at the top), assuming it's not too large?

http://acmlm.kafuka.org/uploader/get.php?id=4115 There you go. If you're running x64, replace fmod.dll with fmod64.dll; the existing fmod.dll is x86-only.

Not sure what's up with the board, but it doesn't list you as a user. Maybe they're just having temporary issues.

Enjoy~

Nice! Somehow I'm surprised a C# app works.

Also, I forgot I had dropbox. From now on I think I'm going to start posting builds there: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/19968993/som/FileListing.html

Thank you so much for creating this editour!
Masterflow the man behind Hard Secret of Mana might be interrested in it. In any case your efforts opened us all new ways, which were thought to be impossible for normal mortals.

Nice to know there are people who will use it :3 I've certainly waited long enough to put out a release.. for a long time I didn't really have the spare time to work on it.

Masterflow has actually already helped me with a bunch of stuff, most notably the boss graphic compression (which isn't in the editor yet)

What exactly is the data represented by the "map pieces editor"? It looks sort of like garbage, although its entropy is too low to assume to be entirely such - it's more as if the tiles have randomly been exchanged for completely different ones.

The "composite maps" are composed of any number of those placed at different locations, on different layers, and assigned a tileset. They have no tileset, palette, etc settings themselves, so if you view them by themselves, they tend to just look like garbage.

They look better if you rightclick on a map, and "Edit piece ###" since it will set the tileset and palette settings on the map piece editor.

Edit: right-click is also currently broken for a few maps, like 445, the one you posted a screenshot of :3 it's set to be fixed for the next build.

I accidentally clicked something in the Map Pieces Editor, and now it is spewing

02:15:30 - System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
at Someditc.MapEditorControl.glControl1_Paint(Object sender, PaintEventArgs e)

all over the place.

After some conversation, that has been fixed for the next build :3 it was something I had fixed for the tileset view but neglected for the map piece view.

Moppy, since you are developing the editour, what kind of plans do you have for your SoM/SD2 hack in the future?

As for your board, I have tried now to registrate there with my Wii. As soon as I put the activation key in, the board recognises me as a guest. No matter how often I log in and repeat to put the activation key in, it just doesn't work at all.

It should be mentioned that the proboards location is largely being discontinued and there is now a section on Acmlm for SOM hacking. Please see that board for details!

As far as my own hacks go.. i've always sort of wanted to do a remake of SD1. It was always my favorite in the series and unfortunately Sword of Mana was a pretty disappointing remake.
