Hey! I had a thought.

I started playing classic MM again and started watching speed runs of games, then started getting decent at setting up zips and clips in MM2.

To get better at certain zips (like Item-2 Bubbleman zip), I thought it'd be cool to make something that relied on using Items 1, 2, and 3 in order to get through levels. And I wanted to build in graphics to say how to do it, but maybe that's overreaching for how much time I want to spend.

So to start, I've hacked MM2 so that the items don't run out of energy, and as soon as I figure it out (shouldn't be too bad), I'll have MM start with all Items, too.

Anyway, I'm using Visine for the level editor. Anyone have better utilities available? It seems to do pretty much what I want it to, but it isn't always super friendly. Rock5easily has one that looks really slick, but I can't read Japanese, and I couldn't find a translated version.

Any feedback/criticism is appreciated.

There's two editors on RHDN that can edit RM2 and MM2, snag 'em here.

I found the English Translation of rock5easily's Rockman2 Editor here:
here

Also, meant to say thanks; I had seen those, and thought maybe that one by kuwata would work for me, but I couldn't get it running despite whitelisting it.

edit: fixed link, and added response I meant to include earlier
