Hi guys! I've been following the progress with SOM Edit for a while, terribly excited as I am about it.
I was hesitant about doing any of my own edits knowing that the software was still very much a work-in-progress and somewhat unpredictable. But I couldn't wait any longer, so I went ahead and spent a few hours today tweaking most of the enemies (my idea being to ramp up the difficulty a little + generally throw in a few surprises.) Well, sure enough, I'm having problems! I get these messages when saving the project (in fact, I don't think saving the project does anything):
And these messages when exporting to a ROM:
Of course, I have no idea what any of this means. There may have been other errors while I was working on it, but I didn't notice. The ROM export is successful, but of course does not work/crashes Zsnes (could share it if anyone is interested, though I doubt it'd be any use.) If anyone has any clues as to what could be wrong / a way of fixing or getting around this problem, I'd be interested. I did update probably half the enemies so I wouldn't be surprised if that broke something. I've closed the program and lost all the progress now I guess, but it isn't a huge problem, I can remember most of what I did and would probably do a better job next time around anyway. Finally I'd also just like to say I'm looking forward to any hacks anyone else makes, or has made. ____________________ http://iridescentaudio.co.uk |

I can confirm that I have had success with exporting ROMs on a couple previous occasions (around a year ago, when I first discovered SOM Edit.) Case in point:
In that instance I only edited a single enemy, so of course there's significantly less to go wrong. But even back then I can remember running into some problems with exported ROMs being unplayable, if I remember correctly. (don't remember the details) Would be content just to work in a project file, but as you can see, it wasn't even saving ~ the file's modified date hadn't changed since not long after I started editing. Thanks for the reply anyway. It would be cool to have a definitive answer! ____________________ http://iridescentaudio.co.uk |

Yeah I think you're right. I edited one enemy using v.0210, and project saving was fine. Using v.0213 however, editing the same enemy+saving produced the same error mentioned in the OP.
This update in v.0211 appears to be responsible, afaik:
Guess I'll wait it out for a new, more stable version. ____________________ http://iridescentaudio.co.uk |

Made a reference list for enemies, since it takes a while to scroll through them on the larger maps and it's quicker to type them if you have the numbers. Thought I'd share it here in case it's of any use to anyone else. Perhaps in future there could be a drop down list rather than (or in addition to) the up/down buttons.
Have been having fun with this myself. Pic related. ____________________ http://iridescentaudio.co.uk |
