She could and should, but I haven't written the code for it yet. I'll need a few spare bytes to back up Rick's inventory/items/weapons/etc. Not too sure where, but I have a few locations in mind I'll try out. Once I have access to some memory to back up stuff into, it's just a matter of...

Out of curiousity and interest, I've decided to start this thread to document Cave Story's bugs and glitches - be they minor or major. I'll get the ball rolling with a few things I've noticed. - Some sloped terrain that meets in > or < point behaves oddly. If your head bumps the bottom part...

Currently, the available version has a bug which causes a trigger not to appear on what appears to be a somewhat random basis. I can't upload my own version because I don't have internet access at home, so that's as far as the demo goes for now. :) The switches are The two parts are Of...

Hehe, I had fun with flags last night. I moved the offset they're read from by a few bytes, which allowed me to access other offsets in memory. I'm still considering writing a MOV (assembly-style, not the tsc command) script command. I have two functions that can take hex from the script and...

I gave that 3hp run a shot (with what's possibly an older copy of the hack - no internet at home for the time being) and got as far as Toroko. Got hit by a stray block. D'oh. Fun, though. If it weren't for that minor mistake, I could probably make it to the core. Monster X never gave me any...

(On a friend's PC; still no interweb at ye old appartment) I found something that appears to be undocumented about MYD. After some poking through the code, I noticed it was considerably long seeing as it should only branch wether the value is 0, 1, or 2, and set a single value to Quote's...

I've gotten a few done, but I'm on a friend's PC at the moment so I can't quite post it. Looks ok, but they're really out of place with the other sprites. ;)

Currently on a friend's PC.. I've cracked the script parser and made a few changes to the commands for the hack. One of the things I did was add a "BTN" command (basically a NOD with a sound effect; I've cut out the delays for text display so I needed a way to inform the player to press a key...

On further review, 0x08 (Direction) is actually a mode the effect runs. For instance, effect 0x01 is a "fountain" type particle explosion that's blue when 0x08 is 0 and red when it's 1. 0x1C is the effect's state. It's not used often but when it is, it's generally used as a flag to determine...

I always felt the faces in CS were weird. Quote looked like his eyes were on the side of his head. But then again he had an unusual perspective. I should edit the sprites in my hack - I tried to follow that convention and it looks just weird, IMO.. Nice work Felixir! If you have no objections...

I'm leaving for a few weeks today, so I figured I'd dump my latest finding here for anyone who wants to pick away at it. The animated effects (the "spark" when a shot hits a wall, the sparkles when you hit your head..) are all stored exactly like NPCs and weapons: via assembly and indexed by...

I love that part. But it seemed to go a bit out of tune with the rest of the song and felt weird. Would've been interesting to see a remixer take a stance on how to perform that part and make something cool out of it.

What do you mean by overview? Some of these are not very obvious. For instance, one of the values covered, I suspect, is a handle to a device context. A device context is basically some immaterial concept used to represent anything graphical that Windows can alter, like a bitmap image or the...

"xyz has nothing on this" means it's nowhere near as good as (something else.) :p He's basically saying the remix version isn't as good as this one is. I agree with you, however. The remix project is great, and definately enjoyable. But too many songs stray too much from the original melody and...

Unfortunately I'm going to lose internet access for a few weeks shortly, as I'm moving back to my appartment tomorrow (long story.) I'm going to try to get a virgin copy of CS to use your Sue sprite and will upload it somewhere for public use. If anyone has a use for it, then hey, coolness...

To obfuscate his data and to prevent editing it. But it's a bad method. A lot of games will do stuff like that, for instance, renaming a zip to .xyz. The only real way to protect your data is to either make it built-into your exe, or to create your own format (and sometimes the latter is more...

Sure thing.

By all means, you're the expert. :p If you can make something like that with higher quality samples, you'd really rock. Not that your current work isn't awesome as it is. I don't think CS gets enough attention from remixers. It has an awesome soundtrack, but apart from Overclocked Remix (whose...

Like I said, Admittedly the field of view would require some adjusting. I suppose an easy solution would be to move the camera forward a bit more, giving more of a "foreward" view. Jumps could be reduced slightly to compensate for the reduced height field of view and for the sake of realism...

Found four new very interesting offsets. 0049E190 <- When set to a non-zero value, flashes occasionally (like lightning) 0049E1C4 <- Flash B color 0049E1C8 <- Flash G color 0049E1CC <- Flash R color The really interesting stuff are the three RGB flash colors. You can make the screen flash...

Nice. You should add a link to the GBA org player, too.

Just sayin'... >"< It's hardly any difficult, just a wee bit of assembly here and there. (24bit version)

It could, but chances are you'll just end up setting, for example, the time you've been playing to 4 minutes. Then next time you try to read from that, you'd end up getting an unset flag because a few minutes have elapsed and the time has changed. <FL+8600 This, for instance, will crash the...

I have a remix of the last battle on my computer that's absolutely awesome. I got ahold of it from the Dokutsu uploader site. It's quite awesome, if anyone knows which one I'm talking about. If not, I could upload it somewhere or attempt to track down the original link...

I've already stated I would not be continuing the guide. Maybe sometime in the future, but at the moment I'm not feeling motived at all to invest that kind of effort if it'll just net me some more flames. I have better ways to invest my time right now, especially considering I'll be losing...
