I mean that Junior Members have more posts than Regular Members. You become a senior member at 80 posts. Now get out of this thread, please. You've done nothing but try to hijack it (make your OWN thread), and you haven't done anything useful. Sorry if that's a bit harsh.

Sorry, but the reason there's a whole sub-forum here is so you can make your OWN threads to ask questions, or ask one in the sticky.

shut up.
both of you.

yes, ryuuoutan shouldn't have asked his questions here, but he had the right idea. not trying to cog up the m/h forums. and nop matter what you think, he was not trying to hijack the thread, if you want to see a real thread hijacking, go check out some of jake's or kage's posts.

whatever, ya both have the fault, but as long as you both know it, that's all that matters.

Anyway, y'all need to use the "Quick Modding/Hacking Answers" thread for stuff like this (that's why it's stickied). And to answer your question, Ryuuoutan, Lace is right, assembly. You need to find the boss's AI in the *.exe file and edit it.

and why should I care? on the internet, he is pretty much a gender neutral term.

and boses don't really have ai, they're just scripted to attack you. before you go looking for the ai tho, you better learn assembly first. (as for finding where it is, depending on which boss, you'll prolly have to do it yourself)

experimentation. if you're too lazy to do it yourself, then you don't deserve to have it done.
sorry if that came off a bit mean, but people really need to learn to do stuff themselves.

Yeah, I just have two more (for now) questions:

Is there any way to make CE autodetect and clip so all the words are on their own lines? I'm using a ridiculous amount of <NOD and <CLR and <WAI0040 because I can't make it fit. There IS a facepic, and I know the amount of characters per line is 27.

Also, I made a Cthulu (something else in my mod) and after you talk to it once, I want it to give you a health capsule, and say something different the time after that. These are both very appreciated, especially if you can re-format the code (as opposed to telling me to put <NOD here and <CLR here and to do something else with a setflag)

Nothing much to do except lots of trial and error... {My cutscenes always take forever :D;}
Though, that's a good idea to ask Wistil to add into CE, an auto-clip for portrait-ed messages...

What? Are you asking for someone to do all that for you?
But you wouldn't learn from that! :(

It's not that complicated, flag jumps aren't too hard. {Have you been checking around the original script? That's a good way to learn all the stuff.}
I see you added in <FL+ commands, but no jumps...
Just stick a <FLJ0210:0210 at the very beginning of event 0200, so the game knows to jump to event 0210 after the player talks to him once. {Because flag 0210 gets set at the end of the event}
Do the same thing with event 0210, except with flag 0220 and event 0220.

No one cares.
Hang yourself.
Besides that:
drawing doesn't have much to do with editing, and the only way you can get better is practice.

Thanks, Lowell. One final (I believe) thing. Is there a way (like in bullet edit in CE, under the options menu) to change where in Bullet.pbm the Snake gets its data from? ecause I want it to shoot something different than the fireball (some unused rectangles at the bottom of the sheet).
