I AM HERE TO HELP ALL THE PEOPLE!

Click to download literally everything I've ever made before 7/21/16

---TSC commands---

<IBF ;Infinite booster fuel at your fingertips (toggleable)

<RNJ ;Randomly Jump to any TSC command.

<WND ;Identical to BBP?

<INV ;inverts controls, run twice to go back to normal
Code:
#define

NEXT_TSC_command = 00424F33

KeyForLeft = [493630]

KeyForRight = [493638]


#enddefine

MOV EAX,DWORD PTR DS:[4A5AD8]
ADD EAX,DWORD PTR DS:[4A5AE0]
CMP BYTE [ECX+1],49                                   ;Check for the letter I
JNE NEXT_TSC_command
CMP BYTE [ECX+2],4E                                   ;Check for the letter N
JNE NEXT_TSC_command
CMP BYTE [ECX+3],5v                                   ;Check for the letter V
JNE NEXT_TSC_command

mov eax, KeyForLeft
mov ecx, KeyForRight
mov KeyForRight, eax
mov KeyForLeft,  ecx

ADD [4A5AE0],4                                       ;Fix the script position

JMP 004252A7                                         ;Jump Back to Beginning of Parser


And for you n00bs, you will also need this
Code:
offset 00424EAF

JMP 0046D5D0
RNJ and IBF are packaged together, but you can easily split them.



---NPC's---

Boo ;A Boo from SMB3

Buzz Bomber ;From Sonic 1

NPC Renderer ;A nice baseplate to build off if for your NPC's

Save Disk ;An optimized save disk. (who could possibly want more)

Event NPC ;Wait's however many frames you set the script state (minus 1) to and then becomes beside quote.
Code:
push ebp                    
mov ebp, esp
sub esp, 10

mov dword [EBP-10],0  
mov dword [EBP-C],0   
mov dword [EBP-8],0   
mov dword [EBP-4],0

---DoR2 Hacks--- Click
Altar: I think it changes sprites when you set the proper scriptstate
Curly + From the headless Curly battle
Curly Bullet I rebuilt the bullet so that It can fire down as well as the other directions
Curly Head The Head from the Curly boss battle
Duck Cannon Shoots a projectile every X frames, direction it faces can be altered via....direction
Duck proj Flies forward until it hits a wall, then it becomes smoke
exe Sonic gets closer to you, starts at the far left of the screen. set the event number to a number other than "0" to have it change sprites
fire (disappears) A fire that disappears after a while (at random) UNUSED
FLY The Gravity NPC thing, set scriptstate to 1 to begin to fly up, set it to 2 to fly up, and to 3 to fly down. (immediately set to 2 or three to teleport to the NPC's position and then fly in that direction)
null NPC Because My exe was acting up
Quote Copy Those weird things that walk left and right...
Quote float down For the Toroko ending set state 1 to float down, set state to 2 to die (makes a lot of smoke)
red fireplace A fireplace that flickers faster then normal
red lightning the Lightning NPC that has two sets of sprites. (check caret.bmp)
save disk blue a save disk, setting direction to 2 reads for a different part of the spritesheet
torch a torch that just stands there, increase scriptstate to increase frame number

and in the boss folder:

Blue Quote Runs toward you, they jump at you more often than not
Curlies I dunno, they were suppose to fly out of the walls but I didn't actually use them... UNUSED
Giant Duck A giant NPC that flies to the left
green proj first ??? UNUSED
Itoh Used in the spider demo (check npcfinal2_OLD)
mastermind The Boss
Quote Curlies The things that jump around
Spear those weird thunderbolts that flash.


All I ask is that you give credit where credit is due, or I will find you and destroy you.



Thank you ;)



E: fixed the downed links.

I see you finally released your hacks to the public,

That just means I have to debut my upcoming mods, which I had requested the IBF and RNJ commands for, before all the younger fellas ruin the whole experience for everyone.



I guess it's time to get down to business then.

I'm trying to use the IBF command and I assembled it correctly, it's not showing up in the commands list and is red when typed.
I made sure the .exe and .txt files were in the assemblers folder and used the multi file assembler, but nothing happened.
Could you help me with the problem, Bombchu?

CE and BL don't magically know what TSC commands there are in the executable -- the commands list is based off of a text file that was created beforehand.
i.e. even if you properly installed <IBF, it would appear as red in the ediors.

Try using the <IBF command despite what the editors are telling you, and if you're still having problems then report back :)

Yeah what he said.

BL doesn't show errors in the script, but it doesn't show the argument numbers.

You *can* edit the text in BL and CE to have it support the instruction, but the <RNJ command wouldn't be supported because of the differing argument numbers.

Two questions:
What do you mean by an optimized save disk?
And will applying these hacks mess up hacks I have already made to the executable?

The optimized save disk I believe condenses that entity so that it uses a less amount of space, letting hackers use the newly freed space without compromising anything.

And these hacks could potentially "mess up" your custom hacks, but it depends on if they are writing to the same offsets. I know a little bit about where the <IBF command has it's code, but you're going to have to check to see if they overlap each other yourself and/or ask Bombchu the specifics.

What Enlightened said.


Just check the offsets at the beginning of each file if you're not sure. (and if your that stuck then post some stuff here and I can do some figuring out for you)

And btw, you will need to do some tweaking to RNJ/IBF if you have the <MIM hack applied.

Cooked this one in a few minutes, not incredibly helpful but still.



<INV



Inverts the controls, left is right and right is left, It's also gamepad/controller proof!

Run it again to make right, right and left, left again! (still works after dying so you will need to throw a flag/jump in the death script)
Code:
#define

KeyForLeft = [493630]
 
KeyForRight = [493638]

Theoretically, that could be changed fairly easily to spawn any other entities, right?
If that's the case...
Could you make it spawn itself???
What would happen?
Would the game just give up?

Technically it can't spawn other things. I used the XP spawn function instead of the NPC create function. (It would create the same result, but I wanted to test the function out)

And also, once it spawned 255 it would just quit spawning them.


E: hmm, it could be used as a cap to keep projectiles and such from spawning if I would have rigged it that way.

The entity cap is 512 (0x200), not 255.
Depending on how the entity create function is called though, it could cap out at 255 (since you can indicate what index to start from, and normally spawned enemies start spawning at index 0x100).

Yet ANOTHER simple but powerful request from enlightened.





Event NPC: Waits however many frames the scriptstate is set to (minus one) and then clings to quote.



Code:
push ebp                       
mov ebp, esp  
sub esp, 10

mov dword [EBP-10],0     
mov dword [EBP-C],0      
mov dword [EBP-8],0      
mov dword [EBP-4],0 
setpointer 

cmp npc.scriptstate,0
je :end_of_code

cmp npc.scriptstate, 1
je :attach_to_NPC
dec npc.scriptstate
jmp :end_of_code

:attach_to_NPC
mov eax, PlayerXpos
mov edx, PlayerYpos
mov npc.X eax
mov npc.Y edx


:end_of_code
mov esp, ebp
pop ebp

It's pretty useful if you have "run event on contact" active and give it an event #.



It's almost like having a second TSC event active (sort of-ish except it won't run until the previous event is done.).

MOAR stuff

You do take new TSC command hack requests, right? Could you (please) make a straight-up duplicate of <CMP which just works without smoke? There must be some line of code in there telling the game to make entity #XX (I forgot what it was for smoke), so you could just change that into entity #00. I'd do it myself, but there are other things I'd mess up with, like making it parse smoothly or something.

Am I being clear enough?

I /almost/ made exactly that for DoR2 before changing my mind yet again. (that game went through a lot of overhaul)





Ehh, I'll see what I can do.





E: and also, there isn't really a "smoothly" in there, it works or it don't. (that's the beauty of ASM, if you messed something up it lets you know fast.)





EE: Well that was fast.

Basically all you need to know is use <CM2 instead of <CMP if you don't want smoke and don't do any hacks over the save disk.



And I tested everything except the smoke part, but it should work.



EEE: I don't know why, but this function won't work, standby.

Sorry, but I'm sort of dumb with this stuff and I'm having some problem with implementing it. I tried using an assembler for the part at 424eaf and copied the hex data you provided at 429e72, but the game just crashed. What am I doing wrong?

/\ that means it don't work and will crash.


I'm totally flabbergasted as of why though, I can't change the NPC to be spawned (default smoke) without crashing the game.

Well, whatever. You tried, and it's the thought that counts. Most of the time. Right?

This enables you to use the <CMN command that I made. It functions identically to <CMP, except that it doesn't generate smoke. It does not replace any existing code, so <CMP can still be used in the EXE that this hack is applied to.

Enter the code segments above one at a time in the Doukutsu assembler, or use the multi-file assemble that I'm not in the mood for messing with right now. Please note that this may mess with other stuff if you're using Noxid's optimized TSC parser, or if you're currently using any other custom TSC hacks. This was originally designed for my personal use and not really meant to accommodate other people's hacks, so use at your own risk.

What I did was make it skip over the duplicate <FAC command and then go to the bottom of the EXE so that it has room for the code for this command, as well as any other command you wish to add. Then it either goes back to the beginning of the TSC parser, or jumps back to where it previously was in the TSC parser and continues past the duplicate <FAC command, depending on whether or not the command being scanned was <CMN.


@BLink
Why spawn NPC 00 if the intent is to make it spawn nothing? I wonder if that's why your code didn't work.
