Unless I'm mistaken, "Weapon Edit.txt" is actually Runelancer's work. I just got lucky enough to find the 0x2C bytes of data he was referring to while scrolling down the the experience tables (which he also identified).

Is it possible for me to cameo in this mod? If so, I will whip up some sprites tomorrow.

Right
According to "Weapon Edit.txt" in Stuff.zip, each weapon has basic info of length 0x2C starting with weapon damage somewhere in the exe. At 0x8F494, I find 0F 01 00 00 1E 00 00 00 24 00 00 00 08 00 00 00 08 00 00 00 04 00 00 00 02 00 00 00 08 00 00 00 08 00 00 00 08 00 00 00 08 00 00 00, which is 0x2C long and is followed by 0x06. Changing the 0c0F at the beginning to 0x0A causes the displayed damage by level 1 blade to be -10 instead of -15
The 0x6 is blade lv2 damage. Changing it to e.g. 0x9 makes its maximum damage 27.

The value after the damage can be used to make the bullets hit multiple times (go through enemies).

Haha, SP was wrong. Someone DOES know how to do it. Too bad she is at school now, if not I'd be rubbing this in her face.

I'm not god you now.
Actually, it's nice that someone posted it here.

Wow, thanks! I'm at school atm, I'll toy around with the weapons when I get home from school.

Actually, I'll toy with them now, the site for the hex editor isn't blocked if I recal, and I have cavestory in my school email ;P

EDIT: Yep, it works... I guess I'll fiddle around with the values a bit to see what strange effects they'll have on the game. Maybe I could make a weapon that kills everything on screen? :p

My msn is borked, it freezes my computer somehow... dunno.

I was joking in the fact of adding some form of uber-weapon to the game, I'm not about to, and I'm trying to keep my weapons reletivly balanced.

Current weapon list:

Sword - Kira Mitsukai
Lv1 : 5dmg (1hit)
Lv2 : 5dmg (3hit) (total of 15 dmg)
Lv3 : (default)

Snake - Dragon Breath (Alt Character)
Lv1 : 2dmg (1hit) (Through walls if I can't disable it)
Lv2 : 4dmg (1hit, through walls) (2hit if I can't disable for lv1)
Lv3 : 6dmg (3hit, through walls)

Polar Star - >Needs a name<
Lv1 : 1dmg (1hit)
Lv2 : 2dmg (1hit)
Lv3 : 3dmg (2hit)

What about a weapon that does medium damage at lvl1, massive damage at lvl2 and worse than ducks damage at lvl3 with only 1, 3, or 5xp separating lvl2 from lvl3. It will make the Nemesis looks like a weapon for beginners in comparison. :D

Try giving serious suggestions would be helpful I guess.

Well ZTaimat, can you give us any hints how this edited weapon will look, so we can give you some advice, if you please? :o
