How much do you know so far about hex editing? I will try to help you with what you don't know. Do you understand about hexadecimal numbers?lmaokrn said:and perhaps the hex editor?
Not everyone knows about addresses, hexidecimal numbers, that they repesent characters or a number from 0 to 255, that it also represents each byte of information in a file, how to use a hex editor, etc.RuneLancer said:My suggestion is to just fire up your hex editor or Sue's Workshop, and see what comes out of it. What's the worse that can happen? You scrap your exe and restore a backup of it? No harm done...
Unless you have any specific questions...?
Anyone can look up a hexadecimal tutorial on google. When'd having a little initiative go out of style anyway? The very first hit for "hexadecimal tutorial" looks like a very, VERY good tutorial (edit: huh, it really IS awesome - I really recommand this one) and only took 8 seconds to find (I had to stop and switch songs on my playlist in winamp and I was being undecisive... )andwhyisit said:Not everyone knows about addresses, hexidecimal numbers, that they repesent characters or a number from 0 to 255, that it also represents each byte of information in a file, how to use a hex editor, etc.
You need to keep this in mind when you are teaching someone these things, it is easy to forget to include the bare basics.

As for Sue's, that's mostly what I had in mind when I said "just try and see." Getting started with it isn't hard at all: it's a map editor at its heart. You click on the tile you want, then on the map to lay down another tile. Playing around a bit is the best way to get a good feel for it. Unless lmaokrn had a tutorial for something more specific or advanced in mind, like how the CS scripting language works or doing some unconventional things that don't get a lot of talk like changing tile properties around...
???????????????????Anyone can look up a hexadecimal tutorial on google.
Just started learning assembly yesterday.S. P. Gardebiter said:Some people had trouble with scripting, it was "too hard" for them. If THAT'S hard for you to learn I don't think you can manage assembly in the near future, because assembly is a bit like much more advanced scripting
