Quick Modding/Hacking Answers Thread

Hold down the jump button.
Just make the call for the sprite go to the sprite that you want.

 

or just change the in-mid-air sprite to be the jumping-aiming down sprite. granted it won't make them aim down, it will just look like it.

 

Wait, doesn't it use a walking frame for the jump?

 

no. there's actually two new frames for being in the air doing nothing.

don't listen to me I have no idea what I'm talking about

 

kuro's mistaken, they are the same as the walking sprites

 

Is there a template I can use off of to script a fetchquest for 4 items, and the next event will only occur after all 4 items are obtained?

 

Look at MALCO. The grasstown fetch quest works that way.

 

Okay, I got the fetchquest to work! I kinda find the item flagging structure a bit weird and extensive. Maybe that's why there aren't much mods with fetchquests in them?

 

No, it's because fetchquests are a terrible concept

 

how do you change the blade slashes from blade level 3 to a different bullet?

 

Super quick question of quickness: is it ok to replace XXXX with actual music?
Or does Cave Story actually make use of those 21 seconds of silence?

 

it loops that track to play no music

 

So replacing it would be a very, very bad idea, got it. Thanks!

 

Depends on your perspective of bad I suppose

 

I don't know if this will help me but is it possible to add in additional songs to the game? Is there a pre-existing ASM hack for it or something?

Indeed, there is.

 

I dont know much about asm but, looking at what the page says, when I look, the data is in a different place in the exe. I cant find the asm code. What am I doing wrong?

 

Hi everyone,



I'm having a bit of trouble with intre-map doors.



Here's the script I'm using:

#0202

<KEY<SOU0015<HMC<MOV0057:0013<WAI0020<SMC<END



#0203

<KEY<SOU0015<HMC<MOV0058:0025<WAI0020<SMC<END

When moving from door #0202 to #0203, everything works as intended, but when moving back the other way, there is a delay and a stuttering sound before the script runs. To be precise, the sound appears right when Quote faces the door (after pressing down).



Do any of you have any ideas as to what might be causing this? I've tried running the script without <SOU0015, but the buggy sound persists.



Thanks a bundle.

 

Dont know if this will work but I changed the script to be a bit more appealing:



#0202
<PRI<CNP0202:0000:0000
<SOU0011<HMC<MOV0057:0013<WAI0020<CNP0203:0000:0000<SMC<END

#0203
<PRI<CNP0203:0000:0000
<SOU0011<HMC<MOV0058:0025<WAI0020<CNP0202:0000:0000<SMC<END

 

Thanks for the reply (and for moving my post to the appropriate thread).



I copied your code, but I still have the sound issue unfortunately. The sound bug is triggering with other doors as well, including doors meant to move to a new map.



I'll copy the entire script I have and then describe the problem in more detail:

#0200

<SMC<FAI0004<END



#0201

<KEY<CNP0201:0000:0000<SOU0011<HMC<FAO0004<TRA0001:0206:0007:00010<END



#0202

<PRI<CNP0202:0000:0000<SOU0011<HMC<MOV0057:0013

<WAI0020<CNP0203:0000:0000<SMC<END



#0203

<PRI<CNP0203:0000:0000<SOU0011<HMC<MOV0058:0025

<WAI0020<CNP0202:0000:0000<SMC<END



#0204

<KEY<SOU0011<HMC<FAO0004<TRA0016:0202:0037:0004<END

Door #0201 works perfectly fine, but now door #0204 is acting in the same way as door #0203 in that it triggers the earlier described sound bug, and then moves the player to the coordinates (58, 25) on the same map.



Is it possible that I've somehow corrupted the .exe file? I'm pretty new to this business, but I'm having trouble seeing where the problem in my script is.



Thanks again.
