Quick Modding/Hacking Answers Thread

Yeah, but I think the problem was with my title screen event, so I'm fixing that now.

oh i think i've had that as well where the title screen freezes
do you have to completely end the program? (you can't even press esc to quit and there is no F%F*A&SJ error also?)

One thing I noticed was when i was trying to incorporate "mods" like fullscreen and stuff this happened
only with my game oddly


another odd thing while we're talking about errors:
For some reason every few weeks all my cave story games switch from fullscreen to small screen in the top left corner with everything else gray
why does it keep alternating? and how do i fix it..

 

By any chance, does anyone know how to change the text "Studio Pixel presents" when the game first starts?

Go to the room that is internally titled “Kings", Then change the room name to whatever you want it to be.

 

Thanks for the help!

And if you ever need help with other modding stuff, I can help (sometimes-like whenever I have breaks from school) .

Thanks man, means a lot.

 

Hate to be a bother but does anyone know how to change the version number on the title screen? I probably should've asked this before but i didn't realize it was there.

 

If you have the program, open Resource Hacker and select the Doukutsu.exe file. Once you have it open, click on the Version Info folder and replace all instances of 1,0,0,6 to whatever version you wanna put in. Don't forget to press F5 once you're done, save, and the new version info should be displayed on the title screen!

 

Thanks!

Which full screen mode are you using? Does the issue still occur with "Full 32-Bit"?

Does the issue still occur with the version of Cave Story linked here? https://www.cavestory.org/forums/th...ng-slow-in-virtual-machine.14107/#post-361052
Additionally, what graphics card do you have, and what mods/hacks are you attempting to use?

 

i dont really know what graphics card im using and no mods or hacks on that one
its just weird because it alternates randomly
its fine now but I bet in half a month it'll go back to the gray screen

These instructions are for another game, but you can do the same with Cave Story. Using borderless windowed mode will prevent your issue.

 

I bet somebody has asked this before, but does anybody know how to add more player "skins" for things like challenge mods?

You can use the mimiga mask sprites for one extra set of sprites. If you want more, put the infinite mimiga mask hack in your mod.

 

Infinite Mimiga Mask hack? I... haven't heard of it.

Just copy and paste this with the hex patcher in BL.
