Nope, I'm good with the Icons.

It's the importing part that I'm stuck with.

 

3 Saves deletes the boss data for Undead Core, and Noxid made the hack. You can look it up.

 

I'm really stressed out... I can't find any way to change the Icon of the game no matter what I do in resource hacker. I even thought that I found out how to do it but I can't replace the icon with the name 0. Can someone help?

And what are the addresses to edit the bosses' HPs?

Here:

Boss offset command
Core: 004744CD MOV DWORD PTR DS:[EDX+40],28A
Ballos ball first 004774C4 MOV DWORD PTR DS:[ECX+40],320
Ballos ball final 00477AE6 MOV DWORD PTR DS:[EAX+40],4B0 [change this number to "1" to end the fight after the first ball form]
Heavy Press 0047C985 MOV DWORD PTR DS:[EDX+40],2BC
Undead Core 004754C0 MOV DWORD PTR DS:[EAX+40],2BC
Dragon Sisters 0047D2EE MOV DWORD PTR DS:[EAX+40],1F4
Iron Head 0047AA4B MOV DWORD PTR DS:[EAX+40],190
Monser X 2nd part 0047E813 MOV DWORD PTR DS:[EAX+40],10
Balfrog 004793E4 MOV DWORD PTR DS:[ECX+40],12C
Omega Omegas coding is so wierd that I couldn't find the value.

I spent an hour hunting for these, your welcome.

 

Dammit! I was mainly looking for Omega's Since I somehow kill it in 5 hits... Oh well, thanks for the other ones.

EDIT: Ugh, please don't call me stupid. I just really don't understand ASM and what values I have to edit. Do I have to tweak the E_X+40, *number* part?

edit the value after the +40

If I wanted to change the core's health to 100 I would do this:

MOV DWORD PTR DS:[EDX+40],256

Also I'f you're having issues with Omega, I suggest you use a fresh copy of doukustu, (it should be VERY easy unless you have added maps)

Why.... am I just now getting this information?

IT NEVER SAID IT IN THE FINE PRINT!!!!

Ehh, this might cause some problems for SS 0.4.0

...

*sigh*

 

you shouldn't be using hacks without understanding what they do
no warranties, no refunds

and to answer the question in the OP, no.

Not to sound nitpicky, but I thought all caps were disallowed in forum posts?

 

When I try to change the Undead Core's health to FA0 (4,000), it doesn't want to work and automatically makes it into 0FA0 for some reason.

 

gosh, I had that same problem just the other day! I went to get some gas and I told the attendant I wanted 5 dollars worth of gas, but the meter rang up 05.00! He tried to tell me it was the same but I know better than that, and so I complained to his manager and after a bit of a row they told me to leave or they'd call the police for causing a public disturbance. Joke's on them though, I didn't have to pay for the extra zero!

 

what?

EDIT: Do I just assemble it anyway?

 

Yes, assemble it anyway. Noxid's pulling your leg. 0FA0 = FA0. Sometimes Olly just adds a zero to the left to keep the number of digits shown an even number. This does not change the actual value.

 

Thanks. Also, is it possible to <ANP entity 150 (Quote) to jump?
(and on a similar vein, can you animate the player directly?)

EDIT: can I make insta-death "spikes" (actually lava) in the spritesheet editor?

 

1. No,

2. No,

03. Not without assembly. I guess technically you can fix them all with assembly but good luck trying.

 

I don't suppose you guys have any idea why CE is insisting one of my maps be 17,301,609 x 28,001 tiles large, do you

As in when you overwrite/save the map, the program set's it to those dimensions, or did it suddenly change to that and CE is just now telling you this.


Either way that's a pretty big mess-up...

 

I'm having a problem with the AI that you get in the Labyrinth, I'm trying to get rid of the Machine Gun aesthetically so that the AI still shoots it, but it looks like it's not there. I've edited all the bmp files that might effect it but it still looks like it has the Machine Gun. Is there anyway to get rid of it?

 

A) .PBM, not .BMP

B) Did you edit data\npc\curly.pbm? That's where Curly's boss graphics are stored (or if you're editing the actual weapon, edit data\ArmsImage.pbm).

You just open .pbms in Paint or equivalents.

EDIT: Don't you mean the Sand Zone? The only AI with a Machinegun I can think of is Curly.
