Imajin: Yep, that's it. Although it appears that it depends on the level what value is what - that is to say, they're mostly identical, but the lone, unused spike block in Cutman's stage as seen in the first screenshot doesn't do anything to Mega Man, despite having the same collision/solidity type as those of other stages (0x03, marked in red).

Anthony: It's for Mega Man: Dr. Wily's Revenge, the first of the Mega Man games for the Game Boy. I'm probably going to be ready for a first release next week, so you'll be able to play around with it then

Also, another new screenshot, showing how some of the base properties of each enemy/object (health, etc.) can be modified:



(Still needs improvement, as ex. the Flags setting controls things like "is harmful", "is walkable", etc. Probably a bitfield or somesuch...)

(Also note that the Weapon Properties tab doesn't do anything yet, as I'm still 11 of 16 bytes short of having their data deciphered, four of the five known bytes being pointers )

Darkdata: Heh, well, would be cool to see someone use this once it's out

And again, new screenshot time:



The weapon property editor! ...or, well, this rudimentary thing that allows tweaking some stats for weapons where I don't know which is which (besides 00, which is the normal Mega Buster). I think the only really useful options there so far are Max. Active Shots and Strength, how many shots the weapon can fire at once and how much damage they do, respectively.



And the "new" main window, now with a toolbar! As well as some other, not yet editable things being displayed: The vertical blue line is Mega Man's spawn point for the current segment, and the orange triangle in the lower left is the exit to the previous room (accurately displayed in position and width even). There's also green triangles which show the exit to the next room. Also of note, curiously enough, some exits are double the needed width and thus halfway stuck in walls, such as the one connecting the first and second room in Cutman's stage; its counterpart in room #2 also being this width:



Guess those are level design leftovers from the game's development? And they do work properly like this in-game once the wall block has been removed, so it's not just me interpreting the data wrongly

EDIT: Ever wanted to dance around on one of those Cutting Wheel thingies? Probably not, but anyway:

Two weeks and no screenshots from anyone? You're leaving me no choice but... to double-post!!11one



A post with some information about Sonic R's model format over at Retro made me check it out myself, and that above is the result of one or so hour of work. Okay, it's the PC version, so this isn't strictly "ROM hacking", but it's close enough

Two things, for one...



I actually am doing a small hack of Wily's Revenge, instead of just writing the editor. It isn't going to be anything big, just me messing around with the editor and a hex editor. Changed some graphics, reimplemented the unused spikes, etc.

And next...



Yeah, well, I'm kinda getting used to C# and wanted to do something with Zelda again, so... it's another incarnation of OZMAV, basically, for the moment called "SayakaGL". This time, with a proper GUI - or once it's in some state of completion, anyway. Currently, it can load scenes from the MQ Debug ROM and render them with a very rudimentary Display List interpreter, but I'm trying to make it something comparable to Utility of Time. OZMAV2's already there, technially, but the user interface admittedly sucks if you actually want to hack the game with it.

I like C#:




(Oh, and I like figuring out new things about those games)

Movement paths, yep - but no idea who or what the paths in the MM screenshot are related to, tho. There's, like... right now, I don't even know how many there are. Gotta fire up the program quickly and have a look...

...well, while there's "only" 8 paths, one of them has 74 waypoints, another one 47, another 24.

The paths will be editable just like actors, in that you drag the waypoints around the map, which in turn changes the path the actors take. Funny thing is, btw, that while they do adhere to gravity and ground collision, they just walk straight through walls and into the abyss below - accidentally made one of the Kakariko carpenters in OoT do that while figuring out how the paths work
