[CO Fix+Source code] KS Editor Mod
« Reply #120 on: March 07, 2010, 21:12:49 »
I can't fix the magenta thing. There's a stupid limitation in MMF that forces you to set a transparent color if there's no alpha channel.
I know the CO display is buggy, I have yet to find out why.

Fixed the CO bug. The source code also comes with the zip, this way I can access and update it from every computer with internet access, and I don't really care if anyone sees it. It's horrible, though. :D

YUS. Thanks.

Edit: Uhh...the game freezes if I try to compress the maps for Outer Reaches or Gaia. :/

Edit: Never mind. X)

Well that sure sucks. Does it freeze or crash? There's a big difference X-P
Just tried Gaia, and it works fine. :huh:

Oh, pfargtl. I posted in the wrong topic. That was meant for KSDS. :P

Anyway, I'm still having lots of problems with this, too. First, I can only use the scroll wheel when I'm holding CTRL, to go by tens. :| Second, it seems that the level editor screws up the transparency if I make a new tileset or, mainly, custom object. It'll show up in-game with a magenta background.

Also, what is the difference between crashing and freezing?

Not sure about the scrolling, my guess is the World.ini editor somehow intercepts the messages sent to the level editor.
I honestly don't know about the transparency thing. I mean, I never save any kind of image.
But well, custom objects don't support magenta transparency anyway, I thought?

A crash is the consequence of an illegal operation, e.g. writing to a protected chunk of data in the RAM.
A freeze is basically just an "infinite" loop that stops the main program loop from being executed (Well, yeah, almost all programs use loops).
Usually they occur because the programmer forgot to set a limit or an exit for the loop.

Thanks.

...wat? Are you saying "Don't custom objects support magenta transparency?" or "Custom objects don't support magenta transparency,"?

I see. Well, how the heck am I supposed to know when it's which? X-P
On an related note, I have DS Organize for my R4 and it crashed before. (I'm pretty sure it's a crash 'cause the screen turned red.) It had a red screen and it said "Guru Meditation Error" with a bunch of other code stuff on it. :P I lol'd. Guru...lol...

Well, magenta transparency NEVER worked for me with CO's!
Windows tells you that "the application does not respond anymore" when it freezes.

Here's an idea:

Why not make it so you can type in the number of the tileset you want, so you jump to that tileset instantly? It gets annoying scrolling through 100 tilesets to get to the one you want.

Edit:

See the attachment for an example of what I mean.

Not planning to make any updates.
I might make a completely new editor just for the challenge and fun once I have more time for these kind of projects.

Oh, I didn't know you stopped working on this. It's a shame too, this is my favorite editor.

I didn't actually stop. I just don't have the time right now really. I might add this feature for you sometime..

The last version still overwrites changes made by Screen Editor to world.ini. Could you make a quick fix by just removing saving of world.ini? I don't use the built-in editor and I'm sure there are many others that don't need it too.

I use the built-in editor. I find it quite convenient.

Just Ctrl+R in the script editor after using the Screen Editor. Save before opening the Screen Editor though.

I guess I could do that if you want, GrayFace. Going to school now so it'll take some hours till I can respond.
