Quick Modding/Hacking Answers Thread

Okay, I realised that. But you guys could correct me, which would be more productive than those sarcastic insults.

But we were correcting you? That's been like all of the last 10 posts or so.

 

I think your quoting the wrong person???

Anyways, Big9ize, If you want to change the starting scene you need to edit the map named "Kings" that's the map used in the beginning cutscene.

Thx Kenzo! Hopefully I will be able to finish the entire game. I'm always lazy and I want to start doing something, but never actually finish doing what I'm doing.

I want to use it to replace the <FAC command.

Where can I find the starting value of the player's air?(you know, when the player enters a body of water without having the air tank)

Look at 0x4169C4 - the initial value is 1000 (3E8h).

Look at 0x4169C4 - the initial value is 1000 (3E8h).

The actual variable is a DWORD at 49E6DC, and is actually 10 times the air value shown; it counts down from 1000 (base 10).
There are 3 pieces of code for water, there's the water tile, the water level entity, and something else.
Offsets for codes that set the air value:
41699D
4169C4 (Mentioned by q3hardcore)
41D47F
The value it sets it to is 0x3E8, or 1000 in dec.

I think you have to delete the boss NPC or change it to something else.

And uh, make sure the boss runs event on death, and it's event number is 400.

Is it a legitimate shootable entity with an actual AI? Does it have flag 0x0200 set? You do need to actually delete it after the fight, if 0x0200 is set, BTW

OK. Thanks. Since this is my first boss battle (I'm experimenting)' I didn't really know what to do. Thanks for the help.

I mean, you could always look at the TSC used in the vanilla game for some examples on what you should be doing with them.

Make the picture > put it into data folder > name it whatever you want as long as it has the "bk" prefix.

Just change the original maps to your own.
