Somebody probably said this already, but just to make sure. Q: How do I change the background, tileset and map name? A: Open the map you want to edit and select Mapdata(the option is in the top left, next to the list of maps and right beneath Script). However, do NOT edit the Filename yet...

I definitely overlooked this one. I'll play it when the full version comes out, without a doubt.

You'll need a .ico file for that. Pretty sure you can convert a PNG to .ico with ease if you use an online converter. At least that's how I did it. You can also try following this thread.

I wonder if this is actually faithful to the original.

Some mods(especially ambitious ones) don't reach completion because the creators lack motivation or because they don't have enough time, which is probably what happened to Sue's Story.

Oh, I see. :O Yeah, I think I misunderstood their use, then. It's no big deal, though. I figured out a couple of tricks to make them do what I want, but it's nice to finally know that, thank you.

Um, does it also happen when you simply import the sprites to "MyChar"? If so, it probably happens because "MyChar" uses an indexed 'color mode'. You need to change that to RGB if you want to import all the colors.

Also, you place entities with the "I" key in Booster's Lab(This is very important!). Don't listen to evil people who say otherwise.

Do you have Java installed?

And remember to experiment with your tilesets when you make a map. You'd be surprised how many interesting combinations you can create. Just a random tip.

Yeah. I assure you it works sometimes. Like, if I fiddle around and then try that again, I found it to be more likely to work.

Uh, I had several weird things happen to me personally, but the one that's really annoying is when I try to replace a group of 4 tiles with another 4 tiles. Like, sometimes it works, most of the time it does absolutely nothing and I just don't understand it.

OK, I have a very important question about Booster's Lab: Are the fill and replace tools broken? Like, I feel like sometimes they just don't work as they should and sometimes they just don't work at all. Like, am I using them wrong or what?

So, you want the PC to be someone else? If so, that's easy. Just open the "MyChar" file(which is found in the data folder) with your pixel art editor or whatever(e.g. paint.net) and replace the sprites. Also, I recommend using Booster's Lab for modding. It's the most advanced one and it will...

I was wondering what the "Tileset Width" setting in "Edit Project Config Settings" did in Booster's Lab. Does anybody know?

Hmm, did you use the main character's sprites in other ""sprite sets"" other than mychar, by any chance? Also, my bad for saying the top left of the screen implying that I was referring to the game itself.

Hmm, it doesn't seem to be that random. Those are normally entities used to hold an event in the original Cave Story. Did you put the sprite of the PC in the spot where there should be nothing? That is, the top left of screen?
