Niahak one thing that would help with the battle layout (and the map editor) would be to make the tool screen size larger. It's pretty small on any computer with at least decent resolution.
make sure it also comes with a cupcake dispenser and a soda holder :finger:
ugh no dice with expanding the rom to allow more battles without taking away my new tactics and lvl up system and my new gear
For the battle list, just put something like this:
Code:(01) Battle: Dick CheneyAnd for the individual officers:
Code:(01) Dick Cheney vCode:(02) FF3 Kekfa vCode:(03) Vlad Impaler v…I may have gotten sliiiiiiiightly off-topic here. If so, I apologize.
EDIT: You'd think the board would accept multiple non-breaking spaces so I could line up the down-triangles properly, but…
Yeah, I've got the officer stuff in place. No parentheses since I didn't want to take up room, so it's something like
6a-Lu Bu
7c-Li Ru
etc. That should fix any issues with uniqueness in those lists causing auto-selection to bork.
For battles the modification should be the same – fairly easy.
Also, I would definitely play a DoaE where you fight that trio in a battle. That would have to be one hell of a story.
Unless you're changing the width of the officer dialogs, the parentheses are fine and look nicer; there's lots of room, even for Cheng Y Uan Zhi.
Now, if Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar* or Juan Carlos Alfonso VÃctor MarÃa de Borbón y Borbón-Dos Sicilias** make an appearance with their name completely untruncated, THEN parentheses may be an issue. Somehow, I don't see that happening. XD

Question, why does DOAEditor have two sprites of the same thing and some cases of only one? IE: two Liu Bei's but only one old man (hat)?
Quote:Question, why does DOAEditor have two sprites of the same thing and some cases of only one? IE: two Liu Bei's but only one old man (hat)?Appears to be an artifact of how sprite table population worked. DoaEd started off populating the list from the ROM itself – using a table to look up names – then eventually loaded it directly from the table as well. It was doing both, so the same name would pop up twice for any used sprite. I just fixed it to only use the table.
So will we still get duplicate names appearing in DOAEditor? Now that we have updated the sprites list, there are a lot more names popping up (82 more than the original) so is there any way that the duplicates can be eliminated and perhaps the list populated alphabetically or numerically?
There will not be duplicate names appearing in DOAEditor, but now the only names loaded will be directly from the .tbl file. The rest will have some placeholder with just a hex-byte representation.
If you can provide a .tbl file with the new hex values/names, I can integrate that with the editor.
Cool. Currently I do not have new names for the new sprites, just some perfunctory names like Chubby Bubby and Mr. Shell Hat so that I can recognize who is who w/out the pictures. If they can't be alphabetized, maybe they can be named w/ a numerical value in front ie: 04 Liu Bei 05 Liu Bei2? Anyways, here is the problem w/ including a modified table… if people don't use the IPS patch, they wont have the new sprites and thus won't be using this modified table, so its up to you if you want to include it. Maybe we should just offer a table on the Romhacking/IPS page for people to patch it themselves if they use the modified table?

Yeah, I was thinking of only displaying the 'new' sprites when using an expanded ROM.
Well, for now it should handle things fine – you just won't have certain names :)
I've posted an alpha version of DoaEditor with Taunt/Closer editing. It should all be in decent shape, but I've only actually tested a couple battles… so standard backup recommendations apply.
Its like a birthday present every time we get a new release, fyi, it actually is mine tomorrow, so it came a day early this year :lol:
Issue #1, you only included the battle taunts already in game. In my mod already I have cleared up 16 additional lines from townspeople that are not being used and I cannot select them to put in more customized taunts.
SO far, I do like how battles and officers are labeled by hex, and nicely done, you fixed the switch between maps/battles x,y values :P
Set up looks good too for the battle screen now, I like it
Awesome. Happy birthday (a day early).

I don't want the battle selection menu to include every single line from the game – so I use only taunts that are currently in place.
I can switch it up to load from a table file or something – or have an "add taunt" button that lets you add a line to the list of taunts/closers. But I really don't want people to have to choose from 700+ lines for taunts.
double posted >_<
