KeymasterIs there another way to get the portraits bmp's in? If I knew the hard code way I would have this done by now with the time I've put into this stupid ass program lol.
I got php with feidian.php in the same folder. And the rom in the same folder. And the bmp's in the same folder. And nes8 in the tiles folder.
Then I open up php and type this in…
php feidian.php -ci nes8,6,128,00040810 destiny2.bmp huohuunov1.nes
So I go check the hex and that didn't do shit…nothing is changed within that hex.

ModeratorYou're not the first to have problems with it but it works perfectly for me (sorry).
When it works it should provide some output. Ie…here's what a good run looks like:

ModeratorLets tone down the language lol. If LYS is like me, it makes about 20 pages of errors :/

KeymasterYea, I'm not too optimistic about this, we'll see.
What did you do to hand change the portraits? Like getting in DoaE 2 ones? All I want is like 5-10 doae 2 portraits on here…

ModeratorI just copied some pictures, changed colors and hand drew in details/shading etc that get messed up when changing from 16 bit -> 4 bit pictures. Seems midknight has the magic touch with importing them.

ModeratorTile layer pro works fine for me. *shrugs*
Just keep in mind that it depends on the palette order, NOT the actual colors.

ModeratorMaybe I should upload my whole Php directory :)
Of course it's got all kinds of other junk in it. So hopefully you guys don't mind. Will upload it shortly.

ModeratorHere ya go:

This is my Php folder where feidian works 100%. You also get some bonus junk in there too like portraits, sprites, mods, etc… :)

Keymasterlol, this is so lame, I type in the address and hit enter and get nothing every time.
Quote:c:Program Files (x86)PHPphp feidian.php -ci nes8,6,128,0×040810 d23.bmp huohuunov1.nesI put the nes8_1.php file in the tiles folder of PHP. Is that right?

ModeratorYes, nes8.php in the tiles folder. You should just download my folder and try that.

KeymasterWell I downloaded your PHP folder and opened up php.exe. Typed in the correct address but still nothing after I hit enter.
Is it my rom because I expanded it via Niahak's way (I'm reading in the other thread that there is code left out in certain areas)? I just don't know what else it could be unless I'm getting the address wrong but I don't think so.

ModeratorI don't think it's your ROM if it's 512k. Feidian will load the portrain in no matter what is there.
You could always send me your ROM and bitmap and I can load it for you. I may have to start charging for this service :P

KeymasterIs this Php compatible with Windows 7? Just not sure what's wrong, I type it in exactly as you say and it does nothing so that leads me to believe something isn't configured properly.

ModeratorMaybe this could be a feature of DoaEd?
I mean, sure, I'd have to do something tricky to absorb "any" BMP file and make sure it only has 4 colors, but I'm sure it's something that I could pull off if there's the demand for it.

Sure, after you do warps, battles, and all the other stuff in the ROM hacking guide… :P
But seriously, I don't see why you'd have to limit it to 4 colors if it's tricky. Feidian doesn't stop you from loading a bad bitmap.
