Hi everyone,

I tried to edit NDS maps. It's easy to add or remove some buildings, but I can't edit the "base" of the map. In SDSME, we can export the 3D Model and then edit it in Sketchup, but is there a way to "remove" this 3D model with hex-editing only ? For example, can I put some grass everywhere instead of sand, trees, etc. ?

I think I am dreaming, but why not ? :p

The tool is still in development. He is not complete.
Oui oui je suis français. Je ne pense pas que le tool puisse t'aider pour ce que tu demandes mais si tu t'intéresses au hacking DS, tu devrais surveiller l'avancement du dévellopement du tool

It's possible check out this thread but I warn you it's not fully updated yet. I can gurantee any map editing works for any game and importing is easier than it is then. The only thing we can't perfect is animations in the newer 5th roms but in HGSS it still runs 7 animated tiles making you put more effort into making the maps.
