No, This is actually not spam.

Overworld Editor - Rebirth Edition [Sebbe's Remix]​

If any one has my msn, they might remember about 8'th month ago, I was hacking Xeons Overworld editor, and doing some stuff with it, I lost the source. Then I gave Haxmew's a try, but well... Lost the source. I never quitted the projekt though, I just putted it on hold. I totally forgot about until I checked my Ipod and found several versions of the tool...

So let me try to blow some life into it!

Updates from Hackmew's version:​

• Colour Editor - You can edit the colours of the palette
  
• Shows a hell lot of imporrtent offsets - You'll never again have to yell: "where the heck is the Groundon Sprite's secondary sprite header located in the ROM", While overworld editing!
  
• Reads from pointier tabel of offsets - So now you can edit all the sprites, in the correct order, you can edit sprites you added yourself!
  
• Size Editing - You can edit the size of the sprite + it'll fix the stupid size pointiers for you.
  
• Repointing - Pointier tabel, Sprites, All lot of crap
  
• Adding Sprites - You can add intirely new OW's.
  
• Smexy Looking - It'll Smexier!
  
• Let's you edit a lot more/A few other toch-up's - Well, If this is a plus or not, Hackmews were freindly even to the first-day-hacker, and had a lot limits, and stuff, I tryed keeping these limits, as advices, but the stuff is now editable. So the tool is for the bit better hacker. There's also ONLY Expertmode now. So stuff like Frame limits, Preffered palettes is removed, but still in the tools as advices.
  
• Graphical function(s) - Stuff like flipping the sprite. Would that be handy, or just pointless? Let me hear you!
• -! I never got to this area last time, so this'll be new to me !-
  
• Zip Im/Exporting Sprites - Would that be handy, or just pointless? Let me hear you!
  
• Your idea - Suggest what you could use

Since I just started at a new school, I don't have a lot of spare time, but I'll try to keep updating as often as possible.

I have a lot of these things done, but the old code I wrote is not too perfekt, so I'll have to rewrite a lot of stuff... Some where in November seems as good release date(-:

This is actually a good idea, kudos!
I have a question, will it support the Hacked Engine OW sprite + palette hack? Because I really don't know if I should use it or not :P

Also, a suggestion, or a question if it has been done already... Can you repoint the sprite/palette tables with it?

Just what I was thinking. Could you make it compatible?

 

[SharpPoint]

This looks too good to be true. :P

Looking forward to the release.

lol that was what I am thinking if this woks without crashing the rom this will become my thired favorite rom hacking program. I cant wait to try it out :D :D XD

 

[sky_queen3]

This sounds awesome. :D

• Colour Editor - You can edit the colours of the palette
  
• Size Editing - You can edit the size of the sprite + it'll fix the stupid size pointiers for you.
• Adding Sprites - You can add intirely new OW's.
•

These fetures will make me very happy. (Now I can make a Mew Truck overworld that's it's true colours. :D)

 

[Mr. Frog]

Wow all these features sound amazing!
Best of luck with this.

 

[OM3GA Umbr30n]

Graphic Function(s) would be awsome!
some people are to laizly at spriting to do more than 2 frames (ME!)

 

[Lyzo]

I can't wait till it's done! All these functions would be very usefull!
I hope the adding sprites and changing pallettes will be compatable with Jpan's Hacked Fire Red engine, I'm using it :P. If you do make it compatable with the Hacked Engine, will you mabye also add a function that adds pallette's? Since that's possible in the Hacked Engine.

Hi there. about the Hacked Engine, I'm not intirely sure how the OW part works in that, But I Supose he just moved around a few bytes to incrase the Palette amount, if that's the case I'll make support Jpan's hack.
(Anyway, I'll look at it, since I think Jpan's hack is awesome)
So my current answer is yes, But I'll have to look into it before promissing anything!
@|+~Umbreon~+|: Well I been spriting the same way, but my quostien is, if anyone actually sprites in the OWE, and not just in Paint, and then Import them?
Edit: @Cooley: Yes, about the palette, you'll might have to enter the amount palettes, but Repointing is humanright!

I would like to see it, since many people( me T.T ) can't edit the ini xD
and the minisprites thing is one of the most used in the engine

it's really good man!
overworld editor has always been one of my favorites, now with that things would be awesome =D

i have some questions , the Size Editing feature can edit all the frames without errors?
Because many people and me, when we ry to increase the size of OW the other frames get kinda messed ( some sprites parts around the image)

The tool will suport all roms lie ruby,emerald,firered,leafgreen,etc
or it will only support certain rom at the beggining?

I will really like the possibility of add a new pallete to the rom
for example, the rom has ..let's say 8 usable minisprites palletes, I would like this tool could add more, or that comes with the colour editor

I hope you could take time to read this, kept up the good work man, it's really, really nice!!!

 

[giradialkia]

Colour editor?
This is
S
E
X.
Exactly the type of tool I need- I never actually edit the sprites in OWE (I do it in Photoshop), but I never like to click "Import Palette", because it always, always mucks up several other sprites. Don't get me wrong, I understand why it happens, but it's still annoying.
So yes, great idea, excellent tool. (I'm BEGGING YOU to release it :D).

 

[Neo-Wolf]

Wow! This is really awesome. Can't wait for the release. :)

 

[hi sir tomato my password is syvniti]

OMG!!??!¨
Did you guys see the spoilers for OP 563? Whitebeard seems to be the bad guy!!?!:shocked:!!?!:shocked:!!?!:shocked:!!?!:shocked:!!?!:shocked:!!?!:shocked:!!?!:shocked:!!?!:shocked:
Or was is just a lie by the marines? I don't trust that admiral..

Off topic: the OWE will support Jpan's version. Beside that Progess is moving slowly forwerd.

 

[Aberbecam]

NOW FOR THE IMPORTENT PART, OP 563 IS OUT... ONLY SOME STUPID RUSIAN SCANLATION SO FAR, BUT ANY IT LOOKS EPIC!!!!
Btw, the imgbox thing is crap here at pc.

 

[Tropical Sunlight]

So far so good!
I hope you'll make all the features that are on the first post available!

 

[NarutoActor]

the layot looks very cramped you should increase the weith and add some border to the boxs with some color. like I said I cant wait ...

oh and I keep geting lost are you talking about one peice?

 

[hi sir tomato my password is syvniti]

I haven't decided yet about the Graphical function(s) and Zip Im/Exporting Sprites, If I please could get some more views on these.

Else, would anybody be happy with a beta/ealier release without those two?

About the release data, I have nearly no time to hack/program currently (Hell lot of homewórk), I still plan to get the full version out somehow in november though, but forgive me if I fail.

BTW, YES IT'S ONE PIECE, WHAT ELSE WOULD IT BE?!?!?
Wow, I just love the first page, where everyone's reaction to WB's Death is shown. Try title the page "Their reaction to the new Era!" I'm SOOO pumped to see WB do something... It's sad that the WG,(Akainu) was able to make doubt between the NW captains(Squado, but also the ones who asked if it was true...

 

[sky_queen3]

Does the edit pallete colours function stay in the beta?
