Before you start: please note that this only changes the exterior of your house. The inside will stay the same size as a house. So you could have a fully expanded house that looks like a tent from the outside! magic tent haha
But Anyway: You'd have to edit the coding using a program like HxD Hex Editor
From there on it depends on which character's house you're trying to turn into a tent
Player 1 starts at
0X57E84,
Player 2 starts at
0x590ac
Player 3 starts at
0x5a2d4
I really don't know how to explain it because I'm pretty new to this myself so I don't know the terminology. But I'll try to explain it for
Player 1 (your mayor) -- you have to edit both addresses for the changes to stick!
- 0x57e84 & 0x57e8D change the exterior size: I set this to 00
-
0x57e85 & 0x57e8E change the exterior shape: I set this to 00 as well
-
0x57e86 & 0x57e8F change the door shape: 00 again
-
0x57e87 & 0x57e90 change the exterior color: I set this to 01
-
0x57e88 & 0x57e91 change the roof color: I set this one to 01
-
0x57e89 & 0x57e92 change the door's color: I set this one to 01 as well
-
0x57e8a & 0x57e93 change the fence: I set this one to 00
- 0x57e8b & 0x57e94 change the pavement: This one I set to 01
-
0x57e8c & 0x57e95 change the mailbox: this one I kept at 0B
so the string should look like: 00 00 00 01 01 01 00 01 0B 00 00 00 01 01 01 00 01 0B
or like this:
