ROM Hack Project: Isaac

[Kaleid]

So is this one Beta 2 or something?

The program version is 1.1.
Each editor has it's own version number.

I updated the main post to reflect this information.

 

[coczero]

i really like this programm more and more !

 

[imgod22222]

I fully endorse this and I approve the shit out of this nifty application.

 

[Kaleid]

Isaac updated to version 1.3.
Pandora updated to version 2.2.

Added Chrono Trigger (NDS).

 

[Kaleid]

Added The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past (GBA)

 

[Hebon]

Are these all different editors that you compiled, or did you create them all yourself? I've been looking for a Dawn of Souls editor. If they are, could you please post them as well?

 

[Kaleid]

I have converted Isaac to be a modular program. Each editor will be released as a separate plugin.
I chose this path as I saw the size of Isaac inflate with each game added. I quickly noticed the redundancy of downloading the entire file again just for one new game.

The original post has been updated to reflect any important changes. Remember that all plugins must be in the same directory as Isaac or he will not be able to read them.

Next game is Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow, which is about 50% done. Thanks for your support.

Also, in reply to Hebon's post above: All editors linked in the original post were created by myself.
All my editors also have an Information button in the upper-right corner that will give you information about the editor.

You know, that's a really awesome project. I like the idea with the plugins, as that way it'll be easier to update it. I wonder tho, do the editors work with every region or just US? (would it work with an EUR or GER save as well?)
Nevermind, just tried that and it does work.

 

[Hebon]

Quick question. I used the Dawn of Souls editor for FF1, and everything starts out great, but when I select characters 2-4, all their stats are messed up, and if I edit them, they glitch the name and stats of the character in the game. Any ideas as to what's wrong? I used VBA and VBA-M, still the same thing.

 

[Kaleid]

@ SignZ: Most of the time, USA and EUR regions use the exact same offsets. I don't test EUR games for compatibility unless someone tells me it doesn't work. Then I will figure out the difference.

@ Hebon: Yeah, that's quite embarrassing. I got it fixed and the new one is up. Basically, it was using the FF2 character skip for both games. /facepalm

If the editor is showing an error, it is most likely the editor's fault, not the save state.
When I converted all the editors to a plugin state, some bugs occurred. Damn bugs.

 

[Delirious17]

Is there a way to change the region of the save like FF6 USA to FF6 Europe?

 

[Kaleid]

Hey guys. Sorry about the lack of updates. I have been on vacation for the past couple weeks.

@ Delirious17: Are you saying the editor doesn't work with EUR versions of FF6?

 

[signz]

Well, it sure doesn't work with FF5 EUR, so maybe it doesn't with 4 and 6 neither.

 

[Kaleid]

Ok, I'll look for a EUR version of those games and get the editors fixed.

 

[Kaleid]

Final Fantasy IV Advance and Final Fantasy V Advance editors now support EUR region states.
Final Fantasy VI Advance editor didn't require any changes as it already supported EUR. I just updated it's information file.

Please let me know if any of the editors do not support EUR regions. It's very simple to implement. Really.
FF4 required four (4) additional bytes of code and FF5 required three (3) additional bytes of code.

I just finished (hopefully) a pretty big update to the program. Significant under-the-hood changes were made. The newest version of Isaac will not work with older version of the editors. Please download the latest version of any editor you are using.
Also, PluginInterface.dll was merged with Pandora, making the file obsolete. It is safe to delete it.

Changes:
Fixed: (NDS) Golden Sun: Dark Dawn
--- Psynergy is now saved correctly. Making a spell class-based now works correctly.

Added: (GBA) Final Fantasy VI Advance
--- Added a counter for the number of battles you have won with the Cursed Shield equipped.

New Game: (NDS) Dragon Quest IV: Chapters of the Chosen
Let me just say, this was the worst game I have ever played. It was literally physically painful to play it. I put as much as I could into the editor, which is quite a bit considering I didn't even make it past Chapter 1. If there is something in a later chapter that should be included, do let me know. I'll try to choke back the tears and play through.

All in all, it was a lot of stuff to update. Please let me know if any new bugs arise. Thanks.

 

[Kaleid]

Made a minor update. If any of the editors don't work, re-download them.

Added a beta version of Crystal Chronicles: Echoes of Time. There are only a couple things left to add but I would like some testing on it in the meantime.
I will be gone for the next couple days and won't be able to work on it.

About this game. Let's see, I don't think they could have made it any more difficult without actually encrypting it. It uses a mix of pointers and non-pointers for all the item IDs and some other stuff.
Party and Guild data is stored in separate locations as well as separate formats. There are already 1350 item slots available for editing and I am not even done yet.

Also, the EUR version uses a +20h offset for it's addresses. Because this game uses pointers, the ID of nearly every item is also offset by +20h.

Ugh.

A liiiitle late to the party but ... just noticed all links have been down for awhile, does anyone have some mirrors? (the only one I found was for version 1.3). Yes, I know this thread is close to 1 year old, but this project was interesting enough to warrant a new mirror so it won't be lost in the vast internet for ever =(
