You've got 2 of the same topic?!
Make it yourself, and DON'T DOUBLE-TOPIC AGAIN.

And I thought they double-posted heaps...now they double-topic as well...
This site is really on a downhill slide. Well, actually, I would go so far to say that it's dropped off a cliff...

More like a mass-banning tool, which bans anyone who joined in the last month.

No i just think we need to put all these noobs through some kind of boot camp to whoop their asses into shape. And when every new member joins their is a series of training events they have to go through before they can post on the forums. Now that would be sweet.

Programming hex

Post by xsnowmanx »

Can someone direct me to a good place to learn how to edit hex from visual basic or using c++? I'm trying to learn how to create my own programs so that I can easily edit some things. First I want to create a program that will just make sure that the hex name of the map is the same as the saved name of the map. aka bloodgulch on the third line in hex if the map is saved as bloodgulch.map

xsnowmanx-
If you want to use c++ Xhzjang has some source code you might find useful and informative.

For visual basic look at the source code for Halo Map Tools. Use the search to find it.

ok, i've got almost the whole program written, I only have one obstacle left, i believe. if the name in hex is boardingaction, and I want to change it to chillout, how do I null out the extra characters that would be left after I put chillout over boardingaction? right now the program writes it as chilloutaction.
