Graphical glitches on overworld map while walking
01-30-2012, 10:13 PM
Oh look, another thread from the new guy...
Anyway, when walking around the world map (only the world map) I get weird graphical glitches. It's only for a single frame but it's every step and really distracting:
Any ideas what causes this/how to fix it?

You must have changed a byte somewhere, what were you playing with?

The only things I've done so far is:
-expanded rom to 32MB with FF3usME
-changes to overworld map
-some sprite modification (none to palettes)
-applied vanish/doom, evade, and rippler fix patches
-changed a few items in shops
-disabled the veldt trait on all tiles that had it
I haven't messed around with script/hex editing at all yet because I know that I don't know what I'm doing there, haha
Edit: looks like deleting exits on the world map is what's causing it.

Did you by any chance saved your work in usME twice in a row? If you did, there's a bug that corrupts your rom.

I assume you mean saving when no changes were made twice? I haven't run into that bug yet, but it's good to know about it.
It's definitely related to removing exits from the map, though. I took a fresh copy and moved all the exits I didn't need/want into a corner, no problems.
Now I'm just having problems since it doesn't seem to like the first digit in exit numbers and changes it back to 0 every time (so Coliseum [19D] gets changed to WoB Mobliz [09D])

Yes that's a bug as well with the LE. You cannot place an exit to any map after map #100. You can do this however with the other level editor by Sleepydude.
We are born, live, die and then do the same thing over again.

That's an alternative but for some obscure reason I can't run that editor on my PC...I wonder if anyone else has that problem ?

You can change the exits by hex editing too. If you're unable to change them with the other editor, I could show you how to change them manually...

I'm familiar with hex editing (I've done things with other games before) I'm just trying to learn what I can and can't accomplish without doing it, since it is a bit of a pain.

I can't run sleepydude's editor that's why sometimes I have to change an exit manually (like I did it for my WOB Colosseum). It's a bit of a pain because you have to calculate where exactly is your exit in the ROM, even if you know where the exit data is.
I also use editors for a lot of changes, such as monster stats, graphics and AI but sometime the only tool available is an hex editor, especially when it comes to event editing/creation or assembly hacking.
