      **Well, cicn's? maybe colr's... ok so thats not gonna happen. Problem for me is Res Edit crashes (and being OS 8.6 takes the system with it) whenever I try to change the colour in the cicn resource, dunno why but it does. If I use Iconographer or similiar my computer crashes when I try to change colour. Somethings wrong with my computer.:p I think I'll put that in there for the next major update (not early this week 😉 ). Because my editors are EVN specific, I think I need to gear it more towards EV Nova TC's, so I think I will start working on the basics- cölr, chär, röid, bööm... The basics. 😉 That will be my next project.

    • All righty... I finished up a few hours early, so here you all go...

      (url="http://"http://www.evula.org/infernostudios/downloads/SpaceShip2.sit")SpaceShip Beta 2!(/url)

      SpaceShip Beta 2 boasts SpaceDust, a fully featured weapon editor. This was put in for two reasons: First, there are no other weapon editors out there, besides NovaTools. Second, Ships and Weapons go hand in hand in the game, and you really can't have one without the other. 😉

      Take a quick glance at the readme, and as usual, all comments and criticizms are greatly appreciated.

      Thanks for testing!

    • Hmm... here's something that could use changing. On the Flags tab, the section for jumping has the normal 4 options (Slow, Medium, Fast, No Slowing). These are all checkboxes, which could allow 2 of the flags to be checked off. Instead, maybe change to Jump Speed popup menu (75%, 100%, 125%, 150%), and leave the No Slowing checkbox.

      Great job on the weapon editor. A good choice since it targets an area not yet properly adressed by MC or EVONE. I don't like templates, even the EVONE ones, the just don't seem to do the job for me. Good idea too, putting in a Weapon Editor, an Outfit editor would be a logical second or third choice too.

      Why EVONE works fine on 8.6, so why wouldn't those resources work? Is it 8.6 that is stopping my Iconographer, and cicn resources?
      How strange, it doesn't work for OS 9 either...

      It does?!? Excellent, then forget my comment about it not working 🙂

      As for the TMPLs, yes, they are, by definition, a last resort. But I feel that EVONE does a relatively good job with them for the resources that I have not gotten to with real editors yet.

      Must you insist on reading my mind? 😛

      The outfit editor is indeed next, and it should not be hard to do at all. 🙂 Also, I'm going to add in copy and paste support for pictures, which I think is desperately needed.

      Please folks, give any suggestions, any little nuance that you wish could be changed. The more harsh you are in your criticisms, the better this program is in the long run...

      Thanks!

    • If you're doing this in REALbasic (as the automatic scientification of large numbers suggests), you can solve that problem by replacing the line equivalent to

      theField.Text = Str(theVariable)
      

      with

      theField.Text = Format(theVariable,"-0")

    • Hrm... I'd filled it in with format(a, "###########"), assuming an DLNG field will not be able to be larger than 40 billion. However, it is useful to know of the "-0", I'll replace that in the update.

      Also, I finished up with complete copy and paste support for pictures, which was desperately needed. I'll have an outfit editor out by the end of the week, and then I'll start on cölr likely.

      Sorry, a long is +/- 2 billion. An unsigned long is 4 billion 🙂 🙂
