Nameless Tile Map Editor [NTME]



Version Info: (Alpha 2)
Comparison

• Alpha 1
  4BPP TileMap Loaded (FR WorldMap)
  8BPP TileMap Loaded (R WorldMap)
  
• Alpha 2
  4BPP TileMap Loaded (FR WorldMap)
  8BPP TileMap Loaded (R WorldMap)

As you can see, it's much faster..
Layout was slightly edited..
Added shifting function.. (Heh.. I needed it for the FR Version Logo tile map )

Version Info: (Alpha 1)
This is the first alpha of my Tile Map Editor.
If you want to know, yes.. the name is just temporary!
NTME was once "Hurricane Prototype", the editor Darthatron is/was working on.
He gave me the source, which included the basic 4BPP loading (without flip support).
The source was a great help to me, as I now learned how to use BitBlt & StretchBlt
Therefore I like to thank Darthatron. Make sure you check out his tile map editor when it comes out!

I release this alpha because I need to know what people like to see added..
AND, to be honest, I need testers ().. As I don't have the time to test myself.
Actually.. I only tested the editor itself, I never imported an edited tile map..

Todo:

• Palette-Mapper..? (Like Movement Persmissions in AdvanceMap)
  
• Probbaly solve some/a lot of bugs!
  
• Listen to your suggestions!

Bugs:

• REPORT ANYTHING YOU FIND

One thing i always hatet on cyclone is,that theres no copy&paste T_T
So it would be nice if ypur editor could have that.

What do you mean?
If you right click a tile on the tilemap, that tile gets selected..

Original von Milanor
Oh and, it would be better too if you make a better cursor or atleast use a zoom for the tilemap and tileset field.

Zoom function will be included in the next release

The only thing i dont figured out at the moment is that "add x bytes t othe end" thingy
Btw. why dont you call your editor Tilemap Editor instead of Nameless Tilemap Editor xD?

Darthatron included that.. And I left it there
It's for.. like.. I'll ask him :lol: But what it does is add a number of bytes to the end of the tilemap, to increase the size..

Btw, for the name.. you can send suggestions through PM

yeah, simple TME would be cool as name
Btw, I think Milanor is right with the cursor. You know Darthatron's Hurricane Prototype, so you may know the cursor there.
He once gave me the tool for testing purposes, one thing I loved about it was the cursor.
I didn't test your tool yet (I'll use it soon, though...) so I dunno if you made the same cursor. But if not, maybe you could make it similar to the one from hurricane

Ah.. Darthatron didn't include the cursor when he sent me the source.. Maybe I'll make my own cursor

Well i gues you didnt understand what i mean... ->
Mapping huge titelscreens are a pain in the ...
Thats why i want a MASS Selecting copy&paste.
Example: theres a tree, 4x4 tiles and you want to map that tree on the
whole length of the map screen, thats gona be a lot of work and time :s

That too is a planned feature
Might not be in the next release, but it certainly will be included in some release

Little bugfix - download in first post!
