[PSX/PC] Shop Editor - White Chocobo (v0.7b)

[nfitc1]

did my kernel2.bin reading code help at all?

[Colonel Ramsay]

Very nice indeed and I have only just spotted this!

[titeguy3]

did my kernel2.bin reading code help at all?

Yes I've got the conversion from FFText to ASCII, and the handling of the F9 operator down, however I still need to implement LZS decryption before I can make things work properly. I think I'll do it the legit way and implement a Circular linked list to make things more elegant...

That definitely works better in C and variants. There are no pointers in BASIC (at least, not simple pointers) so linked lists are very difficult to make.

[Bosola]

• Added PSX SHOPMENU.MNU support! (WhiteChoco no longer prompts you for ff7.exe at startup)
  

Why was I not informed of this sooner!?

[davoker]

Be possible that you did it compatible with the PSX version of FF7 PAL Spanish? I can spend the file SHOPMEN.MNU this version if you want hehe

[DLPB_]

Yo, you reckon you can make a translation tool for the ff7.exe (not sure if I asked this before)?  For the other text that is in there?  Not for me....but just as a retranslation tool.  The exe is one of the only things which is missing, and there are  a lot of text in there.

Just a thought.  This is a good tool btw.

Limit manual dialogue
Status'
Battle arena menu
All other menu's

Some of the stuff in there...

I edited with a hex editor.

This is purely academic at this point but is the world map dialog (cid's dialog, cloud's buggy lines) in the exe ?

That's the only text missing from my full script of the game for FF7Voice.

[DLPB_]

See my retranslation thread in general.  It is in "mes" a file inside World_us.lgp, and inside that are also the world map place names.  They all have pointers at the start, so you will need to change those too.

Here is the dialogue I extracted (if you use it, then just give me a little credit as DLPB for getting it for you.  The bottom line is our retranslation):

I haven't tried it yet but can Makou Reactor change the text in the world map??

[DLPB_]

no, simce those changes occur in a completely different file, one which I have already edited.

[nikfrozty]

How did you edit the mes file in the world_us.lgp then?? Hex editing??

[DLPB_]

yes, a tedious process.  It took most time to get the pointers back correct.  All manually....

[Marc]

yes, a tedious process.  It took most time to get the pointers back correct.  All manually....

Thanks.

Do you still have a list of the pointers and to what text they refer to ?  It'd make the process of putting together that part of the program much easier.

[DLPB_]

No, sadly, but it is a very small and simple file...it wouldn't take very long at all for someone to create a program for it.  I may start looking into programming hex values in delphi...

[Marc]

don't worry about it then.

we'll cross that birdge when we get to it.

i wouldn't want someone to invest time in the project with the state its in now (aka not moving forward).

[Armorvil]

I'm in the process of modifying all the shops throughout the game, so I'll be sure to send you my whitechoco.cfg when I'm done

By the way, I have a little request, if I may. There is currently no way of extracting the changes I make inside White Choco, to easily patch a new ff7.exe with my changes. Same thing if I want to turn my mod into a psx-compatible one : I'd have to open shopmenu.mnu, and select the right articles for each shop again, and re-enter the new prices for all items. Needless to say, this is a huge pain (that I had to go through yesterday when I made the patch for my demo, since I had to create a patch from a clean ff7.exe, without the battle menu reconstruction mod etc).

Could an option (that would work the same as "save names", for example) be added, that would save the prices and the shop data in a separate file ? That would help a bunch in duplicating the data from one exe / mnu to another ^^
Whatever the response, I thank and congratulate you for such an awesome tool, anyway

EDIT:

You can download here a whitechoco.cfg referencing all shops if you like.

For a little mod I am doing, I would like to edit shops, but White Choco doesn't want to open any file. In fact, when I select "Open", White Choco shut itself down and a new file was created, WhiteChoco.exe.stackdump. Openend it with notepad and here's what I saw :

Any ideas?

EDIT : Found a workaround that works *sometimes* :

- You can try loading constantly and it would work, but boring.

- Open White Choco, then click File > Save Changes, go in Prices and go see some things like some items; now try to open a file, it should work. Anyways this worked for me.

Edit: I'm merging this into the general WhiteChoco thread. - Bosola

I'm having this exact problem. Has anyone figured out a permanent fix for this yet? Right now I can't get the editor to load up my file at all.

[Immortal Damyn]

So... I read somewhere there's a workaround for this for Win7 Machines, but I can't make it work, and I can't find any other solution. This Would be a nice program to run, but my Win7 Ultimate won't run it . Anyone got any ideas?

hmmm, Whitechoco doesn't seem to pick up on the new items and materia etc. that is created in a mod like LostWings. Is this because the kernel2 compatibility or whatever hasn't been integrated?

Seeing that his last update imdicates he's still struggling with LZS I'd have to say it never got implemented. Since he also wants comparability with PSX he'd have to add KERNEL.BIN support as well for PSX names and such.

Come to think of it, I don't remember the last time I saw titeguy...

[Lionsmane]

Ah gotchaa. Well that's a shame because he made a really interesting tool here!

[Raziel80]

Is it possible to make this program for the PSX PAL English version? or advise me, how it can be done?

[kukuta]

 the download link its broken  . Can someone put the shop editor for download? thx
