(true story), I finally got all the equipment to capture and upload to my shark from my laptop, load it up, it WORKS, but didn't tape. Turn it off, go to try again...30 tries later, no go. Think I busted the shark's parallel port capability. Videos coming when new shark comes.

OK - I went to create an IPS patch with the editor and when I chose the file (the rom file itself) I got "Error - NOT Goldeneye ROM"

For whatever reason this software isn't recognizing my rom as a valid rom.

I should note that I have no idea exactly what version of the rom I have as I have renamed it since the time I downloaded it several years ago. Its english - I know that much. It is a .v64 file.

[SubDrag]

It only checks the size of the ROM (both ROMs being used).

if (results.st_size != 0xC00000)
{
MessageBox("Not Goldeneye ROM", "Error");
return;
}

Yours must be the wrong size. Check it in the hex editor! Truncate.

[bmw]

You lost me there.

I opened it up in the Hex editor.

Last address - 00FFFFFF
Size - 16,777 k

So what exactly do I have to do?

[SubDrag]

Delete up to spot 0xC00000. (0 - 0xBFFFFF keep). It should only be that size, yours is too large. That data at the end is probably all FFs or is wrapped around or something from beginning. Or download a new copy somewhere heh.

Size should be 12 Meg (12, 228 KB in windows).

That worked ok, I managed to create and apply an IPS patch.

Now what is the bare minimum I'm gonna need for testing purposes? I have 4 presets - 3 objects and a spawn point. That is all I put in right now.

Then when I run the game, how do I load the level in solo mode? (it is the library and I see no menu item for it)

[SubDrag]

You're going to need GS codes to actually load it, well we could make you a patch, but for now just do it via gs codes. What did you replace? You'll want to replace a solo mission with setup, then use the gs codes to force the solo mission to load library stuff.

Bare minimum btw is 1 preset, and starting point. That's it. Don't need action blocks, paths, objectives, path presets, objects, just 1 preset, and the intro block. I think that's all you actually need but haven't tested beyond that (intro block might need one or two things).

Say force the level to for example, Silo, now overwrite the USetupsiloZ.bin or whatever it's called in ROM with the library mission, now GS codes.
8002A8F7 0014
810444AA 8AC0
810444AE 8AD4
This should load library instead of Silo.

Just tested, it works delightfully (replacing UsetupsiloZ.bin with Ump_setupameZ.bin in ROM)

Be sure to name your Library file the same name as the stage you're planning to replace. When it is forced to read that stage ID, it'll load in the correct setup file. I'd suggest using the largest of all the setups, since you won't need to worry about size constraints. The Jungle is by far the biggest. Simply name your Library setup "UsetupjunZ.bin" and replace it in ROM. Use these cheating device codes to redirect the files accordingly.

Select any stage from the Mission menu.
Try it out and post back with your results.

Hey, the Goldneye Setup Editor was in the Gamers News section in tonights episode of Good Game, an Australian gaming show on ABC2.
They mentioned how to find it "Search for Goldenye Setup Editor in your favourite Search Engine" and some pictures and talked about it.
Too bad I was too excited/suprised to take in what they were saying.

http://www.abc.net.au/tv/goodgame/video/

Go there you can download/watch the latest episode.
It's the first thing mentioned in Gamers News, which is pretty much straight after the intro.

[Wreck]

That is so badass!
I always knew I loved Australia.
Huge thanks to you, D.J. Cat, for reporting it to them.
Can't wait to hear from SubDrag and Zoinkity when they see this.
I am so saving that video to my hard drive...

Holy carp is that true!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Checking it out IMMEDIATELY.

WOW AWESOME!!!!!!!! Even got pictures from it!! Although it looks like they only grabbed shots from the web site, shame they didn't show any level pictures, those are the sweetest.

[bmw]

I found what I THINK is a bug in the editor.

In the advanced presets, if I enter data into the X-Y-Z Min/Max boxes that I extracted from a savestate, the editor re-expands that data when it writes it to the final setup file and it shouldn't do this (it is trying to expand already expanded data).

For example, library - If I enter C0B9 AA01 as the X-Min, it turns into C10C A795. I verified this by comparing the two savestates - the one which I extracted my data from and the one which I saved from the modified rom with my new setup. I then reverse-expanded C10C A795 and it turned back into C0B9 AA01.

This is affecting the X-min, X-max, y-min, y-max, z-min, z-max. The end result is that my objects are too large in size.

I'm not sure if this makes any sense or not, if it doesn't, let me know and I'll try to re-explain it. My best guess is that when I check the "Presets Expanded?" box and enter data, it is only being applied to the basic preset components but not to the extra components associated with the advanced presets.

Not a problem.
Just doing my bit to spread the word.
I was/could post the threads of the forums I've posted it at but no.
All reactions have been postive.
If yous are intested I can post them.

Here is the news report from Good Game:

Awesome! Yeah thanks again for sending to them, first time we've ever been on tv, and it's very sweet! And can you link to the setup editor in that youtube video?

Can you email me a copy of the video?


Ah shoot, that is a bug, and sounds hideously massive. GAH. Long story short, I can't fix it right just now due to not having the source code, but here's the simple solution albeit a tad tedious (I very much apologize, and will try to get it fixed as soon as I can):

Wait, max/min are expanded in-game? OK, that's the problem...never realized that...I thought they were never expanded. OK, I am very sorry you are going to have to do this, but you'll need to open windows calculator, using tools of Editor, input floating point value, copy decimal to calculator, divide (I think divide, forget, maybe it's multiply, do the one that works) by scale, then put back into data convertor to convert back to hex. I will get it fixed AS soon as I can.
