Prime World Editor v1.2.3

One minor nitpick: you should have the size right-aligned, other than that it looks great :3

The current UI is kinda-placeholder since I want to have thumbnails at some point (although it may be a while)... that's why sorting is on a combo box instead of by clicking the columns of the table. But I fixed it anyway :P

Ah yeah, when I wrote my pakviewer I had everything in a table widget with a sorting model, never got around to adding thumbnails, though I wanted to add them. Though thanks for taking my advice, bet it looks 10x better now :3

Mine also had a search feature, like yours.

How do I change the "Memo Type" in Corruption?

Aruki

No idea, it's probably one of the unknown properties? Try changing them and figuring out what they do. Let us know if you figure it out so we can update the repo templates.

speaking of that

also the Z and Start buttons actually can be used for other things (like changing visors for example) but only if you pause/go to map first then hold z or start to unpause/close map. the action will be taken after the menu fully goes away.

dunno, with Corruption and DKCR I've always just set up Dolphin to load from the extracted directory.

I wouldn't mind doing that except Corruption runs at a craptastic average 4% speed.
To do any sort of testing i need to get it back onto my wii.

I know with Prime 1 using GCR i can import the repacked pak directly to the image which is on a USB drive. Saves a ton of time not rebuilding the whole image because with USB I just switched the drive back and forth.

i was hoping (but not really expecting) for a similar method, even if i have to completely rebuild and transfer each time. still faster than running it on Dolphin

Oh well. thanks anyway

There probably is one, I've just never used it.

You'll also want to extract the dol and the apploader which are separate menu buttons.

i found the apploader, but where's the dol file?

Aruki

2016-07-30 06:34:43 pm

If you right click the root directory in the Dolphin filesystem tab there's an "Extract Dol" button.

ahhh, i wasn't clicking the disc image, i was clicking the name lol thanks

Edit: Is docking/undocking the render window something planned anytime soon by chance? Resizing is extra annoying knowing i have 2 monitors to use.

Actually, it'd be nice to be able to separate the tabs too, to see Modify and Instances at the same time.
If not it's cool. I can just switch tabs with the keyboard. Not trying to be picky/impatient. I'll be happy with whatever whenever lol

I'm likely not gonna be making substantial UI changes to the world editor for a while short of making it functional with the new project interface.

Quote from Parax:

Yeah I know about that, it's a caching problem. The last area you loaded stays in memory until you load a new one, and since PWE sees there's already an area in memory with the same ID, it pulls up the old one instead of loading the new one. Need it to be clearing the cache every time you switch areas/worlds, but until that is implemented you need to load a different area/world with a different ID before you load a new version of the same one.

I've been meaning to ask: was this issue ever fixed? I've been just closing PWE instead of switching to a different ID area/world because it's a good bit faster. Closing PWE does clear the cache doesn't it? I guess it doesn't matter if it's been fixed already.

ah, cool. glad i was still being cautious, though i do keep clean backups anyway so even if i hadn't, no big deal. Unless I accidentally use a backup. Again -_-

Aruki

2016-07-31 01:24:11 pm

You prolly won't be using backups by accident in the future, lol. The way you open levels for editing and the way the editor keeps track of the game data is going to be completely different in the next release.

Well, getting it onto my Wii is gonna be annoying. My 2 thumbdrives won't read in either Wii USB port. One of them won't even read on the computer anymore. There's some micro SD "trickery" to do, but in the meantime it does work in dolphin, so I at least know it rebuilt fine ^_^

Sorry for the random bump, I downloaded the editor to try it out, but it says that I'm missing an msdvr file? I tried re-downloaded visual c++, I think that's what I need? But still nothing. :/ Yeah, I know nothing about this sort of stuff, but I'd love to.

Aruki

2016-08-22 01:39:30 pm

You probably need the VS2013 Visual C++ Redistributable Package. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=40784

I downloaded those three times...I have no idea why it won't open. It also said 'cannot run' and 000000 something when I tried again, then the same msdvr missing error. :/
I'd be blissful if I could get on it.

I'd love to add more enemies etc, to a room, does this sound possible at the moment? :D Thanks for the hard work by the way.

Not easily in the current build but will be substantially easier in the next one.

Can you take a screenshot of the exact error message you're getting? Also what OS are you running?
