Thanks goes out to: His Beta Testers - Shade45 for doing the 'extras' menu first and Prey only being able to follow by studying his output maps ..the Ch2r Source for having such a great bitmap library, and finally Talin for inadvertly leading him to previewing P8 bumps correctly.

 

 

 

Features

-Bitmap Relinker

-Able to create new raw for Bitmaps

-The ability to "Export" and "Import"

Hopefully you will find the app self-explanatory enough, there are a few things Prey would like to quickly go over though:

Bitmap Relinker

Every map slot holds an Ident which points to a bitmap tag, it is this bitmap tag that is the map slots preview image. The Bitmap Relinker will simply let you change the Bitmap the map slot is linked to.

 

Create New Raw For Bitmap

Every bitmap tag is linked to raw within the map, the raw is where the actual image is stored. All of the map slots in the mainmenu that are null, may have different bitmap tags, but those tags are all linked to the same raw. So change one and they all change. This function will generate new raw for the selected slot so it has its own individual image.

 

Export/Import

While the Ch2r Source does have a great bitmap library, it comes with many flaws in the extract/inject region. So Prey fiddled and twiddled with it for a little while until he got most of it working, here is a quick table which lists what extracts properly:

 

 

 

The empty cells mean Prey couldn't test for one reason or another, buts its probably safe to say that they dont extract proper either..

 

Duplicate/Delete

Allows you to add or take away map slots! Woo! Sadly it doesn't work though, ugh crap right? Not Prey's fault though, the app dups/dels perfectly fine, but the default.xbe holds it back and makes you freeze at 100%.. oh well, he'll leave the option their incase anyone ever finds a fix... With Update5 these options have been hidden as it has been figured out how to add more slots, and it had nothing to do with the xbe...thus his code is what's wrong. Oh well that's work for another day

 

Save All

Once the app has listed the SP Map slots, they are all stored in memory. Meaning you can edit everything about every listed slot before finally clicking the Save All button. The only way you will lose your changes, is if you dont save and click to view the MP Maps. Whenever you switch between SP and MP slots, the app clears its memory and loads the new slots. Just so you know.

 

Net Framework 2.0

..is needed, you can get it HERE.
