[APP] Map Name editor

Post by -DeToX- »

Sorry about my first app (resigner) i made up for it with this, after i learnt more VB from reading tutorials. Check for yourself in a decompiler, none of this code is stolen, all hand written.
You need .net framework 2.0 to run it.
It bassically changes the Header to add to mainmenu, and it can change the Internal Map Name, Ex: When you open a map, itll say Lockout, you can change that. I have tested this on 3 Different maps and it has worked. Resigns old maps only :wink:
(Sorry bout the quick post, i gtg to bed soon)
My second app, thank you. I learned most of this on my own, i only learnt how to use a Binary reader, i didnt know it was like the same as a binary writer, other than that, i figured this all out on my own :D
Thanks to Trigger_6 for getting me started.

Hmm, better than a resigner, but I see no use for it. I've never had to change any internal names to get them to load on the mainmenu.

Good job on learning VB though.

Thanks about that, its my first day learning VB. :wink:
PS: ScottyGEE's Biohazard had the Internal Map name changed so no one can steal the map also :wink: Plus he just wanted it that way :? lol Unless he did it by mistake :)

Nice job, and its only your first DAY!
I see potential in you :wink:
PS: I may have a little thing thats an Unknown in the IFP tag for you to make a APP out of.
(Just like Shade did the BSP scenery mover, that was a unknown at the time)

Wow, you can write a couple of bytes to a map... Congrats... And you should'nt have to resign after changing the header.

This is pretty good for a second app, I know fuck all about coding and programming.

On a different note, what happened to that shader colour editor app thingy, I can't find it anywhere?!

Good job with the app, but please don't say learnt, I'm pretty sure the word you are looking for is learned.

Again good job with learning vb.
