Garrulous Glaahk Little Fyora Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 This program simulates most of the floor and terrain of Geneforge 5, and can be used to precisely identify the row and column locations to, say, insert a new character or object. It's based on the research conducted by Ishad Nha, Tridash and all others who contributed to the BoG wiki. Download here : BoG Zone Simulator.exe (Note : This version is outdated, see below for version 2!) Courtesy : CalRef for the file hosting. References : How it all Began and Blades of Geneforge Wiki To use the program, place it in the same folder as Geneforge 5.exe. Right-click on a floor or terrain(wall) for detailed information and left-click or use the arrow keys to move around. This is a beta version so suggestions are welcome, as are ideas for future improvements! Upon Mars. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unflappable Drayk Indignus Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 Awwwwwweeeeesssssooooooooooommmeeeee!!! I didn't know you guys were in a super ultra nice project. If you ever need a beta tester, be sure to P.M. me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrulous Glaahk Little Fyora Posted April 3, 2014 Author Share Posted April 3, 2014 Beta testers are welcome! Btw there's an anomaly I can't quite figure out - according to GF5Floorster, floor 0 is 'plain grass' but the game represents the 0's stored in aGF5ScenData's floor-section as 'plain snow'.

Unflappable Drayk Indignus Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 ty, I'll try it out today, and I'll update this post if I sense (claw)bugs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall Ishad Nha Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 (edited) It is working beautifully indeed! GF5 is not as simple as BoA, it is really something else. If Little Fyora is having headaches, that is par for the course. Strange, some terrain types like trees varied with the floor type on the square. Changing the town floorsets also changed certain terrain types. Edited April 4, 2014 by Ishad Nha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrulous Glaahk Little Fyora Posted April 4, 2014 Author Share Posted April 4, 2014 (edited) In the console, the commands terrain_visible(0) and floor_visible(0) can be used to hide the terrain or floors. Using 1 will make them visible again. Floorsets and Wallsets - ouch. I'm sure G1 didn't have those, did it. Change one little byte and watch the world transform into a wholly new environment. Rather convenient, though. What's unfortunate is that I assumed that floor 0 would always be snow, and didn't take the floorsets into account.

Unflappable Drayk Indignus Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 I don't know if I'm wrong or I didn't understand the OP, but it's all snow Anyway, a great start for a BoG, keep it up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall Ishad Nha Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 (edited) I had that problem too, I was not following the instructions, which disappear when you press OK. I made a screenshot of them for my own use. Press C to open the console. Type loadzone(#) # is from 1 to 82 inclusive. LF's new program must be in the same folder as Geneforge 5.exe Edited April 5, 2014 by Ishad Nha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well-Actually War Trall Ishad Nha Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 (edited) It is possible to do it here and now. But it would not be convenient like the BoA Editors. You would need to alter things with a spreadsheet. Then you would need to copy and paste the result into a scenario data file. Little Fyora's latest program would then show you what the changes looked like. Here is a list of the GF5 shops, some shops use the same shop number but at different prices. Two shops have the same inventory but are enemies. I compiled the list using the Crimson Editor's Find in Files function. To make it work properly I had to alter the town dialog scripts involved, for example: begin_shop_mode("Bryony's Inn", "Bryony sells a variety of simple, tasty meals and beverages.", 38,4,0); Excess tab stops and Enters were removed to produce: begin_shop_mode("Bryony's Inn","Bryony sells a variety of simple, tasty meals and beverages.",38,4,0); ---------- Find in Files ---------- > Searching for the string 'begin_shop_mode'...

Well-Actually War Trall Ishad Nha Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 I have uploaded a new and improved version of the spreadsheet, see the link in the post above, but I expect that the future lies with a G5 conversion of the Delicious Drayk program.

Garrulous Glaahk Little Fyora Posted May 2, 2014 Author Share Posted May 2, 2014 Yes the G5 conversion should be quite simple I think. I've modified the Zone Simulator so you can right-click a floor or terrain, and put in diferent one. The problem's that I didn't take the floorsets into account, so all the user can see is floorset 0 for all zones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrulous Glaahk Little Fyora Posted July 22, 2014 Author Share Posted July 22, 2014 Here's the second version of Zone Simulator, it can change the walls and floors of the game.

Seasoned Roamer Thynar Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Nice! I noticed that the program shows "Floor" and "Terrain" but I don't think Terrain is visible, what are things like Chairs and Doors saved as? Also.. are the number of zones hardcoded?

Well-Actually War Trall Ishad Nha Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 BoA has floor and terrain while Geneforge has floor, terrain and object. (Check the gf5... Scripts in the scripts folder.) I think it is possible to alter the number of zones but I have never done so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrulous Glaahk Little Fyora Posted July 25, 2014 Author Share Posted July 25, 2014 @Thynar I'm not sure whether Chairs come under 'terrain' or 'objects' but iirc it's an object. All stuff that can be interacted with (like doors, levers etc) are 'objects'. Big and movement-blocking props like walls, trees and rocks come under 'terrain'. @Ishad But I remember you saying something about where the bytes denoting number_of_zones are located...at the start of the file someplace ?

Well-Actually War Trall Ishad Nha Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 (edited) It should be offset 106, but I have never attempted to add additional towns myself... Then you might want to give a new town its own record in the header of the scenario data file. Edited July 26, 2014 by Ishad Nha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall alhoon Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 (edited) I wI have been told that the links are not working for everyone, so I upload my copy of the zone simulator. I was not the one that made it, this great honor goes to the original poster. I also include an "Empty" zone for those that want to create their own. That's my only contribution to this. So, here's the link: https://www.file-upload.com/q6bj9uwxdfqb And here's an alternative link (That will be open till 15/6/2017): https://ufile.io/y4b6m And a third and final link: https://gamefront.online/files/30000760/G5Editor.rar Edited May 16, 2017 by alhoon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrulous Glaahk TheKian Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 For anyone who just wants to mess around with the zones, I have extracted the town data binaries for all 81 zones. You can download it here. (just be careful and use AdBlock) alhoon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrulous Glaahk TheKian Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 Lo and behold, O ye gracious people of the modding persuasion, for I have provided thee with a pile of information most useful: a complete list of the floor and terrain ID values, and the related spritesheet and tile for most of them. https://www.dropbox.com/s/ouzz5lj4xcpzf1e/Terrain %26 Floor Values.txt?dl=0 alhoon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall alhoon Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 And by "complete list" TheKian means "short description" as in "floor with water on left side and natural ground on the right side" not just "floor". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall alhoon Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 (edited) Meh, my links are becoming dead too. Can someone upload it somewhere else? Somewhere permanent? Also: TheKian: could you do the same with the binaries for GF4? GF5 and GF4 zones are of the same size. If you have a program that slices them that is, I'm not asking to just go and start chopping the file yourself.

Fledgling Fyora gosho Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 Hi alhoon thanks for your great job!! Can you up load the blade of geneforge editor? Does it work with geneforge 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrulous Glaahk TheKian Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 Geneforge 1 appears to have a different zone format, and so would not be compatible with this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you up load the blade of geneforge editor? Does it work with geneforge 1 Sorry for the delayed answer. I can't upload the files from here but perhaps theKian can. However, as mentioned it doesn't work for geneforge 1. Also, to be clear, the map editor allows you to make actual changes in the zone (or even add zones) not cosmetic effects. I.e. the map editor would allow you to add a new building in a map, not make building walls brighter or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, technically you can change the tileset data for the wall color and you could potentially make it look brighter (like with the photonegative effect in some zones in the games). alhoon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall alhoon Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 Yeah, but can be done anyway with manipulating the datasets from the txt and image files Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
