Completed Joints of Truth

[Punkline]

This code reveals all hidden JObjs (Joint Objects) in the game by disabling the functionality of the vanilla JOBJ_HIDDEN flag used in their structures.

Hold + and press Down to turn it off; or Up to turn it back on. The effect is on by default.


This was originally just a silly afterthought, but after seeing it work I thought it might be useful for reversing in some niche ways. Many processes in the game use this flag when temporarily removing visible objects in a scene, so you can use this to see hidden assets in many cases:
