[Kou]

What version are these codes for?

 

[Achilles1515]

What is the difference between using

E2000001 80008000

as a terminator for these codes rather than

E0000000 80008000
(which I used in my last code. I saw it used in an example of ending an IF statement so I tried it and it worked)

I guess I don't fully understand how to use an endif or how it actually works....can you explain?
Also, from the Gecko codetype webpage, what does this mean in words?

If XXXX<>0

(btw, I plan on watching your videos later tonight)

 

[ResidentWaffle]

Kou All version 1.2.

Achilles: Not too sure about the difference. I'm still kinda new to gecko as I used to write most of my codes for AR. Also if you wanna learn anything about coding from my stream I havent done any writing from scratch on it so wait till I write my 8 char name-tag codes. I'll try to do the entire code writing from start to finish on stream.

Just discovered 12-char and 16 char nametags

streaming right now.

 

[Achilles1515]

This is totally awesome. Nice work! Looking forward to trying this out.

 

[Doq]

Theoretically one could have an endless length nametag. My longest one is 20-something characters "This is my nametag"

 

[ResidentWaffle]

Looks like you could have one that is as long as all the name tags slots, but im not sure. Still trying to do this in-game through the name entry menu, but I don't understand it well enough yet(which seems like the most I can get is 12). Also, you said you made one named "This is my nametag." Nametag creation seems buggy for me after 12 char. How did you do it? Did you just modify the name tag slots in memory?

 

[Wooggle]

I know its been a while, but has there been any progress on this recently?

 

[Cyjorg]

IE has a really sexy 8 character, upper and lower case code. It's in the Gecko Codes guide and discussion thread under extended name entry

 

[Achilles1515]

Once you go over 8 letters, it starts affecting the rumble controller flag for that name tag.

 

[Starreaver1]

Not sure if this is the right place to post this (I didn't want to clog up the Gecko thread), but does anyone know how the characters in the name entry screen are visually loaded into the name entry slots? I'm also wondering if it'd be possible to modify IE's code to accept up to 8 symbols/Japanese characters, without exceeding 8 total characters? Could be a lot of work but I haven't been able to figure out much regarding that.

8 character names use a quirk in the letters to use 1 byte characters instead of 2. Japanese characters do not have this quirk

 

[Starreaver1]

I meant, without exceeding 8 characters in the name entry (for purposes of not clogging up the screen with letters). So a max of 16 bytes for a nametag, but only a max of 8 characters. I've read the thread about bigger nametags. I know that a 16 byte nametag would interfere with the rumble flags in vanilla Melee but I've already changed where the game looks at and stores that flag so that wouldn't be a problem.
This is probably way more trouble than its worth but I liked having the 16-byte nametags that the 20xx pack enabled us to make (at the same time I also love how user-friendly IE's code is).

After 8 bytes, the Rumble settings starts to freak

Not if you change the location of the rumble flag.

[Starreaver1]

A few things: I found RAM locations that affect certain aspects of the name entry screen (for example, I can make the letters from IE's code centered a bit more in the name entry box), but I'm still having a lot of issues. Such as this (from IE's extended name entry code)

It happens when I enter a letter, then a 2 byte symbol. I don't know why this happens. I'm wondering if anyone would like to help me pursue this problem as well as making the extended name entry code cleaner and more compatible with 2 byte characters.
