LesserRaven Posted February 12, 2004 Share Posted February 12, 2004 I couldn't get ANY of the DOS programs to work on my Windows XP. However, Hack-o-Matic does work. The trouble is that I can't distinguish any of the sprites, they just look like random black and white dots to me. How can I find the particular sprite I want to edit?

StanJr Posted February 12, 2004 Share Posted February 12, 2004 MOST games appear in hack-o-matic with the sprite maps at the BOTTOM of the code, and often upside down. When you pull up a game in HOM, scroll down to the bottom of the code and start looking for things you recognize, if they are upside down, HOM features a FLIP option that will flip the entire code. If you FLIP the code, the sprites will then be at the TOP of the file and right side up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
