Call text Help

Subject: Call text Help Thu Sep 30, 2010 1:08 am

i juz found the text address... n if im not wrong the hex of it must have two 0's hex(00) between each character

for eg.
4C4C4548 -->"HELL" in normal imposter

it became this in MOHH2 for Call text
00450048
004c004c

so how should i change the characters from a name imposter to Call text?

Okay, I have never really worked with text in this game (But I know what to do) but I looked at the code I told you about to get exactly what you are supposed to do, first thing you want to do is make the next pop up on the screen. To do that use this:

Code:: #Call Text DragonZero
;MJKT For Call Text
;Value's by DragonZero
0x01401DEC 0x00720044
0x01401DF0 0x00670061
0x01401DF4 0x006E006F
0x01401DF8 0x0065005A
0x01401DFC 0x006F0072

Make sure to give credits to the makers if you use them and release them.

Now you might want to change the location and the size of the next, here is an example of that:

Code:: #Call Text Control
;L + Dpad Left = Text Go Left
;L + Dpad Right = Text Go Right
;L + Dpad Up = Text Go Up
;L + Dpad Down = Text Go Down
;L + Triangle = Text Becomes Bigger
;L + Cross = Text Become Smaller
;Control The Whole Text

Look at the code in the decoder, I hope you can figure out what is the size, x axis, and y axis of the text. Try editing the code to find out. Check the controller address and button values against the branches in the code to find out where the things are.

ya i found that when you told me that time

This print "DragonZero" text on screen

Code:: #Call Text DragonZero
;MJKT For Call Text
;Value's by DragonZero
0x01401DEC 0x00720044
0x01401DF0 0x00670061
0x01401DF4 0x006E006F
0x01401DF8 0x0065005A
0x01401DFC 0x006F0072

but a player name is

Code:: #"DragonZero" name
;srry no offense
0xXXXXXXX 0x67617244
0xXXXXXXX 0x655A6E6F
0xXXXXXXX 0x00006F72

"D" is 44 in hex, "r" is 72 in hex, "a" is 61 in hex...
for Call Text code there is a 00 hex between each character

so how can i transfer for a player name to Call text?
im quite blurred right now...

sorry im a slow learner Surprised

Store the names to the values of the call text addresses. The enemy pointer has a name offset at 0x4C8 I think it is (Log it to make sure) so you can increase the enemy pointer by 0x4 each time you press a button and it will display the next enemy's name. Now, what if you go to far and you log an enemy that doesn't exist? Well make a check in your subroutine to see if the enemy is in the game. (Using the pointers for an enemy that is not in the game might freeze you) Here is how:

Check to see if enemy is in game:

Code:: Lui t0 $XXXX // Upper enemy pointer
Lw t0 $XXXX(t0) // Lower enemy pointer
Beq t0 zero $XXXXXXXX // If pointer = 0 go to jr ra or where ever
Nop
// Then if the pointer = 0 that means that is the last enemy in the game so
// You will not want to reset the enemy pointer to
// Enemy one.
