Works on nybble 8 = 1

but in the editor how to distinguish the fly guy from splumpkin?

Check their nybble 8. :}

skawo you are a great

Should thank mero for the latest development more.

skawo thanks for this ASM code

Bit too quick, as it crashed on actual console.

Fixed now.

I did not understand how it fits into the code hack (I'm still a beginner with asm hack)

Rename it to ShyGuy.s and place in the /source folder. Then build like any other.

How do you use this code for other sprites? Or ain't it that simple?

You find where they load their models and write appropriate code.

Would it be easy to add size-increasing code to this, so many enemies could have a nybble/value that makes their model/sprite and collision bigger?

Perhaps.

Er.. Could you tell me/us how?

You do realize this will be different for every enemy? Not exactly explainable in a tutorial

I wouldn't know. I've no experience with this.

But I assume the method how to find where they load their models is the same for each enemy. So you could make a tutorial how to find that and how to write the appropriate code

Sure. Here it is;

1. Open up IDA.
2. Find where enemy's code is (a lot is documented)
3. Investigate the functions there. Locate the one that uses the loadFileByExtId_3dModel function. See what File Id is loaded into register 0. Compare with editor. If the address is within the main or overlay 10, copy the address of that line of code in IDA, if not, find out that line of code's address in the game via No$GBA.
4. repl hook to that address and write appropriate code; check spritedata, write different file ID if spritedata is set, if not, write the standard one. Return to LR.

Thanks, I'll try heh heh

I entered the code in my hack, but I do not know what to do to put the fly guy in a level
