Corruption?

1 replies · 660 views · Started 09 August 2007

This is 254 (so sue me), but for all anyone knows, it could be a domino effect type thing, and be worse in the future.

Now, I was messing around with the subscreen even more (adding counters, mini-tiles, changing fonts, moving stuff). My quest survived TWO corruptions, and Zquest crashed many times (and no, I did not try selecting the things with (not implemented yet) next to them). I did have backups, as ZQuest would crash either right before saving the backup, or towards the few final stages of saving the regular file. but I fear my quest may be permanently corrupted (either that or I am overlooking something simple). Here is the problem: I have not touched the item editor since who knows when, because all I've been doing is messing with the Sub Screen editor. Yet, somehow, when acquiring the small shield, Link suddenly slashes (normal) with tiles of him in the water, or jumping with the feather (not normal).

Any help?

Ah christ. I have no idea; I suppose you should reset all items to defaults (by manually opening each item in the item editor and hitting the button), then import the quest in the latest build; a lot of these corruptions have hopefully been fixed in 254.
