I did it all! [Archive] - ForumsHQ

Post by MrBlack »

A long, long time ago....

I used to use Hex Workshop to do all my editing, but now is a time of change, when any wannabe sysop can just download the game and bbs software, then download Nightmare and do whatever the #### they wanted to.

Back in the day, I used a SDK to add my custom items, monsters, rooms, races, etc.

Back in the day, I was known by everyone who even thought about editing their game. Now, nobody remembers me, after only a few months I am now completely obselete.

And this leads to this post...I am conceding to Nightmare, it is a much better program than Chronic, or MMEDIT, and is much faster than any sysop with Hex Workshop. Although it has some problems, and I have given many good ideas to Donut on changes that it really needs, I don't think that hexing will ever be what it once was.

And because of that, I do think that this will be the only post in this forum, only because nobody who edits their BBS even knows how to use a hex editor, let alone read hexcode.

Thank you for taking the time to read this, I will check back in a week to see if anyone has posted anything in this forum, and until posts and members become more numerous, I will not be checking here as much as I used to.

*Sigh*...i'm in the same crowd as MrBlack.

I've never used Chronic, MMEdit or Nightmare. Always been a straight "by-hand-hexer". Thats where the skill is baby

Amen, I agree with you. I was taught by MrBlack during many late nights :). I still prefer straight hand hexing. I'm still using hex workshop, works for me :). I just wanted to say thanks MrBlack

Hey, now...how many times do I have to tell you how to spell my name!

But I guess its ok, you weren't really one of my brighter students :P

Oh, and thanks for everything guys, if it wasn't for people like you, I would have never have become such a common place name in many boards ;)
