I can make Tables and Edit Text and all that, but I need to know how to program spaces in a .tbl file

"6F= " doesn't seem to be working
^ space

BTW, I'm using Thingy

Hmm...That should work, I think. Do you have any values after 6F? Like,

6E=0
6F=
70=A

I think if it's the last entry it might cause some issues. I'm not sure, though. I haven't used Thingy in a long while.

Yeah, there's not values after it. Also, when I'm looking at the hex, the spaces are represented by white #'s and athe value is 5F, so should I use 5F for my space (even though there are many blank spaces that could be used as a space)?

Thanks

The #'s that you are seeing represent the hex values in the rom that do not have a value in your table. If you're seeing a # between all the words, and its hex value is alway 5F, then, yes, 5F would be your space.

Alright, man I got it. I just put one of the other values after it, and it worked.

Thans a bunch.

Just a suggestion, and I know you've got it working and everything, but Thingy is old, is buggy, and is generally garbage by today's standards. Not that it wasn't great for its time, but...

Check out the documents section at http://stealth.romhack.net/Stealth Translations.</A> Bongo` maintains two full-featured hex editors: WindHex32 and WindHex32EX. They're basically the same program, but with differing user interfaces - the standard version is small and floating, a more compact deal, while the EX version is full-screen and feels more like a "big" hex editor. I personally prefer the smaller floating version, but regardless WindHex is your best bet for a better hex editor these days :)

Good luck in your endeavors!

Seconded. I can't recommend WindHex enough.
