Looks good.  I'll download tomorrow and play with it and a Seasons ROM.

Just curious, will there be any compatibility issues with this and a ZOLE 4 edited ROM?  Obviously the editing functionality hasn't been added yet so you may not be sure, but based on your plans at least.

You can't edit anything, only view. This isn't meant to be a functional release, but rather to get feedback on the layout and the way things work.

I'll have an option to import maps from ZOLE 4 modified ROMs, but that's it. Because of the different system I'll be using for interactions and a slight change with scripts, the rest will have to be ported manually.

Looks like a good tool. I tried it out and everything loads great. Looking forward to a full release of this.

Version 0.00! I like that! :D I'm looking forward to using the new editor! Keep up the good work Lin!  :thumbup:

So is version 0.00 an alpha version, or even earlier than that? (What could be earlier than alpha, anyway?  :confused1:)

Right.  Well, hopefully I'll finish Return to Koholint fairly quickly so I don't have to use "old" software to finish my hack.  I haven't done a lot of the interactions or scripting yet though so if a usable release is finished before then and the systems work better for me, I might attempt to switch over.

If the mapping will import correctly, I may start mapping on a Seasons hack I have been thinking about since I bought Seasons and just wait for ZOHS to work on the rest...
