YI Customiser (version 0.1)

ToolYoshi's Island

This is something that I have been working on for the past two weeks or so. The intention is for this to be like the SMW Customizer but for YI, allowing the user to make a variety of tweaks. Python 3 is required for this program.

The aim is for this (in version 1.0) to contain everything in the Tweak Map, which I have been moderating. It's currently in Version 0.1 so only contains a relatively small number of tweaks but it will be updated throughout C3. Let me know if you have any things that you would like to be added to this or any bugs/feedback.

The download link is here for version 0.1.
I'll try this tool. Check my thread for a patch that's a bit similar, but different.
Very convenient tool for those wanting to make just simple little changes to their hack without needing to actually delve into all the specifics themselves.
Weird, it seems to not run for me (unless I'm doing something wrong). I have python 3 already installed, BYTE works fine but this doesn't seem to work. Error I got.

All I can suggest is updating Tk. As far as I know, ttk was only introduced in version 8.5.
I can't use the customiser with my current rom it gives me this error:

Your file isn't a Yoshi's Island (V1.0) (U) rom file.

And then it closes itself.
I have got the issue where I can't use it too. I just open the ROM and YI Customiser closes itself instantly. No warning message or the like.
A very nice initiative. Yoshi Island is in need for new tools and that one opens a very good potential for customizing the enemies. Consider also implementing part of the Tweaker features which is more specialized into sprites.

I tried opening your tool myself. Apparently it does not like the *.sfc file extension, it threats like "not 1.0 YI ROM". Consider adding a different treatment for each different "wrongROM" situation (the file extension is not valid, the ROM has the wrong size or title, the YI appears to be 1.1 instead of 1.0, etc.); the more you detail an error on a tool, the better is to the user know what happened.

However, for some reason after renaming for .smc, the GUI appears for a split second and the program is closed. Nothing is output on the console. My Python version is 3.6.0 running on Windows 10.

Does it give this exact message?

"This file does not appear to be a Yoshi's Island (V1.0) (U) ROM. Do you want to continue?"

If so, selecting Yes should work.

If the tool closes immediately, for now you should open it in IDLE and run it from there. I will look into this issue, but for now that should work.
Yeah, it was giving that message. But then I changed the file extension to .smc and that message no longer appeared. Yet the GUI disappeared immediately.

How am I supposed to run in IDLE mode, by the way?

I have gotten it to work in IDLE. The first thing you do is to open it in IDLE (either within IDLE or through "Open With...") and then go to Run > Run Module or press F5. That should open YI Customiser properly (although there is a warning that an unexpected error occurs if you close the tool without selecting a ROM but that is nothing major).
Ah, that's IDLE. Yup, got it working here as well now.
Got the same warning as MFG though.

I made the tool work with IDLE. How does the menu look like in YI Customizer 0.1?
What sort of things does it edit? Level names? Maximum eggs?

Also, there's a YI tweak map? That's the first I've heard of it...

As someone who's been using the SMW Customizer for a while and experiencing how useful it is, I'm glad that a similar tool can be used for the YI-hacking scene. Even if's still in early development, I'm sure this'll have great use in this community.
Thanks- BTD6_maker- for this tool, and good work on making this. #smw{:TUP:}

Same, actually. It would be very helpful for new people to the thread if the list of what's customizable is posted in the first post.

Right now it's mostly a boss HP editor but with any luck it will become much more robust in the future.
