nightmare-minus

Nightmare- is an Electron-based rebuild of the ROM Hacking/Editing Tool for Windows. (In case you don't know your electrochemistry, e- is the general symbol for an electron.) I mostly just wanted some experience with Electron and React. (And make a ROM where all your main characters except Ninian/Nils are archers.) As a bonus, I've included that ROM here. (See notes for warnings)

Installation

Should work with just the Make file. Haven't figured out how to do this on Windows yet. Once you run make, it will generate a folder called Electron Minus. This folder houses the root folder of the project, in my case, nightmare-minus-linux-x64. This folder contains the standalone app, with an executable is called nightmare-minus.

Basic Usage (UI stuff)

  • To open a ROM, hit Open ROM.... This opens a dialog window with which you can select your ROM file.
  • The open file will then be displayed on the display line.
  • To open a module file, hit Open Module. Both the original .NMM and its equivalent converted JSON formats are accepted.
  • You can have multiple modules open. Select the one you want with the dropdown menu.
  • To close a module, hit Close Module.
  • To convert an open .NMM file to JSON, hit Convert NMM to JSON. (My own feature)
  • To write a ROM, hit Save ROM As.... This is the only way to make changes to a ROM. Until you save, the values are only stored in memory.
  • Status bar is there to tell you what went wrong. (My own feature)
