[Sonic 1] How to make SonED2 support both GHZ tile binaries

Disclaimer. This guide works with SonED2 projects originally made by Quickman. If you have plans to adding dynamic tilesets, then you NEED to apply the following guide by MKaMeX!

Some of you may stucked the problem, when you try to edit Green Hill Zone, the main window will be like this:

Spoiler

Then you applied this guide, and you had no problems. But I invented a muuuch easier way to solve it. Okay, let's go!

Step One. Open GHZ project file(ghz1.sep, ghz2.sep, ghz3.sep) in any text editor. It should be like this:

Spoiler

Type: 1

Zone ID: 0
Act ID: 0

Object Def: objdefs1obj

8x8 Tiles: ..artnem8x8ghz.bin

16x16 Tiles: ..map16ghz.bin

256x256 Tiles: ..map256ghz.bin

FG Layout: ..levelsghz1.bin
BG Layout: ..levelsghzbg.bin

Objects: ..objposghz1.bin

Palettes-

Number of files: 2

Palette 1-

Start index: 0
Number of entries: 16
File: ..palletsonic.bin

Palette 2-

Start index: 16
Number of entries: 48
File: ..palletghz.bin

Angle Array: ..collideanglemap.bin
Collision Array: ..collidecarray_n.bin
Rotated Collision Array: ..collidecarray_r.bin

Collision Index 1: ..collideghz.bin

-EOF-

Step Two. Look at this line:


8x8 Tiles: ..artnem8x8ghz.bin

and these lines:


Palettes-

Number of files: 2

Palette 1-

Start index: 0
Number of entries: 16
File: ..palletsonic.bin

Palette 2-

Start index: 16
Number of entries: 48
File: ..palletghz.bin

Did you get the idea? We edit 8x8 tile load code to get something similar to palette load code.

Step Three. Change this:

Spoiler

8x8 Tiles: ..artnem8x8ghz.bin

To this:

Spoiler

8x8 Tiles-

Number of files: 2

Tile 1-

File: ..artnem8x8ghz1.bin

Tile 2-

File: ..artnem8x8ghz2.bin

And we get it. Do it with each GHZ projects.

Step Four. Let's check our new project files in action. Open project in SonED2 again, and you will see...

...normal Green Hill! Presto!! If you met a new bug after this guide, feel free to comment.

P.S. I heavily apologize if this topic was made without grammar. If so, sorry.

EDIT: guideline added to the disclaimer

 

This should have been done when SonED2 was first updated to support multiple art files. Somebody should probably update the project files available for download so that this guide isn't necessary though.
