Stinky Test Engine (Editor)

I edited the remake rtw editor source and made the editor be able to edit the stinky test levels.

the red ones are like the time clocks that give you more time.

gimme gimme gimme i've wanted this for a while

Okay, but the editor is still in development, might have bugs and doesn't read all objects\tiles, haven't worked on this for a while.

I forgot to share the editor and it's open source!
this current version was written in blitzbasic, blitzplus\blitz3d.
I think it should be rewritten in blitzmax, it's more meant for 2d.

I gave it a try out of curiosity, but it's indeed rather buggy. Although it could have some use if you ever finish it.

The TOW prototype obviously has far less potential for custom levels than RTW, but its game logic does differ from TOW in a few ways, particularly when it comes to buttons. I'm sure that would allow for some interesting puzzles.

It's also surprising to learn that alarm clocks were originally going to make their debut in TOW rather than RTWC.

And as it turns out, their code also exists in the release version of TOW. It uses the same level format, so it can read levels you make with this editor as well. Alarm clocks still work there, too. The only difference is that they now use a white texture instead of the lava one, so they look just like the bonus coin placeholder models in the beta.

I will fix it and work on it as soon as someone on here helps me patch the game.

What do you mean? I thought you were able to get the game to work with my instructions.

Kilicool64 · Post by **Kilicool64** » Sun Apr 01, 2018 8:05 pm

Ah. Just had a look at your most recent posts and learned that you forgot how it works.

First, you need to download this: http://www.mediafire.com/file/n6tzelndr ... kytest.zip
Put the executable from there in the game's directory. It's a far more recent version of the Blitz3D wrapper that still works on modern systems. You don't need the rest.

Though the new wrapper will need fmod.dll, you can find a better version of it here: http://www.dlldump.com/dllfiles/F/fmod.dll
You should also save it in the game's directory. Some people tend to put DLLs somewhere in their Windows directory, but while that should also work, it's apparently quite dangerous, so I'd advise against that.

Then you need a resource hacker. Personally, I went with this one: http://angusj.com/resourcehacker/#download
Use it to extract the content of RCDATA from the game's original executable. Its name is 1111. Then insert it into the one you downloaded.

Now that the game's code has been inserted into a new wrapper, it should work without problems.

It said this after patch Can't Set gfx mode error.

Kilicool64 · Post by **Kilicool64** » Mon Apr 02, 2018 8:46 am

That's strange. Don't think I ever got that error message.

Let's make sure you patched the game correctly. The MD5 checksum of my patched executable is 9E79F838BB9C3E5B7240EDF54F634A7C.

If you don't know how to determine MD5 checksums, use this program: http://www.mediafire.com/file/c27llq4v7 ... hecker.zip

I put in a code some hack posted so It would be in windowed screen.

Cyndanera · Post by **Cyndanera** » Mon Apr 02, 2018 10:10 am

well, the editor reads the objects\tiles correctly now from the level.

This is an old thread, I'm just coming back out of curiosity. Why has Stinky Test been referred to as TOW/ the TOW prototype, or rather, what does TOW stand for?

rainbowmon · Post by **rainbowmon** » Sun May 24, 2020 10:51 pm

TOW stands for The Original Wonderland. It's the first game in the series.

Cyndanera · Post by **Cyndanera** » Mon May 25, 2020 7:37 pm

nvm wrong topic

WonderlandFan · Post by **WonderlandFan** » Mon May 25, 2020 8:46 pm

i see

Cyndanera · Post by **Cyndanera** » Mon May 25, 2020 8:50 pm

I might update the editor.

WonderlandFan · Post by **WonderlandFan** » Sun May 31, 2020 7:54 am

I'd love to see the results! Stinky Test offers a unique gaming experience, and I'd love to have it opened for editing & custom levels

WonderlandFan · Post by **WonderlandFan** » Sun May 31, 2020 7:59 am

Say, is there some modification that can be made on Stinky Test proper that would make it interact better with the editor? E.g. changing hotkeys, password, and level slots?

Doesn’t the current version already have tiles?
