I see the PumpkinPie (or whatever) Cythera patch, but how do you make your own? I think the Harry and Cythera graphics are stored in resources, and you need something special to edit them. Not totally sure about all of this though.

I didn't know you could even edit it.

(God) Please, please, don't make such assumptions without even bothering to look in the resource fork in ResEdit first. If you'd tried, you'd: a. find out that Magpie has no resource and b. find that none of Cythera's graphics are stored in resouces. Magpie has no support whatsoever for non-Glenn made stuff.

In other words are you requesting a topic lock Talos?

just was stating I wanted to know how Magpie worked, and how to make patches with it. I was totally unclearhow the whole thing worked.

It's not possible for anyone but Glenn Andreas to make worthwhile Magpie patches, unless you bang on your keyboard while using a hex editor and get really lucky(think 1:1x10^10,000).

I don't like resedit, it really really scares me and I have no real use for it.
As for patches?
Glenn created Magpie Pumpkin Patch, as for Talos, his is just some altered cursers(i think)
and Tycho Maudd's is just a couple opened up menus.


All with resedit though... (don't worry you're not alone being totally clueless)
