SETedit v3.75 editing Station Square Act 3

SETedit is a utility for editing object layouts in the PC version of Sonic Adventure DX: Director's Cut. It was written by MainMemory in Visual Basic .NET. It requires the .NET Framework 3.5 to run.

Features

  • Uses INI files for customizable object names and misc properties. Objects without misc property settings will display "Unknown/Unused".
  • New BAMS formula using 65536/360 instead of 182 (more accurate).
  • Get Position: Grabs your current position from a running copy of SADX.
  • Get Properties: Grabs your current position from a running copy of SADX and pastes it in the property fields. Use for Rockets and Dash Hoops.
  • Load Level: Forces the game to load the level being edited. You must be in a level for this to work.
  • Teleport to this object: Takes the current object's position and moves you there with a customizable x, y, and z offset.

Preview Window

  • Press Up or Down in the camera boxes to change the value by 1.
  • Press Pageup or Pagedown in the camera boxes to change the value by 100 (1 screen).
  • View box allows you to choose a top-down view or one of two side views.
  • Clip Distance: objects farther away from the camera than this won't be drawn.
  • Refocus: Moves the camera to the currently selected object. Automatically happens when switching objects.
  • The currently selected object will have a yellow box around it.
  • Some objects have images that display in their place. These are: Ring, Spring, Spikes, Checkpoint, Item Box, Capsule.
  • The Rocket, Dash Hoop and Falling Spikeball will show their path with a green line.
