The Zone Title Card window

Sonic 1 - Text Code Generator (or simply S1TCG) is a text editing tool, which generates normal ASCII characters to Zone and Credits Title Card Sprite mappings for Sonic 1 Split Disassemblies (Hivebrain June 2005 version only). It was created by Selbi and was written in Visual Basic 2008, which requires .NET Framework v2.0 or better (v3.0 is recommended). The latest version of the tool (v2.5) is also aviable to do Level Select Text (though it's just a temporary solution yet).

Note: You should download .NET Framework v3.0 Runtimes (though you can also use v2.0) to use this program.

Prior Versions

Tools and help windows

Version 2.5 of the utility contains (or at least partially) the following generating tools and help windows:

  • Zone Title Cards text generator
  • Credits Title Cards text generator (Beta)
  • Level Select Text generator (Temporary solution)
  • "SONIC TEAM PRESENTS" generator
  • Level Select Text editor (for directly editing the misc\menutext.bin)
  • Header generating tool (the thing your emulator shows)
  • Tutorial help window
  • Help window on how to change the Zone Title Card format (as it's different in this tool)
  • Credits window (Don't be confused by all the SSRG stuff there. This tool was originally made for SSRG.)

The help windows are there as a replacement for a readme.txt.

Planned features

The next releases will contain these new windows and optimized features:

  • Optimized Credits tool (making creating credits much more handy)
  • A feature so Titel Cards are not off-centre
  • Bugfixes, optimized optic and more stuff
