Real-Time Game Tweaker

I can't seem to get this to work.

Code:
tleilaxughola@caladan:~/Programs/CASTER/MoMTweaker-0.3.4-Linux$ ./MoMTweaker.sh
./MoMTweaker.sh: line 1: 21936 Segmentation fault      bin/MoMTweaker


I really just want it to be able to edit CoM 5.26 save game files for now. I am not sure if there is anything I need to do as far as installing the ILSe editor goes, my impression is that it is precompiled, so it's just extract and go. I am running CoM 5.26 in dosbox, but I also tried it with the base MoM just to see if that would work. 

here is what I am using now;

tleilaxughola@caladan:~/Programs/CASTER/MoMTweaker-0.3.4-Linux$ lsb_release -idrc
Distributor ID: Debian
Description: Debian GNU/Linux 8.11 (jessie)
Release: 8.11
Codename: jessie
tleilaxughola@caladan:~/Programs/CASTER/MoMTweaker-0.3.4-Linux$ uname -a
Linux caladan 3.16.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.16.51-3 (2017-12-13) x86_64 GNU/Linux


It is more than possible I am completely missing something here, so any help would be welcomed greatly. So far I can't even get ILSE editor to even run. (Some step by step "Instructions for Dummies" in the .tar would be super helpful)

I can boot into Debian 'Buster', but I kind of prefer the 'stable' jessie release version because it boots from the SSD and not the slower platter drives I have my other linux distros set up on.

Hey Serena, great program, congratulations.

I have experimented a "bug" using the program. I´m playing on Caster of Magic 6.0 and i tried to edit a lake/sea map tile. While it changes and you can see it as a new terrain, it keeps being not possible to move with land units as if it was yet lake/sea. Ive tried changing all the parameters but nothing works. Are you aware of this bug? is there a way to prevent it? Thanks!

Movement is not controlled by the tile types. There are 6 separate maps that describe their movement costs with various movement types. These maps are not available when you use the tweaker to "Connect" to a running game, as they are stored in expanded memory, which is not trivial to find in the DOSBox address space. To alter these tables, you need to "Load" a saved game instead, which you can then "Save" back after making the changes. I admit I haven't tried this in CoM, but it works just fine with the regular MoM versions.

AH ok, thanks, will try it this way!

Ok, tried your solution and didn´t work on the first time. I changed the 6 tiles and nothing. But then i exit the program, not just the game, and worked!

Hello there.

Is it possible to use Real-Time Game Tweaker with new version of the game, "Master of Magic - Caster of Magic for Windows" from Steam? Current version of tweaker (0.3.2) can't connect to game process.

It's a completely new game. It'll require a new editor.

Hello, everybody.
You are doing a great thing here. Much appreciated.

I am trying to figure out how to change conversion ratio for excess food into gold. I am able to work with IDA and open files. However, it is very difficult to label and comment them when they are fresh new. If anyone can share their database, it would help me tremendously. I would greatly appreciate it and will share my findings. Thank you.
