You will need:
    The Compiler,
    the Assembler,
    and the Emulator.

All of these programs are conveniently available at
the VMU Script page :-)

GOTO: http://www.vmuscript.8m.com/

    Download the 'Hello' example and be sure to look at
the command reference page and the concepts page to
get some ideas of how to use the compiler.
   And PLEASE visit Marcus's or Maushammer's site to
get some technical help, or a lot of the VMU stuff
won't make sense.

It seems that some people have just downloaded the compiler before my
site finished updating. If you just downloaded version 1.74, you did
not receive the full version and it will NOT work right.
PLEASE GO BACK TO THE VMU SCRIPT SITE AND DOWNLOAD AGAIN!!!!

I've just uploaded the new compiler version 1.74 which features a
bug fix and two new commands for playing sounds. Please visit the
downloads page and download the new version. If you have time, feel
free to download the new sound example which plays a siren using the
new commands.

   ALSO: The page recently had some technical problems (I accidentally
erased index.html) so I had to re-create it. It should be okay now,

Actually I got more from the logic game.
I have a low level of programing for the PC so I get most of the commands
(loop,if - end if,etc.)
But for the VMU you have to make your own fonts,and that is where im stuck right
now.
I already get how to clear the screen and how the "hello world" program clears
the screen and prints in two parts with xbnk.

I just want to know how to put my own version of small fonts on the VMU LCD,I
guess I'm going to start mesing with the "small font" program.

Ok,I think I get it now.

hour = getsysvar: $1b
minute = getsysvar: $1c
second = getsysvar: $1d

I'll go try it,thanks.

The graphics are a little complicated, and the LOGIC
game is a little complicated to be learning from. A
good example to learn from is the VMU Script 'hello'
example, once you understand that go on to the more
advanced 'hello world' example. Both of these examples
are commented to explain everything. Just go to the
site to view them.
   If you want to have a more advanced understanding of
the LCD, visit the VMU Script concepts page and see if
you can get some ideas from there. It will explain
some technical things about the LCD.

it does, but you have to know the address of the
system variable.
   Since time is stored in system variables (which are
stored in a different area of memory), you have to use
the getsysvar function.
   For example, the seconds are stored in address $1d,
to retrieve it, you'd type this:
    my_variable = getsysvar: $1d

I hope this helps. If you aren't sure which addresses
are used for which system variables, check with
Marcus's site. It'll be at his VMS Firmware page.

I've just finished coding a text engine for the
VMU. It features a full font of 64 chars and symbols,
multi-line capability and automatic scrolling. Text
can be relocated by just changing two variables.

    It's written with VMU Script and the code is
attached to this e-mail. If you still code in
assembler, you can probably use the compiled code in
your programs, although it's much easier with VMU
Script!

during my programing i have found that you can you can over come the

loops it can do in a seccond, and then you get a variable contaning
the number of processor loops the computer that the prog is running
on!

I dobut you'll get anything out of him.
I asked and he didn't want to release any info in risk of it getting
'stolen' or something like that.

Anyway, here's something that may help you. It's a guide I released on a
chao hacking mailing list awhile back, and since then a few people have
provided more info for me to add as I became lasy and stopped looking for
info. I probably have information sitting on my HD that I didn't add, but
this alone should be enough to allow you to make the kind of chao you
want without an editor.

This is the Chao Adventure 2 Hacking guide. It contains information
on how to edit your Chao Adventure 2 VMS file from the Sonic Adventure
2 game to change information about your chao, such as it's stats, name,
and appearence. The only things you need to use this guide are
knowledge of how to use a hex editor, a VMU, and some way to get your
chao adventure 2 VMS file to and from your Dreamcast. Make sure the
line below this fits on your screen for proper viewing of this
document. Also make sure you are using a monospaced font. In this
document, hex locations will be refered to in 0x000000 form, and hex
values will be in 00h form.
-=====================================================================-
The chao data in chao adventure 2 begins directly after the icon. The
first data you will see is the owner information. The table below
explains the owner information.

  Next is the chao stats. Every stat is 2 bytes long, and stored
  backwards. The stats are also multiplied by 10. As an example,
  a stat which has a value of 1E23h, is actually 231E, and has
  a value of 8990. However, it's real value is 899, as the last
  place is ignored.

Hmmm...
Hope I didn't miss anything....
For some reason, I cant find this version of the guide in my outgoing
mail.
Special thanks goes to the few that contributed.

BTW, this guide was written about a week after I found some of the inital
info used.
I'm sure someone probably found some of this before me, but I was the
first to put it in a guide.
:-P

Alessandro:

I was looking over your webpage and was wondering if you would publish the
information you have found out about the data format for the Chao on the VMU.

This would greatly help others who are trying to develop tools to edit Chao.

Thank you,

Stephanie Rogerson

They are. I've looked at them, and unlike the Sonic Adventure 2
downloads, all of the PSO download quests are decently encoded, like the
Sonic Adventure (1) main save was.

>Is the third file (like in the easter quest) a jpg/gif file?

I'm not sure... But I will tell you that one of the PSOv2 quests (The
Blacksmith one I think) has 4 files!

I am trying to learn how the PSO quest files work and I have a few questions.

Does anyone know what each of the files contain?,I have been told that the
second one contains a mini program that controls the door,monsters,buttons,etc

Are they store in the standard format?
I was also told that they are encrypted,wich I do not belive.

Is the third file (like in the easter quest) a jpg/gif file?

I know little about the file system,but I am willing to learn.

Hope someome outhere knows.

My guess would be the VM filesystem info data that normally lives in a seperate
.vmi file (It's
certainly the case with .dci files - they're basically just a .vms file with
extra info added)
