The argument is over. I don't understand any of your post on hex decimals.

its too complicated when you explain it to me- I just don't know how you do it.

It's not really hard to understand. Basic Algebra here.

Basically, they were telling you that you can toggle numbers up to maximum assigned values using hexadecimal codes edit.

The whole hex code itself with the exception of the last two digits are basically the commanding areas to the game you use to locate the objects you want to edit in quantity. The last two hex code digits are what you toggle to get the very amounts you want. You can use 01-99 as your last two hex digits to represent the obvious amount of 1-99 in quantity.

If a bigger maximum game limit amount exists over 99 something in that game like SW2: Yoshi's Island can go up to 999 lives, you can use a-f codes that represent 10-15 values multiplied by 16 and add the next digit to get amounts up to 255.

Of course, if you need more than an amount than 255...refer to prof's post.

Sigh, it's harder to explain through typing though.

however your 99 in the code would be 36

3 = 3
and 06=96
adding the two you get 36. it's odd, but that's how hex works.

Guess my own memory of hexadecimal is a bit foggy since I've never used it again since high school. Although, I'm sure once I start my programming courses in college it'll come back to me altogether.

I'm certain it will. something like that is like riding a bike.

The real trick. . .

is re-learning things like Visual Basic, or even ascii can be a chore. But particularly Visual. Sure it can be integrated with C++, that's how a lot of games come to exist. But still it's no cakewalk. . . At least it wasn't for me, which is why I gave up on it. I really have no use for it as of this moment.
