Introducing the 3dmm magic patcher!
http://foone.org/3dmm/patch/
So I've been
tossing out random
little patches in
various threads.
Since this is a terrible way to do things, even if you know how to use a hex editor, I combined all my recently released patches (and added a few more) into a simple tool.
You simply select your 3DMovie.exe (in C:\Program Files\Microsoft Kids\3D Movie Maker) or V3dmm.exe (in C:\Program Files\Microsoft Kids\Virtual3dmm\System), and then pick which patches you want. Then you download a shiny new patched file to use, which should have all the options you requested.
It doesn't actually upload/download files, it's using new HTML5 APIs to let it read and "download" files locally. I just did it as a website instead of a local tool for ease of design and updating.
I'll be adding more patches to this tool as I develop them, but for the moment it contains the following:
- No scene fades
- No studio sounds
- No startup sound
- Skip loading screens
- Don't adjust key-repeat
- Don't set volume
- Wireframe Mode
- Keep playing in background
- Run multiple 3DMMs at once
At some point I may introduce a UI-patch, which allows you to reconfigure some of these settings from within 3DMM (much like the ctrl-shift-I menu). But that requires a lot of win32 knowledge I don't currently have, so it's a low priority.
