Hello. I am new to ROM hacking and I am having a problem with a line break. I use Zelda 2 NES for experimenting and I found out that hex code for line break is FD (correct me if I am wrong). So, I inserted FD=/ in a Thingy table file. I then loaded it with Thingy 32, but every time I try to use it, text gets out of the screen. Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong? Thanks.

I don't know much about Thingy32 but I don't think very many people use that hex editor anymore. You should look at Windhex which many people like. With Windhex, you do a line break as "\\n". So it would be "FD=\\n". (I checked some table files on the web and FD is the correct value for Zelda 2.) If you want to use Thingy32, you might try using "/ FD" instead of "FD=/" because that's the format some older hex editors used for line breaks and section breaks.

I tried WindHex yesterday, but I could not change any value. I now realized that I did not turn Caps Lock on. Roll Eyes It seems pretty good. Thanks, Tito! Line break really works.
Edit: Too bad there is no undo option.
