simple hexing question!

[Silver]

Ok! this may seem obvious! But I've looked everywhere and can't find an answer! I'm following the tutorials on babyz.org and it says to hex from the babyzrez.dll file which I am doing. However it doesn't say anywhere how to make the step from that file to an actual .baby file? what am i missing? sorry if this is a dumb question thanks for reading!

you just need to open the game and put in a code that corresponds to the lnz you are hexing from. for example if you are hexing from wg.lnz you would need a code for a white girl with 2 pigtails.

Are you hexing in LNZ Pro? If so, after opening the .dll there should be a list of letters with +s next to them along the left. Click the + next to LNZ and different files in there correspond to different codes used when adopting a baby!

AB and ABX are for Asian boys, AG and AGX for Asian girls, BB/BBX for black boys, BG/BGX for black girls, BRB/BRBX for tan boys, BRG/BRG for tan girls, WB/WBX for white boys and WG/WGX for white girls. I don't generally touch the files with the Xs myself, they just correspond to different default hairstyles. The non-X files contain the 2-ponytail hairstyle for girls and the short hair for boys and are simplest to edit. In the tutorials on babyz.org you'll mostly be working with the WG file iirc.

Click the + next to the file that matches the code you're using and hex from the 1033 thing that shows up there! Hopefully this explanation made sense! Good luck with your hexing <3

Edit: eep, I... may have read your post slightly incorrectly;; In that case this repsonse is probably a bunch of info you probably already know, oopsie!

I just hex with a code baby I already put into my game, tbh it's a lot easier to me. I've never used the dll things, I don't know if it's actually easier? I've never tried to do it.

this is what i do too! i used to exclusively hex from babyzrez.dll, but then after always hearing about how much time it saves, i switched to hexing from the .baby file and have never looked back. the process itself is quite similar, but when hexing from babyzrez.dll you have to enter in the code and adopt a new baby every single time in order to view even the smallest change which i found to be SUCH a pain. the ability to just open the game, look at the baby, and then close it to make more changes is honestly so worth it to me.

but of course to each their own!

 Is there a default .baby file floating around then that I don't know about? I thought that seemed easier but I only have one baby, and didn't think copying and redoing that file was a good idea?

So babyz.org told me to hex from the dll file. Yes I am using LNZ. My question is how do I make the leap from my edited code in the .dll file to an actual baby in the game? Is there a special way to save the file? do I just take it and paste it into a .baby file? I'm used to hexing petz where I jsut drop in the breed-file and adopt from the adoption center.

THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR REPLIES!

I move all my babyz into the grandmas house folder, but you need to have the game closed for this. Then I open my game with no babyz out so it gives me the option to put in a code baby, and I just find a code online to use. There's also some readme file within the babyz folder that has codes in it. Every time you hex a code baby, if you use the same code again that baby won't be hexed over if that makes sense. You could also get a code baby and save it in a folder to use every time you wanna hex if you wanna use a code baby, and just save the hexed one as a copy instead of overwriting it. You could also paste your dll code into a baby code. That would work the same as just using a code baby. I don't know how to make it go from dll to .baby though. I hope this helps you, and I'm sorry if it's confusing.

Silver lacey answered your question in her first reply. it works just like petz, the wg/wgx/ab/abx etc are the 'breeds' and the screen you open you game to when you have emptied your adopted babyz folder is the 'adoption centre' so you put in a code that matches the 'breed' to adopt the baby or get from your lnz to a baby

Thank you! I didn't realize removing the .baby files in the adoption folder would pop up a dialogue box!

Thank you all for your kind replies! <3

Silver ah, i'm glad you've got it worked out now! i also meant to say, if you do want to try hexing from the .baby file instead of the .dll, aleisha did a super good video tutorial for basic hexing from the baby file which you can find here. & then there are video follow-ons from that tutorial which you can find in the tutorial directory!
