+A hex file contains the data (images flipped, mirrored and 32bit) for the raw/sep files. Copy the data of the sky you like to the end of a raw/sep file (with a hex editor) and change the raw/sep link of the sky images in the dat file (with OniUnPacker). Every image has a size of 256x256 pixels, which is a length of 40000 in hex.

+==Bungie TV from Macworld 2000==

-==Sorry?==
+Sorry for interrupting you guys a bit.

-:Maybe the wiki's main navigation and other toolbars are centered? No they're not.
-:In this case, the TOC takes up a lot of vertical space, and so does the header.
+Alloc or geyser can help, I guess. [[User:Ssg|Ssg]] 02:02, 20 January 2008 (CET)
-:Flushing the header to the right places it alongside the TOC and saves space.
-:This was an experimental response to a concern by Neo. The current idea is to:
-:*make those big headers (with full-featured navigation) into footers
-:*use something much lighter at the top of the page (one or two lines)
-:Hope you're OK with that. ''Please don't lose your temper with anyone''.

-:Gosh, geyser, that's not the point.
-:Yeah, they're not centered, they're on the left. But they're always there. That's the point.
-:Have you ever tried to use a navigation that always jumps from one place to another? Such a navigation is just useless.
-:I don't mind where the navigation is placed as long as they're all in the same place.
-::[[User:Ssg|Ssg]] 16:07, 25 September 2007 (CEST)
-:Point taken. Be careful not to flame anything or anyone: it's all work-in-progress.
-:Neo objected to having to scroll downwards to see actual page content, so I reacted.
-:Actually, I ''did'' design the header with two alignments in mind: right and center.
+I switched the bluebox images from the blue to the lila ones. Hope that was okay. [[User:Ssg|Ssg]] 18:07, 17 June 2008 (CEST)
-:I prefer a right-aligned header most of the time, but sometimes centered is OK.
+:Yes, it's OK. Thanks. [[User:Neo|Neo]]
-:It don't see it as "jumping" from one place to another. Not if you take OBD as a ''user''.
-:However, one point about full-featured navigation is that it's completely useless.
+==Homing Weapons?==
-:If people open an OBD page, usually they haven't come to look at the navigation...
+Hi, Ssg. I was looking over the weapons class in the Oni binaries, and I can't find where it records that certain projectiles, like the Scram cannon's, are homing. Isn't there a bit for that? --[[User:Iritscen|Iritscen]] 19:57, 28 February 2008 (CET)
-:So I'll basically swap the header and footer and make the new header even lighter.
+:Homing is a property of the projectile, not of the weapon class. You want to look at [[OBD:BINA/PAR3]].
