So, sorry to annoy but, does anyone know how to temporarily change the sprite of the player character?

was looking back here for new questions when i saw your post

when the player rides a bike they have a different sprite
so if you scrap the bike (no pun intended) you could have the disguise :)
but it would probably have to be a ninja or something because i dont know if you can remove the increased movement speed :D

the only problem then would be making wherever you wanna use it an area where the bike is allowed :)

im not sure because i havent tried hacking ruby but is the fog added using a script? if it is maybe the script doesnt load map tiles?

and what's the relevance of the sprite and pokemon pics at the bottom?

[theboss]

I thought that the pokemon needed a size of 64X64 but even then some are to big
so probably they need a smaller size at least the pokemon itself right?
Can somone tell me the Exact size the pokemon can be in order to load them without trouble into fire red?

[One Winged Angel]

You were right, its 64*64

[MASTER-SHIN]

its still really slow. the highest i get is 70%

Are you definetly within the right number of colours?

[theboss]

i think so
so your saying that if u use the right amount of collors no pic is to big?

[~Fire]

Under normal scripting(pokescript) circumstances, can it be possible to insert secret bases in fr/lg games?
It would be nice to see how the script is but this isn't a request thread.
also whenever i insert an aron revamp into a game with Unlz-GBA the aron always appears as a glitchy mess on the bottom part.
can anyone tell me why this happens because i check all 4 boxes and change the number.
Thanks to anyone who will help me with these questions.

[Diggeh]

How can you edit a trainer sprite in Ruby (and insert its colors as well) in unLZ without screwing up every trainer sprite?

The problem is that every trainer sprite has the same palette offset: 00E59FD8

I realized that Free Space Finder wouldn't be of help because it just ruins all the trainer sprite palettes. >_<

Genius! Thanks for the idea.

[Dark Ryuzaki]

how do i insert sprites i have but many many sprites (including overworlds trainer sprites and title sprites) into my rom? im hacking firered

[Gold Tom]

Have you got Unlz? And for overworlds Xeon's Overworld Editor.

[cε׀׀]

how do i insert sprites i have but many many sprites (including overworlds trainer sprites and title sprites) into my rom? im hacking firered

You can use unLZ to import trainer sprites and other sprites in the game.
unLZ is foundhere (http://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=85025)
You should use Xeon's overworld editor to edit and insert Overworlds, as mentioned above.

[Minun200]

Hello. :]
I got two questions:
1. Is there a working scrpting tool download here on Pokecommunity? I can't seem to find one... Mainly need either Pokescript or SciptEd.
2. How do I change 'Team Magma Grunt would like to battle' into 'Team Skylark Grunt would like to battle?

Thank you.

What do you expect fog to look like?

i think so
so your saying that if u use the right amount of collors no pic is to big?

Pictures are 64 x 64, but they need to have the 16 colours that the previous sprite had. Otherwise you need to edit the colours.

Under normal scripting(pokescript) circumstances, can it be possible to insert secret bases in fr/lg games?
It would be nice to see how the script is but this isn't a request thread.

Thanks to anyone who will help me with these questions.

1. Refer to the scripting thread, please.
2. That means your colours are incorrect or that you are using too many.

How can you edit a trainer sprite in Ruby (and insert its colors as well) in unLZ without screwing up every trainer sprite?

The problem is that every trainer sprite has the same palette offset: 00E59FD8

I realized that Free Space Finder wouldn't be of help because it just ruins all the trainer sprite palettes. >_<

Each trainer sprite has a different palette, maybe you have the wrong offset.

1. Check the tool section.
2. You can do that using A-Text using the search feature or in a hex editor.

Well Blazichu its supposed to be sorta transparent i didnt word my question right

Hello there! I've been into this for about 3 days now, I guess you can say I learn fast, even though I still don't even have the basics down yet. I do know how to map edit, and do all of that, and I mindlessly downloaded a **** load of programs from this site, aswell as some from others. I stumbled on this site from google, after looking at youtube videos of some program called 'Advance Map'. I learned the maker of Advance Map came here, so I came here to check it out. I gotta say, this stuff is really impressive, but I can't say I'm exactly familiar with anything so! Enough about me, as if anyone here cares about my background and why I came here. I lurked around a little bit and I am good with forums usually, so I came to this thread after looking around abit.

1. How do you edit the actual Pokemon images, as well as names and things like that?
2. I was working with Trainer Edit, and then PET, and then I tried my hand at PokeScript through a tutorial on scripting by Thethethethe, where I just pasted an example script and edited it to fit my scenario, which was fighting Prof. Oak in a cave near pallet town after the league. I haven't figured out how to make the cave inaccessible until then, and I tried applying the Trainer ID to him, but to my dismay, the wild Pokemon just turned into '?' symbols, leveled 1. I pressed 'A' on Oak, and nothing happened. I checked trainer in Advance Map, I put in the Trainer ID, I don't know what I'm supposed to do. SO THE QUESTION IS, HOW DO YOU MAKE A CAVE INACCESSIBLE UNTIL AFTER YOU DEFEATED THE POKEMON LEAGUE, AND HOW DO YOU MAKE A NEW SPRITE A TRAINER?
3. How do you get those nice tiles I've seen in so many Hacks? I'm stuck with some basic ones from Fire Red, and I wanna make it look nicer.
4. I got Advance Text, and I made it the script program for Advance Map. I opened it, and it said that the game didn't have an INI file. Meaning I could not edit the text in the game, like I wanted. I don't know how to fix this.
5. Like number one, how can you edit the In Battle Trainer, I edited the out of battle sprites but in battle, they're different.

Thanks!

You have to change the palette, it's pretty simple, just look for a tutorial in the Documents/Tutorial Section. :)

[.:God:.]

I'm not gunna search 200 friggin pages I dont know if these were answered already but:

1. How do you insert tiles (like D/P) into palettes (like Firered/Leafgreen)
2. How do you copy backsprites and overworlds and make them so you can use them?

[Gold Tom]

So, is it possible to change the maps in the Union Room? If it is, you could, hypothetically, make an outdoor 'Linked' area or even put warps and connections in. You could create a multiplayer island or region, could it be done?

[garra911]

all over the internet there are tilesets, but they are all in .png format, so how do i take that tileset and insert it or part of it into the game?

[Gold Tom]

I'm sure there is tutorial for this somewhere, oh, also, I'm pretty sure you can use Unlz for best results? Maybe wrong, oh well.

1. You can edit the images with unLZ GBA (Elite Map), the names with N-E-A, and the moves with any of the Pokémon Editors. Look for them in the Toolbox or the Tools Resource thread.

2. a) You'll need to learn scripting to do that, but if you're using FR, you could just copy the Person ID of the guy blocking the entrance to the cave where Mewtwo is.
b) In trainer editors there are empty trainer slots. Edit one of them and make a proper trainer, and put the number of that trainer slot as the trainer ID in Advance Map.

3. Some people make their own tiles, and some use tiles made by other people that are uploaded in ROM hacking sites and can be used by anyone as long as they give credit.

4. Create a new INI file. You'll just have to search for the text you want to edit before you edit it.

5. In-battle sprites can be edited with unLZ GBA.

Okay I opened unLZ GBA, and I just get a bunch of random oddly colored from what I assume are tiles, and I try to import an image but it isn't a PNG so it doesnt work, but I did to the GFX Dump with GS Ball. Tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Also, I searched for text in Fire Red, the Controls for example, named them, and tried editing them but they stayed the same on the game.

[sadow3]

i have poketronic and i know how to change the legendary battlesbut how do i make a new one

[Quilava's Master]

There's a document in the Tutorial section that has the offsets of the trainers and the pokémon in unLZ GBA for Fire Red. The sprite you insert must have the same size as all the trainers, it must be indexed and in PNG format.

And for A-text, sometimes there's the same text many times, if you try to search and edit a person's dialogue, you'll see that it'll work.

I have one more question, how do you edit an attacks' animation? For example, if I were to want to edit 'Ember', and make the animation of the attack different, how could I do it?

[theblindtrombonist]

I am a beginning hacker and I've seen this problem in several hacks done by people, but I'm curious to know whether or not it's possible to prevent an arrow from appearing in front of the character in some glitchy areas.

[fleek]

Man, I'm full of questions.
On top of the one I made 2 posts ago, how do you make it so the ROM doesn't stop working after you beat the Elite 4? I beat the Elite 4 earlier today and now I can't play again, it really bugged me.

[nemesish]

Three questions:
1.- Can i transfer sprites from red/blue to Yellow? (cuz i want to change ome sprites ex: R/B alakazam to yellow, R/B Mewwo to Yellow)
2.- Is the Pokemon´s color affected by this?
3.- Which tool can i use for this?
thanks in advance

[fleek]

Well now I found a full INI file for Fire Red, and I'm trying to edit the script itself. I have PokeScript, and I read up on thethethethe's tutorial a few times. I then copied one of his scripts, followed the instructions, edited some of the details to my liking, and I still got nowhere. I made a new sprite in AdvanceMap, assigned the person ID, and to my dismay, when I went and pressed A on the charecter, every time, the game just froze. I have tried it with 2 Different scenarios, 'GivePokemon', as well as 'WildPokemon'

I don't know what I'm doing wrong. Please help?

I got a question which I hope to be answered though... :\

I mapped a map which contains 34 people in that certain map.
I arranged them according to what I desire to be seen in-game.

after those things are done, scripts are inserted, I tried it out, and some people were not there... :\
it is very weird, since it's my first time to experience this... :\

I am using advance map 1.92, btw...

First of all get your keyboard fixed then dont click on bold and underlined, and people will answer when they are ready not when you want them too. Also do what this thread says to do first (SEARCH BEFORE ASKING A QUESTION) as this has been covered before, but I will answer part of it.

Well first you need to extract the tilesets your self from a D/P game.
Then put them into an existing FR tileset BMP. Then search this thread for how to insert it(iv posted a thing about a week ago here).

No. However, you can edit the Old Man script if you find the offsets, Someone posted them for FR the other day. :)

try in, in theory it could work

if you made the one map massive and made an island of it it could work :)

Remove all the Map Scripts. That could be a Map with a Map Script, this could easily change the location of Sprites and stuff, on the Map... So remove all of them. :)

how do you change the trainer type in pokemon gold?

Do you actually mean what trainer is what? You can add in new battles with trainers from groups, but changing a trainer to a different type like, for example a bug catcher to a fire breather is a lot more difficult, I haven't tried to do that as of yet, might either require ASM or just need a change a specific code or you might have to try and add in new trainer battles.

Im really new at hacking and i want to know how to insert music in pokemon battles that isnt from the game but things like songs i have on my computer.

And also whats the best program to edit battles with and can i please have a link if its a download

Sappy would be your best option, but to do that you need MIDI to GBA.

[Shaggy Typhlosion]

what is the trainer battle music offset in FR/LG?

[Semele]

hm... thankies for the reply, however, they aren't hidden and they have no person i.d.'s.., which I already knew those things, though...

Then check the map scripts, there may be one that hides some of the sprites. If that doesn't work either, change the map's location and check if it happens again.

well, I already did everything I knew before I posted my question here though... I already tried those, Chistos.., yet, no luck... -__-

Oh well, no biggy, I can let it pass. they're just useless sprites to add in the events like flowers in the garden that blooms to beautify the settings...
thankies for helping, though.
I appreciate it. :3

[hypermonkey]

I've been searching everywhere and I couldn't find a post... can someone tell me how to extract or export music from a GBA rom(Pokemon Emerald). The only guides I found were how to import music or edit them. What I need to know is what tools do I need to export music from Pokemon Emerald and how to use them.

[Shadow Magikarp]

APE help
you know in the thread Palette Editting for Dummies (http://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=123858)

[Minun200]

ok when i start p a-mart i get this (see thumbnail) does any one know how to fix this ( i tried to run it with compatability with windows 95 )

There is a very easy solution to this. Go on google and search the name of the missing file and download it. Remember to put the file in P-Mart. Hopefully, it should then work.

[Gold Tom]

Hi! Sorry for all the questions, but does anyone know what the Unlz offset for the Emerald Titlescreen tile map is? You know, the Rayquaza on the title screen, I know it is the hardest, but I can do it if I have access to the tile map, any help?

[BigSteve]

What are the offsets in TLP for pokemon gold for:
1) the black writing screen with Nintendo, Gamefreak and Creatures or w/e it is right when you start up
and
2) the gamefreak screen (the one where the star flys across and the gamefreak logo comes up with 'GameFreak presents'

maybe if you just keep going and work out what colours you get in game for the colour in the editor then you can do it using the editor?

How do I change where Oak moves in the beginning sequence in Pallet Town after he stops you from going in the grass? Leaf Green

[Frostbite]

How do I change where Oak moves in the beginning sequence in Pallet Town after he stops you from going in the grass? Leaf Green
If you want to change the movements that he makes then you need to use a hex editor and manually edit the script to your likings.

It would be easier to make your own script.

[nate443556]

Well what exactly would I look for in the Hex Editor that dictates Oak's movement?

If it's easier, how would I create a new script for him? I know how to assign it in advanced map, but I don't see how making a whole new script in a hex editor would be easier than editing one, unless there is a tool for that...?

Sorry, that's not currently possible with what we have learned so far. It would require repointing the offset so you could add more, and since we don't know how to read pointers, it's not possible. :(

How do you insert new tiles into Advance Map Editor(Also, can you download them or do you have to make them?If you have to make them, how would you do it exactly?)? I read the tutorial, but when I edited my palette just by using a paintbrush, I saved it, but when it said to load it, it only showed the original palette file...why is that happening?

How do you get PoketScript to work?
I downloaded it, I was using an example script off of youtube to test it, but it didn't have the compile option on it... What do I have to do to fix this?

Right?Downloading commercial ROMs is always illegal, regardless of whether you have a physical copy or not. The only legal way to get a ROM is to dump it from your own cartridge, and even that's very gray-area (i.e. US courts once ruled against it).

[IIMarckus]

Is there any useful documents or tools to help me get started on ASM hacking?Assuming you mean gb-z80 (the kind of ASM used to program the GBC), you can find a lot of resources at WSU (http://cratel.wichita.edu/cratel/ECE238Spr08).

Find a list of opcodes, and start disassembling a section of ROM. From there you'll be able to figure it out.

Well it depends on where busted 101 is from (other than "somewhere..."). Here in spain virtual copies of intellectual work are legal if you have a physical copy.
Anyway, it's not like busted101 or anyone is gonna get busted for this (lol lame pun) or you're hurting nintendo, but that's why we hackers release hacks in patches (not to trap n00bs)

My Questions.....

1.I know this has probably been asked before, but I keep searching and can't find an ips patcher that actually does something. Could someone direct me to a good download site? I don't know why I cant' find a good windows ips patcher lol...

2.How do you insert new tiles? I read the tut on here, but it didn't work, or I wasn't doing something right....Can someone explain to me how to do this?(also it'd be to know how to make your own tiles too).

3.How do you get PoketScript to work? I can download it, but if I was to compile a script example I found, it wouldn't let me compile it.When I right click it, there is no compile option...what do I do to fix that?(also, I need basic help in that field anyway, but you do do all the script on a notepad right? Do you have to save the file as anything special other than just .txt for it to compile or work?).

4.Is there a way, when editing, to delete a map using advance map, instead of replacing it, or do you have to replace it and it can't be deleted?

[nemesish]

Three questions:
1.- Can i transfer sprites from red/blue to Yellow? (cuz i want to change ome sprites ex: R/B alakazam to yellow, R/B Mewwo to Yellow)
2.- Is the Pokemon´s color affected by this?
3.- Which tool can i use for this?
thanks in advance

Sorry for asking again but i really need to have this 3 questions clarified.

[Meowth]

Use Lunar IPS. Its easy to find...

Now I have a question, how do you remove the image that comes up before you go into silph co in Fire red? Its like the thing that comes up in viridian forest, the powerplant, some caves... I need to get rid of that, at least for ONE of my maps.

[Veng3anc3]

I told him to use those offsets... apparently its the exact same at zero, so I told him to use 2 and -2.... Kinda weird, right? It should have worked.

maybe hes putting those offsets in a different connections and not left/right.

About a week ago, I added new sprites to replace Bulbasaur and Charmander. I then spent time making maps and editing text and things. Whenever I tried to pick the starter from the Pokeball, it would freeze up when it says, "This Pokemon is really quite energetic!" It does not crash when I choose the Unedited sprite of Squirtle, but it will when the rival chooses his starter. I made sure not to write a sprite to the game unless the size was smaller The programs I have used were Unlz-GBA, Poketronic, Advanced Text, Trainer Edit, and Advanced Map. Is there anyway to fix this, or will I have to redo 10 hours of work?

[Thrace]

1: For the applymovement script, do I put the offset in a person or a script?
2: How do I edit or add sprite in battle?
3: How do I edit text in battle
1) The person
2) You must replace an existing one, simply use UNLZ to put it into the rom and then use RS Ball to change the offsets of the pallete and sprite.
3) Use Advance-Text and search for that text.

Could somone show me a simple wild battle script toutorial? I tried some others on Pokecommunity but none of them work..
wildbattle 0x[pokemonNumber] 0x[level] 0x[item] 0x[battleType]

2) IconEd
3) UNLZ + RS Ball
4) Try the newer version or Amplifier 2006 AE

What are the numbers for the ?? sprites in unLZ?
They all have the same pointers so you have to change the pointers to some empty space and import your image and pallete into it.

I'm pretty sure you can't add but you can replace some of the empty ones and change their size. Although be aware that there are a limited number of palletes when changing colours.

1) Search for Lunar IPS in Google or WinIPS
2) What happens when you try it? Do the tiles not show up? If that is the case then you are have used incorrect colours in your tileset they are limited to the 16 in the current tileset.
3) Use XSE
4) Why would you want to delete a map? Well anyway you would have to find the offsets of the events, map, header, footer etc. and set everything to FF.

Use Lunar IPS. Its easy to find...

Now I have a question, how do you remove the image that comes up before you go into silph co in Fire red? Its like the thing that comes up in viridian forest, the powerplant, some caves... I need to get rid of that, at least for ONE of my maps.
I'm pretty sure you can't but you can find those pictures in UNLZ and make it black if you want, I think thats what Zel is planning to do in SG. Why not use another map?

Hey. Does anyone know a pokescript script for a starter event like the ones in Fire red?
Read some tutorials.

HI how I can insert a new map with AM 1.92 and my roms is Pokemon Fire Red ?
I've never tried it but isn't it just File-> Map -> Insert Map

I think with un-lz Advance from Elite map. But how do you make a map that looks like D/P style?
Insert D/P Tiles.

About a week ago, I added new sprites to replace Bulbasaur and Charmander. I then spent time making maps and editing text and things.

Just replace that script all together, it definitely won't take 10 hours so its the easiest solution, if you want to make a hack scripting is very important.
If its a problem with the image then you might have to repoint the image and/or pallete data. To check if it is the image try using RS Ball to open that image and if it crashes than you'll have to repoint the data.

[mat1554]

Not a insert a map with a header.

New headers, new map.

If not the same name. Insert a map with name Bourg 2, and I don't want rename a other map.

[fleek]

So I looked at 2 different unLZ-GBA tutorials and I don't know what I'm doing wrong.

I drew the picture I wanted in Macromedia Flash, my main drawing program that I also use for animation. After I published the file as a PNG, I opened it in MS Paint. I didn't edit anything, I was satisfied with how it looked, and I saved it as a PNG in paint, just so that I would be following the tutorial's steps. I opened it in IfranView, and decreased the color depth to 16 Colors (4 BPP), and supposedly that should have made it "Indexed". I then edited the background to make it transparent, and saved it. It should have been indexed, right?

Apparently not, seeing as I tried to import it into unLZ-GBA, over the Pokemon I wanted to replace, but, an error message popped up, informing me that the image I had thought I had indexed, wasn't indexed.

What did I do wrong?

How can i for what i´m asking Meowth? -_-

I think nobody understood what i´m asking.
I´m trying to know if i can replace a pokemon battle sprite (the one when you fight, in this case Alakazam or M2) from r/b manually or if there´s a tool (like unzL-GBA) for the GB games.

okwhen using YAPE and make a d/p poke evolve to another the level shifts..Like Shinx (Volbeat) evolves at Lv 15 into luxio (whiscash) but when i get luxio its at lv 12...the same sota thing happened with EPR by Datharon..but it didnt de-level..it just stayed at 14 until it was leveled up again but as a luxio

edit: nvm...i just changed its growth rate to match Shinx's it works....but unfortuanately i accidently revealed another d.p poke (not hat hard to find out) Luxio is in everyone! click my sig to see the thread

Can somebody tell me how to make new tiles and insert them in Pokemon Gold?
or atleast link me a tutorial?


Umm first place a compressed tileset (not too compressed) into the ROM, blank space. Then find the map pointers, the tileset pointers are three bytes. The redirect the pointers so that they can read your new tileset.

what is XSE? i looked through the "hackmews toolbox" thread thing and i didnt see anything related to scripting. download/threadlink? thanx in advance.

I believe that XSE is a scripting tool, that is off the top of my head though.

So I looked at 2 different unLZ-GBA tutorials and I don't know what I'm doing wrong.

I drew the picture I wanted in Macromedia Flash, my main drawing program that I also use for animation. After I published the file as a PNG, I opened it in MS Paint. I didn't edit anything, I was satisfied with how it looked, and I saved it as a PNG in paint, just so that I would be following the tutorial's steps.

What is the message specifically saying? I believe that you can untick one of the options while saving so a certain message does not appear.

They are all compressed, so you would have to find the sprites in TLP or Tile Molester, then find the pointers. Then change the pointers to the new location of your new Pokemon, it has to be compressed, only slightly otherwise it will not work.

It's not as simple as it is with the advance gen games.
You can look here for some info. Tutorial (http://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=136169)There's also a document of damnedmoose posted by cartmic on that page aswell.

I haven't tried the way Blazichu said, but it would probably be worth trying aswell.

open unzl then go to the Pokemon you wanted to replace then save it[png]

open the image you save earlier [he Pokemon you wanted to replace] the do "Edit > Paste"

Edit the shiny images, but keep the shiny colors. When they appear in the game they'll have the same colors the battle sprite has.

Oh thanks

Also, seeing as I have clearly no skill in the form of pokemon hacking, I'm coming to you guys AGAIN with another problem.

See, I put in the pokemon I wanted over ratatta. The image, however, in the game still has the color background, and has like a glitchy look to the bottom part of the image.
http://img366.imageshack.us/img366/8822/wildnosevf4.jpg
Tell me, what did I do wrong?

[Semele]

The image has to have the same dimensions as the one you're replacing, and the same or less amount of pixels that are used for the pokémon except for the background. This is what causes the glitchy stuff at the bottom of the image.

Also, in unLZ GBA, you can see the pokémon's palette. The color in the left should be used for the background, if you use any other color, it won't be transparent but it will look like the pokémon in your screenshot.

Hi! I have a question.

If I edit the colors of a background-image, will the front image change the color too?
If not, where can I found the shiny pokemon sprites (front-image)?

If you edit the colors of the backsprite image, which has the shiny palette, that will change the shiny front sprite in the game, too. If you change the colors of the front sprite in unLZ, they'll be the same in the backsprite.

Go to View > Format > 1BPP.
Press Ctrl+G or Edit > Goto...
Type 6802F then press enter, you should see "RedGreenVersion".

Go to 3DBAB in a Hex Editor to change the order the tiles appear in, if necessary. They're ordered 60 to 69.

DILLIGAF if its complicated or ez (srry if its rude) but I'm still gonna try so anyhelp will be appreciated.

To expand a ROM a good hex editor is more than enough. Besides, expanding the ROM is pretty useless since you wouldn't able to use the data on the expanded section. Pointers (I guess you're talking about a GBA ROM) are made up by 4 bytes: 3 of them are the offsets, the other one is the memory bank. Using 3 bytes you can access anything between 0x000000 and 0xFFFFFF.

[timson733333]

This is really weird. Listen up, guys.

I tried to put a Ninja Kirby sprite into Sapphire, replacing Farfetch'D. The first time it let me go, but then it was ruined the second time! I tried importing the image again, but it said "Compressed size is 25C. Which is too big. Aborting" I shrinked it, AND it is 16 colors! What is wrong?

This has probably been asked before, but, I'll ask anyway... Okay, I got some advice to get XSE for script editing. It seemed really good at first, but then when I tried to compile an example script, it says:Error 13 'Type mismatch (on the file I have it on) on line 2

Well, I'm a noob at scripting, but is the Poketscript the same format as XSE? I used Poketscript commands in it lol. Here is the commands I used:


#org $Test
lock
faceplayer
message $Person
$Person 1 = Hi. Sup?
callstd 6
release
end

Am I doing something wrong?? Well..what I really need is someone to teach me this, or lead me to a good tutorial lol. I'll really appreciatte an answer, thank you for reading this post. :D

All you have to do is find free space, check automatically fix pointers, and change the image offset to the offset of free space.

You can edit the front and back sprites using this program here:

As for the Icon sprites you can edit them in Tile Layer Pro(TLP):

http://crystalfallows.110mb.com/AutoIndex/index.php?dir=tools/General/&file=tlp11.zip

When using TLP go to 8EABE then click on 'Pallet>Load' and load the TLP pallet file iv attached to this post, this will make it easier to see what you are working with.

How? It says Free Space Finder Alt + F, but it's grayed out. It won't do anything lol. How do I find space? Sorry for all the noob questions, but I just have no idea lol....

[Cryomancer]

Try putting free space finder's exe in the same folder as XSE. you can find it in the toolbox section if you don't have it already. I believe that is what the instruction in another thread said to do.

[megiddo]

Or you can open your rom in a hex editor, select goto offset, type in 800000 and scroll down until you see a lot of FF, then use the first FF as your offset. If you a need a pic, I can give you one.

To the best of my knowledge, there's no tutorial that is just on repointing the actual attack data, but I could point you to a tutorial on repointing text by Coolboyman. GB Pointers (http://www.zophar.net/tech/files/gbpointers.txt)
You could apply knowledge from this to the attacks.
