When I search for PROF. BIRCH's Picture (That you see when you start a new game in Sapphire) in unlz, I can't find it. So I figured it just isn't the kind of compressed image that unlz searches for. How do I replace his image?

Whenever I try to make a new map, it has the name of a map that was already in the game, and if I change it, it then the new map is changed as well. Also, I used Map Purger to clear/delete some maps, and they are all named after one map. if I change their names, the map they are named after changes as well. Why is this, and how do I solve it? Thanks!

Probably you didn't search a lot because there's a neat explanation just in the Hack Showcase. Read it here (http://www.pkmncommunity.com/showthread.php?t=73966)

Sorry but you're wrong. Search better next time, there's a tutorial about it! Follow this (http://www.pkmncommunity.com/showthread.php?t=82358) one (Changing the Big Sprites at the Oak Intro) ;)

The entrance to the Pokemon League in my hack is set up similar to that in the G/S/C series, where you surf to the east from the very first town, in my hack. To get access to the water, you must not only have surf, you must have all eight badges as well. There is a fence seperating the water from the rest of the city, and the only way to the other side is through a house that seperates the fence. If you have all eight badges, then the guy inside the house will let you through the back, otherwise, you are not allowed through. I am going to use a warp to do this, but how can make it so that the warp takes you to the correct location outside the building? Thanks for your help in advance!

EDIT: New Question: Is there a program like Start Map Editor, but only for FR/LG? Thanks!

Ok, I'm trying to hack Leaf Green. I want to change the base attack of moves using hex. How is this done if possible?

You have to use the checkflag/setflag commands.
If you look in the "Documents and Tutorial" section you will find some examples. Also, question like that should be posted in the "Script Requests/Sharing/Discussion".


Is there a program like Start Map Editor, but only for FR/LG? Thanks!

If you want to change the map you want to start in, you can use SMCA. Look for it in my thread inside the Toolbox.


Ok, I'm trying to hack Leaf Green. I want to change the base attack of moves using hex. How is this done if possible?

There's a little program that will do the work for you. It's called A-Tack (http://rhtools.scizz.com/index.php?dir=RSE/&file=a-tack_0915.zip).

There are only betas. You can change the worldmap.

Is there a way to make a script start automatically when you enter a room?


EDIT: I remember trying to put a script right where you'd warp at and it didn't work.

EDIT: I remember trying to put a script right where you'd warp at and it didn't work.

Well, you can't since if you put a script over a warp it won't be executed. You have to place the script (which is a trigger, in this case) in the near of the warp.

[Naoshi]

Oh, okay.

Does anyone know the flag where you get Oak's Parcel?

does anyone have the unLZ.GBA Leaf Green list. i mean like where all the diffrent pics are?

[silverish_dewil]

I have only one question.
Since I am hacking Pokemon Fire Red is it posibble to put an animated map?

[bxela1]

My Sapphire hack is running along smoothly now that I am using pokescript. The only problem is that when I load pokemon sprites in unLZ.GBA they look fine but in the game the background stays and some of their color turns white.

BTW, I have edited the palettes to accompany the sprite.

[Youji]

does anyone have the unLZ.GBA Leaf Green list. i mean like where all the diffrent pics are?

Sorry it always be diferent in any Version. Sometimes it's there and in another LeafGreen it's there. Look around the higher numbers and sometimes use the 256 color mode and the Black/White mode.

Be sure that the first color of the palette is your background color. Also if you use a clear black in your sprite you have to hex it. A clear black color is in the battle transaparent. Try to use a liitle different color.
I have only one question.

I don't think so because every animation in the game is saved (and indexed) in the game. So you have to put some new ones in and that's not possible, sorry.

Thnx...

Well, first of all use SMCA. SMEA is old and SMCA is just better, obviously.
I'll answer you by quoting my answer to a question like yours:

I think that the Readme is enough, isn't it?

Anyway, all hacking tools should not be used in a slapdash way, otherwhise you could have serious problem.

Regarding SMCA, I never told anyone that can fully remove the truck. I'm still working on that...
Also keep in mind that if you change the starting location, all the starting script have to be rewritten in the new place, of course. And you can't pretend that SMCA will do that for you.

I've gotten farther along in my ROM hack, but I have a few more questions.

1) I'm having trouble with the game's PCs. On my earlier file for my hack, the PCs work fine. But, on my newer one with some edited text and routes, every PC in the game crashes when you Withdraw, Deposit, or Exit it. I've tried editing, but I have no idea what's wrong with it. Conflicting script error, maybe?

2) Whenever I attempt to insert a Pokemon's back sprite, the palatte always makes it come out weird.

Here's an example:

What I insert:
http://img410.imageshack.us/img410/3879/piplonjd8.gif
http://img521.imageshack.us/img521/8414/piplonbackspritekz6.gif

What they look like in-game:
http://img301.imageshack.us/img301/2130/piplonws1.png
http://img511.imageshack.us/img511/2029/piplonbackei0.png

I made the back sprite shiny and everything, but it won't work. Any help here?

3) I can't seem to fix the beginning text in the box with a Pikachu on it. Take a look at Zel's example from Shiny Gold:

http://img142.imageshack.us/img142/6213/image00as6.png

I've loaded up the three parts of the entering text into AdvanceText, but whenever I edit it...Well...

http://img529.imageshack.us/img529/6817/alittlehelpyo8.png

I understand that the reason that happens is because AdvanceText only edits the smaller text boxes, not that huge beast.

But, I need to know how Zel managed to edit the text without it coming out as NPC-talking-size. Is there a program that I already may have that edits what it says?

Thanks in advance,

1. Well, I hope that you have a backup because it seems that you overwrot some important data. If you can get the backup, try to make changes step by step checking if the PC still work. In this way you'll trace what corrupted the PC's script.

2. Uhm, what program did you use to insert the sprite?

3. To edit that text it's better to use an hex editor which support table files, like Thingy32/Translhextion for example. The presentation text can be edited just like a common textbox; keep in mind that the max length is 42 (or 40? I don't remember at the moment) instead of 36.

[glenmont9413]

how do you remove the machokes from being in your living room when you first move in???

[Dr.Stiles]

how do i put sprites in me threads?

[HackMew]

how do you remove the machokes from being in your living room when you first move in???

Select the first Machoke and change its Move type to Hidden, then change its People ID to 0000. Do the same for the other Machoke. Finally put both on the very top of the map. Save the ROM and you're done.

The easiest way is to edit text in advance text editor (search for it in toolbox forum). All you need is to find the text and turn on the special dialog button and the text will appear to be normal.

I think you should have it in Sapphys fromat which I don't know what the format is this is the best I can do for you.

I need help because on my pokemon firered game that I am hacking the Hoenn and Jhoto pokemon try to evolve and they can't. why is that?

[bxela1]

My hack is moving along quite well and I just wondered how much of my game should be finished before I should post it in the Hacks showcase and how much longer after that until I should post a BETA?

[HackMew]

2) I'm using unLZ.GBA.

I've just inserted the two Piplon's sprites wiht unLZ.GBA and I got the same problem. Taking a closer look, I saw that the palette used in the backsprite is not "well-formed". Well, probably you won't understand what I mean. So, try to see a normal Pokémon like Bulbasaur etc. and compare his normal palette with the shiny one. Then do the same thing for your Piplon. I'm sure you'll see the difference.


I cant remember how to edit pallets, there was a tutorial a while ago but its gone now... can someone point me in the direction of a guide or tell me how to? Thanks :) BTW, Hackmew, your tools are amazing!

Well, there's a little tutorial in the Documents and Tutorial section. If you can wait, anyway, I'll post a tutorial for APE.


My script isn't triggering when the player steps on it. Its supposed to move the player, but nothing is happening.

When using applymovement to move the player you have to use 0xFF, not 0xFE.

Try this:

#org 0x800050
checkflag 0x26A
if 0x1 goto 0x800100
applymovement 0xFF 0x800110
setflag 0x26A

I want to find the offset for the charizard in the FR
title screen to use with advanced pallette editor, how?

The easiest way is to use the search function. Open VBA, load the ROM and once on the titlescreen open the Palette Viewer. From there, save the background as a PaintShop palette or as an Adobe Color Table. Open APE, import the palette you just saved and change the index until you find the Charizard's palette. At this point, search it in the ROM and edit it as you like.

You need to enabled the National Dex otherwhise they will never evolve. In the Documents and Tutorials you can find a neat tutorial about it.

Also don't answer with wrong and pointless answer, please.

Waht are the pallette offsets for the tilesets in FR? It depends on what Tileset offset you want. Just look them up in Unlz.

Is there anyway i can stop prof. oak from giving it to you again. or if you already have it he will not give it to you. please tell me. Easiest way: Just make Prof. Oak a new script. Harder way: Change your script to give the same flags Oak looks for.

ive got some questions

1. need help with marts. how do i make it so that the first time you visit viridian city you can use the mart with out the person giving you oaks pacel but still not being able to buy pokeballs until you get the dex?

3. on pokemon crystal where you enter cherrygrove for thwe first time theres a man there that gives you a tour and then gives you a map card and goes into his house. if you go to the house before hes not there obveously but im having trouble making a script like that for leaf green.


1. You have to edit the level script to do so. Maybe it would be better to rewrite it totally in order to fit your desire.

3. Ask in the Script Requests/Sharing/Discussion thread for further info.


All the Pokemon in my game are Lax natured.
Like, ALL OF THEM.
And I have no idea why.

Uhm, I really think that you badly corrupt your ROM... Try some backups...


If it's not too hard, i'm thinking of adding a radio to my hack. How would that be scripted in pokescript?

ADDED: Another big thing is that there can only be one gender. How do I delete the option to be a girl?

Implementing them would require several ASM hacking operations, and therefore makes it very, very hard. If not impossible.
Anyway keep in mind that you can't use some scripts to make such things.

You can't edit the world map with EM. You have to use unLZ.GBA instead.

Amplifier 2006 Ae. There you can choose the chance of getting the pokémon as male/female (like 75%-25%, or 100%-0%^^)
You can find Amplifier 2006 Ae in TreeckoLvl.100´s toolboxthread (the first link.)

how do i edit the level script of a map? You can find the offsets using Elitemap. Just open up the map you want, in your case, the mart in Viridian. Then click this icon http://img234.imageshack.us/img234/9863/imagetu9.png in the upper right-hand corner. There you go, there is your script.

Wow, I feel stupid.

It turns out that the Pokemon I caught just happened to all be Lax. =_=

One more question. [surprise, surprise]

How could I change a mart item from, say, Antidote into a Master Ball? I tried using AdvanceMart, and even with the Fire Red patch, it doesn't work, so I need another way.

If it doesn't work you have to use a hex editor. No way out.

I used advance map to make a new house and it works fine, but no matter what I do, the border block looks magenta-pink when playing the game. Can this be fixed?

I'm currently having problems with editing Fire Red version of pokemon. I can edit everything, houses, warps and EVERYTHING, but scripts(Which I see and hear...But not sure how it works.)

So if maybe I can get some guides for the hexshop and how to edit starters, stuff people say, and how I can make a trainer..Actually a trainer.

Thanks in Advance.

My question:
How do i change the sprite color from the character wearing running shoes? Did you change all the frames under the hero? You have to make sure that all the frames have been changed. i'm having a problem when using a program like bewildered or dexter. When I try to open the rom it says: "Supported ROM, but pokedex data unspecified" Let me guess you're hacking FireRed, Leaf-Grean, or Emerald, correct? Sorry, but the INIs have not been updated for these programs, sadly they will not work.

where can I get a "complete rom hacking package"
Hmm...To start off with download Elitemap, it comes with quite a few tools "for the trade". Here you go: Elitemap 3.7 (http://helmetedrodent.kickassgamers.com/filebin/elitemap37.exe)
As for roms; well, those are illegal and as such are against the rules to post a link to.

Does anyone know a level editor for LoZ:OoA/OoS(The two oracle games)? You may ask this question here, it is the forum for general hacking. It just so happens that many of us hack pokemon games only, so many of us, including myself, do not know much about Zelda hacking....

Thanks in Advance.Yes, scripting can be difficult. Infact, in my opinion it's the most difficult part of hacking! But we all have to start somewhere. First off, decide which path you want to choose, are you going to be a ScriptED or Pokescript hacker. These should help you either way:
Pokescript: Irish Witch's tutorial (http://pkmncommunity.com/showthread.php?t=81691)
ScriptED: Click on the icon that says "Tutorial" in your Elitemap package. It should explain the basics.
As for your your trainer conundrum: http://www.pkmncommunity.com/showthread.php?t=84971
Infact, a lot of problems members seem to have can be solved simply by looking at the Tutorial discussion here on the site. *hint*

As always, Hope it helped!

Take my advice, use Overworld Editor - Rebirth Edition. It's just a way better and it's fully compatible with all Advance ROMs. You can get it from the Toolbox thread.
If you're getting trouble with colors (which are palettes, after all) you could use APE to change them. As before, it could be obtained from the Toolbox.


Did you change all the frames under the hero? You have to make sure that all the frames have been changed.


Well, Spread is really old and it cannot display more than 8 frames per each sprite which is one of its huge limitations. Spread shouldn't be used at all I think.

Usually Overworld Editor doesn't came with EliteMap (at least in the offical package). And Overworld Editor is unuseful since my Rebirth Edition :P

I do not really know if I can ask this question here. Its related to Rom-Hacking, but not to Rom-Hacking Pokemon games.

Does anyone know a level editor for LoZ:OoA/OoS(The two oracle games)?Due to the extremely high level of compression in the games, there is no level editor released. If you're handy with a hex editor however, I've got some info on it, mostly from the old Acmlm archives.The format for the dungeons I found is like this: First, there are 256 rows of pre-defined blocks. Second, each row in a room is defined by 2 bytes. The first byte has 2 uses: The first nybble is the first byte that references rows of data between 60000 to 61000(first bank), the next nybble is the position of the row. The next byte is almost similar: The first part is the length of the row. Sometimes the row wraps down to the next one, so what it does is it repeats the first few bytes in that row if the row is big enough. The next nybble is the second reference.

Let's use an example: In Oracle of Seaons, in the room with the stairway to the ember seeds, the second row(two walls with normal ground tiles between them). The two byte value is 10 FF. Here's how it works: The 1 in 10 is the second most right number in the offset for which row to use. The 0 in 10 is the x co-ordinate of the row in conjunction to the other rows. The first part of FF is F, which means the length of the row. I haven't totally figured it out yet though. The next part is the second offset value, so the row of data is stored at 60F10, or if you read the bytes backwards, FF 01, or F1.

The hard part is that many of the rows used in the game are repeats and combos of several rows of data. for example, in this same room, there is a bottom row that is two inside wall connector pieces with bottom wall tiles between them. There is no such row in the game, which means that it actually uses 2 rows, cut to length and pasted together to make it look like one wall.If you look at offset 60000 you will find the rows that make up the dungeons. I hear the whole data is compressed to hades and back but I dunno. Other things I found out is that somewhere I found the asm? data for shutters and such where if I changed a byte I could make it so you have to bomb a block instead of push it to open the door. The exact location eludes me. Also, just like in Link's Awakining, the room order is exactly the same, including the fact that levels 7 and 8 are on a seperate map. Also, each unique room belongs to a certain dungeon unlike the la ones that could be changed arround. Music, map and compass data, enemy, pallete, which dungeon you are in, and other things are expressed via each map piece, so the map data would technically be easier to manipulate than la's data.

That's all I know for now. Oh, one more thing. Any door you go through that doesn't have a warp assigned to it will warp you, and I only tried this in Seasons, to the place in winter where you talk to Impa in her cave.Okay, first of all, I found out that shutters require 2 parts. The level data is merely graphical in nature, and it makes the animation look correctl. The other part is in another section of the rom, and it consists of a co-ordinate and an animation byte. The animation byte is what the door will look like as it's opening, up down, left or right. Then, I found out enemy data. Yes, for now I can swap enemy groups in rooms, and overworld and such. The enemy data is 2 bytes, and works(so far) like the enemy data in LA, but is more flexable. For example, c7 49 is in the roo above the enterence in level 1. What it does is makes bushes contain stuff. Then there is a special object byte that basically sets up the triggers, chests, keys, ect for the room. Also is the person you want to appear. It seems that you can make a person say different things, as the sprite is not a seperate entity, but rather a two-byte pointer, thus far. I still need to do more work.I found enemy data! Now I should be able to place enemies in dungeons and such!. Also, sprites have this weird co-ordinates thing. Say I want to put somthing in position 64. Instead of it being 64, the data looks like 6848. I have no idea why that is, unless the 8 is a pixle offset, just like bytes ending in 8 in the megaman games make's it exactly on the square. I should try that.As for the enemy bytes, there are 4 per enemy, and it seems as if there are several areas that enemies are drawn from. The first 2 bytes I haven't deciphered yet, nor do I know exactly what any f* bytes inbetween are for. As for the actual enemy data, there are 2 bytes. Let's take traps for example, 0e. The bytes for a standard trap is oe01, while a faster trap is 0e05, while the super fast trap is 0e02. The traps that follow you are 0e00. Moblins? 0a00. Want to turn them blue? 0a01. The second byte seems to be the properties of the sprite, but I'm not sure exactly of all the sprites and their commands.Basically, the dungeon data has been fully decoded. At first, there were problems because some bytes didn't seem to match up. that's been figured out now.

Basically, the structure of each room in the rom is that each room is made from a mixture of 2 byte pairs that reference pre-defined horizontal macros, only their length can be adjusted. With the first byte, the first part is half of a pointer that leads to a row of data. The second part is how many bytes into the row the data starts. The second byte has a part that determines the length of the row. If the row exceeds the edge of the screen, either the remainder of the data will be drawn, or it will start to draw the next macro that's below it. The last part is the second pointer. So the byte pair 20 D2 means that at 60220 In the first byte, the 2 is the 10's digit in the offset(20), and the 0 means the row starts on the first byte. In the second byte, the D means that the row goes for 13 bytes, plus 2(which is always added). The other 2 is the 100's digit in the offset(200).

Now, each room starts off with a unique byte. This byte is a bitflag, and most rooms are set it as FF. For each bit, starting from the right, each bit represents 2 bit pairs. If the game encounters a 0, then on that byte the game will draw a single tile from the tile index. So lets say for example that the room starts with F7. This means that there will be 3 byte pairs, and then a single tile drawn. After there will be 4 byte pairs, and then another length byte. Some rooms seem to only have the FF, and the rest are all byte pairs. It's also interesting to note that a lot of rooms have either 24 bytes(with a second one of these length bytes), or 27 bytes(wthout a second one). My guess is that if the game detects the size of the room to be a certain size, then it reads the other bytes or somthing.

BTW, the pointers are all relitive or somthing. They look local, but the pointer list and the room data arn't in the same bank. I though I'd mention my breakthrough in case somebody want's to make a level editor. Using this data it's possible, although it would still require a little bit extra hand work unless the pointers are able to be re-adjusted.Anyway, sounds like a crazy combination of two different types of LZ77 compression. One type, which I often refer to as MIO0 (since the first time I saw it was in N64 games, which have that in the compression header), has 3 elements. Raw data, compressed data, and bit flags. For each byte, if the flag is a 1, it reads a length/position pair from the compressed data, and outputs the raw data. (Ex: Length = 4, position = 2, means output 4 bytes from raw data starting at #2.) If the flag is a zero, it simply outputs a byte from the raw data. (Of course, these can be reversed.)

The second type is the more traditional LZ77 seen in GBA games, in which the raw and compressed data are mixed together. It simply copies the raw data, but if it finds a certain byte, that means there's a length/position pair after it. (Though this means you have to do extra coding to be able to use that byte.)

Now what it sounds like this game is doing is mixing those methods together. The raw and compressed data are mixed, but all of it is considered compressed. If the flag bit is a 1, it's assumed that whatever is at the current position is a length/position pair, otherwise it's a single tile number. (I assume that for the actual LZ77 part, it uses the already-decompressed data as the raw data. It doesn't make a lot of sense to reference forward anyway. A lot of normal LZ77 implementations do this too.))

So I hope that makes it even clearer (not that your post was unclear, but best to have as much info from as many sources as possible) for anyone who intends to work on this. (The only thing I don't get is only having one flag byte. )

Introduction

This is a documentation of various data in the Oracle of Seasons ROM It's purpose is for educational value, and also to aid in the creation of a level editor. Please note that Oracle of Ages shares the same data format, but they do not share the same rom offsets.

I first became interested in hacking Oracle of Seasons long ago, so long ago in fact, that the actual cartrage wasn't even released yet! Yes, I obtained a Japanese rom, and no, I can't give it to you, sorry. Anyway, after playing the game for a while, I thought I'd have some fun and do a little searching. This was my first introduction to the game's very unique dungeon level format. I'll go into more late, but let's just say that this format took quite a while to crack. It's my hope that somebody is able to build a working level editor for this game, because wouldn't we want new dungeons to crawl arround in?


Dungeon Editing

In Oracle of Seasons, the overworld and dungeons each have a different level format. This is actually not surprising, since just about every 2d Zelda with the exception of The Adventure of Link and Link's Awakening, has this feature. The Oracle Games are no exception to this rule, and I am starting with the dungeon format because it's the one I found first without any outside help, and because it's so messed up that you've got to see it to believe it.

Anyway, to get started, let me first explain the three data parts to the dugeon room editing. The first part is a series of bytes, each in rows of 16, with the exception of the last byte on the row being 00(a dungeon room is 15 blocks wide, but some rows are differnt). Each row represents 15 blocks, by byte ID, that is placed in a level. For example, there may be a series of 15 blocks that have 13 floor tiles sandwiched between 2 wall tiles. If you change one of the floor tiles to somthing else, you will make a change. However, you will seem to edit more than just one piece of the dungeon. It will seem like you've edited a good portion of the whole dungeon! What this means is that this row is used many, many times in the rom bank, and that changing this row alone will not yield a good level edit.

The second piece of data is found later in the ROM, and it contains an unbroken chunk of data that is very hard to read unless you have a good starting place. This is the room's row data. The format is actualy easy, yet very difficult. At the start of a room there is one byte that starts it all off. In many rooms it's an FF. Why? Well FF is 256 in decimal, but more importantly it's 8 bits, or 11111111. See, if you read the bitstring from the right, like you are supposed to, each bit that's turned on represents a two byte pair that is actually a combination pointer/row size value. If the bits are turned off, the corrosponding data will, instead, be a block ID value, exactly like the ones used to make up the rows. So FF means that there will be 8 rows of data used, or 16 byes. If 00 was used, the next 8 bytes would be 8 blocks, each byte a different block. The room will continue to read this data in this format untill the room is fully defined, which is 15 rows by 11 columns.

Now, to describe the two byte pairs: This is by far the most unique compression system I've seen, and had the privilage of actually figuing out. Each nybble in this pair has a function. The first nybble of the first byte is half of a pointer, and it points back to the row. The first nybble points to the row between 256 bytes of data. That is, depending on the other pointer, that nybble will reference 256 bytes. The second nybble is part of the length indicator. It tells the game what byte on the row to start at. However, by default, it will add 3 tiles, so the very minium a row can be is 3 tiles. Anything less and you need to use the individual tile ID's. The next nybble, or the first nybble in the second byte is when the row ends. If the length overflows, it will use some of the next row as data. The game uses this overflow a lot, so be careful. The last nybble is which set of 256 bytes to use. Because of this method of pointers, only 16 pages of data can be referenced, which is fine since each bank contains exactly 16 pages.

The last bit of the data comes right after the row definitions, and they are the room pointers. They arn't tradditional pointers, but are relative. That means that starting at the start of the dungeon data, one byte is what out of 256 bytes the pointer starts, and the second is what out of 256 pages the pointer starts.



6. Warp Editing

Warp data starts at arround 13000 or so. At 13457 are 8 pointers that lead to 8 warp data sections for 8 "regions". The regions are as follows: 0 - Overworld, 1 - Subrosia, 2 - Maku Tree, 3 - houses and such, 4 - dungeon bank 1, 5 - dungeon bank 2, 6 - side scrolling sections bank 1, 7 - side scrolling sections bank 2.

After the region pointers is the start of the warp data. How the data works, is there are 4 bytes. The first byte is a branch, if set to 40, it will affect the last 2 bytes of the 4. The second byte tells the game what room or section of the map to put the warp(s). The third byte is the destination byte, and is a reletive pointer to the destination room and co-ordinates. The last byte is a nybble byte, where the first nybble is from 0 to 7, and is the region selector. The last nybble is the warp action(stairs uses 2, doors use 4, ect). Now, if the first byte is set to 40, then the last 2 bytes become a pointer to special data that is used in multiple warps on the same screen. For example, the very first set of 4 bytes uses this. The second byte is D4, for the Hero's Cave. The next two bytes point to the new values, which are 4 bytes like the last, except the room byte is replaced by a co-ordinate byte of where on screen it's located(normally it's assumed that if you enter a door or stairs, you activate the warp, but if there's more than one this tells the game to read it as such). Then the next two are same as usual. The first byte is used to connect more than one string together. If the first byte of the next set of 4 bytes is set to 80, that data will be used on the same screen as the previous set of bytes.

Destination values start at 12d5e, and their pointers start at 12d4e. Destination values consist of 3 bytes. The first is what screen you end up on, the second byte is the x/y co=ordinates, and the last byte is direction and maybe exit action. For example, dungeon entrances tend to have the second byte as FF, and the third as 93. I think it basically tells the game to ignore normal co-ordinates and just make the entrance in the bottom centre of the screen.

Ring chest values:

00 - no chest

01 - no chest

02 -

04 - Discovery Ring

05 - Moblin Ring

When i finnished a script and i save it as .rbc and click all files.
And then right click on it nothinh happens :P
What's the cause of that?

Does anyone know ANYTHING about Sappy here? I posted two questions about it a month and a half ago and got no response, while questions are getting whizzed right past and answered lickety split. Someone just asked a few days ago and got no response as well. I'm using the newest sappy, the newest midi2gba, i'm hacking fire red, and the music plays in sappy's built in player when it's inserted, but not in-game. If you can help, thanks, if not, one of you pipe up and say, sorry I don't know the answer or something. I know one of you has had to have used the program before.

Try to script the text by your own with empty offsets. Or give me the text you want and I make it for you.(Only a text not a whole script). Or I search the text on my A-text. Yeaah that's better. Post the text part please and say which on is it.(I know the most texts/trainers in FR/LG)

I know this has been asked, and i apoligise, but with my internet connection, I dont have the patience to go through all these pages.

when i try and edit a sprite in ULNZ, or watever it's called, I export the sprite, edit it in paint, and when i try importing it it says it's too big or something. PLEASE HELP ME!!!! noob in need!!!

and is there any program like dexter for firered and leafgreen???
When you select "write to rom" select the boxes "Export image", "Export Pallet" and "automaticly fix pointers". Make sure that "Auto abort if new data is bigger" is not selected.

for some reason whenever i try to play a gbc rom, patched or unpatched,(i use the newest vba) emulator the screen turns black, nothing happens, then if i click the menu at the top turns white and the vba freezes. Can some on help me?
Seems to me like a bad rom. Try downloading a new one. Otherwise, your computer may be either too old, or too full to run the program properly.

If so, just make the text longer and recompile the script after cleaning the old one. Weird things could happen if you just recompile the text over the old one without clearing it first :P

1) Hiya, I was wondering if it was possible to turn any map i wanted into a "Safari Zone" of sorts.

2) Is there a way to modify the amount of money some one starts off with?

1. Just use the Safari Zone tileset, in FR just go to "Header View" make Tileset 1 "0" and make Tileset 2 "8" using AdvanceMap.

2. I am sure that the amount of money can be changed by scripting or hex editting, if hex just search for the starting value of cash.

2. Thanks! :D

1. You could insert them by exporting the tileset in the Block Editor in AdvanceMap and then you add them in with a image editting tool and then you reinsert them. I think Tileset 1 as "0" should make the tiles with trees, Pokemon centres and Mart should and Tileset 2 as "8" should create the mix though.

Err.. "Comdlg32.ocx" :P
Anyway what you said it's not totally true since you can put that files (like many others needed files) directly in the same folder where the program is. Putting the file in the system directory it's the best solution anyway.

System folders in some OSes:

Win9x: C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM
Windows 2000: C:\WINNT\System32
Windows XP/Vista: C:\WINDOWS\system32



2) Is there a way to modify the amount of money some one starts off with?

Changing the initial money amount would require ASM, I think. The easiest solution would be to put a trigger script in the very beginning of the game that will modify the amount of money.
For further info about scripting, take a look to the related tutorials or ask in the Script Request/Sharing/Discussion thread if you're in trouble.

[Crikeyapokemon]

I've read that tutorial,but I still have problems with the script...

[thethethethe]

Is it possible to view a script with any tools?

This question has already answered before... Anyway, you can use ScriptEd. Keep in mind that if the program will encounter some unknown commands, the script could easily look messed up. In that case you have to decompile the script manually.

I need a few rom hacking tools to Complete my hack
-Change A pokemon's name
-Change a cities name
-Change a pokemon's cry
-Change the pokedex data (Dexter can do this but it says the "Pokedex base is unspecified")
-Change the title screen so it says pokemon "purple" version and so it has a different pokemon on it.
And thats it, if someone can give me these tools i will be forver grateful

[Short Range]

1. Changing a Pokemon's name is something you can do but I forgot how to do it.

2. To change the names of places you can edit them in Advance Map.

3. There's a program with a Poke Flute for it's icon but I can't remember what it was now.

4. If it says the base is unspecified you might have a corrupt ROM. I don't know.

5. There is a tutorial on how to change the Pokemon but not the words. It's in 'Documents and Tutorials'.

Hope I helped. Even just a little bit.

You're hack ing firered, leafgreen or emerald, right???
well

-name: you would use either dex, base. i think. either way it wont work.
-cities: as said, Advance map
-cry: pokecry, i know it's crazy.
-the whole "pokedex base unspecified" is the way to tell you emerald, firered and leafgreen dont work on this tool, thats why the name wont work either.
i'm sorry coz i know this didn't help, but hopefully you dont do what i did and waste a whole lot of time searching for these programs.

sorry, thought i was in different forum.

Thanx for the help, but the pokecry thing is very comfusing.
It doesn't say what pokemon's cry your editing or anything
And the rom is right it even says "Rom Is Supported" i'll go and get another rom to see if that works
and i need another tool
-A tool to edit the map screen

[exedissolve]

i know it says that, i have the same problem, i've just decided not make any new pokemon.

go to tool resources, a place called whack a hack, or something of such kind, look around there, they've got a map editor somewhere.
you do mean town map right?

I use Advance Text. Its really easy to use and repoints the text to somewhere else in the rom if its bigger than the original. I would definatly use this if I were you as hex editing is a pain in the neck. Download it in the Toolbox.

AFAIK, there aren't any related tools. Anyway, you can always use a hex editor.

What program are you using? PET, I guess. If so, remember that PET wasn't designed for FR/LG and therefore you could see weird behaviours. Using a hex editor would be the best choice, I think.

Final answers: Hopefully! (The other answers weren't exactly straight-forward)
1. Hex Editor
2. Advanced Map/ Hex Editor
3. PokeCry
4. Hex Editor (Dexter only works for Ruby and Sapphire)
5. Unlz.gba

I don't know them off the top of my head, try looking at the level script.

Okay, so when I open up tile molester, it says something like, language not found or something like that. Can someone help me?

What version are you using? Also, are you sure you extracted all the compressed files inside the Tile Molester archive?


Anyone know the flags for when the PokeMart person gives you the Parcel and when you delivered it to Oak?

The level script involves more that just a flag. In fact it requires some variables as well. I've solved the problem by simply nopping the level script and editing a bit the clerk's assigned script. To find the level script you can backtrace the text used when you get the Oak's Parcel.


I have a question and i searched for the answer. When using advance map, under header view it gives you the option of adding new map names. Unfortunately mine appears grayed out and unelectable. what am i doing wrong or what do i need to do to enable this?

That feature isn't implemented yet and cannot be enabled.


well my computer doesnt have fm20.dll do you have a place where i could download it

Why don't you read my answers?


Unfortunately, I can't view ingame scripts with any program, it's usually blank. Thanks for helping though.

Are you sure the ROM are you hacking is in the same folder as Elite Map? Make sure also you have all the ScriptEd needed files.

There are some tutorials in the "Documents and Tutorial" section. Take a look there.


1. What Programs to use for making new events in G/S?
2. How do you create Scripts or lengthen them in G/S?


For both of them, a hex editor.


Thanx but pokecry doesn't work

PokeCry does work, with FR/LG as well.
Regarding the hex editor, simply google for "hex editor" and you'll find plenty of them, even freeware. Some suggestion could be Thingy32/Translhextion.

Hey I'm having an issue with an indoor map I'm making

I saw this question answered before but didn't feel it was answered sufficiently.

The border of my indoor map, though I have the border tiles set as the black ones, always comes out as pink instead of black.

I've tried several different blocks within that tileset, but nothing works.

Thankyou Wow, most to all of those questions were answered already...Did you use the search function? Those answers should be on just the last few pages. Also, if you plan on making a successful hack, along the way you're going to have to use a hex-editor; whether you're hacking R/S/LG/FR or G/S/C.

I've just re-installed elitemap. But i can't view ingame scripts. Can anybody help me? Simply open up scripted, type in "yourromname.gba:script offset" It should appear.

im creating an ips patch plus im having to same problems as Shining Salamence is with the maps All right then,
The first rom you select should be a clean version of the rom you used. The second rom you select would be your modified version. After that save the ips patch with the name you want to give it. As for the map question, I personally never change my map enough to where I need to change it's calibrations...

I have two questions.

1. How do you add new event pokemon (ones that you talk too)?

2. How do you change the connection of towns?

Example: I want the map to work like this:
You start off at the tip of a mountain and go basically straight down. So it would be like this:
S
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
F

and in between S and F there would be towns routes and other things. How would I do this?

Thanks in advance.

2. You need to use the map connection tool in advance map.

[lookoutapiano]

How do i add pokemon to towns are citys.

You can do this using Advance Map. You load the ROM, find the city or town map that you want, then go to the tab "Wild Pokemon View" above the picture of the map. If there are no wild pokemon already you click "Create new Wild Pokemon" and select the areas you want them(eg grass, water), if you can already find them in water but not grass you click "Expand" then add them.

The whole, "rom is supported..." thing has been answered many times, but here it goes again... Dexter and Basedit were not designed to hack FR/LG, therefore they will not work.
As for the pokecry thing, I don't know I never use it. If you want to change the name of pokemon simple open up a hex-editor, load your table-file, and search for the Pokemon's name. When you reach an area in the game where it's like BULBASAUR.IVYSAUR.VENUSAUR.SQUIRTLE... This is where you change it. This question has been asked before too...

thanks for the help. is there a check pokemon command? Not really. There is a string of raws that you can do, but I'm sorry I do not know them.

I still have the error code on A-text
component 'Comdlg32.ock' or one of its dependencies not correctly registered:a file missing or invalid And you put it in the correct directory? Edit copy edit paste? Then I'm sorry I don't know why it's not working, try downloading the file from another site.

is it possible to make the sprite change of your character with a script or something by like "would you like to change your clothes"

(I am hacking the Sapphire version, by the way)
There is another way using a hex-editor, (What I do). But, it's kinda hard to explain. You would have to go to the legendary's script in a hex-editor and find the specific bytes that represent the pokemon. Then find it's level, which should be right beside it if I'm not mistaken. Anyway, PokeTronic would still be your best bet, but sadly the only thing I know of is downloading the runtime files.

how do you change a pokemons name on hexeditors for ruby I just answered that two posts up from yours... Please, use the search function.

In a GBA game, is there any way to get an NPC to follow me around, like in D/P? Or would that just be to crazy to even attempt? It would technically be possible; however, it would require a lot of scripting...

My Back up is bad and I was 50% done with maps... What should I do? I'm sorry, your rom-image has crashed. There's really nothing you can do about it. Always, make backups....and make sure they're ok too, I guess. o_O

when i use pokepic to hack my sapphire ROM it gets all glitched up and bright bright blue with black lines everywhere

It sounds like you haven't loaded a table file, you must do this and the "jibberish" will turn into words.


What is a table file and where would I find one?

EDIT: Sorry, I found it.

You would have to go to the legendary's script in a hex-editor and find the specific bytes that represent the pokemon. Then find it's level, which should be right beside it if I'm not mistaken. Anyway, PokeTronic would still be your best bet, but sadly the only thing I know of is downloading the runtime files.


I just think it's a bug of PokeTronic. Anyway, the wildbattle structure is the following:

[B6] [AA BB] [LL] [CC DD]

B6 is the hex value that starts a wild battle. AA and BB together are the Pokémon ID (swapped). LL is the level of the Pokémon, alwyas in hex obviously. CC DD are the held item ID, swapped again.

For a level 70 Mewtwo you would see something like this:

B69600460000

-> [B6] [96 00] [46] [00 00]

A list of the hex codes can be found here (http://wah.studiopokemon.com/index.php?go=comandos/codigos.php)


There's really nothing you can do about it.

That's not really true. If the ROM doesn't load properly it doesn't mean that you can't extract maps, palettes, scripts, etc. and import them on the backup ROM.

Yes its possible. But you can add only 20( i think) i'm not reall sure.. But i don't know how to do that. its mostly done in hexeditor

[gangabob]

Can you change the level of pokemon using poketronic?

Hello there, I've got a few questions. First of all, I'm hacking Ruby.

1)I'm using advance text for changing Pokémon's names. But I can't fit a name longer than the original Pokémon's name. For example, if I want to call Rattata Abcdefgh, I can't, 'cause there are 8 letters, and Rattata are 7 letters. So, is there a way to edit names longer than the originals?

2)Pokémon cries. I'd like to change them. I've tried to use Pokécryguy (it comes with EliteMap), but when I change the cry it sound like a 3 seconds explosion!XD! Is it possible to change them with WAV I made?

Thanks sooo much for any help!^^

Is there a tool that changes what pokemon appear in the wild for emerald?

[Jonny Buuz]

So maybe I'm missing something here, but whenever I use Amplifier 2006 AE (English), all of the attacks, pokemon, abilities, etc. are still in German, and I can't find the .ini to change them to English. Anyone got an answer to that?

[onstar102]

Is there any way to give/take money from the player character? I want my character to acquire money from something other than trainer battles.

Load your ROM, go to "optionen" (options^^) and click on "Sprache auswählen" (choose language) in the right corner (the red box).

[Argent Crusader]

Hi!
Can someone tell me what byte is for the movements of up, left, right and down without change the face direction of the OW, like Elm's Jump, and the battle in route 30, in gsc. But the bytes for Emerald (same as ruby).

[Knoxius]

Hello.
I was wondering if anyone could tell me how to insert blank sprites into game so I could put scripts into them

Thanks in advance

[BlackDragonite]

Yo, is there a tutorial for TLP? I´ve looked, but I didn´t found anything, and I don´t get how to use TLP...

[Shinju]

Did you try bewildered? It comes with EliteMap.

~Cya, UnitRico

It says my rom is a bad number. Does it only work with ruby or something? I'm using version 3.7.

[Jonny Buuz]

Load your ROM, go to "optionen" (options^^) and click on "Sprache auswählen" (choose language) in the right corner (the red box).

No, that whole part is in English... the parts that are in German are like, TMs, attacks, pokemon names, etc., not the program itself.

I'll post a screenshot soon.

Ok, here's a noob question for ya'll. I got these pkmn emerald offsets from the archives (see below). I tryed to plug it into unLZ, but it doesn't work. Does anyone know how to use these offsets correctly to edit from unLZ for some other program. It would be better, if someone could just give me the unLZ numbers for these stuff below.

Ok, now I went through the whole unLZ images but still can't find how to use the numbers. Someone PLEASE help!

EDIT: I think you need pokepic for these numbers to work, however pokepic doesn't support emerald, anyone know how to get pokepic working with emerald?

[Hiidoran]

Hi!
Can someone tell me what byte is for the movements of up, left, right and down without change the face direction of the OW, like Elm's Jump, and the battle in route 30, in gsc. But the bytes for Emerald (same as ruby).
Sure:
0x0C00=HopTileDown
0x0D00=HopTileUp
0x0E00=HopTileLeft
0x0F00=HopTileRight
I believe these are right, if not just say so.

Hello.
I was wondering if anyone could tell me how to insert blank sprites into game so I could put scripts into them

Thanks in advance
If your using Advanced Map, just go to "Events View", "Amount of People" and change it to the amount you want. Then, give the new sprite (which should be in the top left-hand corner of the map) it's script.

Yo, is there a tutorial for TLP? I´ve looked, but I didn´t found anything, and I don´t get how to use TLP...
Maybe this will help:

EDIT: http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g160/jonnybuuz/rrrrgggg.jpgDid you try downloading all the English INI files and replacing them with the German ones?

As Always, Hope it helped!

I'm not sure why the first three letters got cut off. It worked for me.
A table file is used to help you use a hex editor. If go to
The PokéCommunity Forums > Creative Discussion > Emulation > ROM hacking > [READ] Frequently Asked Question
Find the question Q. Where do I get a Table file for the English Pokémon Advance games?There is a link to a place where you can get one.

[Gold Tom]

I need to know the offset for Lugia's overhead sprite in Fire Red for use with Poketronic.

[Natsu]

Could someone please tell me how to use Pokécry? And is it possible to have Gym Leaders give u different TMs? Thank you soo much!^^

[Short Range]

Can someone tell me how to use APE? I have no idea. Is there a tutorial?

[thethethethe]

When I click on a people event using advance map all these numbers come up on the right hand side. Could someone please explain what all the 4 Unknown's are used for and what the movement one is for?

[Short Range]

You don't really have to worry about the unknowns until you get professional. The movement shows how often the person move I think. Now maybe you can help me with my question? :D

[thethethethe]

Thanks Short Range but I would still like to know what they are for even if I don't understand. To answer your question, I can't. I'm really terible at anything to do with sprites, palletes and anything of any artistic value.

[Short Range]

Thanks anyways. I think the second unknown has something to do with palettes and the first one is when the characters appear in the game. I'm not so sure though. I remember seeing that writen somewhere.

[yifan_lu]

Ok, since no one can answer my last question, heres a new one, what is the unLZ number for the pokemon logo (at the title screen), the emerald version logo, and the picture of professor rowan and the pokemon from the intro (emerald version)?

[furbie22]

on unLZ-GBA how do you put in a sprite someone else made that you copied and pasted off the internet

[Welo9]

I have been using advance map to edit my Leaf Green maps
I wanted to add some maps to the right of Pallet Town
I got everything to work but the border
Everytime you go there the border is messed up
I changed the Border Block and everything
Does anyone know why the border keeps messing up???

[HackMew]

Is there a tool that changes what pokemon appear in the wild for emerald?

Simply open you ROM with Advance Map, choose the map you want to edit and go to the Wild Pokémon view. Edit all the Pokémon as you like and save. You're done.


Is there any way to give/take money from the player character? I want my character to acquire money from something other than trainer battles.

Yes, sure there is.
The givemoney command syntax is the following:

#binary 90 XX XX XX XX YY

XX XX XX XX is a DWord (4-byte) and represents the money quantity (swapped). YY is an unknown byte as far as I know but setting it to 00 won't give problems.


how come the first 3 letter of every pokemon are chopped off?

Remember that you can always use a hex editor wich supports table files...


on unLZ-GBA how do you put in a sprite someone else made that you copied and pasted off the internet

Just import the sprite with unLZ.

[BlackRainbow*]

oh furbie22 and don't forget to index it. Only if anyother people index the sprite you find in internet you don't have to index it

[Diggeh]

Okay, I need major help with my title screen.

This is how it currently looks:

http://img180.imageshack.us/img180/5390/titlescreenv2ar4.png

Now, what I want to do is change the "©2004 GAMEFREAK Inc." into "©2007 PMF Inc."

This is how the "©2004 GAMEFREAK Inc." looks in unLZ:

http://img528.imageshack.us/img528/3502/whatitisdh8.png

And this is how I've put together the replacement:

http://img408.imageshack.us/img408/4240/1121212pmflogozh2.gif

Now, it seems to look like it's working throughout the process...

http://img120.imageshack.us/img120/7343/57180176sj7.png

But, as I finish it up, the title screen is really messed up.

I know I did something wrong (maybe the check boxes), but I need to know what (duh).

P.S. I have and have made tons of backups, so don't give me any "lol your skrewd" stuff. XD
