Tool: HackMew's Tools Factory [A-Ptch released]

[BryanDX]

hackmew your tools are great even to I who is new to hacking can use them.

 

[Kindo]

hi nice tools they work good!

 

[0m3GA ARS3NAL]

Thanks,but I found out how.I downloaded PET,changed a class name,loaded the rom in A-TRAINER and it showed up as the new class.

Yes, PET works for that, but I don't use it since it is a bit buggy...

 

[Pokepal17]

I have a suggestion for Overworld Editor RE.

When you import a sprite the palettes gets indexed into the palettes in the same position, so if I had a sprite with a background colour of red and I imported into a pal with a backgorund colour of pink, the red would become pink.

So could you please make it that you have a choice between doing that or having the palettes match the closest colours in the palette, when a sprite is imported?

 

[0m3GA ARS3NAL]

I STILL think HackMew needs to fix the Screen Resolution problem with Overworld Editor RE... Screen resolution is set to 1024x768, when I use overworld editor RE, it has a retarded Image display glitch, I posted a screenshot a while ago in this thread, and HackMew knows what I am talking about...

 

[mattattack]

Hackmew I use your tools and I have to say this... YOU. ARE. GOD your tools are amazing XSE, FSF, A-trainer. I can't wait until your next tools come out like the item changer and more. I bet you your doing so good at this you might even make a map editing program for D/P or the advance generation games and I wouldn't be suprised.

 

[Skara]

Cheers!! :D I haven't got ALL the tools yet but I've used some!!

[Perri Lightfoot]

I'm getting an A-Trainer error that's driving me insane...I did search the thread and saw that others had the problem, but the solution given seems to only apply to Vista; and I'm using Windows XP. Basically, every time I load a ROM (any ROM) in A-Trainer, I get a message telling me "Runtime Error '9': Subscript out of range" and then the program force-quits. I've been making changes to the display font to try and fix it; but it seems that I may just be making things worse, rather than better. Does anyone know how to resolve the problem for XP users?

 

[Pokemon12345678901]

Can you make a way with Advance Trainer where you can make new trainer classes or at least replace some.

 

[Bralucas]

If you need/want

Hi Hackmew,
If you need or want i could help you translate to Portuguese and/or Croatian
A tua disposizione. :)

 

[Alpha_Spike]

Hey great tools. I was just wondering if there is any Trainer editor that allows you to know the location of the trainer and change it? That would come in real handy for some ideas I have.

 

[YeahVeryeah]

Uh.. just move the trainer in advance map. ._.

Heck, I started hacking a couple days ago and I already know that :\

 

[dukecrescentlovevia .]

heyya , umm , HackMew , ,
i wanna hack emerald rom , what is the most important tool of all ?

 

[Alpha_Spike]

Uh.. just move the trainer in advance map. ._.

Heck, I started hacking a couple days ago and I already know that :\

I know how to do that but what I'm meaning is a tool in which you can locate a specific trainer from a specific spot and edit it instead of trying to figure out which one is which. The tools use names sometimes but for the ones where they don't you have to guess if its that trainer. Also it would be nice to be able to insert a trainer of your own creation and keep all other trainers.

 

[woesofthenorm]

I love all your hacking tools. They work like a dream for me. Thank you so much!! You're very skilled!

 

[Kyouya]

when are the next ones being realeased

 

[Zeffy]

i really use all of HackMew's tools. For me those tools are one of the best.

 

[HackMew]

Answering machine mode: ON
Initializing...

nice tools, i downloaded the starter editor once, but i never new u made it up, its cool!!!!

Thanks ^^

Hey, HackMew, have you fixed that problem with APE that means it won't search for palettes properly? I need it about now. xD

Well, you should tell me more details about it then.

Sorry for my missed location, and misunderstanding, it worked, thank you. And thanks for fixing the script, an added bonus. I'm starting to understand XSE now, mucho gratias.

You're welcome.

gosh this is like a toybox to me. I've been using almost all the tools over and over again to enhance my games here and there.
I couldn't have done that without your help. Thanks so much for so many wonderfull tools!

sy,
Kentai

You're welcome :)

First of all, thank you so much for your tools, I don't know what I'd do without them. (Just like nearly every other ROM hacker on the site.)

Second, is your Comprehensive Scripting Guide for XSE available online anywhere? I'm using XSE through Darwine on a Mac, and it says that I need to download Gecko to get it to work, and gives me a link to install. The Gecko installer doesn't work, so I can't access the guide. All I get is a message that says "HTML rendering is currently disabled." Is there any other way I could access the guide?

(Alternatively, if there are any tutorials anywhere that describe how to use wildbattle2 and what its fourth parameter does, that would make me just as happy. But it wouldn't be as useful in the long term.)

Well, why not try googling? I'm pretty sure that with little or no effort you will be able to enjoy the guide on your Mac.

First off, I would like to thank you sincerely for these great tools. They are indeed very helpful. Though I still have this question with A-Trainer. I'm still wondering how to give certain trainers their own battle theme in Fire Red. How do you change it?

Right now you can't. Just like you can't add more trainer pictures. I'm currently doing research on those.

I have Windows XP and have tried downloading Overworld Editor from everywhere trying to make it work. No matter what I do, put it in the folder with the roms, download it to the desktop, everything! It never works. Alll I get is this message that says:

Error 63 (Bad record number) in procedure LoadSpriteStructure of frmOverworldEditor

Make sure you:

• are using latest version
• extracted all the files

If it still doesn't work, try using another ROM.

The tools so far are really nice. Just now, I've thought of something;
a tool.

Ever inserted a script to a offset, and the script doen't work? Well with the Offset Clearer, you can fix this! All you do, is, enter the offset you want to clear, and this tool does it for you! No more going to HEX editors, wasting time, with just one click, you can fix your problem.

This could be a feature in Free Space Finder.

Good luck with more tools!

Well... sorry if say it but you're suggestions is useless. There are already some directives in XSE that can do exactly what you suggested. Check the guide for further details.

Oh hack mew
you are my got xD
your tools are the best
i been waiting for more
bye

He he, thanks.

Um, sorry if this has been asked before, but is there an emerald-compatible version of A-Text?
​

A-Text is compatible with all the Advance ROMs. And that includes Emerald too. Don't forget I didn't make A-Text, so you better ask in the Simple Questions thread next time.

HackMew you are the master *BOWS* i just wish i wasnt using wii internet channel.

Too generous :)

some questions:
1.In advance trainer I gave roxane an aron to make her stronger at the match itself and when the match started she gave him a potion that hurt him insted of attacking me,do you know why?
2.In advance trainer I want to add more trainers by changing the amount of them,how can I add this to emmerald,I mean where to place the trainer,how to give him script etc....
3.UNLZ is not working very good for me,it never shows me the pokemon picture it just shows some messed picture of nothing,is that works on emerald?
4.I know that after celebi there are like 25 ??? pokemons and I want to change them into 4th generation pokemons,is that possible?,because when somebody fought with an ??? pokemon he lost at the match,but another person did what I said at the beginning of the question in his hacked game...
5.How can I use sprites from firered on my emerald?
I know it's kinda a lot but I'll be very happy if you'll help me

1. I have no idea why that should happen o.O Try doing the same with a clean ROM and see what happens.
2 . You can place the trainer wherever you want.
3. unLZ works fine even with Emerald. Make sure you're not using a Deep Scan.
4. Forget those Pokémon. Expanding the Pokémon amount is a complex thing, and using those 25 slots is no good, really.
5. You just extract them from FireRed and then you import them into Emerald.

I love you.... so much.
you've got some skills with VB.
great one :D

Thanks :D

I guess I should say...

When i click "show content" for any of the (except for APE) it does not do anything

I dunno why it happens, I would suggest using another browser. It's working perfectly for me. Don't forget you can still use my website (link in sig) to download them.

THX!! this will help me alot on my opal version!!!<------(working on name)

You're welcome ^-^

:/ I'm having a hard time figuring out how to work A-Trainer XD

Oh, my... Are you sure your monitor wasn't turned off? XDD
Seriously, what problems are you having with it?

could be that they've been removed or we need to get more post count

Absolutely not. They aren't removed nor you need more post count. Just get a better browser, or download the tools from the official website.

hi. your programs are great! a question or two thoguh: how do i use RHEA? could yo perhaps explainth different sections? and do you know a program that allows you to change your pesrons battle sprite (i.e when your battle seeing a pokemon for the first time). thanks for that, and great overworld spriter . helped me alot.

The different sections are the different sections of your ROM header. Usually you're interested in chaging the title and/or game code.

I did a bit of testing with the camera and I think I you should change the description of the command getplayerpos in XSE, because it doesn't get the x/y position of the player, it gets the x/y position of the tile the camera is focused on.

Also, here is some stuff you can add to the guide (you probably know what these specials do but if you forgot, here's a reminder).

Special 0xCD - activates the safari-zone steps.
Special 0xCE - deactivates the safari-sone steps.

Finally, what does changing the value of the trainer music for a trainer do in A-Trainer? Does it play a different music or change the pitch or the tempo of the music?

The trainer music you can change with A-Trainer is the one that's played as soon as you meet the trainer. Also, thanks for the stuff.

Hello, guyz , every1s saying how great the programs are but HOW do i download them ? When i click show content nothing happens

This has been answered already. Look above.

Hey guys... this is my first post!!

Just a warning: if you use A-Starter to change your starter to someone who's not yet in your Pokedex, then it won't be able to evolve. For example, I changed my starter to Larvitar (awesome) which worked fine at first, but he won't evolve until I get the expanded Pokedex.

Perhaps that should go in the disclaimer...

Well, that's just how the game works. I guess everyone should know that already.

These tools are amazing!
Keep up the gorrrrrrrrrrrrrgeous work HackMew :)

Thankies :)

Woah cool tools dude rep +1

Thanks you too ;)

I don't know how I could live without these tools. They rock!!! Great work.

I won't stop saying "thanks" ^^

In a-trainer, can you change the trainers class name to something custom,for example change TUBER to SAGE?

Yes. Just wait for the next beta. You can change it already, but a bug prevents you from actually saving the changes. Sorry for the inconvenience.

EDIT: Sry for double-post

New around the community, guess it's thanks to these tools and HackMew. ^^

Well, I haven't had much time to play around with the tools yet, so I won't start n00bing about how to use them, however, it seems like choosing Pigdeot or Mew with Advance Starter will change to Pigdeotto or Mewtwo (So, POKéMON which names consist entirely of letters another POKéMON start with, it will change to that POKéMON). Just kick me in the face if I'm messing up and doing something wrong, just wanted to say this, currently, I'm using an older version (v1.2.75) which "fixes" this, however, using something old and un-updated seems troublesome to me.
btw, I'm clearly a FireRed/LeafGreen player/hacker, at least at the time, it's the only POKéMON games I haven't played on my GBA.

Oh yeah, btw I would like to help translating into Danish if you want ^^

And of course... Freakin awesome job! XP

Yeah, that bug was reported already a while ago. Didn't have time yet to fix it :'(
Thanks for the compliments anyway.

infinate
And RBC file can have an infinite amount of lines, so long as you don't overwrite your hard-drive...
Now inserting the Script, you have to have it the same amount of free space in your ROM... lol

LOL

Thanks,but I found out how.I downloaded PET,changed a class name,loaded the rom in A-TRAINER and it showed up as the new class.

Avoid using PET, please. Just wait for next A-Trainer version ;)

I have to say if you really did make these you are a god for hackers.

I really did make those, I swear :P

you can make this function in In - Trainer shinys + when you choissiez the pokemon of the handler is able to put them in mode shinys

Making trainer Pokémon shiny is pretty much troublesome, and probably not even worth it.

HackMew your tools are great even to I who is new to hacking can use them.

Thankz-

hi nice tools they work good!

Thaanks.

Yes, PET works for that, but I don't use it since it is a bit buggy...

A bit too much :P

I have a suggestion for Overworld Editor RE.

When you import a sprite the palettes gets indexed into the palettes in the same position, so if I had a sprite with a background colour of red and I imported into a pal with a backgorund colour of pink, the red would become pink.

So could you please make it that you have a choice between doing that or having the palettes match the closest colours in the palette, when a sprite is imported?

Oh, sure that's a nice idea. Count on that for next OWE! ;)

I STILL think HackMew needs to fix the Screen Resolution problem with Overworld Editor RE... Screen resolution is set to 1024x768, when I use overworld editor RE, it has a retarded Image display glitch, I posted a screenshot a while ago in this thread, and HackMew knows what I am talking about...

Yeah, definitely. Sadly I can't reproduce the bug, so I'll need your help.

HackMew I use your tools and I have to say this... YOU. ARE. GOD your tools are amazing XSE, FSF, A-trainer. I can't wait until your next tools come out like the item changer and more. I bet you your doing so good at this you might even make a map editing program for D/P or the advance generation games and I wouldn't be suprised.

Geez, thank you :)

Better some than nothing, uh? XD

Oh, well... See my PM.

Can you make a way with Advance Trainer where you can make new trainer classes or at least replace some.

You can already replace them, but there's a bug which won't let you save the changes. Please be patient.

Hi HackMew,
If you need or want i could help you translate to Portuguese and/or Croatian
A tua disposizione. :)

Thanks, any help is appreciated. Well, what's your mother tongue?

Hey great tools. I was just wondering if there is any Trainer editor that allows you to know the location of the trainer and change it? That would come in real handy for some ideas I have.

There isn't any. Keep in mind the trainer could be just ANYWHERE in the ROM.

heyya , umm , HackMew , ,
i wanna hack emerald rom , what is the most important tool of all ?

All tools are more or less important, especially XSE.

I know how to do that but what I'm meaning is a tool in which you can locate a specific trainer from a specific spot and edit it instead of trying to figure out which one is which. The tools use names sometimes but for the ones where they don't you have to guess if its that trainer. Also it would be nice to be able to insert a trainer of your own creation and keep all other trainers.

You can already insert your own trainers keeping the old one. That's what the trainer amount editor is for. Regarding the location... there's no way to actually tell where a trainer is. First I would need to scan ALL of the scripts of ALL the maps looking for a trainer battle script related to the trainer. Then I would need to get the actual position... Quite complicated.

I love all your hacking tools. They work like a dream for me. Thank you so much!! You're very skilled!

Thanks! :)

when are the next ones being realeased

When people like you stop askiing LOL
Well, I have no idea. When I get time, eventually.

i really use all of HackMew's tools. For me those tools are one of the best.

Thank you :D


TO ALL: AT THE MOMENT I'M DAMN BUSY, BUT UPDATES WILL COME AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. I ALREADY PLANNED SOME FSF/A-TRAINER/XSE/A-STARTER/ETC. UPDATES, NOT TO SAY THE NEW TOOLS. OH, YEAH SOME NEW USERBARS TOO. ALSO, I'LL BE POSTING SOME VIDEOS OF A FEW THINGS I'VE BEEN WORKING ON SO FAR.
WANT TO SHOW YOUR APPRECIATION FOR MY TOOLS? THEN KEEP TESTING THEM, GIVING SUGGESTIONS, GIVE CREDITS IN YOUR HACK, PUT USERBARS IN YOUR SIG, TELL YOUR FRIENDS ABOUT THEM. TRANSLATING THEM IS ALSO GOOD, OF COURSE. IF THE TOOLS ARE GOOD, THAT'S ALSO BECAUSE THEY'RE SUPPORTED. DON'T FORGET IT FOLKS!

Sorry for the caps, but I wanted to make it noticeable ;P

 

[hrdlo519]
