Awesome tutorial, I've being reading it yesterday... but how do you put the script into the rom (Windows XP)?
If you use ScriptED, there's no problem doing it. You need to set an option to show file's extension (Open some folder - best My Documents - Tools-> Folder options ->Appearance - I think - and there should be checkbox "Hide extensions of registered filetype". Uncheck it.)
Now, back to your ScriptED window and click on the Compile button. There will pop a browse dialog. Find your ROM and doubleclick it. There will pop a Notepad window with a script log, you should check if it didn't find any errors there.
Now, when it's written there, you need to open AdvanceMap. Open the map where you want your event be put in, click on the sprite or trigger and now, on the right side, there should be a sidebar. Find the box labeled Script offset. Write there $ followed by the script's offset number (e.g. $800000). Save your ROM, open it in VBA and test it.
If it goes okay, congrats. If not, post a screenie.
This is a great tutorial, but can you give a working example of a Yes/No script? For some reason, my script just leaves the question on the screen, and nothing happens. Here's my script so you can see what's wrong with it:
This is just a test to see if I can get it to work. Thanks in advance! :)
You got this fixed by Madridista, and thanks for comment.
Just fixed the offsets...
The offset should have at least 100 between each other...
Your statmemnt is partly fine, mainly for short scripts. You won't need to do this always... cause when HackMew's XSE
(a script editor that uses same language as ScriptED, but much better) will be released, you wil be amazed how easy will scripting be with dynamic offsets
(I know Pokéscript already has that, but the dynamic offset ipmlementation will be better over here, and mainly, you will be able to easily use ScriptED language used in this guide).
