Hello there!

Today, I want to present my first tool. I hope you like it ;D



Technical data:
  • Name: Multichoice editor
  • Creator: javi4315 (me xD)
  • Languaje: Español/English
  • version: 1.0
  • Functionality: Fire red
What is Multichoice editor?

Simply, this tool is used to edit the options of fire red's multichoices. Maybe, someone asks: "What is a multichoice?". Okay, this is a multichoice:
Spoiler:


The options of the multichoices can be changed with some Hex editor, but really you like do it? Are you sure? See:
Spoiler:


Have yo changed your mind? xD. Okay, now, using this tool, everything can be summarized in:
Spoiler:


Okay, this is my tool. I am not a professional but I try do something interesting ;D

I mean something. Also, you need XSE by hackmew (or other script editor) to compile the new texts.

Download!

*NOTE: I think it is possible to put direct donwload's links here. If I'm wrong, tell me.

Tutorial

How to change multichoice's options.

With this tool, you can change the options easily.

First, you must open Multichoice editor. Now, go to editor and find a multichoice that you like. For example, I will choose the namber 22, this:

multichoice.png


It has three options (Fresh water, soda pop and exit). Now, you must open XSE and compile the new texts. In my case, I will compile three new texts: Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. So I will compile this in XSE:

#dynamic 0x800000

#org @text1
= Monday

#org @text2
= Tuesday

#org @text3
= Wednesday

XSE should display the offsets. In my case, are this:

800050
800059
800063

As the multichoice has three optiones (in my case), I have only put these offsets in the first three holes in the editor (important: The offsets must be prefixed with 08). So would be:

1. 08800050
2. 08800059
3. 08800063

And only need to click "edit". E voila, multichoice's options are changed:

I commend you on your start on creating a rom hacking tool. But I think you should try incorporating your own text compiler, and the ability to add more slots for mutichoice boxes.

Yeah... but I don't know how to do that sort of thing (text compiler). In fact, I am not very good programming T_T

But I will try to be better, but will be difficult, because I have no tutorial...

You could read the string character by character, match it up in a character array that's order is the same as the character order in pokemon from 00 to FF, and write it's position in the array as a byte into the file. You could also read a string by reading each byte, get the byte's position in the array, and getting the char at that position and adding it into the result string. Tutorials can only get you so far, you also have to get some thinking done on your part.

It'd be really nice to actually know what that error is- it could solve the problem.

When i Download a Net FrameWork from Microsoft and goto the Site.. it says: PAGE NOT FOUND

Then when i download it from another Site like CNET when i install it i always get an Error Message..........

I've looked everywhere for an answer to this, but I haven't been able to find one...I'm getting an "Error 75" when I try to use this tool. It says "Path/File access error, then tells me it has worked correctly, but it hasn't...
