Well when i did it that way first the compiler wasn't working - apparently you can't use more than 15 move calls at once? becuase when i changed it it compiled easily- and is this XSE and application? or just a different form of scripting? becuase i found out that none of my own script boxes work - when i step on them nothing happens.


((Also completely unrelated note - if i use PKSV will i be able to edit the scripts that are already in the game? say like how when you get out of the car and your mom comes out of the door- would it be possible to edit her script so that she i dont know spins around a runs back in side? what she does int important just if its possible?))

I made a script for Brendan in a cave in Pokemon FireRed. According to him he was there because of a rare Pokemon. He then engages the player in a Pokemon battle. After the player defeats him, Brendan says a few stuff about how strong the player is then an earthquake occurs. He then says that it must be coming from downstairs and walks towards a ladder leading downstairs.

Spoiler:


I was able to compile this and get the offset but for some reason when I tested it on the game, the game just hangs... Can you tell me why? Please do tell me what's wrong with my script. I've just began scripting and I don't know much yet...

So I'll need to adjust the script as if the trainer were a Gym Leader, which allows you to rebattle them again after losing?

Yes, that is one way how to do it =)

I'm amazed how your ROM could swallow this script O_o
But let me ask you something... are you using XSE? If yes, what version.
Because your movement commands are pretty weird... you know you cannot write what you want person to do, you must write commands in form of e.g. #raw 0xFE (which is End Movement command).
I'd suggest you to check diegoisawesome's scripting tutorial and movement part, it surely gives you the hang of it =)

You see, I think that XSE is the best scripting program there's out there (yes, it is an application.)
When you download XSE, tutorials, item and pokemon hex codes comes with it, and you'll also be able to read and edit scripts that are already in the game through XSE.
I would highly recommend that you download it.
I think you can find it in HackMew's toolbox (if the download link works now)

I found out that the general questions thread wasn't where I was supposed to post.

I've been trying to give the pokedex and pokemon menu to the player but it's not working.
My script;
#org $script
lock
faceplayer
checkflag 0x1200
if 0x01 goto $done
message $talk
$talk 1 = I got you an Eevee for your\n birthday. Be responsible!
boxset 6
givepokemon 133 5 0x8B
setflag 0x1200
setflag FR_PKMNMENU
setflag FR_POKEDEX
applymovement 1 $move
$move 1 ; #binary 0x12 0xFE
pausemove 0x0000

#org $done
message $bye
$bye 1 = Have fun on your advenuture!
boxset 6
release
end

I used Poket Script.

Like I posted on the the simple questions thread, you should try and change FR_PKMNMENU to 0x828 and FR_POKEDEX to 0x829.

Hmm, sorry I didnt really take the time to look at this and really focus so this may be wrong, but I believe that since you have a checkflag 0x860 at the beginning and not an if statement that is your problem. At least at first glance.

So like this:
checkflag 0x860
if 0x1 goto @blahh

and I think that should stop it from repeating.

For some reason, the script isn't running when I step on the tile. My var number and value are set correctly in A-Map(though I don't know if or what I need to set the unknowns...), and I have the person ID right.
Code: 
#dynamic 0x800000

#org @start
setvar 0x6000 0x0001
applymovement 0x0 @move1
waitmovement 0x0
msgbox @1 0x2
applymovement 0xFF @move2
waitmovement 0xFF
msgbox @2 0x2
setflag 0x800
givepokemon 0x97 0x64 0x0 0x0 0x0 0x0
fanfare 0x13E
msgbox @3 0x4
waitfanfare
closeonkeypress
msgbox @4 0x2
giveitem 0x1 0x1 MSG_OBTAIN
applymovement 0x0 @move3
waitmovement 0x0
pause 0x20
setmaptile 0x0A 0x0A 0x23D 0x0
setmaptile 0x0A 0x0B 0x245 0x0
setmaptile 0x0A 0x0C 0x24D 0x0
special 0x8E
applymovement 0x0 @move4
waitmovement 0x0
msgbox @5 0x6
release
end

#org @move1
#raw 0x56
#raw 0x08
#raw 0x03
#raw 0xFE

#org @move2
#raw 0x0A
#raw 0x0A
#raw 0x0A
#raw 0x0A
#raw 0xFE

#org @move3
#raw 0x00
#raw 0xFE

#org @move4
#raw 0x09
#raw 0x64
#raw 0xFE

#org @1
= Dad: [player]!\n Over here!

#org @2
= Dad: You've been waiting a long\ntime for this day, haven't\lyou, [player]?\pWell, now the time has come for\nyou to catch your very own\lPok\h1Bmon!\pYou'll need a Pok\h1Bmon to protect\n you in the forest...

#org @3
= [player] obtained Mew!

#org @4
= Dad: When you find the pok\h1Bmon\nyou want, use this, but choose\lwisely!

#org @5

Does anyone know what is wrong with this script? I'm using XSE and Ruby.
Spoiler:

The box won't hide. Or at least, not all of it. Most of it just stays there.

Can you tell us when it resets? Or the circumstances surrounding the reset.

Okay well to start off with a name like the reset bug, I would assume it resets when the script initiates. If the script in the players room, try removing the scripts that you placed there and see if the game starts normally. If it doesn't then the issue isn't with the script. If the game does start normally, then check if the script is in in the exact location where the player starts, which, if I recall correctly, is 0x6 on the X axis and 0x6 on the Y axis. If there's a script there try moving it.

i removed the scripts and the game worked normally (started) and no there arent some scripts on the positon where the hero start(you were right x6y6)
to be sure the sccripts have the fault i guess kinda:( i made the same on a clean fire red rom and there the game worked normally jsut that the script didnt open it played like the normal fire red and i repatched an rom with my ips and did the same and this bug with black screen happened again

hey, i'm the original writer of the script, here's how its layed out:
Spoiler:


this script is just compiled to the rom as a basis to what i'm doing.

then i compile this script and its offset goes to a script tile to the right of the player's start position:
Spoiler:


yes 26D37C is the offset of the first script.

then this one is compiled and goes under the player:
Spoiler:


and this one goes to his left:
Spoiler:


yes the unknow has been set to 0003 and the var number to 4051, and all my script work on these conditions. and the flag 9001 is set to the OW in question's person ID box, and his movement type is hidden so i don't really think its necessary. There is no script where the player starts. and the person event number of the OW in question is 1 which is already in hex.

i also tried this as a level script, and i made one simple script instead of all the others (i did the level script on a new rom of the hack, not the on i already did work on), here's the script:
Spoiler:


i proof read a million times, the script is flawless. and the leve script was followed step by step, and the reset bugs won't allow us to continue. when i compile the script, just when th player is about to appeard in his room, the emulator/game resets.



oh and here's a screeny of where the ow is (the one who will be affected by the script)
