Send me the original script you used, or rather, post it.

graphicsturtle123 · Sep 7, 2013

This is what it should be:

#dyn 0x740001
#org 0x81565C
'-----------------------------------
lockall
checkflag 0x253
if true jump 0x87405A ' Flag is set
if false jump 0x87409E
setflag 0x251
waitbutton
releaseall
end

#org 0x87405A

showmsg
waitbutton
fadescreen FADEOUT_WHITE
closemsg
disappear 0x3
setflag 0x251
fadescreen FADEIN_WHITE
releaseall
end

#org 0x87409E
message 0x87409B
showmsg
waitbutton
release
end

#org 0x87409B
= I'm sorry, it is too dangerous up ahead\pwithout a POKe\MON, maybe you could borrow one?

#org 0x87402A
= Recent POK\eMON attacks mean that it \is now too dangerous for people to travel alone[.]

Well, I took a look at your script, and rewrote it:

Code:

#dyn 0x740000
#org @main
checkflag 0x253
if == jump @1
jump @2

#org @1
lock
faceplayer
message @3
callstd MSG_NORMAL
fadescreen FADEOUT_BLACK
disappear 0x3
fadescreen FADEIN_BLACK
setflag 0x251
release
end 

#org @2
lock
faceplayer
message @4
callstd MSG_NORMAL
release
end

#org @3
= You may proceed.

#org @4 
= I'm sorry, but it's too dangerous\nup ahead without a Pok\emon. Maybe\lyou could borrow one?

You don't need to use if twice, and lockall and releaseall should only be used when movement is involved (although it does not have a major effect on the script). Showmsg and waitbutton are also unnecessary, unless it's a level script (or something elaborate), so use callstd. Modify the script to your needs, and feel free to ask if you have any further questions/problems.

Thank you so much! I am new to PKSV so I make stupid mistakes...

I'm making a road blocked script and thanks to manadhon I have made half of it, but now I need to make the person script. Can anyone help? This is the first script that manahdon made:
#org 0x8740000
'-----------------------------------
#raw 0xFF
checkflag 0x253
if true jump 0x874000F ' Flag is set
jump 0x8740024

#org 0x874000F
'-----------------------------------
lock
faceplayer
message 0x874002F ' You may proceed.
callstd MSG_LOCK ' Built-in lock command
fadescreen FADEOUT_BLACK
disappear 0x3
fadescreen FADEIN_BLACK
setflag 0x251
release
end

#org 0x8740024
'-----------------------------------
lock
faceplayer
message 0x8740040 ' I'm sorry, but it's ...
callstd MSG_LOCK ' Built-in lock command
release
end

#org 0x874002F
= You may proceed.

#org 0x8740040
= I'm sorry, but it's too dangerous\nup ahead without a Pok\emon. Maybe\lyou could borrow one?

Can someone please help?

graphicsturtle123 · Sep 12, 2013

This is what my script should be:

#dyn 0x740002

#org @start
lock
faceplayer
msgbox @text ' ????: So, Whatdaya say? /pWant this rare POK\eMON or not?
callstd MSG_YESNO
if true jump @givetorchic
if false jump @no
end

#org @givetorchic
checkflag 0x250
if 0x1 jump :end
setflag FR_POKEMON
addpokemon TORCHIC 0x5 NONE 0 0 0
setflag 0x250
storepokemon 0 TORCHIC
message @get-msg
fanfare 0x101
showmsg

message @yes
:end
release
end

#org @no
message @no
release
end

#org @noroom-msg
= You don't have enough room in your party.

#org @get-msg
= You got a \v\h02!

#org @speech
= ????: So, Whatdaya say? /pWant this rare POK\eMON or not?

#org @yes
= ????: I picked this POK\eMON up in /pHOENN[.] Don't worry I didn't /nsteal it[.]/p Maybe I'll see you around[.]

#org @no
= ????: Hmph[.] /pYou do know you're missing out /non the opportunity of a lifetime?

But when I open it on advance map it looks like this:

#org 0x8740002
'-----------------------------------
checkflag 0x250
if true jump 0x874003B ' Flag is set
setflag FR_POKEMON

release
end

#org 0x874003B

end

end

#org 0x8740071
= You got a \v\h02!

#org 0x8740047
= You don't have enough room in your party.

What is wrong?
Please help...

Manadhon to the rescue again.

Rewritten and tested:

Code:

#dyn 0x740002
#org @main
lock
faceplayer
checkflag FR_POKEMON
if == jump @End
message @Text 
callstd MSG_YESNO
compare LASTRESULT YES
if == jump @Give_Torchic
jump @No

#org @No
message @Nope
callstd MSG_NORMAL
release
end 

#org @Give_Torchic
countpokemon
compare LASTRESULT 0x6
if < call @Give
message @Room
callstd MSG_NORMAL
release
end

#org @Give
addpokemon TORCHIC 5 NONE 0 0 0
fanfare 0x101
message @Get_Msg
callstd MSG_NOCLOSE
waitfanfare
closemsg
message @Nikname
callstd MSG_YESNO
compare LASTRESULT YES
if == call @Yes
setflag FR_POKEMON
release
end

#org @End
message @Around
callstd MSG_NORMAL
release
end

#org @Yes
fadescreen FADEOUT_BLACK
special NAME_POKEMON
waitspecial
setflag FR_POKEMON
return

#org @Text
= ????: Hey, kid! I got this\nrare Pok\emon, and, well,\ldo you want it?

#org @Nope
= ????: Hmph...\pI hope you know you're missing\nout on the chance of a lifetime.

#org @Room
= ????: What, you don't even have\nroom? Come back when you do.

#org @Around
= ????: I got that in Hoenn,\nso don't worry about me stealing\lit or anything. Maybe I'll see\lyou around.

#org @Get_Msg
= \v\h01 recieved a Torchic!

#org @Nikname
= Would you like to give\nTorchic a nickname?

To start off, make sure your checkflag is at the beginning of the script. Instead of using if twice, use compare LASTRESULT for yes (or no) and jump for the opposite. Don't use :end unless you have a message prepared. Otherwise, jump to another offset (like myself).
The storepokemon command is unnecessary, since you're only using one Pokemon. The showmsg and waitbutton are unnecessary as well, just use callstd. Lastly, there was no pointer to noroom-msg.

Modify the script to your needs, and feel free to ask if you have any further questions and/or problems.

manadhon · Sep 18, 2013

I'm going to address both of you:

Graphicsturtle123: Send me the script, and I'll help you

Superluke: use Advance Map for map values. If that doesn't help, contact me.

So I've been working on scripting Leaf green and I can't find the offset for the champion battle, I want to edit his text but I just can't find the offset anywhere.

I don't know if this helps. Go to advance map, go the the place where the champion is, click the champion, copy the offset or open offset.

The Void · Apr 22, 2014

Alright, so I updated this thing, and added two more tutorials. Any and all questions are always welcome.

RuFF · Jun 24, 2014

can you give us a list of commands in pksv and how do i use reappear and disappear
because when i used the disappear it reappears and when i used reappear it wont appear

AkameTheBulbasaur · Jun 24, 2014

can you give us a list of commands in pksv and how do i use reappear and disappear
because when i used the disappear it reappears and when i used reappear it wont appear

I don't know too much about the "reappear" command, but I can help you with "disappear."

When you want a sprite on the map to disappear after a certain event, like being talked to, you need to know the Person Event Number. You can find this by going on Advancemap, clicking the events tab and clicking the person event in question. If you look to the right you'll see a list of information. The Person Event Number should be displayed underneath the "delete event" button.

Once you have that, you need to write the script. For the disappearing part, I usually go with this:

Fadescreen FADEOUT_BLACK
disappear 0x(Person Event Number)
fadescreed FADEIN_BLACK

I do this because it looks better in game, but the fade screens aren't too important. The next thing you need to do is make the event stay gone once it disappears. For that, you'll need to set a flag.

setflag 0x###

That number can be anything, just remember to write it down because that number can't be used for any other flag. After you've set the flag, just click on the Person Event you want to disappear and find the Person ID. It should be close to the "open script" button. Set the person ID to the number of the flag you set and BOOM! Your person should stay gone after the script ends.

I'm sorry I can't help you with reappearing, but my guess is that it would use the same concepts at disappear.

Hey I'm currently making a rom hack of fire red and I've followed all your instructions on making a person give you the national dex and I can't get them to do anything but tell me they're gonna give me the dex... They never give it to me though. Please email me [email protected]. I really need to have national dex for my rom hack since I have so many pokes that won't evolve
Thanks!
Ps
Please messege me back I need you bad bro I've googled this for like two wks now and no luck until I ran upon your page... But still haven't fully got it down

WAFFAHOUSE · Aug 14, 2014

The Void said:
Well, that's easy as well.

Just use this code:

Code:

[FONT="Courier New"]special FR_NATIONAL_DEX[/FONT]

You can use that after your message saying that you'll upgrade his/her Pokedex. Example:

Code:

#dyn 0x740000 #org @main lock faceplayer message @upgradepokedex callstd MSG_NORMAL special FR_NATIONAL_DEX release end #org @upgradepokedex = I'll upgrade your Pokedex for you.

Can you please elaborate. Is this a script generator thing? If so. Which steps do I take to get this done? Been trying for weeks
