I tried the map thing by using cyclone to edit the title so it can be the EarthBound title screen, which is a placeholder, but it just shows black., no colors. How do I fix this?

whenever you get that error you have to find a free space and copy that number into the top box and click the fix pointers option.

AWESOME!

I've got it all to work. Now I just need to figure out how to change the title.

My Bit Depth is always 24

Followed everything exactly and when I save the image the bit depth is 24. Can anyone help?

It took quite a bit of determination, but I managed to pull this off on my LeafGreen hack even though the values are off.

I have been trying to use this tutorial.
I follow it exactly, but after changing the pokemon, the background turns grey and the Pokemon turns slightly transparent.
I then try to change the background, but nothing happens.
Please help me.

Open your background.PNG at irfanview and choose image->Decrease color depth <Set to 16 colors (4 BPP)> and ok.. that the important.. don't forget to save (original folder) at anywhere you want..

Thanks for this tutorial. I found it easy to follow but I must have went wrong. I only tried to change the Charizard (using the same Latios image you used) and the result was... Different. Any idea what I did wrong? I'm pretty sure I followed accurately :(

Screenshots?

Did you repoint, if it notified you that it was too big? Did you change the pallet right? Try doing it again, you might have messed up somewhere along the way.

I followed Part 1 exactly correct until the point where we test the ROM after saving the new stuff in unLZ. When I tested the ROM this was the result.

What am I doing wrong? How do I fix this?
