[ARCHIVE] Simple Questions (SEARCH BEFORE ASKING A QUESTION)

Thingy32 hates me.
Hex Workshop is insane.
TranslationStation doesn't work right.
Hexposure crashes when you try to make it read a GBA file ('cos it's too old).

I already uninstalled HW and TS, so here's a question for Thingy32:
Could someone please help me figure out how to change the text in FireRed? I've got the Rom, and a table, and I found the offset, but when I select and edit the text I want to edit, it doesn't show up.

If you can't answer me there, then please help me find a better hex editor?

Does anyone know where I can find the main hero from Pokemon Colosseum FireRed Style sprites? I need his overworld and his battle sprite.

Where can I download advance battle that works with firered? If not, then what can I download that works like advance battle that works for firered?

When you select "write to rom" select the boxes "Export image", "Export Pallet" and "automaticly fix pointers". Make sure that "Auto abort if new data is bigger" is not selected.

for some reason whenever i try to play a gbc rom, patched or unpatched,(i use the newest vba) emulator the screen turns black, nothing happens, then if i click the menu at the top turns white and the vba freezes. Can some on help me?

Seems to me like a bad rom. Try downloading a new one. Otherwise, your computer may be either too old, or too full to run the program properly.

Let me make myself clear. In advance map, I want to change the music, but the music is in some weird language like instead it saying pallet town, it says alabastia, or something like that. How do I change it to english?

Um....I don't think that's quite the kind of questions that are asked here usually. This is more for technical help, read the first post in this discussion to get a better idea. But even if it is a valid question, I do not know.

As always, I hope it helps!

OK sorry about that. I'll just go and try to make my own I guess. :P

Of course you can't, it isn't a text that's normally included in a clean ROM.

linkandzelda said:

exactly as it says or it wont find it it. i found it i just cant make it longer

Click to expand...

Did you make a script for those messages, isn't it?
If so, just make the text longer and recompile the script after cleaning the old one. Weird things could happen if you just recompile the text over the old one without clearing it first :P

Which one? Be more detailed...
Also, don't ask the same question more than once. It won't help you and it will just bother the people that could answer you.

I think that the Script Request/Sharing/Discussion is a better place to ask ;)

Why Hex Workshop should be insane? :P
BTW, have you ever tried Translhextion?

IHMO unchecking the "Auto abort" option is never a really good solution.

i edited the original leaf green to make the text longer but my rom broke so i started again on fire red and the text wasnt listed so i serched for it and found it and saved it and tried to edit it but could not. its there on a clean rom. gary says it when he takes his pokemon. I'll take this one then! you have to serach for it. ive just found it in 10 seconds. i cant script it again because its part of the pokeball script and i cant rescript that.

Oh I didn't mean the text of G/S/C I meant the text with Gary. O.o

I have a few questions:
I have a question:
Where can I find some basic scripting tutorials(very basic,how to delete events,how to add events etc...)
I'm really new at hacking so I need some very basic tutorials that are easy to understand.
(Cause right now I don't understand a thing about scripting)

Need Help

Hi, I Have Made A Few Hacks Before But When I Look At Peoples Hacks On The Showcase They Are All Amazing And Really Creative.

Basically What I Need Is Someone With Msn Who Can Talk Me Throught The Basics Of Advancemap, And Other Programs To Make My Hacks Repectable. This Would Really Help. If You Do Have The Time Could You Please Add Me On [email protected]

Does someone have a link or just a copy of a FireRed ROM that can save after you defeat the Pokémon League? I need one, otherwise I can't start working on my hack :(

~Cya, UnitRico

Please don't tell me you just asked for a rom... That's like the #1 "no-no" in this forum. However, if you are looking for a patch for your rom, look here please: http://www.pkmncommunity.com/showthread.php?t=77503. It's the save-file exchange thread; if it's anywhere, it's most likely there.

maybe i can ask here,

umm so i was looking for that one hack where you can go into the past and future, but i cant find it, i tried searching too. im sorry if this isnt detailed enough

Darkrai64 said:

Does anyone know how to change your sprite into some one else like on pokemon orange, just before a battle, it shows the back of your sprite and on your trainer card, it shows your sprite. How do I change it?

Sorry, this is not really the kind of question asked here. Suitable questions would be along the lines of "How to change pallets" or "what is the flag for the 6th gym leader". Also, in my duration in this forum there have been many hacks that deal with time travel...

Hope it helped!

1) Hiya, I was wondering if it was possible to turn any map i wanted into a "Safari Zone" of sorts.

2) Is there a way to modify the amount of money some one starts off with?

A-text says its missing a file named comdlg32.exc

Oh, that's incredibly easy to fix! But do you mean "Comdlg32.oxc"? Although before I continue, I need to know what system you run, so that I may tell you EXACTLY where to put the file to make it work.

1. Just use the Safari Zone tileset, in FR just go to "Header View" make Tileset 1 "0" and make Tileset 2 "8" using AdvanceMap.

2. I am sure that the amount of money can be changed by scripting or hex editting, if hex just search for the starting value of cash.

1. Is there a way to do it with out using the safari zone tiles?/Does it have to be the specific safari zone combination or can it be a mix?

2. Thanks! :D
