Simple Questions (SEARCH BEFORE ASKING A QUESTION)

[Deokishisu]

Thank you. I have another question now. When I cross the border to another map, an event from the first map is duplicated. The person then disappears when I walk farther away and reappears when I go back. I don't know what happened... Can this be fixed?

[Glitchfinder]

I have an... interesting question. If I manually expand the number of bytes in a ROM, (say, double them), add data to the new area in the ROM, and then create an ips patch of that ROM, will someone be able to successfully patch that onto the original game's ROM? (For example, if I did it to Firered, would someone be able to do it to patch it to firered and play it?)

Also, I was wondering if anyone had a list of the Hex numbers of all the attacks in the Advanced generation. I can't find that anywhere, even at places with hex numbers for everything else.

It's the same with tilesets, you shouldn't put the events at the sides of the maps when's there's a connection or that will happen.

If you increase the ROM size it won't be changed if you make a patch and patch it on a Fire Red ROM. The changes under 16MB will be applied on the ROM when you patch it.

OE can't edit sprites' sizes so if you want to make the size bigger you have to hex edit.

1. You can use Sappy to edit the music.

2. You can insert tiles with unLZ GBA or Advance Map. It's easier with Advance Map, search for how to insert tiles with AM in the thread.

How do you do that and pallete sprites in a hex editor as i have one but don't know how to use it and if possible a link to a tutorial for how to use a hex editor

Advance Map doesn't have behavior bytes for the blocks.

Palette sprites? To change the size you have to go to the overworld sprite's offset find where the size is and change it. In the OE ini file there's the hero's overworld sprite offset.

So, you're saying that the data after the end of the original ROM won't get patched? If that's true, do you know how I can make it so that the data WILL get added?

ScriptED won't work for me. I try to veiw something's script in Elitemap but it doesn't show anything...

[userpr]

yeah 1)im having problems with rs ball, when ever i try dumping the gfx bank or even look at trainer/pokemon backpicks it says: trainer/pokemon backpics location is not specified in INI. how can i fix this and if its not fixable is there another program that can do this for me.
2) In advance-map whenever i try making a new map it just overwrites already existing maps, so am I doing anything wrong or what?
thats all for now thanks in advance and if it makes any difference im working on emerald.

The thing is... that event was nowhere near where it was duplicated. It wasn't near the edges of the map. (Does 10 tiles away count?) I don't know what to do but edit the map to make the connection farther away from that area and I don't want to do that unless neccessary. Is there any way it can be fixed?

Put the ROM in the same directory as Elitemap and ScriptEd. That should fix it.

It IS in the same directory.

I downloaded Amplifier 2006 from Scizz's tool site,

It has an option to select English as language.

Everytime I try to select English I get this message:

Run-time error "13"
type mismatch

Any idea what I am doing wrong.

Or how to fix it.

Looks to be a wonderful program, I just can't read German.

You have to put VB runtime in the same folder.

Some scripts won't load with ScriptED. Messages and short scripts do.

1. The pkmn backpics should have been extracted, you can't extract trainer backpics.

2. Create a new map with Advance Map and finish it. Then choose "Insert" and insert it in a new spot.

Can you show me a screenshot of the duplicated event?
In the top and bottom edges 5 blocks and left and right edges 7 blocks.

Hi, I'm new at ROM Hacking and just have a couple of quick questions which have probably been answered dozens of times but I cannot find the answers most likely because their is so much to look through.

1. How do you create new pokemon sprites, both for in battle and full image.
2. How do you add the sprites into the game.

Sorry if this has been answered many times and I am just a nuisance, but I have taught myself how to use advanced map and a few others pretty effectively and have learnt from what i have read so I appreciate it.
