[Mapping] In depth Advance Map tutorial

[Curt_09]

Can you show me how to edit scripts? I choose open script and it's blank... I'm using PokeScript...
So far I haven't been able to do anything except change the maps looks, movement permissions, warps, and connections. Also, the map's name. I would really like to know how to edit the scripts! Thanks.

Is there a way to select multiple blocks to insert?

It is very tedious to select each block for a tree, rather than just selecting the entire tree.

When I go to save my new map, it says: "Filename not valid" and won't save!
It's for FR

Inserting tiles can be tricky. When your making them they have to line up. Also there are some ares in the tilesets that are the same for all the tilesets, like the pokecenter, if you over right one of these ares it can almost ruin your game. Just because the ares blanks doesn;t meant you can make new tiles there. You have to becareful!

really helpful advance map tutorial
One question though
Does anyone know how to make a sprite invisible until my script activates(kind of like Prof.Oak in the game, you can't see him until you step on the special spot and then he walks up to you)
Does the person ID mean anything or is it something I need to do in the script?

The map bank and offset are important because they tell what map to connect to (ie Firered 3 ; 0 is pallet town).

The zero out offfset is used for more advanced connections with effects.

Why cant i put scripts and why does it say tree what do they mean by tree

[neiller]

im not sure if u posted about it or not but since ur tut helped me a lot i was wondering if u could help me with getting Nurse Joy to work. i made it so that the pokecenter only has 1 floor and shes the only npc in there but when i walk up to her all i get is a beeping sound but nothing happens.

[LordRaglan]

okay i've just started having a play with Advance map (see that this is my first post!) and i was playing around with pallet town - i've made a new lab but upon exiting the lab my character is taken to his house front door not the front door of the lab
how do i correct this?

[rednano12]

This guide helped me a lot! Thank you. I just think it might be easier to read if the text was a bit smaller, not as... blue, and the images were rid of the watermark.

@LordRaglan: Make sure your warps are set properly.

[LordRaglan]

ah - its taken me a patetically long time to figure out what i was doing wrong but i've got there

[CollinP]

thank you, this has been a huge help- i have a question though- how do i change people sprites?

[ThunderEmblem]

I use it when im mapping to be honest.

[Attilas]

Well first of all i would like to say hello.I went through the tutorial i knew most of the things but the map script part was interesting probably gonna use it.thanks for your effort.
Now i created a new map.It's a second floor on the hero's character house.Gonna make the dad reasearching on pokemon and probably add some interesting scripts but now i would like to work on mapping as i find it more interesting.
here's the 1st floor where the hero's room is and i made there the swap thingy

and here's the 2nd floor his dad's secret lab.i am thinking of making something like putting a sprite infront or w/e in order to not let the hero get up to his dad until a point of the game. so here's the map.
the warp that takes me the lab but when i want to go back to the hero's room i can't.any ideas?
P.S. i will put the links of the images on my siggy cause the forum won't allow me till i get 15 posts.>.<
well i can't show em in my profile either so just go to my profile and then hobbies.I would really appreciate any help.

[videoman]

Hey there, i am having problems with inserting any map. Here's the problem:
When i insert the Map into a new bank it instead goes to different Map Bank. For example, if make i new map and insert it it will go to the Pallet Town Bank instead of the new bank. Does anyone know how to fix this problem? Can someone please help me out?

Thanks
