[Scripting] RaiRai-kun's XSE Tutorial [Updated Big-Time!]

[Giratina the master]

Whats a pointer i made the script but it tells me i need a pointer

[• Angie •]

this tut0rial surely helped me~

- a n g i e : D

[Manipulation]

Mate this isn't the script help thread. Ask there xD

[nate443556]

special 0x16F

flag for the national dex for firered

[NTA]

msgbox @text2 0x6
where can i find the other pointers like 0x5 and 0x6?

[Vince_27]

It's a very good scripting tutorial.
Thanks a lot, it help me because I'm a scripter too.

[HackMew]

Now I see where bad scripting knowledge come from...

#org @start
lock
faceplayer
msgbox @yesno 0x5
if 0x1 goto @yes
if 0x0 goto @no
release
end

That's wrong and won't work. You can't use two ifs like that and there's not even a compare so the two ifs are pointless anyway. Also, some parts of the tutorial aren't updated for the newest XSE yet. So I would suggest the author fixing everything so people will have less problem with scripting. Thanks in advance.

as usual i probly over looked something, but it saves as a seperate file, right, so how does it get on the rom? or does it save to .XXX file and add script to rom?

You compile the script into the rom, you save it to make a backup or to work on the script later.

Uhm, first of all, you'd change the starting map, and put your scripts in the map for the dream, then you'd warp the player to the original starting map. I guess.

There's a parameter in the command wildbattle. XSE will help you if you have the latest XSE.

I'm not even sure what the heck you're talking about. If you mean compiling scripts, just click the gear button.

You use a tool by HackMew call Starting Map Changer.

I'll do my best to update everything, HackMew. I know most of the things are wrong.

When you put
msgbox @yesno 0x5

msgbox @yesno
boxset 0x5

On the space put

Unknown change 0000
to 0300

Var Number change 0000
to 4050

msgbox @yesno 0x5 is the updated XSE command now...
The one with boxsets is an old version of XSE.
