dude you save it as whatever wherever it don't matter after you click the screwdriver making an x with the wrench.. and its in the game.if it goes back to the oirigin text then you messed up the script somewhere

[diegoisawesome]

I finally found the reason for the EFCreateErrors I was having!
It's all because I added "1.95" to the folder name. Removed it, and it works fine now!

EDIT: Never mind, it still is temperamental..
Perhaps it's because there's a space in the folder path?

For everyone that seems to be having a problem with the website, I too... am unable to enter the website. It comes up saying that it's not available, and that is more than likely to be due to the fact that the website's server is down wherever the website is hosted on. So I'm sure the website will come back up when Lu-Ho is aware of it. ;)

Yet... still looking forward to the new Advance Map, even though it still is in beta, I'm sure the actual version will be released much later. Not meaning to make everyone feel impatient but it's always best to let anyone take their time in developing their tools. ^^

[LU-HO]

Hello together

The page and dodnload is up again.

I forgot to confirm the no-ip.info links (i have to do each 60 days)

[demondismon]

hey lu-oh i know this is off topic.. but can you show me how to make a programm like a-map?...back on topic can you please get ride of those buttons.. please

[Andrew McKenzie]

To everyone complaining about the buttons, Lu-Ho is never going to remove them unless you actually provide some reasonable expanations as to why they needed to be removed.

Not liking them isn't exactly a valid reason.

[MattII]

I don't know if I'm doing something wrong, but whenever I try to create a map for Emerald it always calls itself LITTLEROOT TOWN, and links its header stuff to Littleroot, which is kind of annoying since it means I'm stuck with tilesets 0 and 1.

[LU-HO]

It is not possible to create new names.
so therefore each map is set to the first NameEntry.
you can choose the name (from the name list) you want in the header tab.

[WrathOfArceus]

You should make it where you can insert new music to the maps.If it's possible

[nimbo343]

Okay, I'm pretty new to this whole ROM-editing, but on the older versions of Advancemap the script had six-ciphered offsets, whereas this has eight-ciphered and it's causing the ROM to crash ;/ I'm using PokeScript, so I don't know if that's where the problem is. Other than that, I love the new AM, and I haven't encountered other problems - awesome job

[ruup20]

Maybe you could make something to flip the bigger blocks in the block editor

[DavidJCobb]

Some small GUI improvements to the "GreatBlock Pipette" would be nice.

I often find that once you've selected an area to copy, it's hard to line that up with existing terrain when pasting. (That is -- since the upper-left corner of the copy is anchored to the cursor, it's a bit hard to line up the right or bottom edges of the copied terrain with any existing terrain.)

A simple improvement would be to simply display a dashed-line border on the map, showing exactly where the copied terrain will be inserted if the user clicks. This would make it easier to line things up.

Aside from that and a few bugs (which I reported via e-mail), it's a great tool and I look forward to the next release.

[ThisIsNotJared]

Thanks for giving us Advance Map! Your hard work allows us all to make great games with ease! Though one problem is that the offsets created by BufRite are two digits too short for the offsets needed for events in the newest version. It was perfect in 1.9.

[Bananani]

Can anyone help me?
When I open my AdvanceMap there is it tells me to choose language but there is none.

Bug report: Wild Pokemon corruption on delete

Deleting wild Pokemon encounter lists will corrupt them, making it impossible to edit wild data for that map. Easiest solution, I think, would be to remove the ability to delete these lists, instead requiring the user to set the encounter ratio to 0.

Bug report: Map Connections are randomly corrupted

Also, AM will randomly and unpredictably corrupt maps' Map Connections data. The corruption ranges from mild to major and can usually be repaired in a hex editor if one can find the problem. The corruption happens to random maps (not just the ones that have actually been edited). In some cases, it gets ridiculous; for example, I just finished removing 140MB of null data that AdvanceMap tacked onto the end of a ROM when it tried to edit a map's connections.

Feature request: Error messages that are actually useful

On a related note, improvements could be made in how AdvanceMap handles corrupted data in maps. Currently, you have to jump through hoops in order to find out what in a map was corrupted. It would be nice to see a useful error message when loading the map ("Map connections for ROUTE 21 are corrupt!") instead of a message that reveals almost nothing about what actually went wrong ("ERROR: (ENotAPointer) AdvanceMapError(5): The value at $352C84 is not a Pointer!").

* * * * * * * * * *

If anyone else is having problems with AdvanceMap corrupting data, then here's how to figure out where the damage happened. Note, you'll still need to find and repair/repoint the data with a hex editor to actually fix it:

• Open AM. Load your ROM. Don't open any maps.
• Open Map A.
• If you see an error message, and if most of the tabs (i.e. "Wild Pokemon") don't do anything when clicked, then Map A is corrupted.
• Open Map B, a non-corrupted map.
• Open Map A again.
• Check Map A's Wild Pokemon. If you see Map B's Wild Pokemon instead, then this is what got corrupted in Map A.
• Check Map A's Map Connections. If you see Map B's Map Connections instead, then this is what got corrupted in Map A.
• And so on and so forth for all other map data.

Been using 1.92. Works smoothly.

The issue is if I change a spot in front of an entrance in a house or something then I can't leave the map even if I put the original tile back.

How do I fix this?

I can confirm this. I broke a couple maps in my hack doing this without knowing. Anyways, I won't need to repoint/repair anything. I keep dozens of backs up so I'll just need to find the most recent without any wild Pokemon data changes, then re-do the changes on it.

[Emcitement]

When I try to select "save map as" absolutely nothing happens.

How can I save my map..? It's pretty frustrating.

[Terrac]

I know this is a really noob question (i'm a real noob with hacking and tools) but how do you turn off the annoying lines in advancemap? i'm sorry if this is in the wrong place too, like i said, i'm new to hacking and to pokecommunity as well.
