Are you both using DiamondCutter ?
Maybe you need to try ScriptED.. or that new PokéScript tool ;)

YES!! I finally got the Hello World script to work! But now here's my new problem. I tried to do a give Pokemon script, and it didn't work. I thought something might be wrong with the script, so I'll show it.

#org 0x700000
message 0x700100
boxset 0x02
givepokemon 0x78 0x5 0x3
end
#org 0x700100
= Hello World!

Is there anything wrong with it? I sure hope so, because I can't think of a different possibility for it not working.

EDIT: I figured out the problem, and it was a careless mistake! I forgot to put the space between end and the words in the script! Now he does say Hello world, but he doesn't give me the Pokemon. What's wrong with it?

EDIT...Again: I figured out that I did get the Pokemon. It's just that it didn't say anything like, "(Player) received a Staryu!". By the way, how do you make that 'receive Pokemon' music happen when I get the Pokemon, and how can you make a script happen while you are receiving the Pokemon? And one last thing...the number of the Pokemon said 78, but Staryu's number isn't 78.

That's Staryu's hex number. Hex numbers are different. They go like this:

01
02
03
04
05
06
07
08
09
0A
0B
0C
0D
0E
0F
10

So the hex numbers of Pokémon would be a lot less than its real number.

Thanks, Tentachu.

Now I'm testing out Applymovement and I have this script:

Code:

#org 0x900000
applymovement 0xFF 0x900100
pause 0x10
end

#org 0x800100
#raw 0x5
#raw 0x7
#raw 0x4
#raw 0xFE
end

It's not working. Is something wrong with it?

It's not right. You should put "900100" not "800100".

Because maybe there's not a bank map like that in your ROM.
The numbers must be in hexadecimal.

zak · Feb 15, 2007

........

there is a map bank like that in my rom , its a ruby rom , i inserted the bank myself, and um......... how do i find out the numbers in hexdecimal , sorry to ask so many questions i only know like 2 scripts :(

*Smacks forehead* Duh! I can't believe I didn't notice that! Anyway, thanks!

EDIT: Actually, there's another problem with the script I think. Because whenever I step in that spot when walking up, I walk up. When I step when walking down, I move to the right. And when I step when walking to the left, I walk down. But I'm supposed to walk up, then right, then down.

EDIT AGAIN: Nevermind, I realized you have to put the same script in each place you want the sprite to move. Buuuut, I doesn't work twice in a row. It works the first time, but not the time after that. But when I step in that spot again after that, it works.

EDIT AGAAIN: Just a quick question. Could someone please tell me where I can find the hex numbers for all the Pokemon? It would really help, but it's not really necessary.

Cool! Thanks a bunch! But...I have another problem with a script. Here it is:

Code:

#org 0x900000
trainerbattle 0x00 0xD9 0x900100 0x900200
end

#org 0x900100
= Bring it on!

#org 0x900200
= I lost...

Whenever I use DiamondCutter for this script it says, "Run-time error '6': Overflow". And sorry if I've been asking too many questions. I'm new to this whole scripting thing.

You put too many numbers for script offsets. Try this one:

Code:

#org 0x782800
#raw 0x5C
trainerbattle 0x00 0x1A 0x829000 0x830000 0x831000
end

#org 0x829000
= Bring it on!

#org 0x830000
= I lost...

#org 0x831000
= We already battled!

Not tested but it should work.

Blaziken626 · Feb 16, 2007

Actually I don't think DiamondCutter is working at all with any trainerbattle scripts. I tried the richboy script that came with EliteMap, and that didn't even work. Oh, and I have another question. Is there a program that lets you search for scripts in the game by using offsets?

And also, I'm basically having the same problem as zak, and I tried that script you gave him and it didn't work.

Yea my trainer battles just giv me the olverflow message 6 wen i try to insert them with diamond cutter, .......

Blaziken626 · Feb 16, 2007

Can someone explain where to put flags into a message script? I can't figure out how to get it to work.

Irish Witch · Feb 17, 2007

Not meaning to spam you guys but I've posted an alternative scripting program of my own design in the toolbox. Because it's a complete rewrite it shouldn't have the same bugs that scripted used to have and should be much easier to use.

Please, give it a shot using the script you're having difficulty with and give me feedback!

And you shouldn't need to put that raw statement before the trainerbattle command either.

Hey, this tutorial is amazing. I've done a few simple ones but I'm trying to make a script where you get a super rod. I've done it successfully but it keeps giving super rods if I talk to him again.

I read the setflags part and I was trying to make it work but where ever I put the flag codes it didn't work. Can anyone suggest or tell me where I should place the flag tags in this:

Code:

#org 0x800700
lock
faceplayer
message 0x800800
boxset 0x5
compare LASTRESULT 0x1
if 0x1 goto 0x800900
message 0x801000
boxset 0x6
release
end

#org 0x800900
message 0x801100
boxset 0x6
giveitem 0x108 0x1
release
end

#org 0x800800
= I was hired by a scientist to catch\nsome water pokemon from here.\pWould you like to help?

#org 0x801000
= You sure? Well come back any time.

#org 0x801100
= Great. Here, take this fishing\nrod and start catching.

I'm just not sure where to place them so I can get the super rod and when I talk to the fisherman it doesn't give me another one.

Ha. I think I can feild this one (yaay I makey a post!)

The bits in bold are the bits I added

Blazin · Feb 17, 2007

EDIT: I got everything to work doing what you suggested Irish Witch, and everything worked except when I talk to the person again no text comes up. It still makes the noise when I press A but no text comes up.

EDIT EDIT: haha. Okay thanks for your help Irish Witch, I changed the boxset you had from 0x1 to 0x6 and it works fine now. Thank you!! :)
