You would have to resize the map then repoint the data to a new location using hex.

Is there any way to make the shiny gyarados battle in GS to only happen at the night?
Click to expand...

It can be done, you would have enable a flag that allows the Gyarados to appear at night only. Then you would have to script in the battle code to allow you to battle a shiny Gyarados.

whenever i exit a battle and return to the overworld map, the player is stuck and i can move around this bug catcher that was on screen from before entering the battle
it also only happens with that particular bug catcher
other battles when the catcher isn't on screen are fine
what's wrong?
Click to expand...

Sounds like a bad glitch to me, you probably either have to fix up some scripts or restrat your game with a clean or backup ROM.

Is it possible to use a flag instead of a variable for a level script? If not what variables are not used by the game already? This is for FR.

i tried that, it didn't work.

i just ends up as [filename].GBA but is still a .BAK file

is there some certain setting which makes the file type changeable?

but i will still ask, how do i change .BAK files to .GBA files??

How do you index sprites?

and also.. in the UNLZ-GBA.

The poke sprites doesn't show it's a black and white crispy image.

How do you add wild pokemon data to places that don't have wild pokemon data (cities,towns, lake of rage...) in Pokemon Gold?
Click to expand...
02AB35 starts a list of wild Pokemon and their locations, in the following format:
[2-byte map number]
[wild Pokemon ratio morn][wild Pokemon ratio day][wild Pokemon ratio nite]
[level][species][level][species][level][species][level][species][level][species][level][species][level][species] (morn)
[level][species][level][species][level][species][level][species][level][species][level][species][level][species] (day)
[level][species][level][species][level][species][level][species][level][species][level][species][level][species] (nite)

The list continues this way until you reach a FF for the first byte, which signifies the end of the list.

To add to a new area, you would want to
a) Overwrite an existing entry in the list
b) repoint the list and add new entries there

Did you change your save type? Go to Options > Emulator > Save Type > Flash 128K in the VBA.

Blazichu what is the internal clock work? and i have expanded the ROM is it okay to have no image in pokepic but there is one inside the game?
Click to expand...

The Internal Clock is the clock that you set at the beginning of Ruby, if it doesn't work then berries will not be able to grow. Also if you can't see them in Pokepic then if you want to replace anything you probably can't.

Does anybody know how to decompress the intro graphics for Gold so that I may edit them in TLP?
Click to expand...

The starting where it says Gamefreak and Nintendo is decompressed already, the Game Freak intro sequence (the text and logo) can be found using 1BPP mode (close to the Intro text) and the titlescreen can be decompressed using a patch, which if I remember is in my Tutorial thread. Have a look in there if you need it.

Originally, I asked this in the wrong forum by mistake, but I hope someone here can help me - I'm having some issues with the Sappy program ^_^'

Basically, after I convert midis into .s files and import them into the game (in this case, Pokemon Ruby) via Sappy, they sound NOTHING like the original midi file. They play very choppily, with poor sound quality, and it's driving me crazy. I know how to do the entire process of changing the music, but nothing I can do seems to improve the actual quality of the music I try to make use of even though the original MIDIs sound just fine. Any advice would be REALLY appreciated! :)
