What are the tools for hacking the heroine back sprite?

Also how to hack the "sending Pokemon out to use HM move"* OW sprite

*For example: when Lyra send out Wartortle to use Surf, her OW sprite will move right?

Any help is appreciated!! [=

Hi, Everyone I'm new to all this but i was thinking that Pokemon Heart gold and soul silver need to revamp. Don't get me wrong the remakes were great they just could have been better, don't you think? that why I'm proposing that we do something, i wish to add a new small island to the game, maybe around the Mt. Silver or the indigo plateau were u can battle any gym leader from all 4 regions, every elite 4 member and champion and maybe also every hero and rival.
P.S. maybe the frontier brains too
So what do u guy think? Anyone think they can help?

Doesn't look like a HG/SS hack to me, more like a game programmed from scratch (perhaps using a program like RPG Maker or Game Maker).

If you look carefully, it doesn't appear to be actual 3D, but rather 'mode 7'. If you look at the night-time screen of Rustboro (3rd one on the right), the two buildings at the bottom don't have any perspective. The bottom one is just zoomed in a bit more than the top one; they're both sprites, not 3D models.

That's some of the most impressive mode 7 work I've seen so far, though.

EDIT: It being French and having a dual-screen system reminded me of the Pokémon Script Project for RMXP. Checking on their forum, turns out I was correct: here's the thread. The screenshots in the thread don't appear to have been updated for a while, though.

This is an engine ive been working the last few months, ive decided to release the source so i can start working on my own pokemon project...

You are free to use this engine, as long as you give me some credit

Important:
Before you test the GM6 file remember to include the external files into the project, else you will get several error messages and the game wont run. The external files must be extarcted to a temporary folder created by the game

It also includes a small crappy map editor to make the .MEF files, read the readme.txt file for the controls and info

Download: (the files is a gm6, but its compatible with all later versions, even 8)
LinkA (This one is more updated and secure)
Link B
Gmk users - Thanks Mocgames998!

Please, do post what you think about it, so i can improove, fix, update, etc..

Um... No. That's for Game Maker. But, I do once seeing a Pearl rom hack, like what we do. I'll have to find it though. :\

i mean does it edit the maps? i haven't tried cause i'm gonnar re put windows 7 on.

well this is a start... if he lets us we should work more using Game Maker because of its 3D editing powers. using that source + the crappy editor we could get a one that works!
then we could
"rip" the part of "game maker" that we need to make a "stand along programe"

as for the ruby remake. they must have used a 3D game editor to make it.

You seem to be misunderstood. Game Maker is for making games from scratch. It isn't used for hacking. I think this game was made from scratch to look like DPPT/HGSS but it isn't. You can't rip something from Game Maker that isn't there.

If you're using game maker you shouldn't be in hacks you should be in game dev. Jeeze I thought we were the only ones with the issue.

Anyways the above thing is from PSP DS, which uses Game Maker you guys are getting horribly mislead by a few screens.

I also want to change the starter in hgss.

Maybe i can use a hex editor to change the starter if i know the offset.

But I don't know the offset. So anyone know the offset?
