If I DON'T use my expanded space, music gets corrupted. Emerald does that. Common knowledge.
How exactly would you use an offset above 0xFFFFFF? In the hex 'alphabet' it doesn't go past 'F,' sorry if I just don't understand it but it seems the only logical way to continue from that point would be for the program to go back to 0x1... etc...
(I actually do want to know this, because I plan on making my own hack from Emerald and I didn't even know you could expand the ROM :/)
ANYWAYS...
Kind of related to my issue above, I'm scripting a new beginning for the game. I'm not that far, but I found a program to change the starting location for the game and that worked out, so I have two questions:
1) Is there any way to remove the 'earthquake' animation and the stopping and pausing that happens in the truck from my new map? I cleared out all the map scripts but it still happens :/
2) I have a script:
Code:
#dynamic 0xE00000
#org @start
lockall
applymovement 0xFF @jump
waitmovement 0xFF
fadescreen 0x1
warpmuted 0x24 0x52 0xFF 0x06 0x06
fadescreen 0x0
releaseall
end
#org @jump
#raw 0x0C 0xFE
This is on a tile, and the tile isn't the actual problem... This is what happens:
My character jumps down into the 'hole' like he's supposed to and then the screen fades... like it's supposed to.
Here's the problem, after it fades it just crashes the game, not freezes but completely crashes.
The new map I'm trying to warp to is a 13x13 map overwriting the entrance to New Mauville, using the same tilesets as it. The whole map is just black tiles (Except for a sign), with script tiles making a circle around where the player warps to on the ground, there are 26 script tiles in the circle, so my thought is that there are way to many scripts in one map, but that's kind of a problem because I want the player to be able to 'play a part' in the entrance to the game.
I might add that I have absolutely no idea what the exit # is in the warp command, I just saw a few in-game scripts using that and it worked in my re-make of the 'getting out of the truck, talking to your mom, and going into the house' sequence.
Also, do scripts keep going after you warp? That would be really useful because I could make a whole 'cutscene,' but if not that sucks because then I have to use a level script just to frickin' fade the screen back to normal :/
Sorry for the novel, just have a lot of problems and I'm running on my phone's Wifi tethering (Stupid step dad disabled the cable) so I need to hit around 10-20 birds with one slow-moving stone lol.
