I have a problem with Pokémon Gold.

I've made Cherrygrove City, Route 29, New Bark Town and Route 27 a big water route with no grass at all. The problem is that there was already water in Cherrygrove, New Bark and Route 27 but not in Route 29 - so no wild Pokémon appear in that map.

So, how do I create or remove wild Pokémon data?

You don't put them into APE, you put the string into a hex editor, and put the offset it gives you into APE.

What's the point of wasting time with a hex editor, reversing etc.? Just export the the palette, import it into APE and search it. That's it.

Yeah, but some of the palettes have an extra 00 00 in them (not at the end of the string) which the VBA palette viewer doesn't read so when exporting them into APE, they won't be found.

Those are just compressed palettes.

The oak palette won't load in APE or so he says. Sorry HackMew, I thought that was the only way he could find it. xD

I remember this type of thing happened with me awhile back. It's how you saved your palette. Save as a paint shop palette. The default palette vba saves it as is a microsoft palette, which doesnt seem to load. so try saving as a paint shop one. Don't for get to delete your old palette because vba doesnt save it if its already there... idk y DX

I searched and couldn't find the answer. I do beleive this is a very SIMPLE qwuestion. It may belong in Map help, though.

Anyway, I've made a person event, and in-game it isn't where it is meant to be. Which is bad, seeing as the script contains applymovement. x.x

Help is much appreciated!

Edit: Nevemind, figured it oput. It was because he was the only person event in the map, and was still labelled as Person Event No.1, not No.0. =D

Did you follow a tut? If you inserted them into Empty Space, they will not show up ready to use. If not, tell me what you did exactly.

Does anyone have the patches for the hacks Pokemon DuskGold and DawnSilver? I saw previews of the hacks and they look like a lot of fun. But I can't find the patches anywhere online.

(Don't give me an infration for this. Asking for the patches isn't against the rules.)

everyone thank you so much for your help. youve made my life so much easier

but ive stumbled upon an odd error. when i choose male as a gender the rivals hair and pants turn an odd color? but only when you chose male...

i have some theories about how i might fix it but if im wrong i might mess up the pallettes for other things in the game.. that would be bad.

so please help me out if youve got info

That is a hom hacking question. Asking where to find patches is asking about Rom Hacking.

OK,I think i put them in Sky Tower's inside room tileset,I(It's Tileset12,Ruby)put it on the top corner,of the tileset I mentioned(The note in brackets).

OK, is that in Free Space? Did you go to Picture - Load Tileset 2, not 1, as people make that mistake sometimes? It should appear in it...
