What is the problem if I want to open a ROM that I am hacking in overworld editor RE and is says: Error loading INI settings for this game
???

Click to expand...

It's most likely a ROM that OWE cannot read.

With some ROM hacks (such as Liquid Ocean), the author purposely edits the codebase of the ROM so that it is only playable with an emulator, and not editable through AdvanceMap, OverworldEditorRE, etc.

But mine was originally FireRed ROM, I made the hacking, no code-base editing involved, and it works w/ AM!

Well, do you have the 'comctl32.ocx' file?

Yes, infact I do.

Please, help!

Any hint about the location of the tilemap for world maps (in FireRed)? I know already where the tileset is (offset 003F0580 / unLZ #911 w/ deep scan), but as opposed to the title screen images, the tilemap was not right after the tileset.

I systematically checked nearly 500 raw data files (I skipped sprites which actually are images, and also skipped junk chunks looking too large to be a correct raw) and none of them matched. :(

This question has not been answered yet.

Hi, my question involves switching animations for moves. I have FireRed 1.0 and would like to use the "Dragon Rage" animation with the move "Dragonbreath." I have hex editing software and all that but wouldn't know where to begin--is there a simple address that needs to be changed, and if so, what's that?

If you know where the tileset is the tilemap is usually the one after it. If not zel has uploaded one in M_X's World Map tutorial thread.

No, the animation data pointers are not in the Attack Data table.

The only way I can think of doing it in an easy way is to give Dragonbreath all the properties of Dragon Rage and vice versa. Then you'll have swapped both attacks.

I have two problems/questions needing to be answered.

1. How (if it is possible) can you edit Emerald's sprites? (Not the OWs.)
2. How do I figure out the Hex numbers of all Pokemon's cries? (So I can edit the script and put in cries)

Thanks.

Click to expand...

1. The same way you edit any sprite. Index it, load it in UNLZ, repoint and insert the image and pallete.
2. The cry numbers are the same as the Pokemon numbers.

EDIT: One more

You are trying to load an unsupported rom. Make sure that the rom has not been edited in anyway. If you can't figure it out yourself, reply with what rom it is that you are attempting to open.

How do I edit the tiles in my ROM? Does anyone know any premade ones? I see a lot of similar tiles throughout ROM hacks...

Umm...
How do you make a script with multiple people moving at the same time?
I want to know how to.

You are referring to rom bases which can be found here and various other forums.
Otherwise here is a good tutorial for inserting tiles yourself.

applymovement 0x[person1] [movement1]
applymovement 0x[person2] [movement2]
pausemove 0

If you are using XSE it would be waitmovement not pausemove. The person who has the longest number of movements needs to be placed last. You can also put as many as you want.

Thanks, so I think I'll be old school and use the old way.
Where do you put that script though?

Okay, this question was asked a while back, and it was answered, and I did what the answer was and it didn't work. So I have to ask again.

When I try to run A-Mart, I get a pop-up saying: "Component COMCTL32.OCX or one of its dependencies not correctly registered: a file is missing or invalid."

When this was last asked, the answer was to download the missing file. So I did that. I downloaded COMCTL32.OCX and put it in the directory of A-Mart, and it didn't work, so I tried putting it in the inis folder and that didn't work either.

So if that doesn't work, what can I do to make A-Mart work?

Uh, where ever you want it to go obviously.

You need to make sure that it is in your System32 folder. If that doesn't work try this tutorial on how to manually register the file.

just to put it out there... there is not a cyclont/ntme tilemap for the fire-red version game, so far as I know. If anyone can show otherwise, please do, cause this is something I wwould like to know the location of as well. ^-^

I'm not sure exactly what you are asking. Which tilemap are you referring to?

Sorry, let me re-word this...
I do not think that there is a TileMap for the world Map from Pokemon Firered Version.
If there is, will some one please tell me where to find it, in unLZgba, deep-scan.

O.o I swear there is one. Either it's there somewhere or I was using a different thing.

there is one. its a prototype program called hurricane. i used it to do my world map on FR. it was canceled and then turned into NTME.

thanks in advance
