Advance Text Help (Is this the right subforum?

Hello. I'm new here and I don't know where to post my question...
So if I have posted into the wrong, please move it! ;)

When I have opened my hacked rom in Advance-Text first time I recived a message that I should create a new ini file. I chose "OK" and went to search, but I can't see which sprite is saying the message! I just can type a word and get one message containing this word! Anyone knows?

I cannot find a way to add an item in EliteMap, all i want to do is add a pokeball with some masterballs, but i dont know how to add one. I know how to edit existing items to make it a masterball, but i want to know how you can add and item in EliteMap. Thanks a lot!!!
Hmm...If I were you I wouldn't use Elitemap to edit maps, Advance Map is much better. If I were you I would open up the script in a notepad change the item to masterball, and change the offsets. Basically copy a script, change it, and re-insert it in a new location. Then just use the Pokeball sprite.

Seems like Hiidoran has his helping day^^
So I have a question too (I´m not mad if someone else answers^^):
I´ve downloaded FreeSpaceFinder, I have unlZgba, and I have my Fakemon, but I don´t know;
1.) What to search (the bytes)
2.) what to do with the found number (where to put it in)
Well, I suppose I have my momments XD. Also, I have a question for you, why use FreeSpaceFinder? Why not just open a hex editor and look for a bunch of "FF". That's free space. But hey, you do things the way you want to. So as to your question I don't really know because I've never used it. Though it seems from a first glance that when you search, it gives you the first offset that contains free space. Just make a script starting with the offsets it gives you. Though I could be wrong...

this question probably been answered but i dont have the time or the patience to look for it, but can anyone tell me where to find professor oak's sprite in unlz-gba, the one at the begining, and also professor birches one in emerald....
Ah, this one I know personally! First switch to 256 color mode in unlz-gba, then go to around 343, that's where mine is. Yours could be different however, but it should be like 1-3 images earlier or later though. As for Birch in Emerald, I have no idea; sorry.

ok here easyest question ever!
How do i post a thread -_-'
yes im being serious

1. Urgh! I hate it when there are questions I know there is a solution to, but I simply don't know the answers. The only person that has successfully done this, that I have seen, is Zel. Maybe he can help you if he's not too busy with Shiny Gold.

2. Sadly, no it is not possible to change what people say using Advanced Map. The only thing you can do script wise, is view the sprites text offset.

I didn't get a word you said but I think that means that I won't actually be using PokeScript for Scripting.

lol. uhm a short way to say it? see when u right click your .rbc file and click "compile"? that's what pokescript/scripted is for. ^^ the thing between the notepad and the bufrites lol

for the guy with the emerald test going always white, i think u haven't switched the save type in the emulator options to "128k". do it, it should be that and not your hack ^^

*still waiting for smbd that tells me if and how i can add pokemons without erasing old ones (there are 15-30 slots available between celebi and treecko)*

Trouble with importing Scripts...

Hi, I'm pretty new here, but I've had tons of other coding experiences. I'm trying to get the Script offset of a script, but what I think was it, I don't think it was. I followed the tutorial on using Pokescript on it's home (I think) to get as far as I did. The offset I took was
- Putting [I ] at 1B89C0
(The letters/numbers in bold) and it didn't work. I just took what I think came with EliteMap, or from something with it. The code in it was this.
'This code mimics the Rich Boy at the forest entrance.

#define MYBATTLE 0x88
#define MYREMATCH 0x88 'Most rematches use different indices.
#define MYREMATCHCHECK 0x39

#org 0x14F1DE

trainerbattle 0x0 MYBATTLE 0x1B88D4 0x1B8911
special2 LASTRESULT MYREMATCHCHECK
compare LASTRESULT B_YES
if B_TRUE 0xC00200
message 0x1B8925

#org 0x14F205
trainerbattle 0x5 MYREMATCH 0x1B895E 0x1B899E
message 0x1B89C0

break

'Text blocks go here

I'm looking for the same thing, and how do I add the area i want it to warp to? Like the new cave to edit? I tried creating a new map but it just saved over my victory road map -.- I didn't want to restart so basically when my hack is released, it may be no different but I created victory road on there xD well at least the main cave

You should be able to find some free maps under map bank 25, the free maps should be from 25.29-25.33 or so.
