[Scripting] XSE Scripting Tutorial

[Benzee]

Hey, first let me say that this is a cool tutorial and I look forward to using it. When I tried to make a script for a test sign, I followed your steps. Here is my script.

Spoiler:

#dynamic 0x800426

#org @msg
Lock
Faceplayer
msgbox @msg 0x3
release
end

#org @start
= Hola!

Now I hit compile script, but I don't know how to insert it into the game. I tried setting the offset number in advance-map to $800426, but then whenever I open it, it's a different one. I've been trying to figure it out for a while, but I have yet to figure out what I am doing wrong. Any help would be appreciated.

Edit: Just figured out the problem. Great guide.

Ive made my script and compiled but how do I put it on advance map into a person?

[Zanny77]

Erm, I am not sure what's going on. I have XSE up and I tried to run this on the fat guy in front of Prof. Oak's lap.

Spoiler:

#dynamic 0x800000
#org @start
lock
faceplayer
message @tutorial 0x5
compare LASTRESULT 1
if b_true goto @yes
compare LASTRESULT 0
if b_true goto @no
release
end

#org @tutorial
= Do you like Cannibal Corpse?

#org @yes
message @pressyes 0x6
release
end

#org @no
message @pressno 0x6
release
end

#org @pressyes
= Good job!\pI'd give you a cookie\p...\pIf I had one...

#org @pressno
= .....octopus...

I also went into Advance Map and changed his script offset to 800000, but it's not working. What's wrong?

(Also, I'm not sure if this does anything, but I moved him into in front of the house and changed his position to "look up."

Whats wrong with this:



#org $16B0000
lock
faceplayer
checkflag 0x1000
if b_true goto $alredygot
message $getitem
$getitem 1 = Your pokedex is upgradet
boxset 6
giveitem 0xD 0x5
setflag 0x1000
release
end

#ORG $alredygot
lock
faceplayer
message $onlyone
$onlyone 1 = Do you like your new pokedex
boxset 6
release
end

[thetribemaster]

@AL_91

Try this, I even went to the trouble of fixing your grammar :D
DONT COPY AND PASTE

Spoiler:

#dynamic 0x[insert offset from FSF]
#org @start
lock
faceplayer
checkflag 0x923 (unless already used)
if 0x1 goto @alredygot
msgbox @getitem 0x6
giveitem 0xD 0x5 MSG_OBTAIN
setflag 0x923
release
end

#ORG @alredygot
msgbox @onlyone 0x6
release
end

#org @getitem
= Your pokedex is upgraded.

#org @onlyone
= Do you like your new pokedex?

@Zanny77

Try this one, same as above

Spoiler:

#dynamic 0x800000
#org @start
lock
faceplayer
msgbox @tutorial 0x5
compare LASTRESULT 0x1
if 0x1 goto @yes
message @pressno 0x6
release
end

#org @yes
msgbox @pressyes 0x6
release
end

#org @tutorial
= Do you like Cannibal Corpse?

#org @pressyes
= Good job!\pI'd give you a cookie\p\hB0\pIf I had one\hB0

#org @pressno
= \hB0octopus\hB0

@HFI

Seriously, did you read the thread, or just post, type in the offset XSE gave you into the "Script offset" field (by default it will have $000000 in it) type it like this, say the offset was 800000, then it would say $800000.

[AL_91]

now i learned how to use FSF
but..

#dynamic 0x9C0B20
#org @start
lock
faceplayer
checkflag 0x923
if 0x1 goto @alredygot
msgbox @getitem 0x6 <-?
giveitem ?????? <------ what sould i put here??
setflag 0x923
release
end

#ORG @alredygot
msgbox @onlyone 0x6
release
end

#org @getitem
= Your pokedex is upgraded.

#org @onlyone
= Do you like your new pokedex?


------------------------------------------

pkmnhackersonline says
[F301] = Emerald national dex

[thetribemaster]

That depends on what you want to give, the script you gave me would give you 5 potions.
Oh, you want to give the national dex, thats a special.

Replace giveitem xxx xxx xxx with

special 0x1F3

[AL_91]

...
if 0x1 goto @alredygot
msgbox @getitem 0x6
special 0x1F3
setflag 0x923
release
...
Like this??

#Dynamic 0x800000

#org 0xE3CF65
lock
faceplayer
checkflag 0x10B
if 0x1 jump 0xE3CF8B
setflag 0x10B
special 0x1F3
msgbox 0x8E3CF97
callstd 0x6
fanfare 0x13E
msgbox 0x8E3CFB3
callstd 0x6
release
end

#org 0xE3CF8B
lock
faceplayer
msgbox 0x8E3CFC6
callstd 0x6
release
end

#org 0xE3CF97
= text
#org 0xE3CFB3
= Pokedex Upgradet
#org 0xE3CFC6
= Like your new pokedex?

game works with this but very slowly (and sorry for my bad english)

i fixed it. thanx for help

[Southparkerstan]

Hi, I have a problem with XSE. Whenever i hit the compile button, i get a message that says "Too les parameters on line 6. The correct number is 2." Whats the problem?
Here's the script:
#Dynamic 0x800000
#ORG @Main
Lock
FacePlayer
Message @Speak
BoxSet 0x6
Release
End
#ORG @Speak
= This is a test script.

[AL_91]

'-----------------------
#org 0x869630
lock
faceplayer
checkflag 0x10A
if 0x1 call 0x8869652
special 0x1F3

This is a really short tut.

[darkmaster0]

Something is wrong. I can edit scripts that are already in the game but I can't add my own. It compiles successfuly but doesn't open the right script in advance map.

[Flip-destiny]

I need help =/

I followed the tutorial and then I clicked Compile and this message appeared, "Too less parameters on line 6. The correct number is 2."

What does that mean, please help!

[Bao]

okay i must be doing something wrong here.

so i'll edit one script like say a signpost and compile it. than i'll go and edit a different signpost and compile it. BUT, if i go back to recheck on the first script i edit, it changes by itself. it becomes a mixture of both scripts that i've edit...

what am i doing wrong??

Use a Free Space Finder.
Compile script to a free space.
and it will work.

I am assuming your editing signs that are already in game.
Dont.
Make a new one and get the offset from FSF.
Then compile. Thats how. Try it.

[Ark_Dragon]

Ok so i want to start scripting and the tut at beggining seems helpful, but can someone lock any important posts to the top, because theres a lot here to read and i dont want to miss anything too good! xD

Can't help unless you post your script.

[Giratina the master]

Why does it send me messae saying
no #dirrectives were found cannot compile

[xyzmetal]

I followed the tutorial and my script is:

#Dynamic 0x800000

#ORG @Main
Lock
FacePlayer
Message @Speak
BoxSet 0x6
Release
End
#ORG @Speak
= This is a message!

A message keeps popping up saying "Too less parameters online 6. The correct number is 2." What does that mean?

Fixed

Msgbox @Speak 0x6

End

#ORG @Speak

It is now Msgboc instead of message then boxset.

Actually, it is
msgbox
OR
message

Both work fine, the new part about it is the last byte.
That is boxset.

Instead of;
message @lol
boxset 0x6

now you have to type;
message @lol 0x6

You see, not much of a difference.
Just clarifying that both msgbox and message work... of course, the initial question would not have been asked if people were smart enough to read the guide that is INCLUDED WITH XSE, it tells you all of the changes since the update!

[Larsa Solidor]

You have absolutely no idea how long i have been looking for a good XSE scripting tutorial! THANK YOU SOOOOOOO MUCH!!!!

[xyzmetal]

So I tried it and nwo it says Error 13 "Type Dismatch" on line 6. Missing dynamic label.
My script is

#Dynamic 0x800000

#ORG @Main
Lock
FacePlayer
message @lol 0x6
Release
End

#ORG @Speak
= This is a message!

And on line 6 I have = message @lol 0x6. Any help for that? P.S. The guide doesnt tell you how to deal with error codes.
