but wot if ur laptop already complains about a virus

[Full Metal]

THEN REDOWNLOAD THE TOOLS! (or if its not related to the tools...get your stupid virus program to remove the virus) and if you downloaded the program recently and your virus program reports his programs to be viral, get a better virus scanner.

[0m3GA ARS3NAL]

Then your computer itself has a virus, it isn't these programs that are the source, I have just downloaded them and tested MYSELF. No problems, no viruses.
The virus reports are OLD, did you even bother reading the whole thread?

[ZodiacDaGreat]

Look I know the first time I posted it they were viruses but it wasn't so, that's because my computer had a virus and it attached itself to all the exe files. I have posted already later on that I've fixed my computer and the tools so that they are safe. There are also dozens of users who has posted later that the tools are safe, so why do I STILL find people suspecting they are viruses and such. Everybody makes mistakes but not always...

[helloNL]

there is no virus what i see on the screenie i saw
the virus scanner doesnt trust the programm
so it doesnt want to let connection with the internet happen
and then you get a report

You're welcome.

How come none of us got any viruses?

[ZodiacDaGreat]

Just a little update, since the thread and the tools has laid idle for sometime, anyway, I'll be recoding my tools starting from Tileset Manager in the C programming language. So far, I've ported the code of the VB6 LZ77 compression/decompression routines to C and boy they are fast Uhm, this is also the time for you to request for some stuff. Well, tell me what to include in Tileset Manager? I thought of including my Tileset 1 enlargement hack in

How about making the door manager edit other animations?
Like the grass and water animations?

[Full Metal]

Ooohhh, feature request: GTK.
If you don't know it, i'll help ya out, OR you could go to the official website they got some pretty good tuts under the "documentation" (scroll to bottom) I personally recommend here
I second the animation compatibility.
hm....could you let us load external palettes, or load palettes from the ROM with the door editor? that was kinda painful to use without the colors.

[skyfall]

hello, i'm new on this forum.

i just wanted to ask zodiacdagreat if he could make his great tools compatible to german roms, since i'm pretty eager to use them
thanks in advance!

[ZodiacDaGreat]

Well, I've completed most of the neccessary functions of Tileset Manager. I'm posting a little preview here for people to try and see if there are any errors. You can get it in the attachment below. Thing you'll notice is that the Compress and Uncompress are faster now

[zZJoennZz]

nice tools set,,,,... :D

...i like it

There ARE NO PSP VIRUSES.
In order to have a virus on your PSP, it would have to be a homebrew, or a TIFF Image Expliot.

Homebrew, is a user-made program that will ONLY RUN on the PSP.
If you hadn't noticed, these are COMPUTER programs, .exe filles made to run in a windows environment.
PSP Programs are .PBP Format, and TIFF Expliot images are .TIFF Format.

There is no possible way you could have lost ANYTHING on your PSP, someone probably deleted your stuff while you had your back turned, or someone got a hold of it.
Don't spread rumors that aren't true, there ARE NO VIRUSES in these programs, everything is fine.
[/rage]
tl;dr: The PSP can't get a computer virus, and ZDG makes pretty great tools, that are VIRUS FREE.

I have a question about the trade manager. How would I make a shiny pokemon in a trade? In gen 2 all the ev.'s had to be the same, but it's different in gen 3.

If you wanna make a shiny pokemon recieved from a trade...

First, you should get a hold of the Shinyzer, by HackMew.

Then use the Shinyzer BEFORE you start the trade, the pokemon you recieve will be shiny.

I was thinking about that, but I didn't think it would work. (This is what you get when you look at bulbapedia. ) I'll test it out.

I don't own a PSP, so I can't say either way.
BUT, omega arsenal is probably right, and you have no clue what you are talking about. Note i said probably. Personally, I think that there will be more viruses on a MAC or LINUX than on a PSP, and none of those really have many (i'm not going to google for a list of mac/linux viruses, that sounds dangerous to my windows os...). My point being: Why would anybody even want to make a PSP virus? It's not like anyone would actually have the patience to do bills or online purchases on them. Also, a file can't execute itself; saying that it happened as soon as you downloaded them is ridiculous. The PSP, I am almost certain, can not run .exe files. At best, it might run .elf files (which i still find un-likely, but again, I don't own one and don't know for sure). Those un-openable files could easily be corrupted downloads or something ( I notice that firefox seems to have a 2-part file dl, maybe the PSP does the same?) Also, what did you try to use to open them? The psp isn't exactly capable of opening anything besides media files on it's own...
*On-Topic*
@Zodiac- did you decide to use GTK+ :D ? If not, can you tell me what tool-kit you did use?

I have a psp and I know four things:

1. You have to have a hacked PSP to run custom firmware
2. PSP can delete files. You can do that.
3. PSP's can only run .PBP custom firmware files. Nothing else.
4. You run the program, unless its a plugin that is booted on startup.

[ZodiacDaGreat]

Updated the first post Tileset Manager's done, that did take some time XD Not to mention that I bothered a lot of people, so thanks to you all that I'm able to make it this far and the next tool will be easier to code.

[wollweepop]

can somebody make a tut for door manager?

[Halfshadow]

Can you add in your trader advance the feature to choose the gender of the original trainer?

The O/T gender is here:



00 corresponds to the male, 01 to the female.
One last thing:
Please can you make it compatible with italian roms?
