you can change the name through A-Text, or through hex editing the ROM, I guess... :\

[robie392]

I think you rename the items by using A-Text or you could use N-E-A (look in hackmews' toolbox). You can replace the sprites of items using unLZ. You can edit items by hex editing (I don't know how that's done actually) or by using an item editor tool. You can change the description, again using A-text.

Does anyone have a ROM base for GSC? I've looked around for one, but I couldn't find one!

This is not the right place to post this, but nevertheless, Google is always right.

Not that I know of. There is a simple music editor, though I couldn't tell you where to find one.

What's the offset for the Pokemon Backpics in PokeRoms.ini?
For FR, I mean.

[Zephiel]

Is there a way to replace trainer sprites with ones you made yourself? If so, which program is the most user-friendly?

If I need unLZ, does anyone know the numbers for the trainers in Fire Red? Thanks.

yes they start at about 1499 - 1501 the numbers change per dump

[Satoshi_Red]

I feel like an idiot but I can't find the trainer backsprites on unLZ or the walking around and on-bike sprites. Are they fuzzily/strangely colored or something? Is it before or after the pokemon/normal trainer images?

[Megiddo-san]

You can't find the backsprites in unlz. Take a look at zel's tutorial. The ows ('walking and bike sprites') are editable using ow editor/ow editor rebirth edition. I think it's in the toolbox.

[Zephiel]

Okay thanks for answering my last question, but now I can't seem to find anything on editing Trainer's palettes. I really have no idea how to do that now... I have APE but I'm not sure how to find the numbers for colors that I want. Thanks in advance.

[Melash]

Okay, is there a guide anywhere on how to completely change the world map in GS? When I mean completely, I mean changing the fly-points, the XY locations of the cities/routes and stuff like that?

[Eeveon]

What is the best hex editor to get?
I'll find it in google, I just need the name.

You need to search for the colours in a hex editor, but first use the VBA's palette viewer to see what colours you are searching for, all you need to do is reverse the bytes, search for the reversed bytes in hex and then when found you can edit them there or write the offset in APE.

There isn't a guide on how to do it, as it is not too difficult either. The picture of the Johto map is at 91F52-920BA. The picture of the Kanto map is at 920BB-92223. Where you can fly to on the Johto map is at 91BCC and their pointers are at 91B8D.

Most of the Hex editors are the same, zophar has a few decent ones, just download one and try it out.

hi,
im hacking a pokemon emerald rom using advance map. i accidently clicked insert and created another map. i need someone who knows about this to tell me how to delete the map.
thanks,
koglaa

[Ninja Caterpie]

Why do you want to delete it?
Well...I'm not sure if you can...
Anyway, just don't use the map...it can come in handy when you need another map...

I'm having a problem with inserting new badges. I inserted new ones, which turned out to be messed up and now I am trying to insert correct ones. When I insert them, it still shows the messed up ones. How can I fix this?

[~Maverick~]

Although I'm making my first pokemon hack, I'm not new to hacking. I normally hack Fire Emblem games onver on a different forum, but this time I started a project to edit a pokemon game (Fire Red), making all of the pokemon into Nintendo characters. However, I have a few questions:

1. Is there an English version of Pokemon Amplifier (PA)? It seems to be a great program, besides the minor snag that I can't read it.

2. Is there any way to add more moves into the game? I know I have 354 attacks in Fire Red, but is it possible to double that number?

3. Is there some way (some tool, perhaps) that makes script very beginner friendly? It seems like there's no short cut to learning it...

4. In Fire Red, can I make it possible to fly to the islands from the mainland?

That's all I have for now. Any help you can give me would be appreciated.

[Megiddo-san]

1. Get YAPE, it's awesome.

2. Adding yes. Double, I'm not so sure

3. Maybe XSE

4. Yes
