thaaat's gonna be fun

-----

i'm having a problem when i try to edit the titlescreen
i used unlzGBA to rip the charizard (to gif in black/white palette)
and rip the charizard tilemap (to .raw)
i edited the charizard tileset in photoshop, it's still indexed, and saved
then i opened both in cyclone
i fixed the tilemap and saved it as another .raw

the tileset is fine when i insert it, it's just jumbled up
when i insert the tilemap, the image is put together fine, but takes on the palette of the POKéMON logo instead
what did i do wrong? o_O

Question: Where in unLz-GBA can I edit the big "Team Aqua Sign" that appears when you battle an Aqua grunt? (EMERALD please)
Whats the number, and can I just normally edit it in unLZ-GBA?

Also, same question, but then for the "Team rocket Sign" that appears in FIRERED, What's the number?

(By "signs" I mean the lgo you'll see right before a battle with team aqua/team rocket starts. You know, the screen get's all blurry, the battle music starts, and then ya see the logo.)

You didn't set the palette properly. By default, it's the first one (palette 1) which is used by the logo, among others. Basically you need to load the tileset, set the palette to 14 and re-make the whole tilemap. Or you post the tilemap you're currently using and I'll fix the palette for you in no time.

As far as I remember, those pictures are not LZ77 compressed. I may be wrong though, so make sure to check all the numbers in unLZ, I suggest you using the Black and White option. If the picture is not compressed, then you'll need to use a tile editor such as TLP or Tile Molester.

I've searched and I haven't found my answer, so here's my question:

In Advanced Map, I place a person event (the boat) in the water, save in AMap, play on VBA and the boat is somewhere inland. Thinking it has something to do with the movement permissions, I change where the boat is to have 'C's instead of '4's, but it does the same thing as before. Could someone help me, please?

P.S. I'm using Advanced Map v.1.9.2 and VisualBoy Advance v.1.8.0.

P.S x2. If there's a word with an 'm' missing, it's because my bloody 'M' key sucks (I have to BASH it for it to work. D=<)

Sometimes when I use this command, my character faces down instead of left:

Spoiler:

#org @something
#raw 0x02 0xFE

Why does this happen? How do I fix it?

That should not happen, maybe you made a typo. O.o

When you open VBA, is it on the same map that you just edited? Get off that map, save, and restart (close and reopen) vba.
If it's not that, the boat - how far inland is it when playing?

Ok, four four questions.

1. Is there some way to like count steps or time in FireRed like in the Safari Zone? (I know there is no real time clock in FR and I'm pretty sure there's no way to make one. If there's a way please tell me.)

2. Is there a way to add the Macro / Mach bikes into FR? Also... How do I make a script where stars aren't there and then they appear when you press a switch? I learned tons of scripting but for some reason didn't come across how to do this. Is it setmaptile script? I know that you can change movement permissions with setmaptile.

3. Is there a way to edit what an item does? Like if I want a specific item to say some type of text when I choose the item. Ex: If I make an item and click on it so that it says "It's 1:30" or "Its 2:00" depending on which flag is set in a script.

4. (Not really simple). How are voicegroups set up in hex? I want to edit voicegroups so that R/S/E music sounds perfect in FR/LG.

1. There's a timer in the Trainer Tower, I just dunno how to use it. xD There's probably a way to make a clock with some hex and ASM skills. Look at M_X! He's made a Day/Night palette changer for RS and is working to make it compatible with FR/LG!

2. Dunno.

3. Dunno.

4. I want to know too! xD Some music fits perfectly (like the RSE Route theme 2 with the Route theme 3 from FR) but other are horrendous (you try Route 201's theme! xD) I tried copying and pasting but all it did was make Sappy shut down when I tried to import. >.<

In the end, I haven't helped at all. xD

Where can I edit the, Fight, Run etc. text?

Search for it in advance text.

Are you using a custom sprite? If so, you might have placed a sprite incorrectly.

[Melash]

Okay, I've got some questions:
1. Where is the animation tiles in Red located at
2. Does anyone have the EliteMap .ini's for Emerald Version? (I have to use E-Map....)
3. Okay, this is a weird question, but does anyone have any...err, 'sheet music' for RSE? Well, not actual sheet music, but the notes for all the music in RSE. I don't know if anyone's made written down all the music for it, but could you possibly link me toa page with it.

Small question: Where can I find turts of AMS hacking and HEX editting for pokémon Emerald?
I can't seem to find any on this site (probably my fault)...
And I mean, REALLY beginner turts (I can script very well, but I've never used AMS or HEX editing).

You can find some ASM lessons in the site: pkmnhackersonline.com
In the same site there are some informations about Hex scripting

Since you are a good Scripter Can you give me a command to change the wild pokemon that chases Prof.Brich in Ruby and change it to growlithe

you have to modify that script... if you post the whole script here i tell you what you have to change...
(i'm under Linux now, than I can't use A.Map)

Unlz-gba is annoying me.

Whenever I export a pokemon onto paint and try to recolour it the colours are spazzy. Like, if I do a dark purple, I get grey. How do I fix this?

That's because the image is indexed, that means that there are 16 colors in the sprite. The reason why you get a grey when you use purple is because there is simply no purple in that palette, so it automatically turns the color into the closest color in the palette. This doesn't only happen in UnLZ-GBA, it also happens in any other sprites you export.

Also, there's no way to actually fix it, just copy the sprite onto another Paint file. Then you can index it using IrfanView.

[Cascade'A Stupidity]

Ah. A'rite.

Does it work if you select the "265 colours" option thingy on it?

I think so, I've never really tried. I suggest not to, though. Just use the 16 Color Mode.

[Cascade'A Stupidity]

Sooo... What should I do, step by step? xD

*is slow*

[Medo0]

Simple get your Picture (Be Sure The Size is 64x64 For Pokemon Sprites)
then Got to Irfan View and Open your picture...........
I Suggest to go to Documents and Tuts Forum

[Cascade'A Stupidity]

Ahkay. Thanks.

*downloads IV* xD
