I've got a major problem... I've been working on a game and everything worked fine. But now at some points in some maps the game restarts :(. There are no scripts or anything and I have no idea what's causing it. I just walk somewhere and all of a sudden the game restarts. Has anyone else had this before? Please help me! I'm uploading a video to show what's happening.

Oh! That's the problem! Thanks :D

Hm, which areas of RAM are unused in Ruby?

[Pellio]

Sorry if this has been answered already, but I couldn't see anything anywhere.
Was just wondering if anybody knew of any hacking tools for Mac OS X? I have downloaded CrossOver which allows me to use Windows programes but only AdvanceMap and unLZGBA actually load up with it. Nothing happens when I try to open AdvanceMart, AdvanceText, OverWorldEditor etc. eventhough they have the CrossOver symbol like the two that do work. Have tried downloading them from different places to see if that helps, just need to know if there's any way to get these programes to run, if I need to download anything else? Or if there are just tools for Macs, would be much easier!

Ok so I pulled some D/P sprites from a Ruby hack and am trying to put them in a Fire Red rom(using unlz.gba) the problem occurs when i hit write to rom.

I put in the image on the left but after hitting write to rom the image on the left appears in the game. This happens with pretty much every sprite I try to insert. So how do I fix this?

Image isn't indexed (hasn't been reduced to the GBA's 16-color standard). When you pulled it from the other rom, it's been saved as a full color image, rather than a 16-color one. Download IrfanView, and reduce the pallete with that... Oh! And you have recieved permission to use the sprite, yes?

To everyone else! Anyone know empty RAM areas in Ruby? La-de-da...

The reson could be that they are too big. They are already indexed as they were already in a hack. Re-insert them using torferno-x's new pokemon inserting. Insert it into blank space, and see what happens.

I change a pallete in APE, then I check in UnLZ.GBA. The pallete is corrupted. How do I fix those kind of things?

I imported a 16-color pal.

This is how it looks in UnLZ.GBA:

Uhm... maybe they aren't Lz77 compressed palette's: so you have to deselect the option "compressed palettes (LZ77)

But if I un-check it, the colors of the Actual pallete are weird just like Next Pro :p
They are LZ77 compressed. The colors match Pineco's sprite.

Why is it a problem if you can compile a script O.o

Is there a way to use the behaviour hidden without making the game restart?

Plz... I need to know...
I'd like to insert Fakemon into my hack...

[Pokepal17]

I got some qusetions.

1) At which offset in the Ram in Fire Red, is the player's palette byte stored?
2) What is the offset for the irls backsprites for Fire Red in Tile Molester?
3) How do I change the trainer cards in Fire Red?

I've got a glitch in my game, I'm not sure what caused it, but here goes:

It's a script that involves a battle between two team Rocket grunts, after the battle everything looks glitched.

Spoiler:

The things with circles around them shouldn't be there. Can anyone tell me what the problem is? The script goes on though... but the glitched stuff stays there.

[ckret2]

I've got some glitchy images in my pause menu:



I've used AdvanceMap, Overworld Editor RE, Starter Map Chooser Advance, Title-Screen Cry Changer, and XSE on the hack so far. It looks this glitchy from the moment the game starts, so I doubt it's any of the scripts that are making things look funny. (Plus, there's only one script in this version of the hack, and it's a simple talking script.) Of the above tools, I'm most inclined to suspect the Title-Screen Cry Changer for causing this, because I haven't heard of any similar problems with any of the other tools, but I haven't heard any testimonial about the Title-Screen Cry Changer at all.

If this is the biggest problem my hack has, I'll be perfectly happy, since this is relatively minor, and I think that any players who are searching for ROM hacks have a pretty good knowledge of what the items in the Start menu do. Still, if it's indicative of a bigger glitch just waiting to kick in, I'd rather know now.

Can someone tell me what the offset in Unlz (fire red) the I can find the question mark sprite?? Or where I can find it on the internet. You know, the one that is for a pokemon that doesn't exist? It is a question mark inside of a circle, and it is black and white. I'm sure you have seen it once or twice. Here is the backsprite, but I cannot find the front sprite.

If I'm not mistaken they are the same image for front and back sprites.
