Why not just make a warp script?

Use Advance Map.
It's the easiest way to do it. Seriously.

From there you can add new events including signposts and simply edit or make new scripts with a script editor like PKSV.

A script for a signpost in PKSV would look something like this (if I were to do it):

Spoiler:

#org 0x8749000
'-----------------------------------
msgbox 0x874900B ' TRAINER HOUSE\nThe C...
callstd MSG_SIGN ' Signpost-style message
end


#org 0x874900B
= TRAINER HOUSE\nThe Club for Top Trainer Battles

I hope that helps a little.

I have a few questions

1. How do I change the options for your rival's default names

2. I have a glitch in one of my hacks and don't know what caused it or how to fix it. It is not game stopping but in every battle the whole battle is changed. You simply pick a move, give and receive damage. There is no " XXX used Tackle." or whatever.

Thanks for your time

I'm running Sappy 2005 and when I try to assemble my .s file, I get this:

Run Time Error '53':

Then....

Sappy 2005 has quit working...
Windows is looking for a solution...



What can I do?

Ok, this really beginning to frustrate me. HackMew's A-Trainer won't work and I have absolutely no idea why.

Nor do I.

How about telling us exactly what you're doing and what's happening? :/

[Sawakita]

hi, i have a question about gb/gbc: do you know the sprite compression algorithm in blue/red and in gold/silver? I ask this because i'd like to put some gold pokemon in pokemon blue and change some pokemon blue sprites with the corresponding of gold (for example change old caterpie sprite with gold-silver caterpie sprite).
Thank you in advance for help

Are there any programs that hack the sounds (like battle themes, etc.)?

[PeregrineFig]

Does anyone know how to edit the default name selections for the player and rival in FireRed without AdvanceText? I couldn't find the names in my hex editor, so I'm at a loss as to how to do this.

warp... script? What's that and how do I make one? Is it regular scripting for in the game? (like to get in the buildings and stuff?) Or is it like making AR codes? I think I understand what you're saying.

A warp script, as in a script that makes you warp somewhere. I can't script adequately yet, so I wont say more for fear of leading you astray with incorrect information.
Also, for future reference, I wouldn't associate AR codes with hacking- you'll only confuse yourself.

Sappy is your friend, along with Mid2AGB. (I hear mid2agb is illegal to have, kinda like a rom :\)

Just do this:
1. Make a warp to the map you want.
2. attach it to the map on a warp-enabled tile
3. do the same on the other map
4. play the game and use the warp to test the new area you have.

I had the same issue, because I had a cave that was between a few locations, so I did just so.

I have a tutorial here that has a program to make the music, and has a few links to some other useful programs and tutorials. It should prove rather useful.

I got this error

20100509|211134|5.1.2600|0.9.1|DrawTile8|9|modLZ77|Subscript out of range|3

And it kept popping up, no matter how many times I clicked "Ignore." And I tried it with a clean ROM, with both Fire Red and Ruby, nothing has worked.

[Newpkmnhack]

Pokescript

I got into doing scripting and im doing quite well but i just want to seek someones advice.

Im using the pokemon fire red rom and im trying to do a script simular to when oak comes to the player when trying to leave pallet town with no pokemon. what im trying to do is when i stand on a script block i want a person to be seen and walk over to me. how ever i want him to be hidden like prof oak is before the script is activated ive tried to put the sprite as hidden in advancedmaps and when scripting use showsprite command but it just runs the script with the script hidden.

jon

Bumping this again. It also seems to me that Windows never seems to find a solution...

Sorry for this newbish question, but how does one open an .ips or .aps file? I've downloaded some games from the Hack Showcase but my emulator won't open them.

You need to apply them to the game. Use Hackmew's A-ptch to apply them to the proper game.

[PeregrineFig]

Is there any tool I can use to edit the ability names? I want to decapitalise EVERYTHING in this new hack, and using a hex editor would be incredibly time-consuming, but that's what I'll do if there's no other way.

Does anybody know how to make a pokedex page without deleting one?

Have you tried Wichu's decapitalization patch? Or is for R/S/E?

I don't think that is possible yet.

This is for a hack of Ruby. (Decapitalising all 386 pokemon was so tedious, I'm dreading doing it for items, moves, abilities, and pokedex pages too T.T)
