Simple Questions (SEARCH BEFORE ASKING A QUESTION)

[jdb1984]

Using Advance map, I decided to build a shop in Dewford, by using the shop tilesets, and copying the inside of Oldale town's shop.

Yet, despite that, AdvanceMart doesn't recognize that there's now a shop in Dewford, and it's selling the same stuff as Oldale. Otherwise, the shop works like normal.

All I wanted to do is make a small change and have them sell Fresh Water rather than Potions (with Dewford being a coastal town, and Soda available in the next town, it makes sense). Any way I can change it, or at least have AdvanceMart recognize it as a legitimate shop?

[jdb1984]

I'm hacking Emerald.

I built a shop in Dewford with Advancemap. The outside was done by hand (still got to fix a part of the tiles so I have a sandy beach instead of a small grass patch), and the inside was copied from Oldale town's pokemart, with the warps changed so the player exiting ended up in Dewford like s/he should.

However, the problem is that Advancemart doesn't recognize it, so I can't change the items sold. Not a huge deal, except that I wanted to add Fresh Water (They ARE on a beach, and Soda Pop is available in the next town anyway. So it makes some sense).

Is there something I can do so AdvanceMart notices the new mart? Or is there a way to change the items sold without it?

Yes, you could script it. You can use the pokemart command.
I hope you have a grip on some XSE.

Spoiler:

#org @start
.
.
pokemart @pointer
.
.
end

#org @pointer
#raw word 0x(item value)
.
.
#raw word 0x0

The pointer after the pokemart command directs the script to the item values that denotes items that will appear on the screen. You can enter multiple items just using #raw word 0x(item value) for multiple items. You should know the item values in hex; For Example, Fresh Water would be #raw word 0x1A . #raw word 0x0 is used to terminate the item line, hence should be used after the item values.

Is it possible to create new labels on advanced map?
Im hacking a fire red rom and when i create a new map it automatically is associated to an existent label. The problem is when i access to that map on game it gives the label name to it.

For example
I created a new map and it was associated to pallet town.
I also created a warp on route 6 to a garden (the map i created).
When i enter the garden by route 6, the name of it is pallet town.

Hey guys. I'm trying to figure out how to edit (add) text that is shown when you use an attack. For example. When Dunsparce uses splash attack I want the text to say "Dunsparce use hyperbeam! What do you mean you don't know hyper beam? Dunsparce used splash" (I changed splash's name to hyper beam)

(im using fire red
Thanks!

You mean changing "but nothing happened..." to "Dunsparce used Hyper Beam!" [...]? If yes then you have to find this text in hex editor.

1. Download Thingy32 and Hex Workshop (google it)
2. Make your "character set" (link: http://datacrystal.romhacking.net/wi..._FireRed_-_TBL) in TaBuLar (link: http://www.romhacking.net/utilities/55/) and save as Thingy TBL.
3. Search in Thingy your text which is shown in game (I think it's "but nothing happened...). Capital and lowercase characters are IMPORTANT. If you have part of the text in new line then search only for part in the one line. (example:
"But nothing
happened"
so search only for "but nothing")
4. If Thingy finds your text in game, then look for your text offset (for example 403F4C).
5. Then write this offset in notepad and reverse it (so it will be 4C3F40).
6. Open Hex Workshop.
7. Search for your reversed offset (so try to find 4C3F40 - normally search for your offset). That's called pointer.
8. When you find pointer you have to write script in XSE:

Spoiler:

#dynamic 0x0800000
#org @string
= Dunsparce used Hyper Beam! [...]

If the text is too long write "/n" instead of space. So it will be:
Dunsparce used/nHyper Beam! [...]
9. Then compile your script and copy offset (for example 80A0C0)
10. Then reverse it, so C0A080 and overwrite previous pointer to new (so if you have 4C3F40 then click 4C and write 80A0C0)
11. Enjoy your new text!

I hope it works
Sorry for my bad english...

This was helpful, but I wanted to add the text before he uses the attack. What you're speaking of wouldn't happen until after he uses the attack

Hi, I'm looking for a Fire Red/Leaf Green hack tool where I can just edit the trainers pokemon, what levels they are, and what moves they have.

Sorry but I think it's not possible to make that for only one attack...
MAYBE you can do it with ASM but I don't know

I've got a bit of a problem with my hack. I've only edited 2 scripts in the game. The script for prof. Oak in his lab and when he stops you from trying to leave Palette Town without a Pokemon. The first script gives you the National Dex and the second was only edited to change movements when you walk to the lab. Now, after you get the Pokedex anytime you speak to Oak, the game freezes.

Also (I'm not sure if this is related to the first problem) after leaving Virridian City and entering the building leading to Virridian Forest, if you try to head back to Virridian City the game will freeze at the bottom of route 2. The game lets you continue to Pewter City, on to Celadon and so forth, and you can back track to Pewter just fine. If you leave Virridian and enter Route 2, you can go back to Virridian just fine. It only freezes when you have entered the building leading to Virridian Forest and back track to route 2. Anyone have a clue where I should look for an error?

Did you repoint the scripts? It's possible the new (probably bigger) scripts over-wrote the other scripts. This would cause the game to crash when those scripts run.

Exclamation is 0x15 I believe
Confusion is 0xB1, found here:

http://www.pokecommunity.com/archive.../t-209508.html

That has a bunch. Otherwise you'll have to look yourself.

Best way (and the longest) is to find out manually.
Just create a random person event at the beginning of you're game with a small message script and including sound 0x??

The first sound starts at 0x0 and goes all the way to 0xFF.

It's long a tedious but at least you know what each sound is =]

Hi. so im new at hacking. Can I make branch evolutions to a non branch evolution? for example can I add To the Bagon line an evolution with fire stone, that it evolves into Charizard. But if i dont use fire stone then it evolves into Salamence. I hope you understand what i mean

[Jay the penguin]

How would you make a time based event? For example: how could you put in a clock in FIRE RED? also how could you make an event depending on the date.

oh and im using XSE

For an in-game clock or date/time system, you need an ASM hack.

You can't run scripts on a timer even with a clock installed into the game, but there are several ways to run them very frequently. (For example, using JPAN's walking script hack, or hacking the cmda6/walking-asm functionality.) Once your script is actually running, you should be able to check the time on the clock.

Edit evolutions with YAPE.

Does anyone know the Hall of Fame data STRUCTURE and OFFSET for Pokemon Ruby?
I am trying to edit my past Hall of Fame records.

[swiftgallade46]

Can anyone tell me the offset I should put into Advance- Map to change Proffessor Birch giving you the Pokedex to him giving you the Nationaldex? This would be for Emerald and help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Read the requirements of the post before using the tutorial. You have to script in order to enable the National dex, but it's easy stuff.

You should really search this stuff on Google. To edit Pokémon, trainers, Pokémon levels, etc. A-Trainer or PET would do the trick for you. Google 'em.

Hello all.

I started work on a Let's Play of Pokemon Crystal a little while ago (on VisualBoy Advance), and I was hoping to find an editor or whatever that would let me change the evolution requirements of pokemon that require trading (as I obvious can't evolve them otherwise). I'm not sure if editor is the correct term, but that should get the gist across. Do you have any suggests? As far as I can tell YAPE doesn't work on gen 2 games. Thanks!

I did a search for this, but being new to the forums I have no idea how well I did, but obviously my search was unsuccessful.

Whats the palette offset for the background of the trainer card?

You can find the default background colour in the pallet starting at 0xE991B8. I'm not sure if it changes when the card ranks up though...
