I haven't. Could you send me the script it's in just incase it fixes it?

I put 3 different load screens into a .rar file. Just download it from the attachments.
Just put them into the PokemonLoad script. If it still doesn't work, maybe I can help you through MSN or something.

Hey guys,
I've a problem with the origin form of Giratina
I added it to the script "PokemonUtilies" into "pbLoadPokemonBitmapSpecies" and "pbPokemonIconFile" as getting told in the essential wiki. But when I now open the game, take Giratina and give it the Griseousorb, the game crashes
The error is the following:

Exception: NoMethodError
Message: undefined method `pbPokemonIconFile' for #<PokemonIconSprite:0xbaaf760>
PokemonSprite:86:in `pokemon='
PokemonSprite:73:in `initialize'
PokemonScreen:322:in `new'
PokemonScreen:322:in `initialize'
PokemonScreen:572:in `new'

PokemonScreen:570:in `each'
PokemonScreen:570:in `pbStartScene'
PokemonScreen:1179:in `pbPokemonScreen'
PokemonMenu:155:in `pbStartPokemonMenu'

You need a icon for the Origin Giratina forme. Or else it will give you that error.

Is there a new version of Pokemon Essentials?(Not the September 5 one) because whenever I try to leave a map it gives the update to a new Pokemon Essentials error.Also what is the limit of maps you can connect in the map editor?

There is an Icon of the origin giratina form in the folder graphics\icons\ named "icon487_alt.png"
if I delete the script for the icon, the error for the spirte occures when i open the detal-window of giratina, i think it's nearly the same error
my giratina origin form is in graphics\battlers\, named "487_alt","487b_alt", "487s_alt" and "487sb_alt", all are .png

Counting steps

The RPG Maker had a option to put the steps number in one variable.

That's right, but it does no longer work with pokemon essentials
In the meantime, I solved the problem about counting steps myself.
For getting the amount of steps into the variable 150:

Search in the script for "increase_steps" everywhere and put the sentence " [FONT=&quot]$game_variables[150][/FONT]+=1" in the next line everytime (around 12 times). Then it should work properly.

Go to google and type in "pokemon essential wiki", then go to the essential wiki and download the Starter.Kit, should not be that difficult. I would post you a link to the wiki, but I am not able to do so..

Hello everybody!
Got another problem. I would like to create pokemon-specific egg-sprites. I already found the right place in the script where everything about the egg-sprite is handled (PokemonUtilities, Line 1492 onwards) but as I'm still pretty bad in working with ruby I would be really thankful if anybody could give me an example how to modify the script that an egg of a specific pokemon has its own egg-sprite.
I already tried with this code, but it did'nt work:


if pokemon.egg? && isConst?(babyspecies,PBSpecies,:AZURILL)
babyspecies=pbGetBabySpecies(babyspecies)
return AnimatedBitmap.new(sprintf("Graphics/Pictures/egg2"))
elsif pokemon.egg?
return AnimatedBitmap.new(sprintf("Graphics/Pictures/egg"))



Thanks to everyone trying to help me!

Check your connections.txt It's a problem caused due to a map being missing or deleted, but it's still linked to another map.

I have already been searching for solutions for my problem, but i sill don't know the answer.
First, i had an error message which popped up when i entered a linked map. I read this thread fixed it by deleting the connection in the connections.txt file. However, now there is the following problem:
(http without spaces)
h t t p://i1137.photobucket.com/albums/n506/Nemorus/connection1.png

As you may know, this is the map from the essentials called area1 and is connected to area2. I didn't change anything on this map. So if i step on the area2 map, this is gonna happen:

h t t p://i1137.photobucket.com/albums/n506/Nemorus/connection2.png

I am on the other map, but it's all black... i can move on it and do everything, but i can't see it. After a battle the map appears, but then area1 is gone.

Can someone help me?

 

[Nickalooose]

If you're using one of the later versions of Essentials, there is already code for alternate forms. The wiki page on alternate forms only applies to older versions of Essentials. Quick check: if you have the script section PokemonMultipleForms, then you don't need to fiddle with the code. I strongly suspect you have a later version of Essentials, because you have the script section PokemonSprite.

What you need to do is get rid of any script modifications, and rename all your Giratina Origin icons and sprites to have "_1" at the end, rather than "_alt". That should be all you need to do.

If you are using a version made after 4/3/2010, you find this error. The better fix is to use a 4/3/2010 edition.
See https://pokemonessentials.wikia.com/wiki/Connecting_maps for more info about connected maps.

Thanks for the advise! I downloaded all versions of the essentials and tested them. The 3rd april 2010 version was a bit strange with audio, so i took the latest version from the wiki (from 5th september 2010). Now the connections work.
