[Archive] Script help thread

[destinedjagold]

no, I haven't yet.
I'm still finishing this looooong script where I should put on water.

but I'll try your advice later. thankies~

Alright since i was told to put this question here, I will.
Under normal(pokescript) circumstances, is it possible to make a script like when you use secret power to open a hole?
and sorry if this sounds like a request but, if possible, can anyone show me how to make one?

 

[Veng3anc3]

Yeah, you can.. but um, I'm not entirely sure how to make it do the whole "GO SLAKOTH!" *BOOM hole in wall* (I'm assuming your using ruby, right?)
I'll edit this with the basic of the script, I'll tell you what to fill in.

The script would go a little like this..:

#org $start
setmaptile 0xA 0xD 0x1 0x0
special 0x8E
release
end

Explanation..:

Spoiler:

Nice and short. setmaptile is set out like this.
[setmatile] [X-Co-ordinate] [Y-Co-ordinate] [Tile Number] [Movement allowed?]
So in my short script, we have:
X Co-ordinate = 10 or 0xA
Y-Co-ordinate = 13 or 0xD
Tile = Noramal Grass(in tileset 0 [Fire Red]) or 0x1
Movement Allowed = Yes or 0x0

WE can find our X and Y Co-ordinates in Advance map, which has been shown earlier. We can also find our tile number in Advancemap. the number depends on what tileset we are using aswell. So Hold your mouse over a tile in the right pane. In the little status bar at the bottom on the far left, you should have Block: XX Offset: XXXXXX
Movement allowed has two possible options.

* 0x0 = Passable
* 0x1 = Blocked off

So what's the special there for?
This special will reset the map so that it allows the tile to set. Without this, you'll have to leave the screen and come back before it will actually work

Credit to thethethe.. I'm just lazy to explain it myself :D
Also, if you would like me to right you a script that uh, well, basicly, if you want me to right you a script that will do exactly the same as the secret power. Just tell me.. I'll have a go for you.

Here's the script:

#org $begin
lock
faceplayer
message $yoplayer
$yoplayer 1 =Yo \v\h01! I hear\n PROF.ELM discovered\n some new POKéMON.
boxset 6
release
end

Since it's a normal message box, I don't see any problems.

 

[Megiddo-san]

Does it say user cancel or file not found when u compile?

 

[Darthatron]

Here's the script:

Since it's a normal message box, I don't see any problems.

I don't use PokeScript, but in other scripting languages you need to use a different order... Try:

#org $begin
lock
faceplayer
message $yoplayer
boxset 6
release
end

#org $yoplayer 1 =Yo \v\h01! I hear\n PROF.ELM discovered\n some new POKéMON.

I think that will work. :P

 

[destinedjagold]

Here's the script:

Since it's a normal message box, I don't see any problems.

hm... I think the space between words and the equal sign is causing ya problems... :\

why not try this one...

#org $begin
lock
faceplayer
message $yo
boxset 6
release
end

#org $yo
$yo 1 = Yo! \v\h01! I heard  PROF.ELM\n discovered some new POKéMON.

Any help would be appreciated so it would be nice if you could try to make a script like that.
anyways i have another question about a script.
I know how to make a simple national dex script but can anyone tell me how to make it possible to insert the "you got a pokemon" music when your dex is updated and also to make the character who updates it "fly" away like your rival in lilycove city?
Here is the script i have right now but i don't know where to add the other stuff like the music and movements.

#org $start
lock
faceplayer
message $dex
boxset 6
special 0x16F
release
end

#org $dex
$dex 1 =Elm: Proffesor Oak told me \nthat there are foreign wild\lpokemon ahead. So he has told me to\lupdate your pokedex.\p\v\h01 hands Elm the pokedex.\p......\lThere!\lYour pokedex is updated!\l Enjoy!

Help would be greatly appreciated.
Oh and i'm using a firered rom.

 

[Megiddo-san]

You'd put the fanfare after the special I think. I don't know about the fly thing.

 

[loitraitim]

I need the script of the oldman in CherryGrove City, he will lead us to visit houses and after that he gives us items Townmap! :D

Who can help me :|

 

[Megiddo-san]

This is a script help thread, not a script request thread. Sorry and there used to be a script request thread. If you want a script, pm a scripter you know, if any.

[WindBlows]

Uhm... Hi.
I have a problem. How can I make an earthquake on FR with pokescript without using 'special 0x136'. That special doesn't work though.
How can I do it?
Thanks. See you!

 

[Master_Track]

u need to use the special ^^''
set it like this:
#raw 0x2F 0x4B 0x01
setvar 0x8004 0x0
setvar 0x8005 0x3
setvar 0x8006 0x9
setvar 0x8007 0x2
special 0x136
pause 0x10


i'm not sure what every setvar means, but as far as I know the 8006 sets the duration.
u can change the pause, of course.

Hi guys! I need a fast help!

I made a script which schould do the following :

1) A person says : "Hey, PLAYER! Are you..." --> It does.
2) Give egg and print message "You recived egg!" --> It does.
3) Person says : "Good luck for adventure!" --> It doesn't!!!
4) Person goes away and sprite dissapers --> It does.

If you go 1 step Up/Down/Left/Right after the script, then the person appears again!

Please, I need your help right now because I want to release the Beta1 Version of my Hack.

#org $begin

faceplayer
message $wait

#raw 0x7A 0x93 0x00

message $gotit
$gotit 1 = You received an egg!
boxset 6
message $seeya
applymovement 0x07 $1
pausemove 0
#raw 0x53 0x07 0x00
setflag 0x201
waitfanfare
release
end

#org $wait
$wait 1 = Hey, [PLAYER]! Are you leaving now?\pI will miss you. But before you\ngo, I want you to obtain this.\pTake care of it, okay?

#org $seeya
$seeya 1 = Good luck for your adventure!\p

#org $1
$1 1 ; #binary 0x04 0x06 0x06 0x06 0x04 0x06 0x06 0x06 0x06 0x05 0xFE

 

[Megiddo-san]

Try adding #raw 0x53
#raw 0x07
#raw 0x00
before the setflag
