    Hi, I keep getting this error in Advancemap after I try to access a new map I saved.

    AdvaneMapError(2):Cannot read bytes beyond end of file!
    What's up with this?

    Hello, I'm trying to hack Pokemon Gold, and I was wondering:

    Whenever I resize maps (in this case, I made them bigger) in GoldMap, they always mess up in-game, such as part of Route 27 appearing on part of my enlarged New Bark Town. Now I realize I can't simply resize the maps just for fun. How do I fix this problem?

    Thanks in advance!

    hello, yeah, theres over 150 pages of posts, it would take forever to look through all of them to find out if my question was asked or not, but, i'm told that there is a way to edit the pokedex data, is this true? and if so, how/what tool do i use?

    when a person gives the player a pokemon, is it possible to change the ball that it's given in?
    (instead of a pokeball.. change it into a safari ball?)

    I have tried editing trades in advance generation games, but in Gold I believe you cannot do so.

    I think A-Text or Hex can edit the data, just look near the Pokedex entries.

    Did you try editing there sprites in Pokepic or RSBall? Because I think they cannot be found in unLZ-GBA.

    Find the data of the map in hex, then find the pointers of the map data and repoint the data. GoldMap is glitchy with this.

    A-Text or Hex would be your answer.

    It appears you might have to reinsert a new one, with the right size. Even though, that does make your hack different xD

    Can i ask u question?
    My question:
    What is an .ips file for?

    .ips is the legal way to distribute ROMs, this is done by patching.

    so it's possible in firered?
    and i mean when a character just gives you a pokemon
    not a trade

    I do not think it is possible unless you find a way to do it using ASM.

    I'm not exactly sure how to do that in Pokemon Gold (this is my first time hacking ROMs)...is there a tutorial somewhere that could help me? (I haven't been able to find one)

    Does anyone know how to make new pokedex entries for pokemon?

    I put in some new pokemon for my hack and every time I capture one the game will turn black and freeze.

    It's just because they have no pokedex data. so when you want to battle these new pokemon you just have to disable the pokedex and then re-enable it afterwards. :)

    I was pretty sure before hand but I want to actually let the players be able to catch these in the wild. Would I just have to disable the pokedex for what route you could find them? If so, how do you do that?
