Uh, the link to the video isn't working.

Oh whoops my bad, didn't notice that:P

Anyway, make sure that the offset you provided the tool is free, and the offset ends with 0 (I forgot the other values that an offset should end).[/COLOR][/B]

I made sure of that, so that's not the issue. Anyways, thanks for the help.

Just starting off an Emerald hack; does anybody know the offset for when Professor Birch gives you your Pokedex at the beginning of the game? I can't find it, even if I search for the dialogue in A-Text. All I want to do is change it so he gives you the National Dex right away, completely forgoing the Regional.

Ok I need a little help about using a rom base. I want to use MDS's Attack and Decap for Fire Red, and I apply it, but how exactly do I make use of the fairy type correctly and such? And is there something I have to do before I patch it to the rom I am going to use, besides it being a clean Fire Red rom?

@DDD: Nope! You probably need to edit the ini files of some tools to make them be able to work with the ROM base though.

What parts of the ini do I need to edit to make it work? Right now I am learning to use Gen III Suite, G3T, MEH Map editor, and XSE.

When you downloaded patch of MrDollSteak, there are already info and guides that you'll need there. And directly patch it into a clean FR rom. Everything that you ask for is already there, on the thread, and on the patch folder when you extracted it. You just gotta READ

Ok thanks, got it all patched. Now I just need video tutorials on how to use each things because I suck at following written instructions ;~;

I'm having a problem with NSE on my mac. I tried opening an indexed sprite, and it looked like this. I followed the steps on a youtube tutorial, and this is what happened. On top of that, I indexed an image with the same results. Any ideas about what's wrong?

I believe these are for the main characters, but I cant remember the rest of the offsets atm.

Looks like a bit depth error to me.

Does anyone have the Emerald offset for the "exit" image in your bag menu?

hello, i wanted to know how to insert new images for events in the map.. like mewtwo or legendary birds have.

Thanks.

Make a new person event, then change the event sprite to whichever legendary, assuming there is a sprite for it

Anyone know how to operate G3T (made by Kurapika) on Mac?

I'm using Anvil Studios to edit a song that I got. The only problem is, it ends on a funny few note, and I want the thing to begin looping right before those notes. Does anyone know how to take off notes in a .mid and end it a bit earlier? It looks like Anvil does it by itself. Cool beans.


@skull: A quick google search gives me a bunch of answers on how to run .exes with certain programs. Good luck!

I keep seeing all these different graphics (pallettes?) in tutorials and such. Where are they coming from?

They're written in the ROM already. Those are the colors that the sprite is limited to.


As for my own question, does anyone know if there's a tutorial on changing the voiceboxes? I'm experimenting in Sappy, but it's slow going and I wish to speed up the process. In addition to that, I remember there being a thread on there being an IPS patch or something for inserting new sounds for the voiceboxes, but I can't find that now. If anyone would share the link to that, it'd be greatly appreciated, thank you.


~EDIT~ If anyone has .mid files for Mother 3 or knows how to extract those(Sappy says it isn't able to, but I've found an incomplete list of .midi files for the game already) then that would be great as well.
