Script Help Thread (DO NOT REQUEST SCRIPTS)

[Johto_legend]

hi there im having trouble doing a script like when you first meet processor oak i wanna do something like that can you please help

If you mean the event when he stops you and takes you to his lab, this is a movement script. you have to add a script event in Advance map on the spot where the player will be stopped. then you would use applymovement so that you would follow someone. below is a basic example

Spoiler:

dynamic 0x??????
#org @start
lock
msgbox @wait 0x6
applymovement 0x??(oak) @walk
waitmovement 0x0
applymovement 0xFF @faceoak
msgbox @pokemon 0x6
applymovement 0x?? @move
applymovement 0xFF @move
waitmovement 0x0
release
end

#org @wait
=Wait!You need a Pokemon!

#org @walk
#raw 0x??
#raw 0x??
#raw 0x??
#raw 0x??
#raw 0x??
#raw 0xFE

#org @faceoak
#raw 0x0(face down)
#raw 0xFE

#org @pokemon
=You need a pokemon to fight other pokemon! I'll give you a pokemon!

#org @ move
#raw 0x??
#raw 0x??
#raw 0x??
#raw 0x??
#raw 0x??
#raw 0x??
#raw 0xFE

basically i locked the player when he steps on a tile, then you see a msgbox that has oak saying to wait. then we see oak moving to the player. the player turns to face oak. then another msgbox from oak. then by making them both follow @move script, it creates a follow-me script, in which is looks like the player is following other OW.

How exactly would you script a Vs. Seeker battle?

I guess I'm not as good at scripting as I thought. This is the pokemon battle with marowak at pokemon tower in fire red. How can I change the Marowak to something else?

 

[spidermight340]

hi does anyone know the script so you can go passed a person event after you beat a certain trainer ?

 

[Geogebra]

There is no takepokemon command. You can add an asm command, such as this designed by HackMew:

But you can't return the Pokemon once it's gone.

Or you can use the built-in Daycare system, using this tutorial:

But then you can't really use the Daycare in-game, or at least have access to it while Pokemon are used to store it as a non-daycare. But that will at least allow you to return the Pokemon once it's taken away, and to choose the specific Pokemon the player gives away.

Thanks for the answer! The last one with the daycare solution sounded like a perfect solution for me(I didn't understand a thing of the asm-thingy :P). However, first I tried to edit the script, adding some stuff, everuthing except the part with the "notthesame" worked. It didn't matter if I chose another pokemon than Pikachu, for instance when I choosed tangela it would remove tangela and say "goodbye pikachu", and not "this is not pikachu".. I can't explain why this is happening cause the script seems to be "right", have any idea?

Oh, and sorry for late reply, have been kind of busy lately, but thanks anyways :)

please wrap your script with SPOILER or CODE tags next time.
anyway, change the hex value of the PKMN (in red) to the PKMN you want. Remember that hex values and decimal numbers are not the same.
Example, PIKACHU's decimal value is 25, but its hex value is 0x19...

 

[eishiba]

use the command checktrainerflag...

How come you can't edit the script through Advanced Map using XSE?
I also did the normal stuff. Saved the file as rbc in word pad. Compiled script, then found my file and found 4 offsets and picked the first one, then assigned and burned. Then copied the offset and pasted into the the offset on advanced map and it doesn't work.

 

[deoxys121]

Hi, I'm working on a Ruby hack, and I am trying to find the script in the ROM that gives the Pokedex for the first time. If somebody could simply give me the offset of the script that gives the Pokedex, I would really appreciate it. Remember, this is a Pokemon Ruby hack.

before any one does this for you i recomend updating xse to version 1.1.1

 

[Infernhawk]

thats the version I have. I don't understand why its not working. all my other tools work fine (accept unlz gba)

 

[RedGalaxy]

Okay, I followed diegoisawsome's "GivePokemon" script to the letter... and it works superbly.

However, I have a problem. When I try to name my pokemon(bulbasaur), it has me re-nickname my starter(charmander).

However, when I restart the game, and get Bulbasaur first, and Charmander second... when I receive Charmander, it has me re-nickname Bulbasaur.

Is there a way to fix this?

Also... say I want this pokemon to have a nickname already... would it be possible to give the Bulbasaur a nickname, and not go through the naming process? (like when you trade a pokemon with an NPC or another Player.)

Use 800000 for a pointer at the start of your script. It'll work.

[Johto_legend]

when using applymovements, do sprites stay where they end in there movements? like if you re enter the map, they will be in the location where the movement ends.

 

[RedGalaxy]

@Blazequaza... that doesn't fix a darned thing... if it is, somehow, suppose to fix it... could you explain what might have gone wrong? (I replaced all pointers and nothing happened... I also replaced the Dynamic Offset (as the 800000 looked more like a "#dynamic 0x800000" (which appears in the example provided, and still, nothing happened...

If anyone could... I still need help...

No, they will go back to their original postion once you leave and re-enter the map. You can set up a simple level script that will utilise the movesprite2 command that will always be activated when you move enter the map so long as you have set a flag (I find the script types 3, 5 and 7 to be best for this).

Change in red.

Keep in mind that I'm not 100% sure on this, but the Pokemon which is to nicknamed should chosen through the value assigned to the 0x800D variable (Which is generally done through a special that takes you to your party screen at the Name Rater). Since you want a defined party member named you should just need to set the variable to its position. So long as the Pokemon you want to name remains at the top of your party, you'll need to set 0x800D to 0x0 before calling the naming routine (Because it always going to be set to 0x1 when you ask whether it should be named).

As for the hidesprite problem, did you put the flag set (201) in the 'Person ID' field in Advance Map?
