do you know of any good advancemap tutorials? I understand that you have to make everything made up of 8x8 tiles, but all the stuff about palettes and tilemaps etc kind of confuses me. (I know that you have to decrease colour depth to 16 colours, etc but that's about it.)
Ah, I've never heard of that! And I'd recommend you get used to the mechanics of A-Map. It's pretty similar to MEH, and it's not hard to get the hang of.
And if you don't want to do a hack project of your own, you can always join a team. I'm thinking of starting one for my hack, actually; I hate mapping, so I'm hoping to find someone who'll help me out with it.
right now I'm confused as to whether to try and start with advancemap or wait for that new awesome map editor to get out of alpha :B I guess I may need more planning first.
do you go on pokemon showdown? it would be awesome if we could battle :D
I've been ROM hacking off and on for a while, and I'm relearning a bunch of stuff right now, but I'd be happy to help you out. And it's good that you can sprite; I'm still sort of wobbling through spriting, ahaha.
haha, thanks for the message ;u; yeah I joined cause this place seems more active than other forums. I am interested in rom hacking but I am a super beginner - my only strength is spriting pfff. I'd love to talk to you!
Well hello there; I see that you're new, and possibly interested in ROM hacking? I just remade my account, but I've actually been active here on and off for over two years, so if you'd like to talk, feel free!
