Sorry for the very late replies to some of these posts. I just noticed them and have not been actively hacking pokemon lately :( Anyways, I did find my resources and will re-post them. Best of luck.

Awesome map, I am nowhere close to being this good... Someday, but until then I shall be stuck with much more boring maps. Congrats early ;)

Thank you for clearing up the issues with finding sphere. In my experience I found that using sphere was the easiest. That was me personally, but your mileage could vary. Thank you for the heads up for NTME though

Yes. You need to have your map smaller I believe. You can probably scale it down w/o loss of quality as long as it is indexed. If you use photoshop there is an option to keep the pixels but scale it. Additionally if you would like, pm me your files you have and I'll check it out so I can help...

Sounds like you are chugging away at this map. Firstly, making a separate excel spreadsheet is a good idea. Remember to use the DEC2HEX function to convert it all and then copy/paste the numbers into the original spreadsheet. For the palette numbers, yes they are meant to match the cities and...

Yes, it is simply time consuming. If you look at the excel file, it does convert from decimal to hex with a cell at the bottom. I am sorry that the spreadsheet is that way, but changing it would be quite a pain. I would suggest getting a piece of graphing paper and write in your map. By the end...

You are quite welcome. Let me know if you run into problems. Remember that you should not have quite that many tiles if you use sphere to make the tiles into a tilemap. The largest possible amount of tiles in the map is 30*20 = 600. Granted, 600 tiles means every single tile is unique. About...

Ahh... I was not aware you wanted to do ruby. I believe that the same concepts should apply to this as well. This tutorial was made for fire red, but it should work as long as you deconstruct the map as I did for this game. I would suggest looking at this tutorial for ruby, but I have never...

Thank you for the feedback! I believe that you should be able to insert a completely new map if you wanted. I would suggest if you wanted to use the islands yet, find only the tiles unused and replace them. I happened upon this technique late one night and I am still unsure if there is a much...

Hey everyone, so this is my first tutorial on hacking so give me a bit of slack :) Ask questions and I will answer them to the best of my knowledge. I have been struggling with hacking the world map for quite some time now and I finally got my map completed and not glitched in my game. Every...

As of now, I am still working on my hack - this project started around the new year, but with school I actually now have time to work on it. I started with changing the maps with advance map. While this wasn't exactly what I wanted to do, it showed to what extent I could actually change the...

I really dislike when people post tutorials of the exact same thing. There are about 5 World Map hacking tutorials, yet not one actually worked for me, I made a new way and hopefully my tutorial will be useful. I also dislike how closed this community is in terms of questions - the simple...

You may also want to look at this tutorial to figure out about the pictures shown when going into certain places. You will need to change the sprites in the same palette, or repoint the palette for the badges For this, you must change the flying data and healing locations. I have not had too...

Thank you for the response. I have not found a way yet to fix that block of mine, but a while ago I found that to fix the bottom few tiles, you must add 16 bytes of 00 to your raw tileset. So basically, I just add "00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000" at the end of this RAW file before...

Well, I posted this as a thread a bit ago, but I suppose that my question is more than simple but apparently not a full thread worthy. Either way, I have had quite a few problems with making a new custom world map, and the 3 or 4 tutorials I have followed have all resulted in some type of error...
