Changing the battle menu?
Hello there.
I have a little ROM hacking project and I'm having some trouble. I am trying to edit Pokémon FireRed and the ROM hack is not about Pokémon. I want to change the battle menu. In fact, the only problem is the POKéMON option. Can I change it? If yes, how? Your helps are much appreciated ^^ |
Wait. Nobody knows how to change it?
|
Are you simply trying to change the text?
If so, use a hex editor to search for the appropriate string (you'll need to do a bit of trial and error, as there are a lot of "Pokemon" strings) and you can modify it to say what you like. |
Well, I simply tried to change the text "RUN" (with AdvanceText) and changed nearly everything includes "RUN" but no luck.
|
The way the text is stored is a little odd compared to a lot of other strings in the ROM (lots of special data around it) so Advanced Text will have a tough time finding it. You're better off using a hex editor for this one.
Since I had a bit of time I found where all the relevant text starts for you. The strings you want to edit begin at 0x3FE725. I seriously recommend not using Advanced Text as there are a lot of special text commands (such as adding specific colors and shadows) that will probably be messed up by Advanced Text. |
Aw, thank you! I will try to find a hex editor!
|
Are there any hex editors for just Pokémon? I found one but I can't find the string you gave.
EDIT : I learnt it with the hard way. Dug down the entire game with TileMolester, no luck... |
You'll need to use a hex editor that supports table files, and you'll need to find a table file for the GBA games as well.
Some hex editors to consider include GoldFinger, Translhexation and WindHex. The table file should be easy enough to find on Google. |
Oh my god... IT WORKED! Thank you SOOOOO much, Hopeless Masquerade!!
