You have to index the sprite and it has to be the same size as the one you're replacing.

I'm new at this, and I'm trying to replace Oak's sprite with my own. I read the tutorials on here and I tried to use both RSBall and unLZ.

I have two problems:
1. In RSBall, it won't let me import the bitmap
2. In unLZ the sprites (from the original game) look screwed up (rectangular badly pixelated boxes of bright color)

I opened the same rom with TLP to look at it, and it had the same badly colored boxes.

I thought, well, maybe my ROM is corrupted...

But it did the same thing for a ROM that I never have touched before... and it did the same thing...

Here is an example of the boxes http://i18.*.com/2rotlp4.jpg

Also, on a different note, how do you index pictures?

You can index sprites with many programs such as IrfanView.
TLP and unLZ have boxes like that. You mustn't edit them.
It's not only those boxes, there are the sprites too.

I tried using pokepic but the colour of back pic and normal pic always can't be the same,
it always messed up, like this:http://img204.imageshack.us/img204/2226/untitledtx4.png
(I try import Darkrai by replacing mew)

Then I try using UNLZ gba but same result...why? Can someone help?

Maybe the Darkrai sprite's size is bigger than Mew's and that's why it won't work.

I've changed my ROM files so that they automatically open with VBA, but now my ScriptEd won't compile correctly. When I select a ROM with ScriptEd, It just says the name. It doesn't say ".gba:" so I add that in and script as normal and it doesn't compile correctly. There's no error message and I know I'm saving to the correct ROM it just doesn't go in. Is there any way to put my ROMs back to just being a file that Windows doesn't know what to open with? If not, is there any way I can adapt ScriptEd to work correctly?

Is there a program other than Amplifier that can change the TMs/HMs a Pokemon can learn? I'm having some problems installing Amplifier.

shirokiryuu February 26th, 2007 7:30 PM

^^; Thanks Christos, I found out the indexing option in The Gimp

and after clicking forever I found the sprites

EDIT: I have a question, If I want to edit the introduction scene with Professor Oak, do i edit his trainer sprite, or is there another sprite for that scene?

Swimmer♂ February 27th, 2007 10:22 AM

Ok, i 've figured out how to edit the badges, but i was wondering in anyone one could definitely tell me if i could add new labels (in ruby) or not. (i am aware that it has been answered but there was not a definite "yes" or "no") If anyone knows how plz help me out!
Thanks

How to change the attack of some trainer's pokemon? I try before using PET but the attack there is made up of strange language...

shirokiryuu February 27th, 2007 8:15 PM

How do I edit uncompressed sprites? I'm trying to change Professor Oak at the begining, and I found his offsets...

but now I don't know where I should start....

Cless February 28th, 2007 11:58 AM

I've searched for hours, I can't find anything on how to do this...

Is there a possible way to change music? (I know about Sappy, but... It's impossible to use. o.O)

Thanks.

D-Trogh February 28th, 2007 12:21 PM

Yeah.. use a HEX-Editor.. Sappy should do :\

Q: Does anyone know how to use MadFenix Editor ?

Cless February 28th, 2007 1:32 PM

I seriously with someone would post a Sappy tutorial, sigh. Barely anybody knows how to use it... Anyways, I don't know HEX... And, it's wayyy too hard to learn, meh. >.<

Ok, if I edit a Pokémon's stats and movesets in Ruby and transfer them to Diamond, will the changes be applied in the Diamond ROM? Or would they reset when traded?

Type in the offset you used for the script in the spot (in Advance Map) for your person that says 'script offset', and in Elite Map, go to the Objects tab, and then below that, click on the People tab, then find the person's number and type in the person's offset in the spot that says 'Script'. It's pretty simple.

How do I find the offset?

The stats won't change however you edit them, with a gameshark, action replay or if you hack the ROM etc.

use a hex editor and a table file and search for the first line or so of what prof oak says, then highlight it and edit it. if you're not sure go to the document and turoials section and look in the old documents thread. click on the link and there is a very helpful tutorial at the very bottom (119)
hope this helps ya!

Hello,

I think that I'm in phase when I desperately take every help I should get. Please tell me how to edit palletes of tilesets. I was searching even Google for any tut, but no use of any for ROM hacking. So, does anyone know where to find tutorial, or how to help this desperate person? Thank you very much.
