Well, but it's possible to apply the changes, then change the offsets/pointers to your own (looking the differences in HxD), and restore the scripts from a backup. Am I wrong?

um
you can't restore the differences of anything before 71AD40
i mean go for it but all you're doing is overwriting what jpan himself did

I'm not talking about overwriting, I'm talking about of repointing what he did to fit in my hack, but I will try it myself. ^^

EDIT: As I said, it worked and now I'm using the behavior hack and some other features without the whole hacked engine. ^^

There is a way to make the Shiny Battle special work with specific trainer pkmn? (Example: The trainer have Bulbasaur/Charmander/Squirtle, then I want to make only Charmander Shiny.)

Also, there is a way to make this same special compatible with givepokemon?

I used the hacked engine an its pretty cool BUT i used a script containing givepokemon command and whenever while playing i come to the point where the player receives his/her starter the givepokemon command crashes the emulator thus restarting the game

Did you use the patch or the tool? (If the tool, which hacks did you apply?)

Also how do you know it was the "givepokemon" command?

umm i used the patch(didn't know there was tool lol) and ik it was the givepokemon command as i tried 3 diff scripts and in all the three when the npc gives you the pokemon thats when it crashed

but don't worry the problem was i had too many rom bases in that hack i tried afresh and now its working :)

Okay good I'm glad you figured it out. It was probably that the ROM bases conflicted. Are you still using the patch as there are some known issues with it, but they have fixes here.

Has anyone managed to get the Wild Pok?mon data switch for the fishing data working? I've tried everything from using loadpointer, variable and even writing directly to the fishing wild data ram shown in the RAM map in his documentation. nothing works. I've got the other 3 data stores to work. Just the fishing one doesn't seem to work. I'm starting to believe it's bugged.

If anyone has cracked this please let me know.

After applying the backsprite switch fix from here, I got a bug that caused the player's backsprite to inherit the default hero palette on every frame after the first.

EDIT:
I'm not sure if anyone else has had that issue, but I found a way to fix it by modifying the assembly routine JPAN had written:

I've tested with a few different backsprites and it appears to work as desired.

Code:

Use the Tool instead of the patch?

From my point of view, that makes it better as it frees up space by clearing scripts that I was never going to use. People are suppossed to use this to build things from scratch, not retread Kanto.

That being said, if you really want to use JPAN's engine and keep all of the in-game scripts, download the hack tool applier in the first post. It will also allow you to choose as many or as little of the features you want.

How would one go about using this?
Is it just a matter of compiling, inserting it in the ROM and the Var 0x4062 will do the rest or...?

For anyone wondering, you should NOT apply this to a Clean Fire Red Rom, but instead, use JPAN's Clearing Patch, that clears out all of the scripts, signposts, and sprites in every map. Otherwise, some bugs may occur. You can find it in the OLD rom hacking thread, for those who can't find it anymore, here is a link.

http://www.pokecommunity.com/showpost.php?p=5005730&postcount=252
(That is his post.)

dead link? can't download it.

Edit: NVM, You don't even need it for the ips.

v1.0 doesn't mean for FireRed 1.0, it's just v1.0 of his tool/ips. You're better off downloading v1.1 because of bug fixes, but it is still applied to FireRed 1.0.
