Okay so I'm probably just dumb but I was working on making a fun emerald from and when I went to test the changes, nothing had actually changed. I added an evolution to Beautifly and Dustox and neither worked, among other things. I feel like it has to do with .ini stuff because I don't really know what that is but a quick tutorial or something would be great because I'm really confused. ((Side note: What are the spawn evolution types?))

Downloaded this because I can't bear to use pge on anything. I am using Dizzy egg's fresh emerald battle engine and expanded move tables, so all the level up learned move tables are stored with 3 bytes per move, not 2.
First thing I did was change the pointer you have in the rom for this, from 2 to 3. This just made it change the identifying byte of the rom without asking me and write a giant new waste of space ini with a 2 in its place. Then i decided to set the "use standard ini" byte to True and copy paste in my edited data over the top of the standard [bpee] data. This resulted in an error message about how malformed the ini was. I double checked, my values for everything that differs from the standard rombase (so move tables, move number, move names, ability number, etc) were all correct and working fine in the editor, and I tried making it pretend I had jambo151's patch on it but it just kept either reverting my changes or saying it was bugged. The only times I got it to read correctly were when it read bulbasaur's moves as ((((tackle)))) lv0, heat wave lv22 swallow lv 1 ((((leech seed))) lv0 etc!
It should be reading ((((tackle))) space 1, growl space 1, (((leech seed))) space 0
I also tried setting the value to 4, which obviously didn't work. It seems to be screwing up the level completely, but I mean it's pretty clear what's going on. PGE finds no issue at all once I've edited the ini correctly. Any idea what I've done wrong??
spawn evolution types are nincada making shedinja, I think.
What's possibly happened is you've made two tables for evolution data, one of which is referenced by the game itself and the other of which is a massive dud left earlier in the rom so the first one found by this thing when it searches. Have you been asked to repoint things or ticked any boxes asking old data not to be overwritten??

Thats why you are suggested to use PGE.
this tool is no longer being updated and PGE has support for 3 byte learnset.

ew no, with pge you have to scroll down to the move rather than type its name. it's straight up the worst possible ui for entering in move data, I'd rather just use windhex
Anyone looking for a solution, what I did instead was go into the src folder in the main folder of the battle engine, and find the c file marked "Learnsets" and edit it. It's so, so much easier than pge. Shoutout to blah on the irc.

What's the right way, man? I can't enter in the precise name of moves on my copy of your software, so I have to just keep moving to a rough location and tapping the first letter to scroll through. That's a pain in the ass for anything with more than say 200 moves.
Typing things out into the c files in the battle upgrader is easier and faster, and also makes changing the order a piece of cake with copy and paste. The same benefit is there for hex editors! Typing the two bytes I need off of the bulbapedia list of moves takes way less time than hitting the letter s 5 times in a row, clumsily missing the move I want, and having to scroll up and do it again. Am I missing a secret keyboard shortcut? I haven't found any yet!

Type part of name, then hit the down arrow.

Can someone help me add sprites to fire red using this? After adding the front sprite I try adding the back sprite but for some reason, the pallet changes. I check to make sure all the colors were the same and they are, I don't know how to fix this could someone help me?

I don't know how to fix your issue, but I know that if it also happens with Wichu's Advanced Series then there's something wrong with your sprite.

Here is a screenshot of the issue. I noticed that the order that the pallet is in switches for some odd reason. maybe that could be the problem.

Okaaaaay? It's because the layout of a sheet that Pokemon uses should be "Normal Front, Shiny Front, Normal Back, Shiny Back". That's what those boxes are for. Your best shot? Make a 256x64 spritesheet.

Ok, I tried this and the Normal sprites worked but the shinnies didn't. I also checked how the other sprites were laid out and its "Front Normal - Back Normal - Front Shinny - Back Shinny". Also the Advance series doesn't have working downloads and Norton says the version I have is unsafe.
