[ARCHIVE] Simple Questions (SEARCH BEFORE ASKING A QUESTION)

Ok guys, quick question. I have been working on my hack, using fire red, and Advanced Map. I made a new connection, and since then, every time I try to leave a building, the game resets to the title screen. When I try to start the game over, it leads to a black screen, but has my music playing. What am I to do, has anyone else had this issue? If yes, how did you fix it?

Thanks for the help, but could you elaborate about the hex? If I want to make the multichoice boxes say cyndaquil, charmander, and torchic would I have to find a box to replace it with more characters than them? Could I put it in an unused offset space? Could I use a 6-choice command and make it 3 choices so I wouldn't overwrite?

Well shorten the names to make them the same size as the old one e.g. Charmander - Char. I don't think it's possible to add or take away choice on a multichoice but there is a scripting command which lets you choose how many options to put on one line.

No, you can completely make new multichoices.
You need to repoint the table data, but it is there.
There is a tutorial in the Docs. and Tuts. section.

Does anyone know what the number for the title in Pokemon emerald is in Unlz.gba? The one that says Pokemon emerald. Any, and all help will be appreciated. Thank you.

Any help guys? I just ran through almost all of the numbers in the old UNLZ.gba (and translated a good bit of the dutch) but still no dice. I just need the big yellow and blue pokemon logo and the text under it that says Pokemon Emerald. Thank you!

If you can't find it, rip it from the game.

Yo Yo Yo! MC Blaze on the mic.

Question of the day: How do I import a trainer sprite to the game? I'm hacking Fire Red, by the way. If you have a heart, you'll forgive my noobness and help me.

Open UNLZ.GBA, search for a trainer sprite, then import a new one and Select Write To ROM. The trainers are around 1700-1900 I think.

I did that, acording to destinedjagold's tutorial, but when I engage a battle with that trainer, I get a blackscreen, what does this mean?

You didn't insert the trainer at an offset ending with 0,4,8 or C. Any offset that doesn't end in any of those will mess up the ROM when the picture should be displayed. So always insert an image at an offset ending with 0,4,8 or C.

E.g. 0x720120 - yes. 0x98DF6F - no.

After you insert the picture, export the palette. :P

Is anyone aware/in possession of a program that can add move/pokemon types to a game? I played this one hack, pokemon prism I believe, in which there were a few new types like abnormal and gas. I've been hacking a ruby ROM and would like to add some types to my game. Anyone know how to do this?

There isn't a tool, as far as I am aware. You need to use Hex Editing (I think) to add more types.

... I love you, dude. As simple as that

I have been searching, but I know I can't search all of these pages for an answer. I went through about 200, plus googled and all that good stuff, but I didn't see an answer to this. The only time I even saw the question again, it was unanswered in a locked board.

I moved a warp point in Advanced Map. It worked on there, where I could use the goto back and forth. When I load the rom and play, the same warp only leads to a black screen. Any idea what I did?

Hey there, dudes.

This is my last question of the day, I promise, I think you guys had enough of my noobness. How do I create a new person on A-Map? I've looked everywhere and I don't find the option to do it (or maybe I found it but I don't get it) I'm sorry, I need help.

Easy, in A-Map, when you are in the map you want to add a sprite to, click on the events tab, and scroll to the bottom of the preferences panel.
At the bottom, you should see 4 drop down boxes. Just increase the number of whatever you need, and then click the 'Change Events' button, and a new Sprite will appear in the top left corner of the map.

If you go to the events tab and scroll down in the panel on the right hand side you can set the amount of each event (person, sign, warp, script).
