I guess you use the latest AM beta (1.95). For these kind of things, I recommend you to use AM 1.92. Also, if you want to insert a completely new map (that takes more space, obviously), you wanna choose the option "Insert New Map". I also can recommend you to remove all the level scripts.

Hello! I just wanted to know how to make that certain Pokémon can evolve regardless of whether you have the national dex or not in Fire Red, for example, to evolve Golbat. I already know how to start with the National Dex but thats not what I want to.

Well, I have a problem, and i looked through this thread for a while, but i couldn't really find a solution for it. it may be here, and perhaps i just can't find it, but im'm going to ask anyway.
I want to change the number of events on a map. I know I have to change the values in the "amount of events"-tab, and then i'm supposed to press the "change events"-button, right? but when i do that, a window pops up, and i think it's asking me to choose the offset, but i started using the program today, so i'm a total noob. if i simply close the window the amount of events won't change, but if i select the "specify" option and type 800000 it works, but I am unsure if it is unwise to keep using the same offset (actually pretty sure it's a bad idea), so i would like to know how to stop that window from popping up. i have seen some tutorial videos on events, and none of them got the popup when they changed the number of events.
i would really like help, thanks :) and as said, i'm completely new at this

Are you using A-map 1.9.5? Try using 1.9.2, it's much less buggy and won't ask you for offsets or anything. It is definitely bad to use the same offset though.

Hello. About the PGE's attack editor.
1. If I copy the animation pointer and paste it on another attack, would it execute same animation of the copied pointer?
2. and also, is it safe to edit the attack description?
3. and lastly, If I change the attack into from special to physical, would it be changed automatically w/o the aid of hex editing (the rom to be edited has a special/physical split feature)


Thanks for answering my questions. :3

1) Yes, but make sure the offset in the ini is right. Mine was wrong and I wasn't getting pointers.

2) Yes.

3) I am not qualified to answer this since I have never used the physical/special split.

3. Yes, it will change it for you. Though I'm trying to fix a graphical glitch with the physical/special icons and I'm not sure if that was the cause.

When I use the "sunny weather with clouds in the water" weather effect, clouds also appear on the trees for some random reason. I've tried editing the behavior byte of the tree blocks, but that still doesn't seem to do the trick. What do?

I am working on a new hack, and tried to copy nurse joy's script onto a different sprite. Everything works fine till like the last line, where the screen changes to a purple color and freezes. Any tips? As of now I have made no modifications to the script, it is the EXACT same script as the one from nurse joy in fire red.

There are a few level scripts you need in the pokecenter so the purple doesn't happen, so just copy and paste those as well.

it says that the version is 1.92, so i don't think thats the problem. and i have started experiencing some of the things that can happen when using the same offset over and over, and yes, it does mess up the hack xD
any other ideas?

I've been trying to hack the titlescreen to my Fire Red rom, but when my sprite is loaded, it shows up as a box instead of as a Pokemon. Okay, that's a bit of a bad explanation. It looks like when you try to put a transparent picture in Paint, and the background goes black. Please help. If my explanation is still a tiny bit hard to understand, I'll link a pic.

Your transparent color needs to be the first one in the palette.

Can anyone teaches me how to expand the number of the wild Pokemon of water and underwater from 5 to 12 in Emerald? Is this one related to ASM?
Click to expand...

You won't be able to do it without editing the code that loads the wild data. Then you would have to edit the tables to reflect your changes. These won't work with A-map, so everything will have to be done in a hex editor.

just to be sure, your a-map looks like this, right?:
Spoiler:

Does it happen with all ROMs you try to edit? Can you show me a screenshot? I need some more information.

Could you please tell me what is the offset of the code which loads the wild pokemon data? And the way to edit the tables?
