[Script] Change gender in overworld

ghoulslash said:

Hi there,
I'm wondering if it's possible to change the player's gender from the overworld?

In other words, is there a callasm command for the part in Oak's introduction where you pick your gender?

I've tried converting "Now tell me. Are you a boy?" into hex and found a pointer at 0x12FE34 but I'm not sure how I would proceed from there.

Thanks for your help in advance!


EDIT: Nvm, figured it out

push {lr}
ldr r0, =0x03005D90
/*0x03005D90 is Emerald,
0x0300500C is FireRed*/
ldr r0, [r0]
mov r1, #0x1
/*0x0 is boy, 0x1 is girl*/
strb r1, [r0,#0x8]
pop {pc}

sorry i'm not well versed in ASM. To use this i would simply change the #0x0 on the line "mov r1, #0x1" to 0x0 for male and 0x1 for female, then compile this and call it in a script with callasm 0xPointer+1? Is there anything else I have to add or change (other than the 0x0300500C) before compiling? Also i'm assuming this is a permanent change that changes the overworld and backsprite and wont cause issues with things like checkgender?

Edit: Yea this doesn't seem to do anything
