    Here's my conundrum:

    I'm trying to replace one of the main character sprites in Sapphire with an edited image. The one I want to put there is too big, so when I upload it, the colors change and it deletes the sprite after it.

    I finally figured out I could put my picture over a similarly-sized picture and then use the trainer editor to make the rival look like the person I wanted. However, it doesn't work for when I'm trying to put the picture on the trainer card.

    I've looked into using offsets, and I've followed the directions there to a T. They said it should "repoint the sprite" so that when it pulls up the sprite, it will be the one I imported (with UnLZ)

    So, I was wondering if there's a simpler way to do this. The only alternative I can think of is to use a scripter to change which image is pulled up for the main character.

    I'm fairly new at this, and I'm really not much more than a dabbler, but this is a frustrating issue. Any of you experienced ones willing to give me advice? (or point me in the direction of where this has already been answered? I've already looked, and all I've found was the same advice that didn't work before)

    What happens when you try to repoint the image? You have to make sure that you are repointing to empty space and you have checked the "Automatically fix pointers" checkbox before you "Write to Rom".

    I used the "Automatically fix pointers" box before, but it kept repointing it to some position where whenever the sprite was supposed to load (at the beginning of the game, the trainer card, rival battle) the game would just restart from the GameFreaks logo. It would tell me "ptr changed to 001..." I don't know the exact code.

    So, I tried repointing it and unticking the box, and it went in without a problem, but the image still doesn't load.

    Is it just different with Sapphire or does unLZ hate me? Thanks for your help

    Edit: I tried doing it again with FireRed, automatically repointed the image, it said something like "Ptr at 002399BA found. Changed." When I opened up the trainer card (where the picture would be) the game froze up, looping the music and not loading.

    Might it be my emulator? I'm using VBA. I can always try No$GBA

    Edit 2: Oh crap. It was my emulator -_- No$gba does it just fine... but I prefer my VBA :(

    Heres Diamond Cutter.

    Is this a new Person event that you have added? If so then you have to make a script for it.

    Thankyou thethethethe! you have no idea how annoying it is to see " your pokemon are freezing in the extreme cold " then to read on the status menu they have gone to sleep yet again!

    Perhapse someone could also help me with the createsprite command? i want to make a sprite that copys the player but whenever i do then all the sprites in that area vanish. the command i am useing is
    Code: 
    createsprite 0x2 0x2 0x5 0x4 0x36 0x0
    (i assume the behaviour byte is the same as the number of movement commands found on advancemap? in this case 54)

    • Frustrating

    Ok guys, I'm making a hack and have used two of the trainer editing programs I know: Trainer Editor and PET. I edit some trainers get their trainer number put it in my script and load it up to play. When I battle that trainer though it goes to a black screen and just freezes here is my trainer script:

    #org $start
    trainerbattle 58 $before $after
    message $beaten
    boxset 6
    release
    end

    #org $before
    $before 1 = Are you an intruder?

    #org $after
    $after 1 = You shouldn't be in here!

    #org $beaten
    $beaten 1 = You won...how?

    Does anyone know anyway to fix this problem or have encountered the same problem and have a solution.

    Thanks in advance

    PET can edit trainers in Emerald. Theres also a program called Amplifier 2006 that does a good job of it.

    You've set out the trainerbattle command incorrectly.

    but since you want to continue the script after you want this:

    It sounds like a bug in PET to me. Try using a different trainer editor, and see if you have the same problem.
