Pokemon Fire Red Hacked Engine For Dummies
Pokémon Engine hacks and additions tutorial

Pokémon Engine hacks and additions tutorial
By: Turtl3skulll
While working with JPAN's hacked engine, I've noticed a lot of the instructions are very poorly written; many assume you know every little thing that is going on, and thus a lot of examples are completely voided. I've began rewritting his manual in a friendlier way, one which (hopefully) any beginner with scripting knowledge may be able to look at and understand without the need of carefully reading every word of the document and having to put one-and-one together to figure out an example that was briefly talked about before that is needed.
I will attempt to update the manual to make it as user friendly as possible, and include every special as soon as I get it fully working.
I'll use this format:
NAME OF SPECIAL & ITS NUMBER
BRIEF DESCRIPTION
A SCRIPT EXAMPLE
EXTRA NOTES ON IT
DISCLAIMER: I will not include everything the original manual had. These will be examples of how to script the specials he created, and therefore they will not be explained in full detail, that's what his manual is for & you may look at that for in-depth explanation on his code.
If anything is wrong, needs more explaining, or I missed a special and you know how to explain it feel free to tell me & I'll add it onto this. Hope this helps some of you out :)
Multichoice boxes
Spoiler:
Multichoice boxes have 2 special, being special 0x24 and special 0x25
They contains 7 boxes to use, ranging from 0x20 – 0x25, which define how many choices you wish to have.
0x20 – 2 Choices
0x21 – 3 Choices
0x22 – 4 Choices
0x23 – 5 Choices
0x24 – 6 Choices
0x25 – 7 Choices
Special 0x25 - Load Pointer from Script Bank
Special 0x24 - Load Pointer by Variables
The max number of choices allowed are 7, if you attempt to load 'Setvar 0x8006 0x7' or higher (which would be 8 choices) it will fail.
Every single loadpointer must be pointed to some offset whether or not it contains text, else game will crash.
Multichoice box text must be under 20 characters to be properly displayed, and According to JPAN will not display special characters such as the \v\hxx or coloring, but its worked fine for me.

Special 0x25 - Load Pointer from Script Bank
Spoiler:
Special 0x25 uses pointers given in the script to load the data into the multichoice boxes
Uses Setvar 0x8006 --multichoice slot
Example Special 0x25:
Uses Setvar 0x8006 --multichoice slot
Example Special 0x25:
Spoiler:
For 2 choices:
To add a 3rd or 4th choice you just add another 'setvar 0x8006 0xYY' another 'loadpointer 0x0 @something' and 'special 0x25', as shown below, as well as changing the Multichoice from 0x20 to the box with the desired choice amount.

Special 0x24 uses pre-defined variables to load the data into the multichoice boxes
It uses:

BufferPartyPokemon
Spoiler:
Bufferpartypokemon 0x0 0x0
Explanation:
The first 0x0 chooses the pokemon to buffer from slots 1-6 (0x0 – 0x05)
The second 0x0 is the buffers that will be used.
Examples:
#org @start
Bufferpartypokemon 0x0 0x0 -----'buffers 1st pokemon, & the buffer set to \v\h02; the buffer in the script MUST have 2 added when using it as "\v\h0X", thus this one will be \v\h02 since our pointer is 0x0

Bufferpartypokemon 0x2 0x2 -----'buffers 3rd pokemon, & the buffer set to \v\h04; \v\h04 (0x2) is the max amount of pokemon to buffer, no more than 3 pokemon can be buffered at a time, after this, the game will load, the rival name and some other things.
Msgbox @hi 0x6
end
'strings
#org @hi
= \v\h02, then \v\h03 'meaning it'll be read [buffer1], then [buffer2]

This code will automatically check for empty slots first, and then, if all are occupied
replace the slot with the given attack. It also restores that attack PP fully, and removes
all PPup slots used.

Special 0x56 – Swarm-roaming Pokémon Changer
Spoiler:
Vars Used:
Spoiler:
Uses Setvar x8004
Uses Setvar x8005This is the only one I will explain, until I practice the others:
0 to 0x3fff-> The number of the Pokemon wanted (Use YAPE to see correct numbers as there is a gap between Celebi and Treecko)
0x4000-> 0x8015: The pokemon number IN the variable stored in 0x8004
0x8000-> 0xfffc: not defined
0xfffd-> specific pokemon stored at a pointer kept in two variables, 0x8008 0x8009.
0xfffe-> specific pokemon stored at a pointer, that must be placed by hand in 0x0203f488
0xffff-> specific pokemon stored at the LoadPointer location
Uses Setvar x8006Chance pokemon will appear out of 65536
0x0-0xffff (0-65536)
50% is 7fff (32767)
Uses Setvar x8007Amount of roaming Pokemon 0x1,0x2,etc.
0x0 means unlimited, will keep appearing
uses lower and upper halves:
Lower half is location given by:
each bit either being 0 or 1 depending on what you want
Bit 0 = Grass
Bit 1= Surfing
Bit 2 = Tree/rock-smash
Bit 3 = Fishing
1001 (bit 0=1, bit 1=0, bit 2=0, bit 3=1) would make pokemon available on grass and fishing
1110 (bit 0=1, bit 1=1, bit 2=1, bit 3=0) would activate it in grass, surfing, & tree/rock-smash
it must be written in hex though, so 0x9 and 0xE respectively
The Upper half is the pokemon level:
level 80 being 0x50
Example:
Spoiler:

Hex edit Part 1:
At the offset defined in the script (in my case 0x810000) write:
XX 00 00 00 YY YY YY 08
XX - determines location of wild data... such as pokemon appearing in water, grass, tree/rock, and fishing.
table for this:
00 00 00 - filler
YY YY YY - pointer to wild data (in reverse the 08 is already included so you just need the offset in reverse, don't add another 08)

At the offset defined by the "YY's" in part 1 you will need to place the wild pokemon data.
It goes as followed:

00 = filler
For grass wild data you will need to fill up this info 12 times total
For Surfing wild data you will need to fill up this info 5 times total
For Tree/rock wild data you will need to fill up this info 5 times total
For Fishin wild data you will need to fill up this info 10 times total

Walking Scripts
Spoiler:
"Basically, this feature allows you to create your own special scripts that are activated each time you take a step, well, most of the times you take a step.
There are some other scripts that will always run first. The Egg hatching script, the whiteout script or every step-on (green) script will always beat this one into execution, so you have to take these into consideration if you need that script to run all the time (such as calling the walking script before starting a normal step-on one).
Also, this script is, by definition, a blocking script, meaning that every script you make here must end with the release or releaseall commands.
This script is indicated to make some small checks, manipulate the landscape, and the occasional message, like the Phone script in Gold." -JPAN
This special contains a max 4 slots to store the walking scripts into as a table.
They are located 0x1a4e2c.
Only 1 can be executed at a time, they are selected by using:
Setvar 0x407e 0x(1-4)
An extra walking script can be set temporarily by setting 0x407e to 0 and loading a pointer to the RAM address 0x0203f4f0, this one will take priority over the ROM table.
Special 0x81 - Load Walking Script Pointer
Spoiler:
Loads the pointer from the loadpointer bank 0 to the 0x0203f4f0 address to allow execution, is also needed for wildbattles to be activated through this.
Instructions:
Spoiler:
Instructions to this are:
"First, you have to make the script you want to activate on every step. Once the script is compiled, you open a hex editor and navigate to offset: 0x1a4e2c
There are 4 slots for pointers there. Place the offset (reversed) of the script you want to execute with every step in the first slot.
Then, at whatever point you want the walking script to be active (be it through an event script or a level script) just put:
So that's how special 0x81 works, in case anyone else was having trouble with the instructions." (Credit to metapod23)Code:setvar 0x407e 0x1 ---'tells game to access 1st pointer at offset 0x1a4e2c special 0x81 ---------------' starts the script to activate on every step.

This example uses the 1st pointer in the offset 0x1a4e2c.
Assuming the offset for the 'Money On Step' script was 0x8003f9, you'd go to a hex editor and in the 1st slot you'd write over '00 00 00 00' with 'f9 03 80 08'
