Is This Still On?

Competitively said:

please release soon

I want too stop using pokemon advance map already I can't even right click to delete a map.

I feel that I shouldn't just replace the map because its just way easier to start from scratch imo.

We hear you, and we're still working!

Yes, slowly but surely work is still being done.

Sorry for not helping with this project (because I don't understand this programing language sufficient to help), but I have some suggestions:

1 - A way to insert animated tiles;
2 - An improved triple layer system (or more than 3 if possible);
3 - A better World Map Editor with possibility of editing its design;
4 - An improved Door Manager;
5 - Copy/Cut/Paste blocks (sometimes needs to do some blocks with the same tiles with a different behavior byte or something else, or simply moving blocks to adjust the way you want).

Great , Can't Wait To Try It!:)

I was wondering if we have some sort of ETA on this project, I would LOVE to use it, but unfortunately I can't build it cause I am a noob. With that being said, will the final tool support expanded Pokedex wild encounters? It's a feature most tools out there miss and would appreciate it being here. Good going so far, keep it up!

Is this project dead like MEH?

This project is not dead. It's just that Diego and me are lacking time (as for me, I do a full-time study and need to do a full-time job simutaneously in order to survive, I work 80-90 hours per week) and working on this project does not have a high priority for us. We will, in case we have some spare time during summer vacation, continue working on this.

Best regards,
Pokedude

why don't you expand the team?

Why don't you join the team?

The code is publicly available on github and they accept pull requests, so everybody who wants, can work on this.
...Provided that he has the programming skills or enough free time to learn them. Also: Even if you have some programming knowledge, understanding a project with more then 20000 lines of code so far takes some time too.

Yeah, i barely have any programming knowledge lol, otherwise i would

I was told on a thread this was cross platform and supported android too. I'm interested! Will there be a Wii version (for homebrew)?

1. Already planned!
2. More than three layers isn't possible due to hardware restrictions, but the triple-layer system is definitely coming to AME!
3. This one's definitely possible but tricky. Yes A-Map had one, but it was extremely unstable and would error out if a butterfly so much as flapped its wings within a 50-mile radius of your ROM.
4. Definitely!
5. I'd consider that a pretty basic feature (even A-Map has it) so it's definitely being included!

No ETA, sorry, but it will support expanded everything simply as a consequence of how we're building it.

Basically what Pokedude said, but I'll elaborate more on this further below.

Cross-platform yes, but Android? Technically the framework supports it but the small screen of a phone is generally not conducive to such things as ROM hacking. If anyone wants to prototype such a thing though I'd gladly look into it. And Wii support?! Definitely not.

I've just made a new blog post which has information on the current state of AME development, please read it if you're interested: https://domoreaweso.me/blog/the-everything-update

question, all I can see in the downloads is the source code

as I am just a tool user, barely getting by with simple hex editing (to be more exact, without a tutorial I have no clue on what to do with hex)
i have no idea how to use the source code to get the editor itself

is there a way, if so how
and if not, can someone guide me to a tool that allows me to change wild pokemon data (so that i can for example make version exclusive of leaf green appear in their natural area in fire red)

AME isn't released yet. There's no official working program atm. You still need to use AdvanceMap for the time being, unfortunately.

well if advance map works and is still downloadable at least, its fine
thank you

AME is not even compling able for me on Visual studio enterprise 2017 is give me what ever this "qtcore/qtglobal: no such file or directory" at config.hpp means on include missing that folder what ever. What is QT/QTCore does this use for Linux? I find on google about "Qtcore" nothing really more like only an page how use the code in c++

You need to download the Qt SDK at http://qt.io and use QtCreator to open the *.pro file and compile the project. You should also download the dependencies, but everything is described here: https://github.com/Diegoisawesome/AwesomeMapEditor/blob/master/README.md
