This is the animation's code i would repeat:

Spoiler:

According to what I found in the tutorial of Chaos Rush, when the attack crashes you can end its animation and put another after it... But I can't repeat twice that animation!

So, you cut the animation out to the point that it crashes. Now, did you remove the byte that caused it to crash? That could be your problem. Remove that byte and then duplicate the animation and see how it goes.

Yes, probably there's a second palette...but neither bg nor obj are good for grass...where can i find a third palette?

Go into the tile viewer and find the grass. Then look and see if it gives a number for "pal". Hopefully, this will be shown and it is the pallet row (if the top row is 0) in VBA. I'll give it a look also.

Edit:
Never mind, it doesn't tell which pallet. However, I believe it to be pal #1 (if the top row is 0) in the bg pallets. So, open up the memory viewer to the location of the pallet and search for those bytes in a hex editor.

For this question I have to do an example...
I have Dragon Claw's animation code:

Spoiler:

How can I remove the claw's animation, that is the same of crush claw? I tried to find the same code of crush claw, but there isn't... How can I do this...?

Here is how you change a pallette that you see in VBA. Each color is two bytes. So, make note of the memory location of the first pallet. In this case, it is 0x05000020. Now, open up the VBA memory viewer and go to that offset. Type the next 0x20 (32 dec) bytes you see in the memory viewer into the search function in HxD and search for them. Sorry, no copy amd paste in the memory viewer. Then, the location of the first byte of your pallet is the location of pallette in APE.

I just found the pallette myself, however I will put it in a spoiler so you can cross check it yourself. Find it on your own, don't cheat!

Spoiler:

Now, open up that location in APE and edit it!

Well, from what I have seen, we don't know a ton about graphic movement on the screen. However, my best guess would be to find the graphic for the claw in unLz and make note of the offset. Take that offset and turn it into a pointer and see if that pointer is in your animation. If it is, then that is definitely the section which has the claw animation. Remove that section and play around with the sections around it until it works.

I made a new item (its a land deed) its item 0x15B

so I have a script
checkitem 0x15B 1
if == jump 0xwherever

it just jumped without checking :( (cause i did not have the item at the time)

is there something wrong with my layout?
I even tried
if true jump 0xwherever
and got the same result

There are other tools out there that specifically specialize in inserting front and back sprites (Wichu's Advance Sprite Editor, for example) and unlz.gba tends to mess up people when it comes to palettes.

You mean that if i insert my stuff with wichu's sprite editor the palette will not get messed up? ill test it later, thanks for your help!

Please help!

When i import my front pokemon sprite with unlz.gba, it goes alright.
But when i import my back pokemon sprite with unlz.gba, when i test it ingame, the palette gets automatically messed up, any helps?

If you run out of flags, I have a risky, but worth it solution. Just let me know if you do.

Please, never use that giant text again. Please. Also, the pallette is messed up because they both share a pallette. A much better way to do it would be to use GIMP and index them both with the same pallette before insertion. An even easier way, just use Wichu's Sprite Editor: The Advance Series. It does the pallettes for you and will also do shiny pallettes very easily.

Edit: I see you've already used Wichu's but your giant text prevented me from seeing the first part of your message. No kidding. Give it another try. The problem is that your images will have to share the same pallette before going into Wichu's sprite editor.

As the title suggests I have a big problem with the program vba sdl h.
The problem is that it did not create the trace file while performing the steps right.
I hope some of you can help me.

Hello there! I have a question which i really need to be answered. I repointed the pointer which points to the OWS-table to 0x00801000 and i copyed and pasted the old OWS-table to 0x00801000. Then i added a new pointer to that table pointing to 0x00802000 where i've added a copy of the hero-data. Now i open NSE and go to "View>Offset". I tried putting in various offsets because i didn't know which one it wanted me to give. I tried giving it the offset to where the pointer to the sprite-table was (the one i repointed to 0x00801000), i tried giving it the offset to the actuall spritetable, i tried giving it 0x0080125C which is the pointer in the spritetable which leads to 0x00802000 where i have the sprite-data. All this, but i couldn't get the texture to show up in NSE!! And when i activate "Advanced Mode" and go to the first default sprite (Hero) I see that under "Sprite Pointer: " It sais "$H35BB68". When i once again put in "80125C" at "View>Offset" I see that "Sprite Pointer: " is the value which is changing. So i go back to the default hero and check the "Sprite Pointer: " and ofc it shows "$H35BB68" So i go to my Hex Workshop and go to the offset "0035BB68" but it just leads me to a bucnh of zeros?!?!?! So which offset am i going to add to "View>Offset"? I mean, if the no. 1 sprite which is hero points to "35BB68" which is only a bunch of zero's, how can that offset possibly give the texture to the hero? And how am i supposed to find the "zero space" of my sprite?!

Now, modify the ini file for NSE to reflect the new location of our table.

Next, open NSE and go into options and turn "Advanced Mode" on. Then go under boundaries and turn them all off.

Now you should be able to edit your new sprite, very similar to how it works in OWERE. Remember to repoint the sprite pointer so a new bank. NSE can create this new bank, the in a preference option in one of the menus.

I forgot, NSE doesn't have one. Okay, open up the folder that cam with NSE Classic. Now, open the readme.txt file. There are instructions in it for making your own .ini.

i have 2 odd situations going on...

1: i have map connection issues... when going from map 1 to map 2 it works fine... but when coming back they dont work... its like walking into a wall... the connection is there... looking at the header following the connection offset the hex info for the connection (its straight forward) is also correct... I cant find any reason y it wouldnt work...

2: I added a map bank 43... and have added 20 maps to it... it seems anything over 18 i cant warp to... i get black screens... there are no events on the map, no map scritps... no reason for it to do anything other than warp me to where i wanna go... but it dont :(

both these things work in advance map... by double clicking the warp i get warped... and by following the map connection it goes where its supposed to go...

all other map connections ive made have worked fine... and all other warps from the map im working with work fine (its the main town map so there are alot of warps)

is there a max warp per map? is there something im missing... just any ideas would help cause from looking at the code it seems right...
