So, I'm hacking Emerald and I want to edit the dex data. They worked, I just wanted to fix how big they were because they were overlapping with the graphics. I correctly used the convenient .ini maker from the emerald engines within the tools and resources thread, with little fixes here and there, got the latest version of PGE, and NONE of the tools work. They either give one of these errors:

Here's the roms.ini file for Emerald below if that helps any:

PGE doesn't work, but G3T works perfectly. What could the problem be?

+1. I've had these problems too with literally any rom I try to edit except clean FireRed/Emerald, and this is the sole reason why I never use PGE if I can help it. It's a buggy piece of うんこ.

Edit: I meant PGE is crud not G3T.

There's also Joexv's Advanced Offset https://github.com/Joexv/Advanced-Offset/releases. I've never had it completely work with an Emerald hack, though.

I have reason to. Your editor breaks things frequently. G3T and G3HS don't.

Please reread the license agreement and what I wrote to you in the thread. I have proven in the past that G3HS does break certain things but hey, do what you want. No need for you to high jack other people's thread because you couldn't make things work for you.

Also, PGE is open source. Pull requests are welcome!

OK but the part of the ROM that PGE was crashing on wasn't something I had made changes to with G3HS, so no, G3HS is not at fault. PGE not being coded to handle the 25 original unown placeholder is.

Jeez, not sure how many times I have to repeat myself.

G3HS does not handle certain things and will break your ROM/compatibility with PGE.

I don't recommend using those slots, hence they are not enabled on purpose. This in no way stops you from editing other Pokémon. If you have a problem with this, make your own fork of PGE or your own tool.

Please go pick arguments with someone else.

Or you could just enable editing on those slots ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Additionally, you're the one that made this an argument.

I won't for the reason I already mentioned. Also, you do realize that PGE isn't being worked on anymore right?

I believe you came out of left field talking shit on someone else's thread, but hey if it gets you to leave me alone then yeah I started it.

I am requesting that a mod lock this thread as there is nothing constructive being discussed. Thread owner knows where to reach out for support.

Yeah, this thread has no more value and should have been locked a while ago :/

I'd also like to remind everybody to keep discussions clean/ on topic and to try to not get aggressive over a hobby.
