Hey. I have being using the emulater for a while now but I have never seen the problem I'm having.

For some reason my Pokemon will not evolve, and I am not pressing the 'B' Button.

For example, my latest Pokemon failing to evolve; "GOLBAT is evolving..." then usually it would say "GOLBAT evolved into a CROBAT". If I pressed 'B' It would say "...Huh? GOLBAT did not evolve." but mine is saying "...?"
It's like my pokemon can't, or refuse to evolve.
Is there some glitch in my game meaning I will have to restart?

You have not completed 60 entries in your pokedex for firered. Prof Oak gives you a national dex which allows you to see the 2nd gem pkmn, as crobat is 2nd gen. Talk to Oak after you have beaten the elite four to get it.

Playing my GBA games with VBA?

Does anyone know how to play GBA games saved with an action replay in VisualBoyAdvance 1.8.0?

I used my action replay for GBA to back up my Pokemon FireRed to my desktop. It's now there as an xps file. Is there any way to convert that so I can play it on my computer with VBA?

I tried xps2sav and that converted the file to a .sav form, but VBA won't load that. Is there any other program I can use to make either the xps or sav file into a type that is recognized by VBA? I would prefer a program that would also convert the VBA save back to one I can play on my GBA.

I have both the FireRed rom and game save with the same name so it's only the file extension on the save that is making it not work. When I try to load the game, it doesn't recognize that I have a saved game. It just keeps acting like I'm trying to play a new game. I even had my character save in a Pokecenter after getting the Pokedex in case that makes any difference.

Thank you so much. I thought I might have to start again. Going to have to epically play tonight because I only have 4 badges and I really want my crobat.

I can haz urgent assistance?

A Block editing question.

On the Lilycove City tileset [in Emerald] I changed the gym building tiles to Battle Tent tiles [with A-Map's Block Editor]. However, it screws up all the other Lilycove-exclusive tiles and ruins the tileset :(. Does anyone know where I may be goin wrong?

PS It is NOT a pallet problem - the tiles change to completely different distorted tiles.

How do you insert a new tile which has a palette that differs to the old one?

Well insert the tile under the original plaettes and then change them in a-map :P

hehe, I'm useless at tile inserting. =(
Q: I have a script that is supposed to move Pokemon, but the Pokemon don't move...
Thanks for help =)

OMG ARE WE PSYCHIC? ARE YOU BLIND?
Fist of all we don't know anything about the script, you could at least post it.
AND POST IT IN THE SCRIPT HELP THREAD NEXT TO THIS THREAD!

Hmm... I am having a little trouble with OWRE. I have inserted the front frame, then I am using the same pallette for the back frame. I have no problems with drawing the back frame on the canvas, but when I finish it won't let me save the sprite, it comes up saying "Error 55 (File already open) in procedure SaveSprite of frmOverworldEditor" Help?

But when there's a same palette, it can't be exported...
Wrong. Speaking as someone who knows the problem, change the pallettes in A-Map, going under (in Block Editor) Pallettes - Pallette Editor. When you wish to save them, got to Pallette - Save Pallette Changes. Then you ca save the tileset successfully.

My question got skipped too, for about the 50th time! Sorry Goodies but I don't have an answer for you :(.

I don't quite follow you. If you want the National Dex in FR, you need to have more than 60 Kanto Pokemon in your Kanto Dex before going to Prof. Oak who'll upgrade it for you. No hacking or patching required.

Just put a script in the game that sets the flag that enables the national dex.

I'm wondering how to insert sprites in, that I've got from a sheet of sprites. I have tried...but i can't find the right palettes, I've looked at guides, but I don't get them lol.
X_X

Also, I tried to use UnLZ to edit some sprites, but the codes the tut has, and mine are different. Is it because I've already edited my rom?
Thanks
