Advance Map Tricks


In this tutorial, I'll show you how to choose your defined script editor in Advance Map. Its quite easy really.

First, open Advance Map and load your ROM. Then go to settings, located right here:

Then, in the pop up box choose your script editor. I use XSE in this tutorial.

Click "Open" and this should pop up:

It doesn't really matter what option you choose, but choose yes for the sake of this tutorial.

There you go! You can now open scripts in the ROM via Advance Map. Try it by clicking an OW in the events tab and select "Open Script".

eXtreme Script Editor Tricks


In this tutorial, I'll show you how to open FSF (Free Space Finder) and A-Trainer during scripting. :D

In just 2 easy steps:

First, put XSE, FSF and A-Trainer in one folder. My folder looks like this:

This seems very useful, especially for those who have just started out.
Thank you. :3

Of course yes. I'm trying to make this tutorial as newbie friendly as possible. I'm thinking of adding more scripting tips. :D

Here's an idea. Teach them about how you don't need FSF for scripting and how to use the std-.rbh files.
Its already included in XSE's built in guide, isn't it?

EDIT: I read through XSE's built in guide, and I didn't saw it. I'll be doing a tutorial of that. Thank you for the suggestion.

Umm..like search free space with a hex editor?
How to use the .rbh files is included in the in-built guide.
It's looking good Zeffy, I hope you add more n__n

er...dude, thats called a scripting tutorial -.- ...
u should read one some time.

I know that but as She was helping with some script I thought that might come in handy for noobs. Btw, script thread didn't show us that king of script. I mean they only teach us the main comand of scripting. Some people find those tutorial very hard and Asking people to help them with scripting{Like I did when I can't script}. So I ask her to do that.

My suggestion for that is to read the guide that comes with XSE. It pretty much explains the basics of XSE scripting. :/

The disappearing sprite script is one of the many scripts that confuse me. Thank you for putting that up there; it helps a lot more.

But of course! :D

I linked it on the first post because too much spoilers can make spoilers not show up. :)

Thanks, glad to be of service.

I have two questions for script #3:

1) What is 0xA?
2) How do you know it's going to be a Lv. 10 Deoxys, if you never even put the level down in any of the 0x0's?

I hope the second question I asked made sense...

0xA is 10 in hex. Hex is different from the regular numbering system because it goes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E, F in order. Its difficult to grasp, but basically it is hexadecimal system so it has 15 number/letters to use, so there can be more combinations of numbers/letters, like 1A or 23E or something. So when he put 0xA it was telling it to put Deoxys as level 10 because it recognized A as 10.
