Use advance text to search for the name of the pokemon you want to replace and replace every circumstance of the old name with the new one.

Okay I think I figured out the problem as to why I keep getting an RTE 13:

Code:
#org 0x71F330
lock
message 0x71F530
boxset 0x4
checkflag 0x1FF
if 1 0x71F480
message 0x71F630
boxset BOXSET_YESNO
compare LASTRESULT 0
if 1 0x71F480
message 0x71F730
boxset 0x2
wildbattle 0xFB 0x1E
setflag 0x1FF
release
end

#org 0x71F480
release
end

#org 0x71F530
= It's the shrine dedicated to\nthe protector of the forest.

#org 0x71F630
= A small hole sits in the center\nof the shrine.\pInsert the GS Ball?

#org 0x71F730
= \v\h01 placed the GS Ball in the\nILEX shrine
When I try to compile the whole thing, I get an RTE 13. AFter checking the rom in a Hex editor, it appears only part of the code was compiled, everything up until wildbattle 0xFB 0x1E. So I tried to compile teh text at least.

Code:
#org 0x71F480
release
end

#org 0x71F530
= It's the shrine dedicated to\nthe protector of the forest.

#org 0x71F630
= A small hole sits in the center\nof the shrine.\pInsert the GS Ball?

#org 0x71F730
= \v\h01 placed the GS Ball in the\nILEX shrine
Compiling this went fine, no errors at all. So obviously, there seems to be a problem with the Wildpoke command. Can anyone help?

EDIT: Never mind, don't answer this. I figured out the problem. After looking at commands.html I just figured out I was doing the syntax for wildbattle all wrong.

I just finished remapping Littleroot town, and some of the scripts aren't working. The script that prevents a player from leaving before seeing May isn't working, the script that makes Prof. Birch get chased in Route 101 isn't working, and the script that causes the little boy to say "I hear someone shouting from down the road..." isn't working. Any idea why?

okay not really a problem but more of a question.

For the rubicode "applymovement" command:

1.) is the sprite interger the interger of the sprite used on the map? What if there are two of the same sprite, how would you distinguish?
2.) can anyone give a list of the movements you can use using #raw?

I am hacking FireRed and it's my first hack. I have a couple of problems:

1. When I put scripts in (with advance text) the punctuation marks get messed up (ex. ! turns to ./).

2. I edited PALLET TOWN and ROUTE 1, How do I change their names to NEW BARK TOWN and ROUTE 29?

3. I switched the connections to the direction needed but I can't get to the other map, even though the paths are the same number of tiles down. Heck, sometimes I can't see the other map at all (blocked by trees)

4. When I replace the female hero w/ Marina in unlz-GBA it works, and it's there when I go to the right offset but it doesn't show up in the ROM when I play it, it's the same old girl.

5. I edit w/ both e-map and a-map, could this cause problems?

6. When i get to ROUTE 29 the wild Pokemon data I put in A-map doesn't take effect, there's nothing in the grass, how do i fix this?

7. When I use a starter Pokemon editor it says "Type Mismatch" and closes, how do I fix this?


As i said, I'm a begginer and I don't know if this is common knowledge. I've checked the tutorials and they didn't help.

Thanx

Like the title says, I want to know if there is any way to rearrange the Pokedex entries, so I can put my starters first and what not.

Hope this is the right place for Q's...

I just found out about ROM's\emulators etc etc for gameboy, and so i have the game+emulator, works great,etc etc. But one thing i cant figure out, even after looking through the site, reading FAQs, is just a very very simple edit moves\edit stats\catch pokemon hack, for G\S\C. If anyone could link me to one, or link to a tutorial that would be great. Still trying to figure out the hex editing of the game(hexing at all,actually) and am not making much progress...

Thanks! :)

When I compile this script in A-Map (found in the database; I'll give credit), the sprite that I assigned the script to does not respond to the player at all. Do I need a faceplayer command in the script or something? Thank you in advance, and if you need more info, just ask. I'm still completely new to scripting.

No, there's no way around hex if the programs won't work for you.

May be ebecause of a missing variable.
Make sure you have used the exact structure for your script commands. (Press F1 on a command to see it's structure, or have a look at the "commands.html" in your EliteMap folder.)

Probably your ROM got corrupted.
You should start from your working backup copy again.

For the INI problem, that error indicates, that the ROM you tried to load is not supported (entry not added to the INI file yet).
You can either search for the offsets yourself, or wait until it is added.

You can set the Sprite X and Y position in battle by using Dexter (or PokeDEX).

3)And how to change a new item so that it can raise pokemon's exp, just like a lucky egg? (Tell me the offsets too pls)
1) Just search for the Pokémon bytes in the order they appear in the Dex. Then you have the offset and can re-arrange them.

2) You can find the Script offset of the Event when you take a look at it's "Script" box in your Map edit. Then just go to that offset and change HO-OH's byte to Mew's.

3) Impossible at the moment, as the structure of that data is unknown.

You have to Index the colors of your Image with an Imaging program.
Photoshop can do that. Reduce the colors to 16 and index the images pallete with the colors you want to have in your image.

Yes, you have to have the ROM in the same folder as where ScriptED's file are located.

Have a correctly indexed sprite for your Shadow Pokémon, and the colors will be as you want them.

Well, you could change it's pallete to Black & White, that way you would have a "shadowed" Pokémon, and don't have to change the sprite.

http://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=52775

You can edit the Titlescreen's images with unLZ-GBA. (Comes with EliteMap.)
Or you try using the new Cyclone tool (New Poketronic thread in the Tools Showcase), for which you can find a tutorial here:

and if so

What is/are the offset(s) I need to change their names?

PS. Don't recommend Advance-Text for naming the characters to me. I'm can't change the names of the rival. That's why I want the offsets (if I asked that right). But if it is possible, then please tell me how ^^ thx in advance.
Yes, you can do that.
But to make it easier, you should load a table file into your Hex-Editor.
This will turn the bytes to readable letters, so you can easily change texts.
Table files can be found in the stickied thread in the Main Hacking forum.

Some tutorial can be found here:

For the first question, see what I replied to Skipps question.

For the 2nd, in VBA, go to "File->Screen capture" and save a screenshot file.

"#org 0xEFE77C

put those sentences at their respective offsets?

I don't understand how scripts work.

Thanks in advance.
Yes. That script for example will put those texts at the offsets specified above them.

-----------------------------------
The flags are different in Emerald. You should be able to find them by taking a look at the Prof.'s script when he gives you the Pokémon/DEX.

For the rest, when you take alook at existing "givepokemon" commands, you'll see that the "PLAYER obtained a POKéMON!" sentence is added just like every other text.
So just add one more text to your script after you received the Pokémon.
Before that text command, add a fanfare command, and after the text command, a waitfanfare command.

For the Nickname script, again take a look at existing scripts. Just copy the script of off an existing one, and change the parts you need. That is the easiest way.

Just search for a place where you can see a lot of FF/00 bytes. That indicates free space.

Try re-pointing the Event data again. But make sure you point it to an offset that ends with 0/2/4/C.

Make sure you have set the connections on both maps correctly.

For the rubicode "applymovement" command:

1.) is the sprite interger the interger of the sprite used on the map? What if there are two of the same sprite, how would you distinguish?
2.) can anyone give a list of the movements you can use using #raw?
1) No, the sprite integer is the Index number of the sprite on the map.

2. A list was posted here: http://www.pokecommunity.com/showpost.php?p=1787518&postcount=6 .

also could you tell me what is wrong with this script he gives you the pokemon everytime (he never says hows that celebi doing)
The parameters of the givepokemon command are not enough. It has more than ScriptED actually tells your it has.
The correct form has been posted in this thread.

two problems actually:

1.) the sprite that i wanted to move doesn't
2.) the cry & battle don't occur at all
You made a typo at "applymovement". The compiling of the script was most likely stopped there because of that.

3. I switched the connections to the direction needed but I can't get to the other map, even though the paths are the same number of tiles down. Heck, sometimes I can't see the other map at all (blocked by trees)

4. When I replace the female hero w/ Marina in unlz-GBA it works, and it's there when I go to the right offset but it doesn't show up in the ROM when I play it, it's the same old girl.

5. I edit w/ both e-map and a-map, could this cause problems?

6. When i get to ROUTE 29 the wild Pokemon data I put in A-map doesn't take effect, there's nothing in the grass, how do i fix this?

7. When I use a starter Pokemon editor it says "Type Mismatch" and closes, how do I fix this?


As i said, I'm a begginer and I don't know if this is common knowledge. I've checked the tutorials and they didn't help.

Thanx
1. You can't put scripts in the game with Advance-Text. It is only a text editor.

2. Hex-Editor + Table file, or you could use the name change option of AdvanceMap.

3. Sometimes, you have to adjust the "Adjustment" of the map, to make it appear at the correct places. That can be changes in the connection manager of Advance-Map.

4. Have you saved your changes in unLZ-GBA to the ROM?

5. Maybe. It was causing problems in the past.

6. Again, have you saved your changes correctly? When you add Pokémon data, make sure you put it at an offset that ends with 0/2/4/C.

7. If the editor has no INI file, then you can't fix it yourself, as it is a problem with the program. If is has an INI file, you have to adjust the offsets to match the game you want to edit.

See my answer to that question above. (Or some pages back of this thread.)

If anyone could link me to one, or link to a tutorial that would be great. Still trying to figure out the hex editing of the game(hexing at all,actually) and am not making much progress...

Thanks! :)
You should take a look at the Hacking Tools Reference in the Tools Showcase.
It will give you links to G/S/C hacking tools, which allow you to edit those things.

You need a linker + dumping program to get your game onto your computer. (Dumping ; Copying a catridge game as a file (ROM) to your PC)

Also you should have a look at the FAQ of this forum.

No, that command is not needed.
However, again the givepokemon command is causing errors.
As I said above, see some pages back of this thread to find the correct amount of values for it.


Phew...a lot of questions...

Do you mean where it says offset in dexter. I tried putting in different numbers but nothing changes... What effect do which numbers have on the position of the front sprite?

My bad, sorry. I was thinking of the sprite positions in the Pokédex for some reason. (Oddly enough I wrote battle in my answer... XD)

Well the position data for the sprites in battle has to be set somewhere in the battle routine.

Now the only question is, where...

There are still a lot of things we haven't discovered yet, and that is one of them.
(Basicly almost the whole battle routine is unknown...)
