I don't know if this problem I'm having is my fault or the programs fault (most likely my fault), but it seems that I can't use Advance Map (1.92). Every time I change the map design of a room it loads said room black.
For example, when I changed the layout of the main characters bedroom to give it a new feel it looked perfectly fine in Advance Map. But when I loaded the ROM (and skimmed through Oak's introduction) it loaded a black screen. Luckily this was a back up.
I made another back up and this time changed the main character's living room (the one where "Mum" always is), it loaded the main character's room fine (note I having changed that room yet) but when I went downstairs it loaded a black screen again.
Am I doing something wrong, is anyone else having these problems, is there a save function I might not be clicking?
Thank you,

I'm going to guess you changed the size of those maps too. For some reason, those maps have major issues with resizing. I have no idea why. For my hack, I needed to resize, so I created a new bank with new rooms for the players house and it worked fine.

If you didn't resize, then I have no idea why you would be having this issue.

I resized it, maybe one day you could teach me how to make a rom with new sized rooms, until I have the time (and until your willing to do so) I will have to do without.

Ok i have hacked for several months now and i am having problems with putting d/p/ pokemon in pokemon fire red. I am using unlz gba obviously and i find a diamond pearl sprite. If i use starly for example, when it appears in the wild the backround of it shows on it and part of the bottom of it is messed up. The first time i imported it on pidgey it wasnt indexed, so i changed it to 16 colors on infranview, then i wrote it to the rom and it said its aborting and its too big. After that i checked off everything besides auto abort and it let me write it to my hack. Thats when the messed up starly appeared in the game. Does anyone know what to do?

There's a MUCH easier method of inserting Pokemon sprites using Advanced Pokemon Sprite Editor. Here's a link to the thread:
http://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=196143

This program will index the image for you and inserting is super easy. Here's a tutorial for inserting sprites with Advanced Pokemon Sprite Editor:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LwzQLxGCQ70

Edit: You'll be needing these as well:
http://www.mediafire.com/download/2n7211nkq17l62a/Battle_Sprites.rar
That file has all 4th gen and 5th gen Pokemon Sprites completely compatible with Advanced Pokemon Sprite Editor.

Ummmm, are they the original 80x80 ones from DP? Or resized 64x64?

1) File -> Map -> Create new map.

2) Change the settings you want (the name part is bogus, don't even bother.)

3) File -> Map -> Insert Map

4) Choose a map bank and map #. You can easily create new map banks and such in this area.

5) Edit your new map.

6) Be creative!

Note: If File -> Map is grayed out, it means you need to have a map already open to use it. It doesn't matter what map, it won't make a difference.

Is it just me, or does Oak's Tutorial type of battle go crazy when the player uses a 2nd Pokémon?

It also goes crazy if you throw a ball. The point is, it's not programmed to handle a ball (because you have no balls in FR at the time) or a second pokemon (because you're not supposed to have hat either). Just kinda follow the set standard of FR up until that battle.

I downloaded APSE, and the sprites look great now!Thank you for your help and the video, CrystalStatic.

I don't know if this is a common problem or not, but in APSE I tried to insert a png image of shadow lugia on normal lugia, and its colors where all messed up. I tried this on other pokemon too but did the same. Its colors turn from black, blue and red to completely white on any pokemon I try editing it with. It is also a 64 by 64 pic so the size is right. Is there a way I can fix this?

Press synchronize palettes to get the palettes in. No need to index.

When I use my Warp command in a script tile the message plays but when it warps the screen just goes black?

can someone help?
Stop using A-map 1.95 then use 1.92 to port that map to another bank/map slot.

rebuilding is what you want since if the map is corrupted, it's corrupted.

Hey. I'm about to insert some HGSS sprites onto my FireRed ROM using Wichu's Advanced Pokémon Sprite Editor, so I just wanted to ask…

If I change the palettes of a certain Pokémon (say Bulbasaur), will another palette in-game be affected? Do every Pokémon use a different sprite palette, or are there only a select pool of palettes to choose from? :|

Each Pokemon sprite has their own individual palette, it's just the overworlds and tiles that have a select pool of available palettes.

Are you hacking fire red or ruby?

Hey, thanks for that. :) Umm, do the trainers have their own palettes too?
Yeah, the trainer pictures have their own palettes too. It's just their overworlds that don't.

I was wondering how to go about editing Oak's introductions in the beginning of the game. No, not his sprite, but what he says.

Also the stuff before that with the white paper-ish thing on the blue background with the Pikachu.

Help would be appreciated, thanks.


Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what I've tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire.
But if it had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice.

Made sure the offset ended in 0,4,8, or C? Also Lz-77 compressed?

Hey people~
Can someone point me to a tutorial for inserting new abilities for Pokemon? I don't want to replace any already existing abilities, I want to add new ones. Thanks~
ASM, and repointing the effect table, and name table.

...Excuse me? That doesn't help whatsoever. I don't know where any of that is or how to edit it.
That's why I asked for a tutorial because I can not find one :/
