Add animations in Fire Red

Juan · Nov 17, 2009

Documentation(Emerald): here

Code:

struct FireRedTileset {
  u8  compressed		//00 = not compressed|| 01 = compressed
  u8  tileset			//00 = main tileset || 01 = secundary tileset
  u16 filler		        //00 00
  u32 *image			//image pointer
  u32 *palette			//pallete pointer
  u32 *block			//block pointer
  u32 *animation		//Animations routine pointer
  u32 *behavior  		//Behavior pointer
};

PS: LeafGreen uses the same structure then FireRed.

In this tutorial we will use only the "Animations routine pointer".
Decompile 0x8070154 (THUMB mode you should call the routines with "offset +1) we have:

What is important in this routine:
0x3000FB8 : Local in RAM where it is stored the pointer to the routine of animation.
0x8070121 : Offset of routine animation + 1 (THUMB)

Code:

ROM:08070164                 LDR     R1, =0x3000FB8
ROM:08070166                 LDR     R0, =0x8070121
ROM:08070168                 STR     R0, [R1]

Stores the offset of the routine in RAM

Now we see a secondary tileset that has animations.

What is important in this routine:
0x3000FBC : Local in RAM where it is stored the pointer to the routine of secundary tileset animation.
0x8070305 : Offset of routine animation + 1 (THUMB)

Then:
0x3000FB8: Location for the pointer to the routine of the main tileset
0x3000FBC: Location for the pointer to the routine of the secundary tileset

Then, to add animations tilesets that do not have any, please enter the following routine:
Main Tileset:

Code:

@define AnimationRoutine = Animation Routine Offset + 1
@thumb
thumb_code

main:
	ldr	r1,= #0x3000FAE
	mov	r0,  #0
	strh	r0,  [r1]
	ldr	r1,= #0x3000FB0
	mov	r2,  #0xA0
	lsl	r2,  r2, #2
	add	r0,  r2, #0
	strh	r0,  [r1]
	ldr	r1,=  #0x3000FB8
	ldr	r0,= AnimationRoutine
	str	r0,  [r1]
	bx	lr

Compile and enter the routine in an empty space in ROM.
Add a pointer to this routine + 1 in the header of the tileset you want.

But what comes to be 'AnimationRoutine'?

'AnimationRoutine' is the routine that will 'create' the animation.

Tileset 0 example:
Remember this:

0x8070121 : Offset of routine animation + 1 (THUMB)

To create our own animation routine, we have:

Animation offset (can be drawn on TileMolester)
RAM offset *

How to calculate the offset in RAM:
Flower Animation Example:

Code:

ROM:080700BA                 LDR     R1, =0x6003F80  ; RAM Offset

The RAM offset is 0x6003F80. But why?
It's simple.
See the image:

[PokeCommunity.com] Add animations in Fire Red

Offset in RAM is the exact place where the flower tile is stored.

Routine to add more animations (1 animation):

Code:

@thumb
thumb_code
main:
	push {r4-r6, lr}
	lsl r5, r0, #0x10
	lsr r6, r5, #0x10
	mov r0, #7
	and r0, r6
	cmp r0, #0
	bne NoAnimation
	lsr r0, r5, #0x13
	bl Animation

NoAnimation:
	pop {r4-r6}
	pop {r0}
	bx r0


Animation:
	...

More then 1 animation:

Code:

@thumb
thumb_code
main:
	push {r4-r6, lr}
	lsl r5, r0, #0x10
	lsr r6, r5, #0x10
	mov r0, #7
	and r0, r6
	cmp r0, #0
	bne NoAnimation1
	lsr r0, r5, #0x13
	bl Animation

NoAnimation1:
	cmp r0, #1
	bne NoneAnimation
	bl Animation2

NoneAnimation:
	pop {r4-r6}
	pop {r0}
	bx r0


Animation1:
	...

Animation2:
	...

I will not write the whole routine because there is a tutorial on ASM.

Each animation must contain:
r0 = Image Table pointer
r1 = RAM offset
r2 = size
And must call the subroutine 0x806FF04.

Image Table pointer:
Table of pointers to each frame.

Yup.

@Juan:
This is the exact same method that I used. It's good to know that I did it correctly even without a tutorial^^
Nice work.

Yeah congratulations.

And Juan, I think you have just helped out a lot of rom hackers :3 (including me)

Routine to add more animations (1 animation):

Code:

@thumb
thumb_code
main:
	push {r4-r6, lr}
	lsl r5, r0, #0x10
	lsr r6, r5, #0x10
	mov r0, #7
	and r0, r6
	cmp r0, r0
	bne NoAnimation
	lsr r0, r5, #0x13
	bl Animation

NoAnimation:
	pop {r4-r6}
	pop {r0}
	bx r0


Animation:
	...

That routine is wrong. You meant to write "cmp r0, #0x0", but you put a cmp r0, r0, instead. And since r0 will always be equal to r0 (obviously), the routine won't work properly. BTW, the routine is unoptimized as well. Here's the fixed and improved version:

Code:

@thumb
thumb_code
main:
	push {r4, lr}
	lsl r4, r0, #0x10
	lsl r0, r4, #0xD
	lsr r0, r0, #0x1D
	cmp r0, #0x0
	bne return

Animation:
	lsr r0, r4, #0x13
	...

return:
	pop {r4, pc}

The bolded number is what governs the frames of the animation. I changed it to 4 in my own ROM, and it skipped frame number 5. I put 6, and there was an extra blank frame added between 5 and 1. This is useful for my hack, as I made a flower animation that has only 4 frames.

Good find, this should make animation adding easier since know we how to change the amount of frames. :3

No, that's different.
You should download ZodiacDaGreat's Door Manager to do that.

Yes, r1 seems to be the number of frames.
But look the other animations, it gets some operations involving r1.
I do not debug that part out of laziness, I do not know the values that it receives after these operations.

Quite a interesting tutorial. Nice work Juan, I see you've kept up with ASM.
This is my contribution for R/S hackers ^^
