    I want to add the option of adding 2 more options for the starting charcters. for eg. instead of female and male, i want ranger biker hunter and trainer. like that. is it possible?
     
    I thinks you have to change playermetadata in PokemonMap (find
    Code:
    MetadataPlayerH=17
    and add new lines for other players) and also in the module PokemonMetadata (find
    Code:
    "playerH"=>[17,"essssss",:PBTrainers]
    )..
    Finally you have to find, in Pokemon Editor,
    Code:
    ["PlayerH",PlayerProperty,
       _INTL("Specifies player H.")]
    Add the necessary ;]

    I don't know if this's all.. I didn't tested yet ^^"
    And sorry for the bad english.. I'm Italian eheh
     
    In addition to what xalien95 said, you'll also need to edit 3 defs in PokemonUtilities to accept the new valid IDs (search for MetadataPlayerA).


    Is this thread about Pokemon? I just found it through google.
    I... I really don't know what to say to this.

    You should note that Essentials is not related to ROM hacking - it is completely different.
     
    Just to add my two cents, I made a tutorial about how to add extra characters to Essentials a long time ago. You can find it here: https://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=238218

    It may help since I tried to cover every little step of it so there wouldn't be any confusion, and you have to be careful about the numbering of the items (which I also detail in that thread). I'm surprised you didn't find it by doing a search in Game Development before posting ;)

    I'm assuming Essentials hasn't changed how that works. If my tutorial is too out of date on that to work in the newer releases, I apologize.
