Make that 2nd \n a \p. Then it should work.
 
how do you add legendary battle scripts so that the pokemon disappears after you catch or deteat it.
It may be here somewhere already but it is to hard to find if it is.
Please help me i am in the middle of a new rom.
 
I have a little problem now.
What do I have to do to make the script continue after the trainerbattle?

Code: 
trainerbattle 0 0x0002 $before $after
message $noo
$noo 1 = [there is some txt..]
boxset 6
Do I have to write the message $beaten?

If not, what exactly do I have to do to make the script continue?
Here the full one, everything works but after the battle the script ends and you can walk freely around:
Spoiler:
 
Spoiler:


Try like this... I haven't looked over your whole script as I assume you've got the rest right..
 
i figured it out about 30 seconds before I read your answer xD (read a tutorial)

thx anyway for reading at least the first part of the script and answering ;)

edit: there's one problem left.
before the fight there is the message "let's do it".
allright
then the fight starts and the message says:
Team Aqua Steve and from here on there are weird signs like óÀé
and after the line theese signs continue and begin at the same line again and overwrite Team Aqua Steve

Aftter 2 lines the battle starts, after you have beaten him the new messages does exactly the same.
and after the weird signs the normal message "WHAT?" appears.

Is it a mistake in the script or is it because of the change in Trainer Edit ?

lol. Thanks. Since it doesn't happen 1st it's not the main problem, but that would have been another, or does it affect everything? This isn't the 1st time I forgot a letter in applymovement.

I'm no expert in using raws, however... I don't even understand how to use raws...
 
Kind of gave up rom hacking a few months ago because it all got too confusing and messy and there's very little help available to newbies. Plus nothing ever worked smoothly, I was always getting errors or something going wrong before I could even test scripts.

Well, I'm going to give it another go. But problem is, I've been reading a PokeScript tutorial, and I re-installed PokeScript, and 'PkmAdv' and I started giving it a go again.

As usual, I'm having problems right from the word 'go'.

After saving a practice script in the correct file type, having chosen 'all files' from the drop-down menu and then clicked save, I was instructed to right-click the file and click 'compile script'. When I did this, I was greeted unexpectedly with an Open With window. This wasn't what I was told I should see. But, in a vain attempt to get it to work I tried selecting it to open with PokeScript. This obviously didn't work, and I got a Run-time error in my face.

Could anyone help? I don't know if this is a common problem but any tips or suggestions would be great. Thanks. Oh, please bear in mind, that I'm a complete newbie at this, so computer slang and terms would brobably not be understood.
 
What kind of window opens.. it should be a log.. If you're desperate, there's a tutorial on youtube...

Click to expand...

EDIT: Its ok, never mind. I've fixed it by downloading PokeScript from another source, so it compiles just fine now. :) The one I got the first one from must have had some missing files...

I'll have a search for it thanks. :) Though I'm pretty sure I followed all instructions exactly... I'll still check it out. EDIT: Had a look, there was nothing they were doing that I wasn't, and vice versa, so I guess its something else...

It's the kind of window you get when you click 'Open with', gives you a list of programs to select from to open the file with. Except I get this when I click 'Compile script' which apparently, yes, should bring up the log. Hold on... I'll try making another.

Made it .rbc file, as the tutorial instructs...
Selected file type as 'all files'...
No mention on what to do with 'encoding'... I'll try all kinds...

Nope. Nothing worked.

Is there any particular directory scripts should be saved to, or does it not matter?

It's starting to come back to me a little... I think I remember it working before but its been so long since I last tried this kind of thing I can't remember what I did to get it to work.

It didn't work. I think I'll ask Baro how he did his rival scripts.

Edit: I had to do the stupidest thing to get it to work. It turns out that another script that I had on the same tile was interfering. I am now having two other problems with it. 1.the #org $your message happens twice 2.you can step on the tile again and it will play the rival music and do the ! mark above the player's head. Here it is

I'm really pissed off -.-'

Everytime I try to compile my script, there is an error.
run-time error 457
this key is already associated with an element of this collection.

this is the script
Spoiler:

the log displays the error when reaching the applymovement 0x0C $13(or at least somewhere at this point).

pls help, it's important!
 
Okay, this isn't much of a question as it is a request.

I've been trying to learn scripting but I just can't get it right. All of my scripts don't work, and this whole ScriptED VS Pokescript thing is making my head spin.

I use Diamondcutter to apply my scripts to my game, so judging by the format, I think I need ScriptED formatted scripts.

A simple request, all I need is one easily editable script that attatches to a person or object that when you walk up to it and talk to it, it activates a one-time-only wild pokemon battle with a pokemon of choice at a level of choice. Kind of like Articuno, Zapdos, Moltres, Lugia, and Ho-Oh in Fire Red (which is the version I'm hacking).

I would GREATLY appreciate anyone who helps me out. I've been at this for months and I'm getting more and more discouraged by the week...
