[iammiho]

ok... i made the script, to fight with lugia... like legendary pokemons. It work perfectly until when it goes into battle it turns to black screen and never battles

here's the script:

#org $lugia
lock
faceplayer
checkflag 0x200
if b_true goto $done
cry 0xA1 249
pause 0x38
message $1
boxset 6
wildpokemon 249 70 1
setflag 0x200
release
end

#org $1
$1 1 = GYAOOOO!!!!

#org $done
release
end

 

[Megiddo-san]

It should be wildbattle, not wildpokemon. It should work then I believe.

 

[iammiho]

Still not working.. with wildbattle the screen wont even go black.. o.O
If screen turning black is a good thing...

 

[destinedjagold]

@ iammiho...
it worked fine in my case... maybe you have already used 200 as a flag.

#org $lugia
lock
faceplayer
checkflag 0x200
if b_true goto $done
cry 0xA1 249
pause 0x38
message $1
boxset 6
[COLOR="Red"]wildbattle[/COLOR] 249 70 1
setflag 0x200
release
end

#org $1
$1 1 = GYAOOOO!!!!

#org $done
release
end

How do you get level scripts to work, i am using the "setmaptile" option with this script

#Dynamic 0xDE5001
#org @main
checkflag 0x201
if B_true goto @change
release
end
 
#org @change
movesprite2 0x15 0x11 0x08
setmaptile 0x14 0x7 0x78 0x1
setmaptile 0x15 0x7 0x79 0x1
setmaptile 0x16 0x7 0x79 0x1
setmaptile 0x17 0x7 0x7A 0x1
setmaptile 0x14 0x8 0x189 0x0
setmaptile 0x15 0x8 0x189 0x0
setmaptile 0x16 0x8 0x189 0x0
setmaptile 0x17 0x8 0x189 0x0
setmaptile 0x14 0x9 0x3E 0x1
setmaptile 0x15 0x9 0x3E 0x1
setmaptile 0x16 0x9 0x3E 0x1
setmaptile 0x17 0x9 0x3E 0x1
setmaptile 0x14 0xA 0x1 0x0
setmaptile 0x15 0xA 0x1 0x0
setmaptile 0x16 0xA 0x1 0x0
setmaptile 0x17 0xA 0x1 0x0
return

I know the flag works because i have another script that uses it (i have 3 script[this one included] that all work together) so the 1st one sets the flag, the second one changes the map(this one), then the third is just a Hiker that tells you where to go

Here are the first and third script if you dont understand what i am talking about

Back to what i was talking about, when i enter the map the tiles dont change...

BTW i am using XSE, and AMap 1.92

Try that, the only change is in the setmaptile script.

 

[KhaosKnight]

Try that, the only change is in the setmaptile script.

Before i try that, i read in cooleys tut that explains level scripts and he said this

Yeah, sorry about that. I'll update the first post with how to fix this. You see, Advance map overwrites the values with 'FFFF'. Which is why most level scripts won't work if you do it through advance map. I'll update the first post with how to make a level script through XSE, or for those who don't like XSE, through hex. The only thing you'll need from A-map is the 'Professional Header' and the 'Map script offset' from it.

And i am using XSE and Amap, so is it me or XSE and AMap


And 0x1 and B_true i thought were the same thing, because when i talk to the Hiker(3rd script) he does the correct message that he is supposed to do after flag 201 is set.............but in the meantime i will try it with your change



EDIT: no dice Dshaya...still doesnt work

 

[Ryousha]

you need to learn how to script.
script it.
refer to thethethethe's scripting tutorial...

Isnt XSE, the same as Pokescript cept the difference

is @ for XSE ans $to Pokescript?

 

[Ninja Caterpie]

No.
XSE has more commands so you don't have to learn all the #raw's that Pokescript didn't have.
Also, XSE tells you when there's something wrong with the script BEFORE you compile.

 

[Ryousha]

No.
XSE has more commands so you don't have to learn all the #raw's that Pokescript didn't have.
Also, XSE tells you when there's something wrong with the script BEFORE you compile.

That's true. i guess, Pokescript is sort of similiar,

 

[thethethethe]

No.
XSE has more commands so you don't have to learn all the #raw's that Pokescript didn't have.
Also, XSE tells you when there's something wrong with the script BEFORE you compile.

XSE has more default commands. You can add commands to pokescript.
Pokescrpt does show if you make errors. You just have to look through the log.
The only major difference I've found, is the compiling speeds. XSE has a much faster compilation speed than pokescipt, and a working decompiling function.

 

[Ninja Caterpie]

I said "Before compiling".
XSE doesn't let you compile if there are blatant errors.

after this ill move to the script thread

so if i change $ to @ it will work?

 

[destinedjagold]

after this ill move to the script thread

so if i change $ to @ it will work?

there is a tutorial on how to script with XSE.

refer to darth's tutorial or seth's tutorial...

Most likely yes.

Sebbe once told me that you need to repoint cause that offset doesn't have enough space.

and are using a decompiling script? O_o

 

[iammiho]

@ iammiho...
it worked fine in my case... maybe you have already used 200 as a flag.

#org $lugia
lock
faceplayer
checkflag 0x200
if b_true goto $done
cry 0xA1 249
pause 0x38

sorry for all the troubles... it was only because i was using emerald rom.. i used ruby version and it worked perfectly.

I'm trying to make it so when you land on a hole in the ice you disappear, reappear, and then jump around and finally slide out. Whats wrong with it? All it does is freeze.
