[OutOfOrder]

Well as it seems that no one is answering my questions for the past week or so... i am assuming no one knows the answer... : /

here is a different question then...

1) How do you make a Trainer Battle Script on XSE for Emerald Version? The one in the guides are for Ruby. When I try to have a wild battle using that script, all it says is the cry of the pokemon.. no battle. So i need to have a wild battle script for EMERALD.

2) How do you make a trainer battle script on EMERALD? I haven't seen any of these scripts in any tutorials anywhere so I am just beginning to think that there are no scripts for it... : / but if there are then please tell me.

Thank you!

:)

Ok now i got

#dynamic 0x800000

#org @start
lock
checkflag 0x82F
if 0x1 goto @done
applymovement 0x1 @move1
waitmovement 0
message @text
boxset 0x6
special 0x171
applymovement 0x1 @move2
waitmovement 0
setflag 0x82F
release
end

#org @done
release
end

#org @move1
#raw 62 20 20 1E FE

#org @move2
#raw 0C 0E 0E FE

#org @text
= Blah!

But when i go on it it still freezes
And i used special 0x171 for the running shoes

First off, you might want a lock command for this script,
Second, once you put a #raw command, XSE reads the line in hex, so you can put the movement 0x20 as just 20.

third, to make the script work, in advance map, place the "Script" event in the square you want, then change the first "Unknown" box from "0000" to "0300"
then the box below it, "Var Number",cahnge it from "0000" to "5040" then it should work.

The parts I edited in your script are in bold.

 

[Ninja Caterpie]

ckk, change the unknown to 0003 on the map and the one under it to 5040.

 

[Geeked]

Your supposed to change it to 0030, not 0003 xD

Edit: Actually I'm sure his script should look like this:

#dynamic 0x800000

#org @start
lock
checkflag 0x82F
[B]if b_true[/B] goto @done
applymovement 0x1 @move1
waitmovement 0
message @text
boxset 0x6
special 0x171
applymovement 0x1 @move2
waitmovement 0
setflag 0x82F
release
end

#org @done
release
end

#org @move1
#raw [B]0x62 0x20 0x20 0x1E 0xFE[/B]

#org @move2
#raw [B]0x0C 0x0E 0x0E 0xFE[/B]

#org @text
= Blah!

 

[Ninja Caterpie]

It doesn't really matter, 0300, 0030 and 0003 all work in my experience.

 

[Master_Track]

thanx i'll try it like that...................................................................
there's a few problems. right before the battle,

he says weakling.

this is my new script now:

#dynamic 0x1C5A03
#org @start
lock
faceplayer
checkflag 0x828
if B_true goto @done
msgbox @notime
boxset 0x6
release
end
#org @done
msgbox @battle [B]' This is the message that appeares right before the battle command.[/B]
callstd 0x6
trainerbattle 0x0 0x15f 0x15 @before @after '[B] @before: message before the battle, @ after: message after battle[/B]
msgbox @beaten [B]' Message if you talk to the trainer again[/B]
boxset 0x6
applymovement 0x1 @move
hidesprite 0x1
release
end
#ORG @move
#raw 0x62 0x30 0x20 0x20 0x20 0x20 0x20 0x20 0x20 0x20 0xFE
#org @before
= Do you have a\nproblem?\pLets fight!
#org @after
= Weakling.
#org @notime
= I don't have\ntime for you.

#org @battle
= Weakling.
#org @beaten
= Dang, your strong!

Well, the problem is actually the message at the pointer. I added explanations which pointer leads to which message, and when it appeares. Just adjust your messages to it and it'll be fine.
There's actually no need for the message @battle, since after this box there's automatically the box at the offset @before.
So write the text from @battle to @before.
And correct the text, it would say "weakling" before the battle if the message with the pointer to "weakling" is before the battle command, or at "before".
When do u want to make the trainer say "weakling"?

I don't think there's a difference in scripting commands between FR/LG and R/S/E
Just make a wildbattle like this:

startwildbattle [pokemon number] [pokemon level] [item held] [filler] [filler]

and the trainerbattle is
trainerbattle 0x0 (or 0x1) 0x00 0x00 [<--these two bytes are the reversed trainer number] and then two pointers if u used trainerbattle 0x0, and three if u used 0x1.
trainerbattle 0x0 0x00 0x00 @before @after
message @beaten
end

trainerbattle 0x1 0x00 0x00 @before @after @later
end

 

[Ninja Caterpie]

Hmm...is it possible to take Pokemon away from you in a script?

 

[Master_Track]

I don't think so, I've never heard anything about something like takepokemon or what it would be like xD
U could let somebody steal the pokedex, but I doubt it's possible with pokemon.

 

[Trodx]

does any one know why my script keeps giving me an error message when I try to compile it?

 

[+Sneasel™]

Hmm...is it possible to take Pokemon away from you in a script?

Well, I know its possible in ASM, but in a script, the only person I know who can do it is Cooley, but he won't say how. He said he can only remove the first Pokemon in your party though...

 

[adiktus]

Change the offset of @path (message) to @1 and @sry (message) to @2.

Thank you very much
I've been dyin to get it to work and now works!

i want it to say that if you lose. thnx for help.

 

[Trodx]

Thanks alot adikus, It was a stupid mistake on my part...
Sorry for bothering you guys

 

[Austinia]

hey I got one quick question.... when I look at thethethethe's tut for scripting, I see the color scripts /c but how do you make only one part color? where is the end tag?

 

[Master_Track]

\c\h01\h05 would mean orange, for example
so
\c\h01\h05This text would appeare orange,\c\h01\h02but this would be black again ^^
so just use another colour code before the text u want to have another colour. If you want to make one world in another colour
use the code, the word, then the code for black
\c\h01\h02Just \c\h01\h04like \c\h01\h02this ^^

 

[Austinia]

! Thanks! XD I dunno how I was so dumb to not think of that x_X

The script has no errors but the sprite that I put it on will not show up during game play until the hero walks past it and turns.
I think it might have to do with some of those variables in Amap like unknown and person Id.

 

[xeladude]

Excuse me but, is there an item ID for the National Dex. My Hack is like FireRed but new areas and Pokemon. And the starters are from Johto and Hoenn. I need Oak to give you the National Dex after you give him the Parcel, and not a regular dex.

Make sure the person event number is not duplicated in that map, and if you don't want that person to disappear, put 0000 as person ID. If you want him to disappear, put in the flag and make sure the flag is previously unused. If nothing works, try deleting that person and readding him again.

After setting the dex flag, add special 0x16F to make it a National Dex.
