You have to put a setflag in your script, and then assign that setflag to the Person ID.

For example:

Code: 
...
if 0x1 goto @end
[B]setflag 0x1000[/B]
release
...
And then, in A-Map:

Code: 
...
Script Offset: $800000
[B]Person ID: 1000[/B]
Unknown: 00 00
...
Don't pay attention to whatever else I typed in the "script" besides the bold, I just made that up in my head. ^^

Sorry 'bout the double post, but does anyone know if you can use a fadescreen, then warp, and undo the fadescreen w/o revealing the screen at all?

I tried, but it faded the screen, showed it before it warped, and faded once more, where it was supposed to warp. I really would like to know if it's possible.

Thankies much ^^

Just Warp, when you warp, it automatically fades the screen out.
Unless you are going for a "White out" Then... I don't know... Sorry...
 
I cant get it to work?? when ever i put the code into XSE it changes it and erases some of the lines. so the script doesnt do what i want it to!!
Click to expand...

Ok well i got it to work....mostly.... now the only problem is that befor i get the badge he doesnt say anything and it only makes the clicking sound...??
Click to expand...

OK nvm lol i got it. i just played around with the script. but thank you very much for helping me!!
Click to expand...

ok no now i do have a problem. i tried to add more movements to my script and they all work untill the last one. then everything just stays frozen like asif someone were talking to me but the guy is gone?

Did you actually recompile the dynamic script, or just just added some movements to a decompiled script?
Because you should never do the latter one. Data gets overwritten easily if you don't pay attention.
 
Script freezes the whole game up, its in XSE if you know what is wrong please tell me, and dont just post the revised correct script, tell me why it was wrong.

Is this a person event, or a script event (S)? If it is a script event, do not forget to put in Advance map the following; Unknown: 0003, and var number: 5040, or 4050.
 
ok i have a script that is supposed to alert someone make them walk to me say somthing then make me follow them then give me a pokemon, i use notepad and pokescript, whenever i put the script in my game all that happens is it puts a ? above hiros head and asks yes or no, either you hit the screen goes pink

Spoiler:


Try this. You spelled applymovement once wrong, and there's no such thing as applymovement 0x00. It should be applymovement 0x0<person event number>. I assumed it's 0x04. You also forgot waitfanfare under the fanfare 0x13E.

When you compiled the script, an offset came up. Did you copy the $offset, and placed it in Advance Map? Read this; Click for more information.

Ugh. I am sorry for being such a total noob at this, but I cannot get this damned scripting to work for the life of me. I'm also entirely unsure if I'm using XSE correctly, so allow me to throw myself at your mercy and admit my own lack of competence :(

Okay. So I have this PART of a script I'm working with.

What I'm trying to do exactly is have this character walk into Oak's lab, walk up three spaces and over seven to the left, look up and then talk to him about whatever I choose. Then, select one of the three pokeballs between the two, with that nice little picture popping up and the "DO YOU CHOOSE SO AND SO TO BE YOUR LAWFULLY WEDDED WI--I MEAN POKEMON COMPANION" jazz to go on. However, I can't get the script to work and also, whenever I try to compile it I get two new numbers at the bottom, so I substitute those into the script and then I get two entirely new numbers.

Also, what would you suggest I should use to check for the unused flags? I don't really know what to use to do that.

As I said, I used to know what I was doing and now I do not. I've spent hours examining the scripts in the original game to do so, and I've confused myself into scripted oblivion. Help!
 
I just need a simple command help, I need to know how to MAKE the player surf, because it's early in the game and all the player has to do is get across a river.

I know how to do everything else, I just don't know what the command is to surf, if anyone understands me :S

Start with flags starting from 1000. You need "waitmovement 0" after a movement. Theres also no need for that release command you've used, that'll be causing you some problems.

A good way to learn is to decompile scripts and see how it is done. Try decompiling the PokeBalls in Oak's Lab.
