  • I'm working on a Leaf Green hack, and I've found out how (tools mostly) to edit pretty much everything I need except a couple things.

    What is the preferred method for changing pokedex data, and the game's credits? If there isn't a tool, any pointers on where to look for them in hex? I didn't notice either of these in a-text, but if I'm missing an obvious setting that would be good news too.

    Ok, so I'm going to start a good ol' Red hack. (you can't beat old school.(don't try.)). Does anybody have any suggestions on what tools to use? I don't want to use hex. I know about Pokemap, but its too incomplete and messy for me. Anybody have any other tools I should use?

  • Palletes in shops and teachy tv

    I have two questions...

    Anyone knows how to change the pallete chosen (not edit the pallete, but change which pallete index is used) in pokeshops? Noramlly, the guy at the shop has a blue pallete (it was red in the original game, but I changed it), but when I talk to him and chose "BUY" his pallete changes to the default one. This might take only edit one byte.

    Also, is it possible to hack the teachy dude animations? At least, just the pokemon or attacks used. Because I've edited some pokémon and now I realized there are incoherent things like a bird pokémon making hyper fang (birds have no teeth)

    _________________________-

    Cryomancer, just use an hex editor and look for the text.

    Just via Pet. If you tried it before asking, you'd realize you were right. Don't be shy on trying stuff when hacking (unless you forget to make backups)

    Advanced 'hacking', modifing the program itself, etc. In other words, not possible via normal hacking.

    Then you're not going to get anywhere. There are very few tools for RBY, and in any case, using hexadecimal isn't nearly as difficult as people make it sound.

    Work with hex and you'll get a much better understanding of how the game works, and you won't have to worry about the lack of utilities.

    I'm new to this forum, and I've been searching for a couple days now (due to not recieving the verification email for a while), and I would like to know some things.

    1. When I edit sprites from unLZ GBA, and import the new ones, it changes all the colors of the pokemon sometimes or add a a little line of random colors somewhere one the sprite.

    2. I added a sprite with nothing wrong with it, it appears fine when the other trainer has it, but when I have it, its back picture looks as if it were normal.

    3. How do I change pokedex information without using A-text (it doesn't find it for some reason), dexter (it gives my all these weird symbols),or scripting (new and can't really do it).

    I tried and when I versed Gary the second time (when he catches a Pidgey) I changed it so he had Eevee and Spearow. His Eevee is still a Squirtle and his Spearow knows Amnesia, Sand Attack, Tackle and Thunderpunch though! Have I done something wrong?

  • Well I know one thing. When you load a ROM in Pet it scrambles the moves of Pokemon. You're better off finding a new program :/

  • who knows the emerald ofsets of the tiles for APE

    You should use unlz.gba and search for the tilesets or you take advancemap/elitemap and edit them there. If you take elitemap, just open the rom and select the map you want to edit. after that in your elitemapfolder is an folder named tilecache an in this folder are the tiles of the map, just edit it and save it(don't change the name of the file!!!!!)open the map again and elitemap is going to use your edited tileset. that's the easiest way. but if someone has an easier way post it

    I don´t know if it works with Tile Molester, but you can edit it with unLZ.GBA. Don´t ask me what number it is^^
    You can get unLZ in the Toolbox thread from Treecko lvl. 100, and there is a thread in the Documents and Tutorials Threat.
    Hope this helped^^

    It is possibel. You just have to edit the maps. To make three would be quite hard as in no game would you have enough maps...
