[ARCHIVE] Simple Questions (SEARCH BEFORE ASKING A QUESTION)

Is it fairly easy to replace May's sprites in Emerald (overworld, trainer card, and battle sprites) with that of Leaf's sprites in FR/LG? How would I go about doing this, and what tools would I need?

Thanks!

It's all of a matter of exporting the image from the ROM into another one. There are tutorials to do it in the Documents and Tutorials section, but I suggest you do not use leaf green for your hacking, as there are more tools available that work for fire red.

Does anyone know a (good working) map editor for Crystal?

Anybody knows a answer to my question?
I`ve tried GoldMap but after loading a testmap it said that the ROM has a wrong tileset.

You make a green s tile wth a script containing (for XSE)

warp 0x(map bank in hex) 0x(map no in hex) 0(a-map warp no in hex or FF) 0x(0 if you used n a-map warp no.,X coordinte if you used FF) 0x(0 if you used n a-map warp no.,X coordinte if you used FF)

warp 0xE 0x3 0xFF 0x2 0x2

warps you to map 3 of bank 14 2 spaces to the right and below the top left corner.

So how do I make it check to see if the player has a specific key item, and warp to one place if he/she does, and another otherwise?

Also, I made a simple test script to make sure I understood it correctly, but nothing happens when you step on the script tile. What's wrong with it?

'-----------------------
#org 0xEEEEEE
warp 0x0 0x9 0xFF 0x2 0x2

Anyone know some Pokemon Gold tools that are good?

Like sprite editors, and trainer editors, and gym leaders/elite fours/champion red editors that dont get an error when saving

In a-map on your script tile change the first unknown to 0003 and the var number to 5001

to make a check do

checkitem 0x(item number in hex) 0x1

Hey, thanks. I've found some threads and used unLZ-gba and the Overworld editor to change the May overworld sprites and the trainer front sprites. However, I can't seem to find anything that will help me change the backsprites.

I've found this here: https://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=182974 , and have been able to use Tile Molester to find the backsprites for May. But now I'm stuck.

I can copy and paste sprite sheets, but I don't know what to do after that. I paste the sheet, and it gives me some sort of selection mode. I can move around the newly pasted sheet, and see the original sprites underneath--I don't know how to make it just *stay* there and save on top of the sprites.

How do I get this to work after pasting the sprites on top?

Is there an easier way to do this? It looks like Leaf's backsprites are still in the game, right after Brendan and May--can I tell the game to use those instead?

EDIT: Nevermind, figured it out. I've gotten the backsprite working now, but I have some residual palette issues--there is a spot of green on the hat where a shadow should be, and the coloration in general seems odd. I've imported the palette in TM though, so I am not sure what else to do. The palette seems to be working perfectly fine inside TM.

EDIT: Got it. Figured out how to search with APE. Huzzah.

In a-map on your script tile change the first unknown to 0003 and the var number to 5001

to make a check do

checkitem 0x(item number in hex) 0x1

Not 5001, 4050....

I dunno why you think it's 5001...

Not 5001, 4050....

Actually there's where you put the var you're going to set in the script to prevent repeating.

Elaborate, for the longest time, 4050 has been the standard, the rule of thumb, explain please.

Can anyone tell me the APE offset for the battle status bar in Firered?

Grrowl! I wrote a tutorial on how to find APE offsets, looks like my efforts were none too rewarding >_<

Here's the tutorial~

 

[colcolstyles]

Elaborate, for the longest time, 4050 has been the standard, the rule of thumb, explain please.

The variable that you put in the "Var number" text box is the variable that is compared with the value in the "Var value" text box. If the two are equal, the script will execute. If not, then the script won't execute. The only reason people think that the "Var number" has to be 4050 or whatever is that 4050 is the variable assigned to the script tile in Pallet Town which, naturally, is the first script tile people found when looking for ways to make their scripts work.
So, as H2O Turquoise was saying, if you have the Var number as 0x7000 and the var value as 0x0000, at the end of the script that you assigned to that script tile you would put something like "addvar 0x7000 0x1" or "setvar 0x7000 0x1" or by any means make 0x7000 not equal to 0x0001.

As for the unknown, well, there's a reason it's called unknown. :P

(Also, do you have that "player can move while the script is executing" script yet? You said you could do it but I'll believe it when I see it)

 

[FireShock]

Thanks for the tut I normally use the Map Viewer to find a APE offset but, for some reason the Status Bar in battle doesn't come up in the Map Viewer so this way works better for me thanks.

Hi, I'm trying to change trainer's pokemon, I tried using PET but it would not read my fire red rom. Can somebody help me with this?

You should try using HackMew's Advance Trainer that is what I use and it works perfectly you can download it from his tools in the Toolbox Forum.

The player will sometimes look like he/she's able to move but in actual fact the script has finished and the graphics being displayed haven't. An example of this would be making an earthqauke script. Even though you put waitstate at the end, you'll be able to walk about because the actually script has finished, but the earthquake graphics haven't. :3

can any one tell me how ican edit text pokemon soulsilver

 

[Tropical Sunlight]

I have this idea and I'd like to use it.

The Gym Leader challenges you to a race. You do the talk, everything then applymovement. No waitmovement following, just a release. When the Gym Leader finishes moving, you lose. But if you get to a trigger script before the GL, you win.
Would that be possible?

 

[simonrule18]
