    Hey, is there a list that tells you which D/P pokemon have the same palette as The other 386? Cuz chimchar has no match To my knowledge.

    i am in the process of putting D/P sprites into my firered hack, and it was smooth sailing until i hit charziard and that stupid sprite is to big. i've compressed it, done everything. and if i unchech the "abort if data is to big button" it screws up the sprite! HELP ME!

    Where do i get my pokemon pics INDEXED?

    to the three of you... there's a tutorial in the Documents and Tutorials' section by Red Yoshi on how to do so.
    Check it out. It can help ya a lot. :3

  • How to put DP pokemon into FR/LG, quick guide since everyone asks:
    1. get your sprite
    2. make sure it's 64x64 and 16 colors, make it smaller if you have to
    3. save it as a png with 256 colors (but only 16 used). it is now indexed.
    4. insert it into the rom using unlzgba.
    5. if unlzgba says it's too big, use free space finder to find 64 free bytes, and tell unlzgba to offset the image with the number free space finder gives you.

    oh... okay...
    well, I have a new problem though... :\

    I accidentally 'always open this file' the .s file (the result after dragging midi file to mid2agb) to notepad, and now, Sappy won't assemble it.

    any thoughts on how to fix this?
    I tried to delete and extract it again... same problem... :\
    thankies~

  • right click it
    open with >
    choose program

    that will let you change what opens it. if you want to remove any association, go to any folder, hit tools, folder options, file formats tab. find .s and remove it from the list.

  • I tried searching the thread for this but my search term got omitted for being too common, so I'm posting it here.

    I was wondering how to change the names of a pokemon in the data, for example changing POOCHYENA to CHIMCHAR. In the event that Poochyena is encountered in the hacked game, it would not display Poochyena on the battle status bar, instead it would display Chimchar. This would also apply to the pokedex entry.

    you need a table file and a hex editor, you open the table file in notepad and work out what POOCHYENA is in hex bytes, then do a search for it, and replace it with whatever CHIMCHAR is in hex bytes





    still nobody knows what i need to do to remove articuno's ability to flee in Gold?

    direct me to the right thread if i am wrong.

    hmm, i know how to alter tiles in a-map like make one tile a certain color, like a yellow tree without making the rest like that, i'm good with palette editing and spriting, etc...
    w/e right...

    well i came here to ask if there is a 'good' tutorial or anything of the sort on how to upload custom sprites..?
    Editing palettes and stuff becomes too tedious, i want to know if there is a way to get my stuff into the game quick, and easy--i know is not an option^-^
    i have custom made pokemon centers, marts, buildings and trees
    [in which i do not plan to release until hack finish]


    so if anyone knows even a teency bit that could help me, i would much appreciate it.

  • Heres a different type of question:

    Say you have two people working on a hack.

    One person is scripting and one person is mapping.

    Will it work if the mapper saves changer and applies the script changes after? Or will it revert the maps?

  • I'm pretty sure that as long as you keep the free space clear you should be able to merge the changes by Patching. The free space thing is important though, because if a new map goes on the position your scripter is inserting their scripts into it could be disastrous when you merge. I'm pretty sure these facts are correct because me and my mate used to muck around with hacking and then merge back together and it never screwed up(although our hacks were always halfdone and pretty crappy).
