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

[Lukeyjohnno]

Alright, I've gotten a weird reaction from my ROM. When I inserted a simple XSE message script for a NPC (I've inserted them before, mind you) in my Ruby hack, it didn't work. I hit the A button (which is my space bar), and it continued walking around, as if the script was never inserted. It looks like the script was even compiled correctly.

Then, I inserted the script into a clean Ruby ROM, and it worked. I tried everything I can; copied exactly the statistics of that sprite, etc. This is the script I used, though I don't think there's anything wrong with it...

Spoiler:

#Dynamic 0x800000

#org @talk
msgbox @talk2 0x2
end

#org @talk2
= This is a message script test.

Have you tried adding a LockPlayer script?

 

[Medo0]

Sorry, no I don't. I don't use Poketscript. I only XSE script.

that's not PS Script it's a Compiled XSE
BTW : do you know where to get scripts?

Oh. No I don't.
But if you want tutorials look on the Pokecommunity.

Have you tried decompiling it? That's happened to me before, and there was nothing on the script just #ORG @blah then release and end. Also, was the NPC already there? Or did you add him? If he was already there, try removing him, and adding a new NPC. Also, try adding lock, boxset 2 only does faceplayer :P

Have you tried adding a LockPlayer script?

There is no such thing as a lockplayer script, or a command for that matter. There is lock, which locks the NPC's. There's lockall, which locks everything including the player, and the camera.

Yes there is!
I meant to say Lock, not LockPlayer.

Can anyone shed some light on how the learnable move tutor moves are coded in FireRed? I presumed they'd be in the format of TMs/HMs, a series of binary switches, but I tested that theory, and it didn't pan out (IE: no, no they are not).

Anyone know how to say, change Bulbasaur to be able to learn Mega Kick?

Quoted for emphasis.

Man, it'd be really cool if people who need script help checked out the scripting help thread.

Okay, I put some trees on a mountain with the movement permission of 10, and I walk OVER the treetops, even though the background byte is set to 00. It works on C ground, but not there. Is this just bound to happen, or is there some way I can prevent it?

The data starts at 459B60 for FR and 459580 for LG. Its just the hex numbers of the attacks. The compatibility is either before or after that data I can't remember which. It'll be a hex number like 9201, just put it in the calculator and convert to binary. It's just a bunch of binary switches.

You can't unfortunately you'll just have to arrange it so that there is C on the tree tops. It should be possible in a lot of cases.

How do you start from scratch when editing a ROM?
Like for example I'm editing a Fire Red ROM and I want the player to start out with his running shoes, pokedex, etc. and I want every aspect of the game to be changed, storyline, gyms, progression...
So how?
Thanks

Well, there are many things you have to do. Start with reading some tutorials on scripting and mapping, and get the tools required with each. You can go from there.

I've already looked at tutorials, otherwise I would not be asking this question.


Edit: Off-Topic to my question, but why do I not see a "Compile" option when I right click. I've already installed Pokescript.

Well, you need to read them better, I guess. Did you save it as [Script].rbc?

I have a major tile problem. I expended the tileset, then inserted some tiles/edited palettes. I block edited, and the behaviour byte and background byte are random. When I open in in VBA, it looks like this:

I edit the Behaviour and background bytes to normal(00 00), and test again. Now the tiles I fixed are alright, but other tiles have the same problem. I have no idea why this is happening. Is it because I expanded the tileset? Please help if ya can~

A-Map sometimes repoints to places that don't have enough free space. There is an option to disable automatic searching for offsets in A-Map. Find a place with plenty of space and repoint it there.

Firered just to say it!

I don't know if this is a simple question and i have tried to search too. When i make a warp script, i want to warp to a new map and the number is 3.66, 1 more than 65 which is the normal amount in advanced map because i inserted a new map but a black screen comes and nothing else when i try, every map else works fine without the new created ones? Whats wrong? How do i fix this?

Can someone give me the unLZ numbers for the Badges in Emerald?
I know there is a topic here about that, but they only give the number of the Battle Frontier Symbols (2525), not the regular Badges...

And is there a way/tool to really edit the funcions of items?
Like, can I make a Focus Sash or that kind of stuff in Emerald?

Also, how can I edit the Trainer Battle intro? (Pokémon emerald)
I want to edit the big "Team Aqua sign" that flashes when you battle a Team Aqua member.
I mean the logo that flashes right before you start the Trainer Battle.
Is it editable in unLZ? If so, what is the number? I've searched unLz a coupl of times already, but I can't seem to find the logo...

I do not think the Aqua sign in Emerald is editable, even though, you would need to be a very advanced hacker to do that, but with a little luck you may find it. I would say hack Ruby istead of emerald, so much easier!

Have you editted the map size of your 3.66 map?
If so, try to re-insert the map.
Sometimes, making a map smaller can fk it up ;P

Try re-inserting the map anyway, or in a different location.
It might help.

Making smaller and try to re-inserting don't work, just tested it, but so far i think i just replace another map with it.

Thanks for any help given...

Yes, I did. Please, someone give me a solution longer than one sentence and two brain cells.
