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

Hi everyone. I got a question here...
I replaced an old trainer sprite for my new one, but it was too big, so I repointed it to a clean offset.
But when I tried it out, before even going to a battle scene, the game crashed.
Yes, it's in png format and 16 colours and 64x64 in size.

How can I fix this?
If can't, then how can I restore the trainer to have it's original sprite back?

&h25E014, &h45A608 and &h45A870 all contain a list of the HM attacks (0F00, 1300, 3900, 4600, 9400, F900, 7F00 and 2301). I assume changing all three will result in a changed attack.

That's in hex editor? Or where do I search for the offsets?

And I've got another problem: When I pick up a Pokeball, it reappears...

Thanks for the help :D Sadly, it doesn't seem to work? Either that or I'm misunderstanding your instructions. So if my text pointer in hex says 80CE93, 93CE80 would be its offset? Then I subtract two from the hex to make 93CE7E. Then...it should work? I subtrated from both the decimal and the hex, neither worked. I guess I just failed at understanding your instructions. Is it possible that someone could help me find the offset of pointer 80CE93 just by using this method? Thanks again, though.

No, I will explain it better:
80CE93 ---> 93CE8008 ok? Then, do a research in the rom with your Hex editor of 93CE8008.
When you find that, put in XSE the offset WHERE 93CE8008 is -2 (Ex. 805505-2=805502).
So, you found the script.

Try repointing to a working sprite (some random trainer or something), test, and see if it crashes. If not, delete your inserted sprite, re-insert it, and repoint it again. If yes, then... ick. I like the Ruby Destiny series...

I'm using &h to refer to a hexadecimal address, so yeah. With the Pokéball, you'll need to set a flag within the script, and then attach that flag to the Pokéball. Seriously, most of the scripting tutorials in the Tutorials & Documents section will tell you how to do it.

I'd love to do that, but the question is, how can I delete it?
Unlz-GBA can't read the newly inserted sprite. It only loads the old ones, but if I replace the old one with a new one, nothing happens.

I can try deleting the offset through a hex editor but I forgot what offset I used for the new sprite. :\
 
pokemon r/b/y hacking

alright this is going to seem like a very n00bish string of questions. im trying to make a hack of pokemon blue. things i'd like to know are:

1. how can you change the number of pokemon in the title screen from 16 to 15? i keep editing it in RBTitlescreenEditor, but a new one always appears which i didn't add.

2. how can i extract/replace the pokemon graphics? i cant seem to find any guides for 1st generation pokemon games.

3. can i change the internal name of the rom?

4. which bank/block in poketext is the text for the title screen under?

i've found countless guides for hacking r/s/e and fr/lg, but zero to none for anything earlier than that. thanx in advance.

That involves some stuff about compressed and uncompressed data I have no idea about. You might want to ask someone who's done it - The Dude - for some help.

UNLZ-GBA generates a .pal and .spr file when it reads a rom, I believe. Delete these, then look again.

Alternatively, load a clean rom, find the pointer for the trainer you replaced, and go to that location in your new rom.
 
Guys I Need Your Help .... i've Changed the Pallets of Something IN RUBY AXVE in APE
Now how to Write it to rom?
 
I do apologize if this has been asked and answered already, I did attempt searching but that can be a pain when what you're searching for involves palettes, lots of posts have that in them after all. I simply wish to inquire whether or not it is possible to insert a completely new palette WITHOUT messing with already existing ones. I do have one other question but I have a feeling I'll probably be redirected to scripting help on it, and that's related to having a pokemon follow you in FR/LG.

Thank you for taking your time to read this and I will be quite grateful for any input on the subject.
