How to find trainer number in hex?
 
It'll say in Advance Trainer (if that's the tool you're using).
Spoiler:

Where it says Trainer Selection, there's a window that has the trainer's number followed by their name (well, it's supposed to display the name, but everyone's name is blank in that picture).

That's right, i forgot that. The before text doesn't exist. This means that no pre-message is possible if you use it like a standard trainer, but it is good for script tiles and E4 battles and such.

Also, the trainers number doesn't need to be in hex if you don't out "0x" before it.

Also is there a way to disable the screen in firered that appears when you give a pokemon an item? It's really annoying and I feel like it's a simple hex change. In case you don't know what I'm talking about, heres a picture.

I hate to bump, but nobody seemed to acknowledge the second part of my question from the previous post so here it is again

So, this will be the script now?
Spoiler:

And to find a free space offset, you need a free space finder right?

Nope, XSE does that for you.

(Note: I am using PKSV as a script viewer, so please give me instructions for that).
I was wondering how (when you make a givepokemon script) you can make 3 choices. And if possible make them appear in pokeballs lying on the ground. (In this part, just the pokeballs that contain items. I would also like to know how to insert one of these in the games.

I know I have already asked a lot, but I would also like to know how to keep the player from taking any more. Thank you!
 
Okay, so my question isn't about scripting or coding or anything technical. It pertains to patching, how does one patch a ROM with a hack of said ROM, say I wanted to pay Pokemon ultra violet, and need to patch it onto FireRed or something..normally this would be no problem on a computer BUT here is the thing,I don't have a computer. I use my phone and the app I use to play gba roms is the My Boy Free Android app. I REALLY want to play the aforementioned game (U.V.) But I can't find it a a straight up ROM, only an ips. This isn't the only game I want to pay thete are many more but, continue to have this heart breaking Problem.. HELP please?
 
Well these hacking tools are only for the computer. There is no IPS patcher for any phone unless you're using a windows phone (Which should be able to open LIPS, I never used one)
 
Hey guys, how do you animate a tile with multiple blocks? By that I mean what number am i supposed to put in for the block/tile number in the tile animator program? Because i read the tut for using it, but i didnt happen to see them edit more than one block at a time. I can reword this if the question isnt perfectly clear.

You animate tiles, not blocks.


Spoiler:


The tile will always be animated when you use it in a block.

I am playing "straight" unhacked Emerald on Visual Boy Advance, but have no wi-fi connection available. Is it possible to trade Pokémon between games under these two circumstances?


  1. Between two unhacked Gen III games on the same emulator (e.g.. trading eggs to myself in a different game).
  2. Between Gen III and Gen IV on another emulator (e.g., having Emerald in the GBA slot of DeSmuME, and reading PC data from Emerald to send to Pal Park).
If either of these trade situations can be done without wi-fi, please give me instructions for setting them up. Thanks so much!

This is rom hacking. Not emulation help. However:


1) Yes, using VBA-Link.

2)Yes, I've done it.

WiFi is not at all needed. In fact, no emulators can use wifi connectivity yet.

When you are done, try running it through a person event.

Unfortunately, I couldn't find a more suitable thread for the technical side of gaming with an emulator (not for Gen III games, at least). Could the mods please create that topic and move my question there?

P.S. Where/how do I get VBA-Link?
 
So, just for the hell of it, I put one of the 25 ??? slots in the wild and caught it (Fire Red), just to see what would happen. It doesn't show up in the dex, which I don't especially care about, and on the attempt to show the pokedex screen when I catch the thing, it shows the most recently viewed pokedex entry. I thought from there that the game would crash if I didn't view anything in the pokedex, but no, in that case it just skips the screen entirely.

From casual testing experience it seems like there's no reason they can't be wild if you don't mind the wrong Pokedex entry possibly popping up. Why does everybody say it's so bad/say the game crashes?

I noticed that the Pokecenter scripts in Emerald set var 0x800B to 0x1, and then all of the applymovement commands in the script use "0x800B" as the person ID. (0x1 therefore corresponds to the nurse)
I tried a similar script with the trainerbattle command, but it just seem to run past it to the post-battle texts. Any thought on why the variable works for applymovement but not trainerbattle?
