ASM BY JAMBO51 PEOPLE! THIS IS WHY HE QUIT, NOBODY APPRECIATES HIS STUFF

Well if he made a patch for this or a tool I think more people would have appreciate his stuff
not everyone knows how to use asm...
But there's a youtube tutorial at least.

It's ASM though. You must have read Hackmew's tutorial on how to insert.

Well you need to change the names in text, and the icons too.

Hello PC! I was wondering if one of you guys could answer a question I have.

I am currently making tilesets and I changed the look of the grass tileset. However I don't know where to change the animation when you walk on the grass. Anyone know the best way to edit the grass tileset? I could find the grass tile on Tileset Animation Editor so i'm assuming I might have to use a different program or something along those lines?

Well anyway, let me know if you guys know how to edit the grass in the game.

JPAN's OW hack combined with this addon: https://www.romhackersonline.com/showthread.php?t=14286-REAL-Runtime-Player-Customization-PKMN-GBA

I'm having a problem with either XSE or Advanced Map.

I've been creating my hack and I decided to insert some scripts, and they compile fine, but when I go to insert them into Advanced Map, even after I save, they don't perform in game. Like, even something simple like a script for a signpost.

The offset remains in Advanced Map 1.95, but it simply will not work in-game.

I've tried with 1.92 and it still didn't work.

So, I can't figure out what's wrong. I even tried it on a clean Fire Red ROM and it still didn't work.


Please help?

How do I go about changing the names of the Towns in Fire Red/Emerald?

...Also, I asked a while back if I could use Newer Gen Overworlds and was told yes, anyone know of a tutorial on how to do that?

Can you provide an example of a script that you made that didn't work in-game?

You need to expand the OW's sprite size, I think there's a lot of tutorials going on about that.

 

[Winter Wonderland]

Yeah, Blazer. Something simple like

#dynamic 0x800000

#org @start
msgbox @sign 0x3
end

#org @sign
= 'Sup.

Hmm, could you screenshot what it looks like in Advance map?

Does anyone know an offset in the IWRAM where at least 600 (0x258) bytes can be stored in an Emerald version (BPEE)? Or does anyone know how I can find an offset? My attempts keep getting me mixed results, which all result in crashes, slow downs, or speedups...

Just go in VBA's memory viewer under the tools tab. Then look for FF bytes there. Just make sure there are none at the time of the event, since the RAM is constantly used and updated.

Is there any way to lock the camera in FR? So that it doesn't follow the player.

I'm trying to make a script using movecamera, but instead of the camera returning to the player, I want the player to run onto the screen. When I do this, however, the camera moves too.

No, yet imagination is key.
Have a fadescreen to black
hide the player
fadescreen to normal
have a new person event run onto the screen into your spot
have him face up
show you
hide the new person event

Bam, you just "ran onto the screen"

Free space in RAM is denoted by back to back 00's, not FFs, but otherwise you're 100% right.

Ok, I was thinking that's what he meant. The only FF bytes I could find were in very small clusters, whereas I found hundreds of 00 bytes. Thanks for clarifying.
