Okay, one question, when I open Pokémon DP in the Nitro Explorer, which file contains the text?
And am I correct when I say that the data is byteswapped - little endian?

Well you could try to help figure out what some of the unknown values used in event files are for.

Do you have the rom in the same folder as thenepoketext.exe?

Ok now I have all of the hacking tools but how do you open .narc files?

Well you can use NDS editor to unpack the .narc But that won't really help you unless you want to figure out the formats yourself. The narcs are opened by whatever editor you are using (if they say they use the .narc)

For example, in PokeDSPic you load the relevant .narc.

First of all don't request roms.

Second, if you want to change sprites why are you using thenewpoketext?

You have to use the right list for offsets. Search this thread for Poketex anf you will find a list of offsets for the US version.

Follow the directions. It says to put msg.narc in the directory. You don't open any rom with it.

But again, that has nothing to do with editing sprites.

He speaks of PokéTEX, not New Pokétext. The first one edits sprites, the second one edits text.

By the way, now that I have the game opened in Nitro Explorer, what file contains the text? I can't seem to find msg.narc D:

Great, I got it to work!

Can I change the table to my liking? I want to add some new characters to the game. The xml it creates is in Unicode, right.
Anyone knows where the font graphics is stored? Hope it's not compressed >.<;

Hi, sorry if this has been asked before but can you do proper scripting where you make the events yourself and place then and everything yet?
Also, I wanted to ask if you have figured out how to do movement permissions or anything like that.

By the way, can't wait for that Map Editor mentioned a page back.

By saying you think that we're ready for a map editing tool you're proving that you haven't done your homework.
