    I had created another day and night-system now with seasons. It's based on interdpth's RTC and supports R/S/FR/LG/Em in all languages. Unfortunately you must install interdpth's RTC in R/S/Em too to use this DNS-System. But this tool can install it, so you need only a few bytes of free space in your ROM.

    Additionally...

    • ... Offsets in 32MB ROMs are supportet and you can decide if you want to write the Offset with the 8, 9 or nothing, 1.
    • ... the DNS supports battles.
    • ... I had to split the 5th time period in the script at midnight so I had decided to make 6 time periods.
    • ... you can decide to install all, the RTC and DAN, the RTC and seasons or only the RTC.
    • ... finally both systems (DAN and Seasons) writes an statusbyte in the RAM which represents the current time period and Season.
    Screen:

    Unfortunately i'm not allowed to post any links or pictures from the DAN, because i have less then 15 posts. So i must post censored links...

    Thanks Prime-dialga now I can make season-exclusive Pokemon
     
    Hmm it seems that turning off the DAN Battles causes the game to crash upon entering a battle.
     
    Seems both very useful and very interesting.

    Being a beginning hacker, I hope you build more tools like this--there are many trainer editors, etc., but few things like these.
     
    Other than the fact that setting the clock in RSE (and also Jambo's custom day-of-the-week setting routine) is no no longer supported, I like this tool. At least the clock is displayed correctly. If you could just add in support for these two things, I would be grateful.

    In other news, I seem to not be able to remove the old RTC/DN system from my FireRed ROM. It gives me an unhandled exception and quits.

    in my rom i have the old dan system how do i delete it?
     
    I used it in a Fire Red 1.0 ROM on XP...
    Good news is it worked fine..
    Bad news is I don't know how to use it. = (
    Can anyone post a tutorial?

    Thanks.
     
    I had intalled the RTC and DAN system in Emerald rom (Japanese version) and used the GBA flash card with the RTC to play it. I found out that the background palette won't changes along with all the time periods, it always the dark night (dark blue palette). If I use the emulator to play it, the background palette will change along with the RTC that inside the computer. May I have a DAN system that the background palette will change along with the RTC which inside Emerald rom itself? Please help me to achieve it. Thanks a lot.

    PS: Sorry for my poor English

    Nice! I installed the RTC in my hack, and it's pretty nifty!
    One question though... how do I access that "statusbyte" thingy that displays the time?
    I mean, it showed a statusbyte thingy offset but how do I display its status in the ROM?
    Please help. :)
