[EM] Battle Engine Upgrade (On Halt, Will undergo reboot!)

[Trainer 781]

How do we Enable the Mega Rayquaza evolution in G3T

Add this line:
FC=Wish Mega Evolution

in the Customizations.ini file.

Then in the evolutions tab set the 'Condition' to 'Wish Mega Evolution'. And nothing required to the index of move in decimal required to trigger the wish mega evolution.

I have driven my experiments further and tested plain speed values for now, one problem accuring is integer division:
https://puu.sh/qGNfn/ab87185d33.png
This should mathematically be 75 / 60, but because of inaccurate division it is not. This mathematical flaw could be compensated with adding artificial accuracy (I don't know how to implement floats or how to use them correctly with what the engine provides)

So, what I did is in the get_speed(u8 bank) routine I changed the first line and the last:

u32 speed = battle_participants[bank].spd << 16
//calculations
return (u16)(speed >> 16)

those additional 16 bits of accuracy are enough for most situations, and if not, they at least enhance the precision by a lot. In my case it was enough to pass the test: https://puu.sh/qGNC6/10bb9c738e.png

you should get a build folder after that command then wait until you can type again in cmd. when in doubt just press ctrl+c in cmd and it should cancel its process.

Thanks it worked hahaha all I had to do was wait lol

How can i edit the moves in G3T

 

[jeauhervil]

How can I make this work on Pokemon Glazed? after inserting the engine the test version just show white screen..

Try changing the offset to insert to x1F00000 from xF00000 given in the instructions in the main post.

 

[jeauhervil]

Thank you very much! I'll try it later..

 

[Arkydon]

Can we apply this to theta emerald... tried different offsets but game freezes

 

[jeauhervil]

It Worked...
but the thing is... after recieving the first pokemon, it has no move available...

so it crashes at the start of the first battle

I think they might have conflicting hooks. I'll look at it whenever I get time

How can i edit the moves in G3T

What moves, the move editor or the learnsets?

 

[xerveltal]

Learnsets and also Move Tutor moves

Okay, I made it work on Glazed. Set the offset in the insert script to x1F00000 and in the linker file file to x9F00000. So in general, what you set in insert file, you add x8000000 to it and set the resultant value. in the linker file. I'll update the instructions in OP.
Same thing goes for Theta Emerald I think.

Learnsets and also Move Tutor moves

Use PGE for these. Currently, G3T doesn't support the new learnset style.

Thanks but it doesn't seem to work for Theta Emerald.

 

[Trainer 781]

Thanks but it doesn't seem to work for Theta Emerald.

I think then it must be because of clashing battle hooks while Glazed doesnt seem to have those.

Not sure about the balls though. Might save it for the last.
I'll leave Shiny Charm to the hacker. But if there are a good no. of demands I might consider adding the balls and the charm..

I think if you do include Balls it should be done as an optional feature like the removal of Pokemon encryption as it breaks save files.

Another feature I was thinking we should port would be the breeding fixes and the 6th gen IV generation. Although it's not specifically battle related, it does have an effect on competitive battling.

Hidden abilities would be good too. I'll work on porting some of these in addition to the current animations I'm doing!

I'll make the optional features customizable in the python scripts itself.
Breeding fixes also look important. We should dicuss this in detail whenever we meet on chat.

Why do new Pokeballs break save files? That would break compatibility with consoles as well then, yes?

it breaks save files like pokemon encryption breaks save files: by restructuring a part of the pokemon data to include more poke ball slots
the existing pokemon then have the index of their original ball x2, and this places some of the higher original indexes out-of-bounds
