Research: [GENERAL THREAD] Pokémon Heart Gold/Soul Silver Hacking

Hey, I did it in 5 minutes! but I'll start making a model list for HGSS soon, AND yes, I will begin a productive hack that isn't trash soon. I'm still planing on making a model location editor if i can get .NET.

I think I have about everything I could possibly need for veekun by now, but this is excellent and I applaud your efforts.


Oho. It would be really nice to have flattened maps of all the areas sometime, for a beautiful visual walkthrough of Johto/Sinnoh. I've seen a few for D/P on Bulbapedia, but I suspect they come from lots of screenshots or are manually put together.

Thanks, I know most of the data extraction stuff has been found but in terms of knowing where something is so it can be edited, there's a ways to go.

Also I'm sure you're right about the screenshots.

Any one who has tried to put screenshots together knows it doesn't work.

There is someone on devianart that was making the maps. Basically doing them in 2D from scratch.

This is one for the persons working on it: https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/User:Nuck_Chorris So I think its grab individual screenshots of things (like trees and buildings) using the code I provided for nsbmd viewer to work for most pokemon models, then use photoshop/paint to make things look good.

Not full screenshots, of course; there's perspective. But you could get a good start by just using the middle column of tiles. No antialiasing means no perspective right in the center.

Wrong. It is possible to create maps using screenshots. There's an Action Replay code that "flattens" everything as if you were in a building. That's how this map from Bulbapedia was made.

The palette is right next to the logo file. /a/0/4/6/02 for SS and 04 for HG.
 
Help

How do I open the files like a/0/4/6 (that's an example I dont want to open that file, just a different file in the a folder)
 
Okay I made a new thread about this but whatever. I used PokeDSPic to edit the Pokemon sprites, however...when I replaced Chikorita's sprite it said the file wasn't 8bpp indexed and probably wouldn't work. How do I save a file in said format? I've tried googling it with no results.
