Fine, bye.

A map editor, even though it is in high demand, will be incredibly hard to make, as everything near enough uses 3D polygons, and that is shown playing through the games. True that this could possibly be manipulated and able to place if a tool was created, but for Tiles, it would make them even harder to do. And to make good maps, you may need new tiles.

Rather ironic that you should say that. I recommend you get together a few buddies, pull your heads out of wherever they are lodged, and take a good look around this forum.

Sorry if I'm not able to put questions here.. But I really want an answer.

I know we can edit the Trainers' Pokémon in HG / SS already, but how good? Here are my questions:

1) Are we already able to edit the Trainers' Pokémon in HG / SS as good as in DPP?

2) If I'm going to edit the Trainers' Pokémon in HG / SS now, can I use the edited .narc file for the English HG / SS Roms (when they are released)? Or do I have to edit every Trainers' Pokémon again then?

3) (Only answer this question when you've answered YES to question 1) I was trying to edit the Trainers' Pokémon, but it looked much more messed up, with every Trainers' SECOND Pokémon being at level 1 or something. Eh, it just looked messed up. Or was I doing something wrong?

Thanks!

I think I have the general format of the HGSS trainers. It is indeed different from the trainers of DPPt (So it won't work on DPPt Tools). And you should be able to use the same narc for the english granted that they don't insert trainers (that would cause all the trainers to be one later, messing everything up).

Tiling isn't going to be remotely possible in the HGSS maps. What may happen is dragging pre-made polygons somehow, but all this stuff is still in the works of those whose computers hate them...

Oh okay, so it's waiting for a HG / SS Trainer Pokémon editor tool?

Is it hard to create that tool?
 
actually we do have the stuff that nintendo used to make the games. some guy posted the tools they used for d/p and me and my friends tried running it. sadly we couln't get it to work cause we didn't have Maya and some other programs. all nintendo did was to add certain plugins and a .narc maker program. its probabally still sitting in the tools section of pokecommunity.
 
Do you guys know if it will ever be possible to edit the Pokemon order in the Johto Pokedex?

It should already be, I doubt it has changed much from DPPt. I previously located the file at 0/7/4

You can read about my findings on how it worked in DPPt here.
 
hey guys, how do you edit the text?and how do you turn it into a patch for the game?
 
>>>>>>>objet hack<<<<<<<

Ok i managed to change object colors
and textures!!!! :D
will post changed tex object later
 
How do you do that???!!! what did you use? hex, or some other program? and how'd you get nsmbd to work? tell me now!!!
 
Hey. Im not exactly new to hacking pokemon roms. Actually, check out my hacks of pokemon heart gold, soul silver, and platinum. Just Search this name ankrahman28 on youtube.

Im sorry that i am bothering you with this. I downloaded those back sprites you uploaded from heart gold and soul silver. But it seems i cant edit it with paint or Windows Photo Gallery. Which means I cant edit it to 8 bit i believe it is. Is there a program that allows you to edit the backsprites? Or can you tell me where the backsprites are located? Please?

They're indexed, just try taking a screenshot of them, and then just paste tthem into paint. Its easier.
 
How do you translate the game? I just want to translate it to Russian. (Oh, and from Magnius's translation hack)
 
hey i was just wondering if anyone knew of a evolution editor in the making the main reason I ask this is because it seems like you guys have got the pointers to the pokemon data (because of the gym leader hacking tool from Swampert) and someone in this thread said they were able to hack cyndaquil's evolution to be at a lower level (I think it was cyndaquil anyway) just wondering is all
 
Yes; it's called a hex editor. Seriously, pre-made tools aren't the only way to hack; evolution data is just a couple of bytes, so it's easily changeable manually. It's not like it's hard to find, either; I'd expect it to be in the same format as in D/P, so you just need to find the correct .narc and edit accordingly.
