[Script] Legendary Encounter Script issues

[BirdstarCat13]

(original post info, outdated but keeping it makes the early replies make sense):

Spoiler:

I'm trying to set up a battle in Pok?mon FireRed that lets the player get Mew, and I've got a script made from an example I saw in a video, but I don't know if this is correct or what exactly everything does. I'm also wanting to use Mewtwo's theme as a placeholder (I am not smart enough to make custom music for MEw and Mewtwo is close enough)

I haven't tested it yet (because I'm deathly afraid of crashes and I also don't know how) but here's what I already have:


#org @start
lock
faceplayer
checkflag 0x1213
if 0x01 goto $done
cry 0x97 0x2
#raw 0x33
pause 0x30
message @cry 0x6
playsong 0x156 0x0
waitkeypress
setwildbattle 0x97 0x55 0x0
setflag 0x1213
release
end

#org $done
message @mewkeeper 0x6
release
end

#org @cry
= Myuuu!!

#org @mewkeeper
= You've already earned my\ntrust, [player]. No need\nfor more fighting!


Any tips?

Updates:

I'm trying to set up a battle in Pok?mon FireRed that lets the player get Mew, and I've got a script made from an example I saw in a video, with tweaks so it works in new versions of XSE. I'm wanting to use music from RSE (which is still in the FR ROM, but not even AdvanceMap knows how to view it) to make it more customized and unique, but The music is the only thing that doesn't work. I've got the script functioning - I got it imported and I get the Mew encounter, and even hacked the offset that makes Mew act like a teenager with his random naps, ignoring, and slapping himself for no reason not obey the player (I don't remember the thread or the offset, sorry :( ) and on top of that, edited the shiny spawn rate to make a shinyhunted mew reasonable for casual players, but I still can't make the music work. When I use the playsong command with a valid ID (I've tried both of the music pieces for Deoxys, I've tried Pallet Town's theme, I've tried all four generic encounter themes, etc.) it still uses the wild encounter music. I have not gotten it to play any other music. My current script uses Deoxys' theme and I even used a "special" command that people in this thread said should work. It didn't and it still uses the wild theme no matter what order I put things in relative to the playsong command, or what ID I put on it.

Here's my current script, that I have in my ROM right now:

'---------------
#org 0x800023
lock
faceplayer
checkflag 0x1213
if 0x0 goto 0x8800039
msgbox 0x8800065 MSG_NORMAL '"You've already earned my trust,\n[..."
release
end

#org 0x800039

special 0x138
playsong 0x157 0x0

#org 0x800065

#org 0x80005B

Any ideas as to what dumb noob mistake I'm making? :P I'm honestly completely stuck here.

Could be wrong here but why not open the script that is run when you encounter mewtwo? You could theoretically copy the code, change a few things and be done?

Yeah, I saw that as a suggestion with Mew's script in Emerald while looking for methods of customizing the music and making flags/pointers work...after I already got most of it working, and was able to make the actual battle work correctly. At the current moment all I have to do to get the script just as I want it is the music, but

a) I just refuses to be different from the regular wild Pok?mon theme, even if I use something 100% random like the GB heal theme, it still uses the regular wild encounter music.
b) I can't find the values for RSE music anywhere (as they are ID'd in FRLG) - no one has made a list showing all of FRLG's music yet. (There are a lot of claims, but they are only the FRLG stuff, they don't show the unused RSE music)

So...apparently..."setwildbattle" DOES work...and is the command you need to make the custom music work...

Did you ever figure it out? I'm having the same problem but whatever I do, nothing works, the sprite never goes away.

LMFAO! This isn't a script that is meant to make the NPC leave, as you can tell by the segment where you can talk to it after the battle lol

Try special 0x03B
playsong 0x157 0x0
before wildbattle
and remove special 0x138

What's the difference on th specials?

Thanks for the info! Here's the newest version of what I've come up with - purpose is the same (encountering Mew) but the order of the sections has been changed to try to resolve the double encounter glitch while taking the advice above into account:

'---------------
#dynamic 0x800000
#org @start
lock
faceplayer
checkflag 0x1213
if 0x1 goto @encountered
cry 151 0x0
msgbox @fight_me_bitch MSG_NORMAL '"Myuuu!!"
special 138
playsong 154 0x0
setwildbattle 151 13 0xC8
setflag 0x1213
release
end

'---------
' Strings
'---------
#org @encountered
= You've already earned my trust,\n[player]. No need for more fighting!

#org @fight_me_bitch
= Myuuu!!

Edit: XSE keeps replacing the first MSG box with a "braille2" command, which crashes. Maybe don't replace my commands with different ones that crash? (yes I'm on the latest version)

 

[BirdstarCat13]

Did you try not using special 0x138 with your current script?

that's the one that was already there...

 

[BirdstarCat13]

I'm saying:

special 138
playsong 154 0x0
setwildbattle 151 13 0xC8

Isn't that going to make two battles happen because setwildbattle calls a wild battle? I don't know right off hand.

Well, using the order of the commands that you suggested, using special 138, did fix the double encounter glitch, but trying to talk to the NPC after the battle still doesn't work...
