  • Hello there!

    Today, I want to present my first tool. I hope you like it ;D



    Technical data:
    • Name: Multichoice editor
    • Creator: javi4315 (me xD)
    • Languaje: Español/English
    • version: 1.0
    • Functionality: Fire red
    What is Multichoice editor?

    Simply, this tool is used to edit the options of fire red's multichoices. Maybe, someone asks: "What is a multichoice?". Okay, this is a multichoice:
    Spoiler:


    The options of the multichoices can be changed with some Hex editor, but really you like do it? Are you sure? See:
    Spoiler:


    Have yo changed your mind? xD. Okay, now, using this tool, everything can be summarized in:
    Spoiler:


    Okay, this is my tool. I am not a professional but I try do something interesting ;D

    I mean something. Also, you need XSE by hackmew (or other script editor) to compile the new texts.

    Download!

    *NOTE: I think it is possible to put direct donwload's links here. If I'm wrong, tell me.

    Tutorial

    How to change multichoice's options.

    With this tool, you can change the options easily.

    First, you must open Multichoice editor. Now, go to editor and find a multichoice that you like. For example, I will choose the namber 22, this:

    multichoice.png


    It has three options (Fresh water, soda pop and exit). Now, you must open XSE and compile the new texts. In my case, I will compile three new texts: Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. So I will compile this in XSE:

    #dynamic 0x800000

    #org @text1
    = Monday

    #org @text2
    = Tuesday

    #org @text3
    = Wednesday

    XSE should display the offsets. In my case, are this:

    800050
    800059
    800063

    As the multichoice has three optiones (in my case), I have only put these offsets in the first three holes in the editor (important: The offsets must be prefixed with 08). So would be:

    1. 08800050
    2. 08800059
    3. 08800063

    And only need to click "edit". E voila, multichoice's options are changed:

  • I commend you on your start on creating a rom hacking tool. But I think you should try incorporating your own text compiler, and the ability to add more slots for mutichoice boxes.

    Yeah... but I don't know how to do that sort of thing (text compiler). In fact, I am not very good programming T_T

    But I will try to be better, but will be difficult, because I have no tutorial...

    You could read the string character by character, match it up in a character array that's order is the same as the character order in pokemon from 00 to FF, and write it's position in the array as a byte into the file. You could also read a string by reading each byte, get the byte's position in the array, and getting the char at that position and adding it into the result string. Tutorials can only get you so far, you also have to get some thinking done on your part.
