[Other✓] Offset confusion. [ANSWERED]

[Oddball20007]

I'm trying to do some simple test with several tools as I plan to take up ROM hacking, however I have come across a problem that I can't solve on my own.

I use Advance map (1.95) and Score_Under's PKSV_UI.

Heres where I'm confused

Spoiler:

Advance maps Script Offset:
001E8022

SCRIPT:
#org 0x81E8022
'-----------------------------------
msgbox 0x81E8ACF ' If you use a PC, you...
callstd MSG_FACEPLAYER ' Builtin lock/faceplayer
end


#org 0x81E8ACF
= If you use a PC, you can store items\nand POK\eMON.\pThe power of science is staggering!

So if I read correctly the Offset is where the script is stored. Yet I don't see anywhere in the actual script that says the Offset. Help?!!

I'm not sure what you're trying to say, but the part in the script that "says" the offset is the top part, #org 0x81E8022. Perhaps you're confused by the number 8 in front of the offset? The proper offset is the 6 numbers after 8, when you're scripting, even if you don't type in the 8, everything should work fine.

As Spheal said, there's your OFFSET.

Uh... way to make me feel super dumb. I noticed that they were the same, but the first couple numbers confused the hell out of me. Welp! Thanks! :D
