Just can't get it to work

What do I put as the person ID?
Ok this is what I did.
1. Used the script generator to make the script.
2. Hit f9
3. put the script offset to 0x200. Now what?

 

[NarutoActor]

yeah put pesone ID 0200
okay did you get it yet

 

[Mkmaster2400]

wait so whats the script offset? this is the script
#dyn 0x740000
#org @start
special 0x187
compare LASTRESULT 2
if == jump 0x81A7AE0
special 0x188
lock
faceplayer
checksound
cry RAYQUAZA 2
waitcry
pause 0x14
playsound 0x156 0x0
battle RAYQUAZA 15 POTION
setflag 0x807
special 0x138
waitspecial
clearflag 0x807
special2 0x800D 0xB4
compare LASTRESULT 1
if == jump 0x8162558
compare LASTRESULT 4
if == jump 0x8162561
compare LASTRESULT 5
if == jump 0x8162561
setflag 0x200
release
end

What number is the script offset? the 740000?

Yes, I am an XSE fanboy, but only because it teaches you things, not does everything for you.
/discussion

I have yet to see anything learned from XSE that can not be learned as easily, if not more easily, from PKSV.
Having a script generator provides easy access to common scripts, and should not be relied on. However, you can still reverse-engineer the generated scripts and learn from them.

Also, 0m3GA, try PKSV for a little while... you will like it. (See the Flag Skeleton 2 in the script generator for one of my favourite (from a programmer's PoV) features.)

yeah but for a quick script its oaky thats why they have generators

And is also why I added, for example, the quick starter script for testing a hack, and the flag skeleton scripts. I take almost all script generator suggestions (rejecting only those that are just not common enough to warrant quick pasting everywhere).

I tried doing script for entei now and I used the script generator, battle pokemon , but when I decomplie it all it says is a bunch of raw 0XFF lines and then crashes. Do I have to put #org @start in the first line in the decompling box

Spoiler:

#dyn 0x8750000
#org @start
special 0x187
compare LASTRESULT 2
if == jump 0x81A7AE0
special 0x188
lock
faceplayer
checksound
cry ENTEI 2
waitcry
pause 0x14
playsound 0x156 0x0
battle ENTEI 50 NONE
setflag 0x807
special 0x138
waitspecial
clearflag 0x807
special2 0x800D 0xB4
compare LASTRESULT 1
if == jump 0x8162558
compare LASTRESULT 4
if == jump 0x8162561
compare LASTRESULT 5
if == jump 0x8162561
setflag 0x223
release
end

this is all gone when you decompile it and gives a jump 0xFFFFFFFF I don't know if I'm doing something wrong with the dyn# in the offset box or what.

You're most likely putting the number in "#dyn" in the offset box, judging by the sound of your post - you're meant to put the number given to you when you compile it, in a dialog box.
Off the top of my head, it goes something like this:
@start <-> 0xReal-offset (0x1234 bytes)

What do I put as the person ID?
Ok this is what I did.
1. Used the script generator to make the script.
2. Hit f9
3. put the script offset to 0x200. Now what?

Eep, you were meant to set the person ID to 0200, not the script offset to 0x200... To get the real script offset of a dynamic script, see my last quote. The person event number (NOT person ID) should usually not be changed.

 

[Mkmaster2400]

It just shows up as a person on my game and When I try to talkto it, the music stops and I can talk to it and run around at the same time. This is confusing. Its just getting me mad. I have no Idea what the problem is.

Wait, would the script offset be 0x740000? if it is, do I put the 0x? or just the 740000?

 

[NarutoActor]

yes its a pesone event... theres scipts lines like play music 0x
if you can move then you didnt right the line lock all or lock player

 

[Mkmaster2400]

I guess I should just give up now. I still can't get it to work.

This is your exact problem. You don't need the 0x, but that offset is wrong. #dyn does not put it at that offset, it puts it in free space after that offset and tells you where the real offset is when you compile it.

Ok this the script after I hit f9

So whats the offset?

 

[NarutoActor]

0x7400DC
thats the offset that starts the script

 

[Mkmaster2400]

Edit:

I finally got my first script working! Thanks for all the help guys!
Now to try harder stuff. What other scripts should I try?

great!! hope I was able to help try working on a movement script

 

[Rocket Grunt Kyle]

okay, im stuck again! I can't make those darn pokeballs disappear. I make the flag in the flag list, i add the flag in the script during the generator part, and i set the person id. The message that says i got the pokeball stays on the screen until something else comes up, and the pokeball stays there.

it spunds like you didnt end the message try using insted mesage NO_CLOSE

 

[Mkmaster2400]

Ok how do I Get a trainer id to make the trainer battle script?

 

[NarutoActor]

open pet or another tranier editer and it shows all the tranies have an ofset like 12E so script would be traner battle 12E 0x0 0xofset 0xofset

 

[Mkmaster2400]

But what would you put in the person id box? This is the last script I want to know how to make for now.

 

[NarutoActor]

well you could but nothing its only for if you want to activated a flag like after wining making the pesone disapear or reapear

 

[score_under]

Person ID can remain as "0000" for anything that doesn't need to disappear.

 

[SharpPoint]

Person ID can remain as "0000" for anything that doesn't need to disappear.

He speaks the truth. For things that need to disappear, set the person ID to something else and use setflag to make them disappear.
