Hi BlackAce! Nice too know you're interested in ROM Hacking.
As for your questions, the JPAN engine gives hackers direct control over many features, but it uses a fair amount of variables that can't be used in scripts.
It is possible to totally revamp all of fire red with new tiles. The tileset is divided into 8 by 8 tiles but tiles themselves are 16 by 16. Here is a good tutorial for inserting new blocks.

One thing to note about JPAN's engine is that it erases all scripts, so you're essentially starting everything over from scratch (no PokeMart sales(wo)man, no Nurse Joy, etc.). I don't necessarily recommend it for newer hackers (assuming you're new, that is), but if you want to try it, go for it.

JPAN's engine is in dire need of an update if you ask me. Hopefully he goes back and revamps some of this stuff.

Hi thanks for the reply, I read that tutorial and follow it. I successfully insert new block into my hack. The problem is the size, such as when i insert new stone or tree it is much bigger compare to the one inside original rom. Beside it is save to replace all original tileset to new one ?

I saw somewhere they stated the engine is bugged . Thats why I am wondering about it

It has bugs, but I think people have fixed all (maybe?) of them.

Is there a version patch with all solved bugs ?

I got another question. How Can I completely remove a script from the rom to use the space?or I just remove the event is enough ?

Get the offset of your script, open XSE and type #removeall 0x(offset) and hit compile. That will delete it entirely.

Sorry, I'm uninformed. I think you can specificly search for the solutions for some of the bugs though. The one I remember seeing is the healing spot one, but I recalled seeing others as well.

I want to know how I can create an event just like i step on a certain spot. A person event trigger and walk to me and talk ? is there global variable in scripting just like other programming , so that i can check what event had occurred .
