Question! Advance Map (1.95) is accepting new tilesets from me but! I cannot change the palettes no matter what. I have seen tutorials where there is a nifty "Write Palette changes to ROM" button but this does not appear on my Advance Map (As it does appear from other tutorials to appear on 1.95). What is preventing me from changing the palettes?

EDIT: More information on the problem, the tiles I would like to use come in a patch but that patch over writes tilesets I really want to use. That is why I want to manually insert them. On the patched rom I can change the palettes on other tilesets without any problems.... so what is the problem?

Use 1.92, it's widely considered the safest version. It also has the button you mentioned.

You might want to look at the "Things to note:" section of MrDollSteak's post you posted the link of earlier. That might help with the other tools.

I did read, and tried that, but no luck. I'll try again the next day I have time to recombine each way of doing this.
 
Three questions:

1. I'm using g3hs after expanding the amount of pokemon. But when i try to add a sprite from Turtwig or Magnezone (probably doesn't work with other gen 4 and up pokemon, haven't tried though), it gets all glitchy. The palettes don't match the original.

2. When i try to use advanced sprite editor, it doesn't want to co-operate with my fire red rom with expanded pokemon or with Mr.DollSteak's rombase.

3. When i patch my fire red rom with Mr.DollSteaks's rombase, the option for expanding pokemon disappears. How do i fix this?

Sup guys.
I tried finding it in Google, other hacking sites, but no luck.
Does anyone know the offsets of the palettes of both Kanto's Pokédex and the National Pokédex (Fire Red)?
 
Now that I am a bit further into the development of my ROM hack more questions must be asked!
First: Are there any patches that only add Sinnoh Pokemon for Fire Red?
Second: I would like to activate the National Pokedex at the start of the game, how would I do this?
Third: In Fire Red, from the start I know that any new evolution additions from other games are disabled (EX: Eevee to Umbreon/Pichu) Are these evolutions enabled with the national pokedex?

1 - Don't know. Also interested.
2 - https://www.pokecommunity.com/threads/349355
3 - Yes, man. Tested.
 
I'm having trouble with the advanced sprite editor. When i try to add the sprites i want to use, their colours don't match the original. This goes especially for the back sprites.

Still doesn't work.

When i try it on Magnezone, both the front and back sprite appear like that.

Edit: Apparently, it was glitching because i though i had to resize the image to 64x64, i'm such a fricking noob xD

Double edit: Welp, naturally another problem occurs. Turns out, the sprites are supposed to be 64x64. I guess the problem is the resizing. I'm tried resizing with both paint and photoshop, both ended up in a glitchy palette mess. Any idea on how to solve this?

You should index the palette with Irfanview or Photoshop, as I think that's your problem right now.
 
Hey guys! Hope you're all fine 
Would you mind to tell me if there are roms with Kalos pokémons and mega evos?

I know that some have mega evolution but I didn't find an hack with all Kalos pokémons
Thanks in advance!

There are no ROMs with it. You will only find IPS patches here.
There are patches in the Tools/Tutorials/Resources section for ROM bases with all the Pokémon in them, and you should check out Touched's Mega-Evolution thread in the Research & Development section to make sure any of those patches actually use real mega-evolution rather than faked mega-evos. Of course, you can also get more information on how to implement your own mega-evolution in Touched's threads as well.

Is there a patch that adds all Generation IV Pokémon to Fire Red?
