Tool: [Release] AdvanceMap 1.95 Open Beta

I have two questions: one -when editing wild pokemon, how do you differentiate between what Rod they are found with through fishing?
two -I'm confused as to how to edit their rarities. What does "Encounter Ratio" specifically mean? also what does the expand button do?
 
@swiftgallade46
1) Doesn't it clearly show you the rod type's encounter ratio? I mean the first two pokemon slots under Fishing rod pokemon show Old rod as 70% (1stpokemon) and 30% (2ndpokemon)
2)you cant edit them. And the encounter ratio is just how often the pokemon appear percentage wise

I love Advance Map... except every thing is upside down.
Other than that its been really helpful.
My maps will not stay together, but I'm probably the blame for that.
Keep up the good work though, nice beta nonetheless.
Do you have a scripting tool I could use?

It's upside down? I think this bug was reported way long ago, and a fix was achieved, maybe.

Also-- in the toolbox is XSE, and PKSV. I would not recommend unleashing the Hell known as Pokescript. :)

Actually, I know the reason of this:
You're using a Mac. A-map works best on Windows. Try using it on Windows or something instead.

Or he could just let us edit the amount of Pokemon that show up in the ini file, like you can with Wichu's Sprite Editor and Pokemon Game Editor.

That would undoubtedly be easier XD. I was only suggestion the above because it's in keeping with Lu-Ho's general philosophy of keeping the programme working with all ROMs at all times, because A-Map would automatically work out how many Pokémon it would need to cater for as soon as the ROM was opened.
 
I keep getting an error that says " ERROR: (ENOTAPointer)AdvanceMap Error(5): value $810A05 is not a Pointer! " (the offset shown is different everytime I see the error) can someone tell me what this means and how to fix it? :S

I have two issues.

First one is with adding new maps. In Pokemon Emerald, I added new maps in 0.57, 0.58, 0.59, 0.60, 0.61, 0.62, 0.63, 0.64, 0.65, 0.66, 0.67, 0.68, 0.69, and 0.70. The problem is when I load these maps in-game, map 0.57 is always displayed, no matter if I warp into 0.70. I looked into the professional header, and noticed that these two highlighted values are always the same in these inserted maps. All the other maps have unique values, with the exception of PokeMarts, PokeCenters, and a few repeated buildings.

The second issue is with saving and loading blocks for TileSet 2. It seems as if it saves only the first TileSet Blocks, even if you tell the program to save TileSet 2 Blocks exclusively. This in turn makes me unable to import TileSet 2 blocks, so I have to make the blocks manually. Not a big problem like the first one, but just a minor annoyance.

Anyways, keep up the good work.
 
I'm sorry if someone has asked this already, but I'm having some problems saving with advancemap. I'll save my changes to my map, but when I load the rom they won't be changed and upon reopening the rom in advance map the changes will still show up. What's baffling is that it used to save them perfectly fine, but suddenly started being defiant. Even saving the whole of the rom in another location leaves me with the same results. The edited map opens in advancemap, but not in the rom. The only thing I can think of that I changed is that I had to switch how VisualBoyAdvance saves because it refused to allow me to save my data in-game, but I can't imagine that would have any effect and changing it back did nothing. If anyone knows how to fix this, it would be most appreciated.

My senses tell me that something is wrong. It could be that I'm using WINE to run it. Does anyone know if this works on the windows 8 dev preview, because I will be installing that soon.

i used to run it on my MAC with wine but that only happened in the movement permissions i didnit bother with that because i got my PC(i mean the computer) working again so you should find a better version of wine or get a PC (i like MACs and my MAC and PC are connected to the same hard drive:)

Thank you so much LU-HO you have made making connections 100 times easier.
But what do you mean when you say you can "insert tiles". I thought you can do that in the old advanced maps also?

What he means is that you're able to create a entirely new fresh blank tileset instead of inserting it manually and wasting space the down part about 1.95 is that you can't insert tiles any other way then using paint.
 
I'm so confused. All download links take me to this "no-ip" thing and it's basically just a worthless search engine style advertisement fest. I never have this problem with any other downloads for programs either.
 
I tried the link...some problems;
Mcafee tried to block it, so I turned Mcafee off.
When I went there, it redirected me to a scammy-looking web browser overloaded with ads, so I closed it all down.
^I'll try the .rar file download.

EDIT: Worked just fine for me~ YAY

Thanks so much, I love this program~ ^^
 
Just saying, please fix the link, I think the site is down. Got this error
