[Script✓] Script compiles but doesn't work properly.

I want the player to be able to grab the running shoes via an item ball on their desk. The script works in that the shoes are enabled after and the fanfare/fade screen happen, but for some reason none of the text appears. Anyone have any ideas?

Spoiler:

#dynamic 0x800000
#org @start
lock
faceplayer
checkflag 0x200
msgbox @talk1 0x6
setflag 0x82F
fanfare 0x13E
msgbox @talk2 0x6
waitfanfare
msgbox @talk3 0x6
closeonkeypress
fadescreen 1
hidesprite 0x800F
setflag 0x200
fadescreen 0
release
end

#org @talk1
= I almost forgot my Running Shoes.

#org @talk2
= \v\h01 put on Running Shoes!

#org @talk3
= Now we're ready!

Not too experienced myself, but pretty sure having that checkflag makes it so some stuff wouldn't get executed. Try deleting that command? It doesn't look like it does anything in your code.

I'm not an expert on scripting, but here's what I came up with (edits have comments after them, comments are bolded and can be removed if you want tp use this.):

#dynamic 0x800000
#org @start
lock //Removed checkfalg because it didn't seem to be useful. Removed faceplayer becase it's not useful on scripts that are for a "hidden item" ball.
msgbox @talk1 0x6
setflag 0x82F
fanfare 0x13E
msgbox @talk2 0x6
waitfanfare
msgbox @talk3 0x6
closeonkeypress
fadescreen 1
hidesprite 0x800F //removed setflag becuse the checkflag wasn't really doing anything anyway (if you wanted it to be used, then do checkflag, then an if statement comparing the value)
fadescreen 0
release
end

#org @talk1
= I almost forgot my Running Shoes.

#org @talk2
= [player] put on Running Shoes! //I don't know if what you had was "technically the same thing", it's personal preference which you want to use I guess. (also depends on if you want it to be "Player put on Running Shoes" or just "Put on Running Shoes.")

#org @talk3
= Now we're ready!
