Script Help Thread (DO NOT REQUEST SCRIPTS)

I'm new to scripting and I am trying to make a script for getting running shoes. However, when the script is finished, everything is fine except that I don't get the running shoes effect. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You need to add the setflag for the running shoes effect, which I believe is
setflag 0x82F

But since I'm not hacking Firered, that might be a little off. Look at the original script to make sure you're setting the correct flag.
 
Hmm how come my script works perfectly until the last apply movement? For some reason on the last applymovement 0x3 doesn't do 800909

That pause is an extremely long amount of time, try bringing it down a little.

If pause is not in hex, which it is, that would be 3 minutes and 20 seconds. In hex that is 512 seconds. You do the math.

In case you don't want to, that is 8 minutes, and 52 seconds.

Yeah but then the text comes in right away. I want it so the text will only start once both players have stopped. Then after the text 0x3 will move up until he's offscreen, and then he'll dissapear.

Well, take it down to 0x3C, that is 60 seconds. That should be enough time. If you do not want to wait a minute, bring it down to 0x1E, 30 seconds. Pause only applies to applymovement from what I have gathered... If not, then I have no clue.
 
Allright I just fixed it, now the only problem is trying to get 0x3 to move cuz for some reason he won't.

Could you elaborate a little more on that? I put Setflag 0x82F in it. I just don't know how to place everything correctly.
 
Would anyone happen to know how to make yourself face forward rather than down right after a warp. My character always looks down after a warp i make rather than forward how i want it. I want his back facing away from the screen rather than toward right after a warp.
 
Could anybody tell me why the last applymovement isn't working?

Uhm, I'm trying to work out a tide script for a beach. So the tide will come in and go out at diferent times.

However, it can't be clock-based as I'm using FireRed. Omega Arsenal suggested using the players total footsteps or the total time played. But how would I do this? Can anyone help or give ,me a link to a useful tutorial?

I've been wondering about that for myself for a while now, but I don't think I ever figured it out. I would try examining an instance where it occurs. More likely, it is a map script. Try using scriptdec to view the scripts.

Sorry, I have no idea how to manage XSE.

I would suggest doing a random feature, which I think is raw 8f... If you insist on the step counting, I can give you a sample of how to use it. I myself have not scripted in months, so I don't remember, but all I know is that this script uses step counting for collecting berries off a tree. I think it goes somewhere between 100-200 steps. Again, I would highly recommend using a random script.
Oh, and 0x81e034 represents 'release' 'end'
Code: 
#org 0x8664EF
special 0x0187
compare 0x800D 0x0002
if 0x01 call 0x81E034
special 0x0188
compare 0x4025 0x01F4
if 0x00 call $nothing
message $berry
$berry 1 = It's a berry tree!\pHey, there's some berries on it!\p\v\h01 picked the berries\hb0
boxset 6
setvar 0x7030 0x0101
setvar 0x7033 0x0106
giveitem 0x8b 0x3
setvar 0x7030 0x0106
setvar 0x7033 0x0101
setvar 0x7030 0x0129
setvar 0x7033 0x010A
#raw 0x6B
special 0x0197
end

#org $nothing
message $berry1
$berry1 1 = It's a berry tree!\pThere's nothing on it though\hb0
boxset 6
release
end

Thanks foullump, but how would I construct it? I'm still fairly new to scripting.

Hmm, after reading foullump's post, I agree with him, a random would work... but it would make the tides go in and out at random, not like on a schedule, like in Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald...


If you would want to use a clock, you would need to use R/S/E...

But before you do any of this, you may want to start with the basics.
Go to the toolbox section of the site, and download HackMew's XSE tool.
(Found in the thread called HackMew's Toolbox.)
Get that, open it up, and read the guide that comes with it.
It is an extensive guide on many of the things you need to know to become an intermediate scripter.
It might seem boring at first, reading from begining to end, but trust me, knowing all of the terms, and the way the tools are used, really helps out in the end.

I mean, it would be much better to learn how to script for yourself, and be able to think, "Wow, I just made this all on my own, I feel proud of myself."
Wouldn't that be nice? ^_^
And I don't suggest using PokeScript, a bit of advice foullump, you might want to take a crack at that guide as well, learn XSE, it is similar to PokeScript in some aspects, and it might be easier for you to learn it, since you have some scripting knowledge!

Well, I can see, that you are still trying to use PokeScript, even if you are using XSE...
XSE does not recognize PokeScript, since XSE uses what I like to call, 'XS' (eXtreme Script)
I suggest you do the same thing as the other 2 people addressed in this post, make sure you have the NEWEST copy of XSE, and you take a good long look at the guide.
I'll fix this particular script for you, but after that, I'll only fix XS styled scripts, okay?

Your Script, in XSE form:

Im studying the scripts near the beginning of pokemon Ruby. I cant find the level script or script for:
When your mom brings you over to the tv cause its showing petalburg and then she sits down
And when your rivals mom greets you and tells you their son/daughter is upstairs

Does anyone know where those scripts are located and what activates them (level script, tile script)?
 
Got it working nvm. thanks though
