Changes in red, deletions in yellow.

I had to assume that this script was made for XSE, as many of your commands are constructed for it yet you were using boxsets. I've had to restructure it more than I would have liked, because if the player clicks no when the Professor asks "Would you like X?", not only would they not recieve the Pokemon but the script would continue and remove their chance to get another.

The green part of the text is an addition that (While not necessary) I'd stongly advise adding. Make the professor ask something along the lines of "So, which Pokemon do you want?" so the player has some context as to why a multichoice box suddenly pops up in their face.

Also, consider starting from #dynamic 0x800000

Hopefully this all works out :D

i did that and now the script is not showing the text for what the professor is trying to say and also for the line "multichoice" it is asking me if i wast 4 different tms what bytes do i need to use for the three pokemon to show up in the multichoice box?

thank you guys for all of the help

Why is it when I have Advanced Map open and pick a trainer and open their script in xse, copy and paste their script to word pad so i can change what they say and then go through the process of burning it to the cd with the new offset, then paste it into the offset for that same person in advanced map, i get crazy numbers letters a symbols when i talk to them?

 

[DeepKickSavior]

Hmm Long Time No See Pokescript but Im Pretty Sure Its 0x142

Don't Forget Closeonkeypress without that boxset 4 wont be closeable

This didn't work, when I put in HEX # 0x421, I got a ?????? Pokémon.

I prefer not to use XSE because all the tutorials I watched and learned with were for PoketScript, and XSE changes my scripts around so I have no idea what they are talking about TT-TT I guess I'll just learn to use XSE, but in the meantime, how would you put Sableye into a Give Pokémon script (for XSE)?

0x421 (a number in hexadecimal) is equivalent to 1,057 in decimal (the numbering system that you're most familiar with). Seeing how there is no 1,057th Pokémon, the game gives you a ?????????? Pokémon. Learath2 said '0x142', not '0x421', and you should use what he told you to use.

Hi i'm using XSE and Advance Map and trying to script all the people in an art gallery scene. Ive never used XSE before but because it is good for editing scripts and can be opened on A-Map i am trying to learn.

Anyway this is the script

Spoiler:

#dynamic 0x800000

#org @entrance
lock
faceplayer
msgbox @amber 0x6
release
end

#org @amber
= Welcome to the exhibition. I'm Amber and\nthis was put together with the help of the\lLogan Park curators club.\pI hope you like it

and the problem is that whenever i talk to the sprite she faces me but nothing happens and i can just walk away, this only happens once and i have to double tap A again to get her to face me but there is still no text.

Thanks

My only suggestion is to use msgbox 0x2 (msg_face) instead and remove the faceplayer command. You can also try removing the lock and release commands - they don't seem to be necessary for simple dialogues.

[FANOFFIRESTARTERS!!!]

Need help with my script Idea!
My idea is to have someone say something at random, yes I know how to do random numbers. But the difference is, a script tile would set the flag that corresponds with something the person would say, so that what the man says could be different each time you play, so if someone good at scripting is willing to help me please leave a VM.

 

[joshblevins]

This script is supposed to make the professors walk up to me notice me and my rival are getting attacked by some pokemon and then tell us quick take a starter we take a starter and then the script ends.

He walks up to me then when he is supposed to ask what starter we would like he instead asks me what tm i want then if i choose any of the four a picture of houdour shows up on the screena nd then it freezes. any help would be greatly appreciated

Hello (first sorry about my English, I'm Dutch),

I want to make a wild battle script. I have te overworld of a Lugia. I make my wild battle script in PokéTronic, because I'm not very good with scripting. But when you fight with the Lugia and the fight is over he's not away... How can I make a wild battle fight, that when the fight is over that the Pokémon is gone?

I'm a beginner so maby someone have a tutorial or a easy script or something?

Need help.
Trying to compile script. It won't work.
Using XSE

Says I need to define the perimeter for "giveitem 0xD 0x1 MSG_OBTAIN"
In the tutorial, it doesn't say that. I don't get it.

 

[SKRoy]

What's wrong whit this script?:


#org $start
lock
faceplayer
cry 0xA1 406
#raw 0x33
pause 0x30
message $cry
$cry 1 = Grrrawwhh!

pause 0x60
fadescreen 0
removesprite 0x800F
setflag 0x1211
pause 0x10

release
end

In XSE I get:
Fout 13 'type mismatch' op lijn 1.
Geen #define of parameter.

[Collen]

I don't think that's an XSE script. It looks more like a PKSV script. But, anyway, in XSE you need

#dynamic 0x(offset here)

#org @start

In the tutorial, it doesn't say that. I don't get it.

There are some .RKC files that come with XSE that translate other scripting tool commands so XSE can understand them. You will have to use the preprocessing directive '#include std' (std is the file that translates MSG_OBTAIN) at the beginning to make this script run in its current format.

Otherwise, you can replace MSG_OBTAIN with 0x0 and still have the same result. MSG_FIND can be replaced with 0x1.
