The problem is that nothing happens when I talk to the Person. It just makes the "bleep" sound.

That's weird, should work. Looks fine to me. Just tested it out in my ruby hack (make sure you fix your @q message because it doesn't wrap .. maybe to " It looks like someone lost their\nbag! Would you like to search it?")

But yeah it worked for me just make sure in AdvanceMap, you're putting the offset on the right person event. Literally, in this case all you need to do in advancemap is find your person event and paste your offset 800020 to the script offset.

le proof

I used a different offset, but I completely copied and pasted your code and it worked.


My best guess: you didn't put the right offset on the right person

 

[277772]

The offsets did not match. I have a video showing whats happening, but I can't post it(I haven't made 15 posts or more)

Thanks gogojtech after installing the newer version of XSE and compiling, the script worked!

I have a little problem with a script in my hackrom, and I wondered if you could help me solve it...

What this is supposed to do, is say its dialogue, then make the screen go black, remove the sprite I'm talking to and another sprite that is in the same map, and clear two flags to make two other sprites in another map appear. However, what happens is that, after the dialogue, I get a black screen, I get a red cursor and get to select one of two or three invisible options, and after I select either one the screen either fades back to normal but there are a lot of characters in the screen that do not disappear unless I use a warp, or the black screen stays. Also, the script does not make the sprites disappear or reappear. Help, anyone?

Ok... Tried your script, but the game just stops working. It does not even show the dialogue :/. Oh, and are you suggesting I should change the flags? Do you think that may be the problem?

Yes, you can't use extra flags without Jambo's extension!

Does anyone here know what the XSE command is to check the pokedex? Have looked at oaks aide scripts but cant figure it out. Thanks!

It's probably a special, not a command.

Does anyone here know what the XSE special is to check the pokedex? Have looked at oaks aide scripts but cant figure it out. Thanks!

Also, how do I check for a certain move? And is there somewhere I can find the move numbers in hex?

 

[Edan]

So I just figured out how to make a hidden item work (using Emerald), and I was wondering if anybody has a list of unused Hidden IDs for hidden item scripts. I couldn't find a list anywhere on the internet, and it's kind of necessary to avoid having two hidden items share the same hidden ID and screwing up the game.

I apologize if this doesn't actually qualify for script help, but I think it's close enough.

checkattack in XSE, and in the XSE ini, go to the bottom it says:
STD=1
STDItems=0
STDPoke=0
STDAttacks=0

Set each to =1
then in XSE do
checkattack ATK_POUND for example

Sorry, but there's only a list for FR. You can just use flags from scripts you deleted. That makes them free.

HELP
Hello, I am attempting to create a new hack and after hours of tutorials on youtube and reading different blogs/ threads I am left with a few unanswered questions and would greatly appreciate it if I received positive feedback with good answers.
1. How am I going to be able to change the way the game pans out?
as in the events within the game through advance map and xse ect.

2. Am I able to alter the way the game starts?
as in when emerald begins the player starts off in a moving truck can
I change that and if so how?

3. Am I allowed to add a firered map to an emerald rom in advance map editor? and
if so how?

4. Am I allowed to have 2 sets of gym leaders?

5. How do I know the sequence of my scripts within the game? From what I see and
interpret it feels like the game will not change we only change what they say and look like. But for example on the hacked rom pokemon light platinum he had two regions two sets of gym leaders and a completely original story. What do I need in order to do that?

It will help if you can assist me with any of the 5 points. If you know just 1 or 2 of the 5 please post it to help me out. Thank you for all of your help.



EXTENSION,

It's probably a special, not a command.

If it's FR then it's flag 0x828.

When both 340 and 34B are true then it should function as a normal Mart. However, the item pictures are fuzz and the descriptions extend beyond the box. The only items that work are the TM's. What did I do wrong?

You most likely corrupted the Mart routine. You can't fix it unless you know where it is. That happens when repointing to un-free space. Also, using a-map 1.95.

I get this all the time. For some reason, you must use 5 or 7 instead of 3. When 3 fails, go with one of the other two. It works.

 

[Avara]

Does anyone have any idea what could be wrong with this script? What's going wrong is the question yesno box pops up, but it just repeats itself and doesn't go to the pointers no matter which option you pick.

The script is supposed to:

Give the player an option whether they want to take the quest
Give the player an item only once
Wait for a flag to be set ie item delivered
Give the player a pokemon and money as a reward only once
Then finally say something generic when the whole quest Is done ie flag 1003 is set


Thanks
