Scripting Tutorial - PokeScript

[DeadlySplash]

Thanks for the tutorial =D
Thanks to you, and some dude asking a question about Yes/No scripts, I FINALLY have a working Yes/No script xD

Now I have a question : In the giveitem script, how would I make it so that a sprite disappears after you get the item? For example, an item ball lying on the ground. Once you pick it up, it dissapears. How do I do this?

 

[Khalil]

Can somebody help me with my script?

trainerbattle 0 1 $MadChall $MadDefeat $MadAfter
message $MadTalk

#org $MadChall
$MadChall 1 = Ashraf: You're going down Khalil!

#org $MadDefeat
$MadDefeat 1 = Ashraf: Next time, I'll win!

#org $MadAfter
$MadAfter 1 = Ashraf:Dude you already beat me\nwhy are you still here./nKhalil:So I can rub it\nin you face\pAshraf:......

yet nobody tries to help

 

[Gramisaur]

I was having so much trouble getting the hang of scripting but this has really helped me out more so than the other tutorials on it so thanks!

Just one question. Can I somehow edit an already exsisting script and change the name of an item?
Say the 'Boulderbadge' in FR Brock gives you. Even if you change the trainer sprite and name etc you still get that at the end of the battle.

I need help with the movements. I want professor Oak to come up from the bottom of the screen, like in FR/LG, and me follow him downward 7 steps, then left 6 steps, then up 1 step and through the door.

I'll only respond to a few questions, cause these should be asked in the script help thread.

To make a sprite dissapear, you need three #raws.

#raw 53
#raw <Peoples Number>
#raw 00

There are major flaws to the script, you don't even have a #org at the start of the script!

I would recommend revising.

You would need a different script,
The badges are in flags, so you would need to wewrite the script and make it a specified flag to get a different badge.

You would need a checkflag at the beginning, and a setflag at the end if you wanted it to not happen over and over.

To make the script continue in another map, you would need to do a level script, So that would be a bit tricky if you haven't experimented on a spare rom before.

You might need to add some movements aswell.

hi, nice tutorial, i have a problem though. Whenever i right click my code file (written in notepad and .rbc at the end) it doesn't come up with 'compile' in the sub menu, any help please?

Did you save it as "All Files" instead of "Text Files"??

 

[Qwerty-117]

Where can i download Pokescript and PkmnAdv?
I couldnt find them anywhere with google, they all came to here.

 

[mcdooby]

Hey everyone im new to the forums and very new to scripting and i was wondering if u could help when i do this:

Click save as
type in the name of the script, and at the end put .rbc
Now, click file type, and scroll down to All Files.

Go to your script location, right click and click "Compile".
Your script should open in Pokescript and then BufRite should open.
Some offsets should be listed, click the top offset and click Assign.
The window should change, click File -> Burn. Find the offset at $begin and write it down somewhere.
Open up A-Map, load the map you want the script inserted.
Click the person and there should be a box that say's: Script Offset, insert the offset there and save.

You've succesfully inserted a new script!

I get up to click assign and i get a new window which is an open file window im not sure what to do next cause i haven't got an offset for the script and if i select a pkm rom i click assgin again uncheck reserve i get a 0 next to $begin if i don't uncheck reserve i get nothing so can anyone help please because i would really like to learn how to script and i know this is a really noob question so sorry and thanks in advance

 

[Vegeta™]

Hey i just did that but when iload the rom up then go to talk to that person it doesnt allow me to talk to him.

You have to klick file-destination before you klick on the blue symbol, then this window will not open anymore.

@knight: If I don't know what script you used, I can't say what the problem is.
Try this:

#org $begin
lock
faceplayer
message $1
$1 1 = I am a man...
boxset 6
release
end

If your script is right but doesn't work, you made a mistake when compiling it into the rom.

First Test

Im trying to do the oran berry test. Works fine until after I receive the berry and try to talk to person again it freezes.

Here is my script.

#ORG $ShowScript
Lock
Faceplayer
Checkflag 0x200
if b_true go to $Alreadygot
message $Getitem
$Getitem 1 = Do you like oran berries?
Boxset 5
compare LASTRESULT 1
if 1 goto $yes
message $no
$no 1 = Thats too bad.
Setflag 0x200
boxset 6
release
end

#ORG $Yes
message $Hereyougo
$Hereyougo 1 = I only need 1.
boxset 6
Giveitem 0x8B 0x1
Setflag 0x200
Release
End

#ORG $Alreadygot
message $Onlyone
$Onlyone 1 = I need this other one!\pDon't be greedy!
Boxset6
Release
End

You shouldn't really come to this tutorial, as i've abandoned it.
Why do you write every command with a capital at the start? :S. It doesn't matter, it's just annoying to me.

Anyways, your only problem is that in the Alreadygot script, boxset doesn't have a space between the 6. Just a small mistake. It sometimes happens, so go over your scripts well :).

 

[qwerty10]

Didnt Work

1. I use capitals because I used Irish Witch's tutorial first.

2. Where do I go if I have a question about scripting.

3. It did not work putting the space between Boxset and 6. Although I think the problem is that when I'm going through the steps to put it in my rom, on the part where you click burn, it says put an offset for Berry.go and I dont know what to do so I just put anything. (The name of the file I saved for Notepad is Berry.)

 

[BakingBluePotatoe]

okay, how do you make it so when you walk on a certain spot, and a person says something then walks onto the screen to the player? (Yeah, bassically like the oak script)

 

[Toorchic]

Is there a script that gives you the pokemon if you win a battle?

Also, how do you define the trainers pokemon?

Thanks

 

[Dr Gregory House]

hi,
i made a script using scriptED where a man gives you a totodile.
When i load the rom, i get a white screen.
What's wrong?

#org 0x811111

FacePlayer
MsgBox Hi \v\h01\! Take this\nTotodile!
BoxSet 0x6
GivePokemon 0x208 0x7 0x0
