did you type it in XSE like this:

#dynamic 0x(FF offset)
#org @start
lock
faceplayer
msgbox @pointer 0x6 (or you can use any of the following)(1,2,3,4,5,6,0,A(emerald only))
release
end

#org @pointer
=(text goes here)

is that helpful? =)

 

[Satoshi Ookami]

Here's detailed walkthrough :D
1) Write script (I suppose you already did that)
2) Compile it (Tools - Compile in XSE)
3) Copy the offset that XSE shows for @start (it's 6 digit number in hexadecimal form which means also A, B, C, D, E, F can be there)
4) Paste that offset into "Offset" bar in Advanced-Map. In offset bar of person or tile script =)
It's all =)

I have a question..

is it possible to make a wild battle can't be avoided?
i mean, we can't use the "Run" command in battle.

For example :
i want to make a script to battle pidgey and you can't run from the battle...
So you have to KO the pidgey in order to make the script continue.

Please someone help me and tell me how, thanks

look through the script in r/s/e where you pick a pokemon out of treeko torchic and mudkip. it might show you how to. but the bad news is that it'll flee if you pokemon's hp gets low.

Well... the one from R/S/E use "special" flag from the rom,
and the problem is i'm hacking a Fire Red ROM :(

but still.. thanks for helping aperso :)

oh well exept for the r/s/e way there's no way of doing it. i'll find out if it can be done with asm though

 

[brotherhl1440]

Is there a way in scripting to edit the Start Menu? (changing what the Pokedex/Pokemon/Save does and word)

nope no way of doing that with xse. but you can edit the description using a-text

 

[brotherhl1440]

Oh okay, thanks for the response, :( I want to change more than the words

I think both of you need ASM for your requests...
At least for Menu changes yes.
But the wild battle that cannot be avoided can be done (not really done, guess we can say it's way that can simulate it).
You can make wild battle as trainer battle with pokemon sprite.

Well.. i've think about it too.. but if you run, there'll be a text that say:
"No running from Trainer Battle" <-- lol how to change that ?

And from the name too.. it'll be "Trainer Pidgey wants to Battle!" lol..

Oh well.. anyway.. thanks Ash493 :)

I've got 2 things on my mind now.. I hope there'll be a solution soon :(
1) How to make wild battle unavoidable / we can't run from battle
2) How to make the hero use bike over water (by hack, not by cheat/GS/AR)

Well, actually, you could use a text editor to replace that text tomake it say something different, couldn't you, to make it more normal (such as "name here" is blocking your way", and "Cannot run now")

well i could tell you the second question but it has nothing to do with scripting.

Banjora already answered that. =D

You can change one of the trainer classes (through A-Text for example) to e.g. Pokémon =)

1) We pretty much answered this =D
2) Just make the water place "C" in movement permission =)

You could've told him instead of this post =D

Yeah! I forgot about that XD Thanks Banjora and Ash493 :)
But i have one more problem with this..
When the battle start, the Trainer sprite (Pidgey for example)
will sent out another Pidgey from a Pokeball..

it will looks like this:
WILD PIDGEY would like to battle!
WILD PIDGEY sent out PIDGEY! <-- this is the problem...

1) We pretty much answered this =D
2) Just make the water place "C" in movement permission =)

Hmm.. i think that's not it..
because what i want is i can move over water by bike..
and not by walk..

because the movement "C" will also make the hero walk over water..

 

[Satoshi Ookami]

Well yes, if you are that thorough about things then you have to wait if someone else knows how to do it directly.

Hmm.. i think that's not it..
because what i want is i can move over water by bike..
and not by walk..

because the movement "C" will also make the hero walk over water..

Of course :D You cannot bike somewhere you cannot walk :D (with the exceptions of special tiles in Emerald/Ruby/Sapphire)
And if your map has biking allowed it's all cool =D

how about you overwrite the surfing sprite with the biking sprite?

 

[pokegear2]

Well.. before you surf you have to have a Pokemon that know surf,
and right before you start surfing, the pokemon sprite will appear...
(just like any other HM..)

Of course :D You cannot bike somewhere you cannot walk :D (with the exceptions of special tiles in Emerald/Ruby/Sapphire)
And if your map has biking allowed it's all cool =D

Ah.. so it's impossible ? :(
But there's a gameshark that can make it do so.. :(
i though the gameshark can be changed with certain script.. but oh well..
Here's the gs code (maybe it can help.. or maybe you can try) :

Spoiler:

72036E3C0100
32036E430000

My plan is to make a jetboard that can pass the land and the sea :D
*jetboard is the bike of course XD

I hope there'll be solution to it :)
And lastly i'm sorry if i'm going a bit out of topic :(

Hey

I used to be a scripter. Then I was gone, now I'm back and trying to get back to scripting. Only, when i open A-Map, at the script offset of a person event, there are 2 extra characters! Normally it would be something like: $800000 but now it's $80000000

The worst thing is that XSE doesn't give 2 extra characters, so I can't implement my scripts, any ideas? I have A-Map 1,95 btw.
Thanks
