Sierra's MEGA-HUGE XSE Scripting Tutorial

[Giratina the master]

Why does when i make a trade i says unknown word givepokemon

 

[Sierraffinity]

Uhh, is there no way to get an earthquake in FR/LG?

There is. Check under the Specials section.

 

[s270171]

okay, regarding level scripts.
i got confused when you said it needs three parts...example maybe? I don't know... maybe its just cuz i dont really understand the point of variables...
could someone explain that too?

by the way love the tutorial. It got me soooooooooo far

oh and a regular scripting problem.
when I give the item TEACHY TV it will go into my bag but when I try and use it the screen goes black and it freezes. Is there something im missing?

 

[NTA]

is tere a list of fanfares i can use?

 

[rednano12]

Thanks for the great guide! With this and Hackmew's included guide, I think I am starting to get the hang of scripting. I was wondering if it was possible to get a list of fanfares?

 

[Sierraffinity]

Sorry, but I don't have a list of fanfares.

 

[LunaticHigh]

For hidesprite, can you use it to hide the player's sprite?
If you can, what do you put for the person id?

Can someone help me with this script i'm really new to scripting but i still have read almost every tutorial but no matter what this scipt doesn't work the way i want it to

im trying to make a scipt so that once i enter a new area outside
Prof Oak runs up to me shouting my name with a "!" above his head then walking 2 steps down in front of me and his Prof Oak theme comes on and then he says about 2 paragraphs of text(i know how the \p \n \l works so i got that right) than before we battle the track goes to the ENCOUNTER 4 theme and than we fight(i gave him pokemon in A-trainer)with Gary's Elite Four theme.

the problem is whenever i step on the script either nothing happens or the game freezes and i already changed Var number and Unknown to what the tut said.

and when i talk to him myself the game freezes

but when i make another person with the same script as the Prof Oak i made
and talked to him then it works but then the 1st Oak does the script i wanted him to do but no battle occurs, the music doesn't change and then

i deleted and added some stuff to the script but can someone please tell me what script do i give to Oak and what script i put on that green S mark

this is what it says on the Green S
I opened the script and copied and pasted it here.

please correct any mistakes

I didn't look into your script too much but I can point out a few errors that might be messing up your script.
Changes and stuff are in bold.

You should also put this in the script help thread :X

 

[triplexh18]

thanks

I got it to work

 

[NatureKeeper]

Thanks to this tutorial, I won't be needing scripters. I can script now, thanks for your efforts.

Ok, guys. I've got a problem.
I've made a script so that if I don't have a certain pokemon(for this example, Pikachu), the guy will not move aside for me. I've used a checkpokemon script. However, if I don't have a Pikachu, the "Not allowed" message comes fine. However, when I DO have the Pikachu, he doesn't follow the applymovement, and top of that, the GAME FREEZES!

Here is the Code, please proof-read it for me; the last time I did anything related to hacking was 2007 and only for like a month; I've forgotten everything I knew and now have to relearn everything to also match with the new tools and the updates everyone is releasing:

[machomuu]

Oh, I misread the script, sorry :P.

 

[ElusionM]

Thanks guys/Diego! However, one more problem:

Now the script works, but I can click on the guy again, and AGAIN he moves back. I tried doing it so the script is IN FRONT of the tile he is on, rather than on himself, but now everytime I step on the tile, the script executes, and he moves even yet again!! To the point he's standing in other mountain tiles; which is fake looking.

I realize I need to use the 'setflag', but can you add it to the script to show me how's it's effectively done?

And what's wrong with this script(I know I'm missing good chunks of commands). When I step on it, it's supposed to be EARTHQUAKE, but instead the game freezes:

'---------------
#org 0x1F0FE0
special 0x136
msgbox 0x81F0FF0 MSG_NORMAL '"What!? What was that?"
release
end


'---------
' Strings

#org 0x1F0FF0
= What!? What was that?

 

[s270171]

level scripts.
how do u make it so that you can do more than one in the entire game. when i follwed your instructions it worked, but i could only do the one script. how do you change the script offset of the level script so i can make two of them?

 

[HackinJohn]

Seeing as this script has been giving me a nightmare for the last two days, would someone like to offer any assistance? ;D

Before I go and show it off, here's what I'm *trying* to make happen:

Player comes through warp, and as soon as they step out of the cave, he is noticed by the leader of an evil organization. The leader walks over to him, talks to him, and then scares the player out of the way, and he disappears through the warp the player just came through.

Here's the script: (I'm sure there's plenty wrong with it.)

This is meant to be a level script based on what you said, right? If it is, try this:
