Tool: YAPE (Yet Another Pokemon Editor)

I got this message when I tried to open my ROM:

Cannot load ROM. ROM configuration not initialized.

Odd, seeing as I have and there was no virus. In fact, hundreds of people have downloaded this and not had a virus. It is probably a false positive.

It doesn't have a virus, I downloaded it twice before :).

Relax.
It's a false positive.
Lots of people use this program...

lol, no virus. You probably have a super sensitive virus scanner. Trust me, I use this program all the time, and have downloaded it 3 times now, and no problems ever happened.
 
Hey Om3GA, have u ever thought about taking on the "legacy" of YAPE (although u would have 2 make something like it from scratch)? Just a thought...

P.S.: BTW, the program works fine swampert249, so please don't be overreactive... It's scaring the other members...

Nope, I don't think I will.
I was never too good at tool making, and that seems more like a project for someone who is better at making tools. (I am not very good at it, nor can I actually make tools anymore, I got rid of VB6...)
 
Sorry if this has been answered before but I am in a rush by my brother. I cannot open a rom on it. It always says that the file does not exist or is unreadable. Is that fixable?

EDIT: FIXED IT! It has to be in the same folder =P
 
Do you know another tool to edit text description for pokemon?
After i edited some Pokemon with Yape, and now i can't open it.

Items help

I downloaded the softwae just a week before, version is as seen 0.9.
First of all awesome program.
Emerald: I tried to put a master ball in 1st slot to be with rattata. But it didnt worked. Does the master ball be first introduced in the game before any pokemon can carry it in the wild? Also can I give it to a starter?
I played the game a little than tried changing the data like types,attracks,evolution(tried turning torchik into a gangar and it worked LOL)etc then tried the game and it worked but not with the item things.
I then tried to put the item first and start the game again from the start but in vain. Can it really change the item a pokemon is holding?
Please ans. even if U dont know the ans or I would be checking for your ans for weeks.

ps. I even tried it with FireRed but is having the same problem

It can't change things, like if the starters are holding anything, BUT, it can change what pokemon in the wild might hold. The problem is actually catching the pokemon and seeing if it has that item, try doing that a few times...
(Masterball? Really? Sounds kinda cheesy...)

Look into the help file. The slots that change what a pokemon are holding work, but they are percentages that the pokemon will hold that item; The top one 50% of the time, and 5% of the time for the bottom one.

OK thankx for all your help.I'll try that.

*Have a wonderfull week ahead*
 
INVINCIBLE!

it is possible to turn your poke invincible using YAPE.
step 1:Go to the pokemon you wanna change (only do this to a pokemon that can only be found or obtained more than 1. otherwise, wilds will be invincible) in the YAPE pokemon list after you picked a ROM.
Step 2:go to the type and ability section.
Step 3: change pokemon you want to be invincible's type to ??? (it will be at the bottom) and change ability to wonder guard.

??? pokemon type has no weakness, and thanks to wonder guard, he cant even be hit.
 
Wow! I just got back into ROM and Hacks from a while ago and this tool, Silver, very nice! You can really do almost anything using it!

Just one question, is there a way to make Ability %'s on Pokémon with two abilities?
