Oops. Sorry I missed you're post there! And Thanks, first piece of fan-male I had on this thread!
(Pun inteded!) :)

*blows a kiss*
 
I have a question, how do you get to the part where you start editing the script?
 
There is no built in editor in this program. You make you're script using notepad (There is a list of commands for pkmadv posted on my website) and then compile it either from the file associations (right mouse click in explorer - then click compile) or by running the program and using the menu's.

Instructions on the website!

If you use the file associations the program will run creating a .buf file. Open this and you can insert it into you're program!
Using the menu's in pokescript the .buf file will be opened automatically!

I believe this is the tool i've been waiting for a looong time!

EDIT: The introduction and "How to" on your site confuses me a lot...

Can you make a quick, easy tutorial on how to use this program, and how to insert scripts?
 
Ow boy.. everything is on the site !
OK.. maybe quick :\
1. Make your script using Notepad. Ones done, 'File » Save As..'
Chose 'All files' as the save type and save like something as 'yourscript.rbc'
(You can use an other editor as well, just make sure you can save as a .rbc file)
2. Ones it's saved, go to your script and 'hit' it with your right mouse-button.
3. A Quickmenu will pop up with an option 'compile' (Added to the registery by PokéScript) Chose compile..
4. PokéScript will pop up and compile your script, now you get a .buf file in the same folder as your script..
5. DoubleClick the .buf file and BufRite will open..
6. Goto 'File » Destination' and chose your destination file = your ROM
7. Push on an org (I hope you made your orgs like this: #org $Test or #org $Done) and then put the Assign button (It's next to the 'adress-bar')
8. In the Assign window select an offset where to start to look for free space.. then hit the flashlight(?)
9. Just select the first offset and hit 'Reserve'
10. You can do this with all your orgs, but I don't think you must.. (to be sure, just do it :P)
11. Goto 'File » Burn' to write to ROM
12. Well, I hope you remember the offset where your script starts ? Well.. goto AM and edit a people script-offset by this one.

ALL DONE.. Did it help ?
 
No Problem..

@Irish Witch:
Movements just don't seem to work with PokéScript..
Did you tried them + did they work (if you did) ?

Edit:
Plzz take a look here too.. maybe something wrong with the compiler ? :\

Hmmm... Okay... I this this might be a bug in bufrite!

~ There was bound to be one eventually......
I just compiled a basic movement script and for some reason when I look at it in hex ed the offsett is misplaced for some reason?

I'll get back to you on it shortly!

Ok, tnx..
Talking about BufRite.. I remember there where some strange characters at the end of the log :\

~Good Luck~
 
Ok. Updated

Fixed bad pointer pushing in bufrite. May also have been the cause of code not being processed properly as a result of if goto statements!

All it meant with applymovement is that the first item didn't get done. I suppose if you only had single items in your move script it would effect it badly!

----

And answering you're question Bufrite actually attempts to display the characters it's writing to the file in the log which is what those weird characters are. If you go into the pokewitch directory and look under 'Log' you'll see textfile versions of the logs created by bufrite and pokescript ordered by program and date/time.
In there you can read a full output and even see exactly what it's writing where!

I'm pretty sure I made a directive to turn this of if you want to.

- EDIT -

Dare I say it. Pokescript now apears to be stable and Bufrite just had a bugfix and it's the simplest part of this software.
(Pokescript took nearly 6 months to get to the point it was before posting. Bufrite was made within a week!)

*Crosses Fingers*

Happy coding pe-op-el-ees!

IT WORKS ! Yihaah.. and it was only my second script ^^

Only 1 thing now.. the items..
I know they are hard.. but.. can you fix them ? (Or is something in my script)
 
Back from a round... Now for a scripting round I guess?

Hmmm!

- UPDATE -
My bad. Bug in the command database.. either re-download, or change the giveitem alias manually to read like this
alias giveitem $1 $2 ' copyvarifnotzero copyvarifnotzero callstd
addparm 7 copyvarifnotzero ' Command Name
addparm 1 #8000 ' Raw Data
addparm 1 '$Val ' $Val
addparm 7 copyvarifnotzero ' Command Name
addparm 1 #8010 ' Raw Data
addparm 1 #8001
addparm 1 '$Val ' $Val
addparm 7 callstd ' Command Name
addparm 0 #00 ' Raw Da

I'm so confused with this scripting thing. Can some one give me a beginners tutorial for scripting rather than an Advanced one?

Go back to the ROM HACKING thread and into tutorials. The "Advanced Scripting tutorial" Thread is what you need. It's not really all that difficult. Read it from the beginning. Look at what other people do and say. The trick is knowing that you have to combine Advanced Map with a program like PokeScript or scripted and simply...

... Give It A Go!
Play, experiment! The only way you learn is my messing up!

:)

-EDIT-
Opps I thought I was in a different thread....
Correcting Post!
